Gen V (2023)

Watchseries; I absolutely love Emma, the powers, grotesque violence, and I'm rare breed that enjoys stories about the young folks. I'm baffled there's more negative reviews the series is well directed, a superb connection to The Boys sure that series is superior but I love this for what it is! I've been into One Piece anime when I do watch shows which is masterful just nice to break from it. Assuming a lot of people don't enjoy the mellow drama new Generation I think it's interesting, well acted and intense in all the right ways.

Besides I love stuff about dark superpowers there's not enough of it out there to me Gen V hits the spot and I'd highly recommend! Stop hating on my review, I have autism/intellectual disability I enjoy things differently.

Gen V watchseries. I cannot fathom, in any way possible, that anyone would rate this show above 8.

This feels so weird to watch. You feel like it SHOULD be a good show, because it's set in the same universe as The Boys, right? But the more you watch, the more you feel like you're watching some weird teenage show , that the annoying girl from your old high-school class guaranteed you was sooo interesting. Kind of like Riverdale vibes (how was that ever popular??) And yet, you feel yourself drifting off into sleep, the more you watch.

I don't know man, I wished I like this, because The Boys is an amazing, innovative show, but this is just so half-assed and bad.

Please, just stop. Stop it now.

Gen V is what a spin off should be. I initially had my doubts. I wasn't expecting an incredible, mind-boggling, award winning show but more like a good, entertaining serial, and it delivers on that.

Has it's own personality without deviating too much from the original source. They really nailed their pacing, their characters had depth and the world was built quickly.

And it's not just dumb fun, it talks about a lot of societal issues in interesting ways and it feels like a breath of fresh air in the genre of teen drama. Definitely give it a watch.

I cannot wait for season 4 of the boys and season 2 of gen v.

I get that I am not the audience for this show and I should not have wasted the time to watch it, particularly as I found its progenitor so laughably bad in terms of writing, acting, directing and cinematography. This show is even worse apparently measuring its success on how many gallons of fake gore it can spew in each episode. None of the characters is particularly likeable although Moreau shows some promise if supported by a good script and competent direction. The others do have some good moments but they are too few and far between. The best performer is Patrick Schwarzenegger and his character is dead, which impacts his effectiveness.

I watched Generation V with a sense of anticipation, curious if it would boast any endearing characters or capture the cutting social satire that made its predecessor, The Boys, so compelling. Regrettably, it appears that the only common thread between the two lies in their penchant for shock value, sporadic action, and a hint of intrigue. In fact ironically it seems to take many of the things lampooned in the Boys seriously.

Is it entertaining? Well, in my opinion, it won't leave you utterly bored, but it's unlikely to evoke any profound affection for its characters or its world, nor will it really elicit laughter. If you do decide to tune in, it will likely be solely to follow the progression of the plot.

It's hard to imagine that a show like this, relying on the now shock tropes from the Boys as being safe, but here we are. The series adheres to the familiar tropes of a teenage action show, featuring spirited underdog protagonists who forge bonds and defy the odds within a flawed system, all while exuding an undercurrent of confused sexual desire. In comparison to other shows of its genre, it may surpass many in quality (it at least doesn't solely rely on sexual tension), but it fails to offer any significant character insights or compelling comedy. Whether you choose to watch it or not, chances are you won't despise it or love it. However, if you find yourself pressed for time, it might be wise to await a more compelling streaming option.

I wouldn't click on this if it wasn't related to The Boys. While it still has the insane crazy elements from The Boys, its story line is lacking substances and the cast doesn't hold a candle to The Boys phenomenal cast.

There isn't much interesting happening 3 episodes in. Just a bunch of insecure confuse young people with V trying to navigate their ways through life.

Apart from some random crazy scene just to shock you, there isn't much more to make anything interesting.

It doesn't help that they have pics of The Boys' Supes photos and statues everywhere, just to remind you how weak this cast is in comparison.
