Comment on Antony Starr is glad ‘The Boys’ is ending: “I don’t like seeing things outstay their welcome”

For example, ether mines? Everyone in the town huffing ether and in some bizarre capitalist cult that used child labor? The fuck?
Why is that filler? Unless I’m wrong about which episode you’re referring to, which I doubt.

It was five minutes worth of content stretched into 45 minutes. It was boring af. We learned that she >! Designed the concept of severence.

So you know where the series is going then? Because that would be the only way to know that nothing else in that episode will be relevant.

Watching someone take a nap and breathe heavily and directly into their microphone in a soap opera style episode is not good.

Maybe try putting your phone away and watching it again. Maybe it’s just because I was paying attention to the dialogue, and I know what ether is, but I thought the episode was just fine.
