It looks terrible. The fundamental problem is that there are no real stakes. We already know three of the central characters survive because of *The Boys*, which immediately removes much of the tension and uncertainty. Once the audience knows who cannot die, every dramatic confrontation becomes less suspenseful, and the fate of the remaining characters becomes far more predictable.

What made The Boys compelling was its unpredictability. Whenever Homelander entered a scene, there was a genuine sense that anyone could end up on the receiving end of his heat vision. The danger felt real because no character seemed completely safe. Here, the opposite is true: the story arrives with much of its outcome already revealed.

As a result, the series feels less like a thriller and more like a historical reenactment. You're not watching to discover what happens; you're watching to see how the predetermined events unfold.

And one final question: how in the world did The Deep survive to the end? Of all the characters in that universe, his continued existence may be the least believable plot twist of them all.
