If you get a kick out of the opening theme, then good news for you, you should love it.
If you find yourself rolling your eyes, smirking, annoyed, etc, you may as well just turn it off. Because that opening scene is just the tip of the iceberg for how ridiculous this thing is.
My wife and I love it. This shit was must see from ep 1, and we're excited that season 2 has been announced.
I wouldn't really compare it to The Boys though.
Peacemaker is all hammy, campy, scenery chewing absurdity, all the time. The Boys has some of that, but it's still generally a serious show.
Someone mentioned the middle school humor, which is basically the entire thing, but it's all done in such a fun, earnest way with a ragtag band of ill-yet-perfectly fitting absurd characters that it just works.
I think there are some basic comparisons between the two, but they're very different overall. You'd have to add way more absurd humor and a thick blanket of warmth to the Boys, or strip those elements from Peacemaker to make the two comparable.
