The Boysseason 3set the bar so high that the next season will have a difficult time following it up. Season 3 did everything that previous seasons ofThe Boysdid — elaborate (and raunchy) set pieces, vibrant special effects, and unhinged Homelander scenes — but with significantly more style. Season 3 was by far the tightest and best-written season, with some fantastic character arcs, including Hughie and Bucther’s flirtation with Compound V and Starlight and Homelander’s fake relationship, that partially leads to Annie’s resignation.
The Boys Season 5 Confirmation Means Season 3’s Big Death Tease Can’t Happen Yet
The announcement of The Boys season 5 is great news. However, it means that a major character death first teased in season 3 has now been ruled out.
ForThe Boysseason 4 come close to the kind of reception of season 3 is a feat for the season. The hope will be that the audience perceives the season as well if not better than the critics, ensuring high viewership numbers for season 5. WithThe Boysonly having two seasons to go, hopefully the series will end with a well-received story.
