lol sorry, channeling Billy. altho, here in Australia, "cunt" is pretty much a replacement word for "dude". samesies for our peeps across the pond (Urban is Kiwi but i think Butcher's sposed to be British right?). even wifey enjoyed it, and she's picky as hell about the shit she actually likes. Frenchie & Mothers Milk are the standouts for me, hands down my favs. the characters and the actors playing em. the airplane scene with Maeve and Homelander. dear lord, *that* shit disturbed me more than any of the blood and guts. The DEEP lol. dude was mostly played for laughs but he should have an intriguing journey ahead. that reverse-rape with the gills was somethin else. Starlight & Hughey are obviously the beating heart of the show, but whenever Billy has moments of emotional clarity and honesty, he kinda steals all the feels. Urban kills it. Homelander is played so fucking well, i *want* to be disturbed and terrified most of the time (and i kinda am cos he got them crazy eyes (not the lasers, just his regular eyes)), but a lot of the time i just give one of them super-impressed laughs every time he does some scandalous shit. just seeing that Dark Superman hypothetical come to life like that is literally awesome to see, and well...yeah, pretty terrifying. his takedown of the terrorist cell using nothing but his laser eyes? the ending too? how was Billy even meant to make a dent in that man?
glad it ended the way it did. it wasn't a *twist* ending, but a nice change of pace from what we might've expected (and thankfully not a "subverting expectations" style thing that D&D harped on about for GoT season 8). hope they get at least 10 eps for s2.
