Rating Summary
Subtlety was never the The Boys' milieu, but as the series has diverged further and further from the source material, more of the burden of balancing its gross-out humor and obvious political bent with hard hitting thrills and terrifying consequences has fallen on the shoulders of writers who are either no longer up to the task or never were. Unlike the purpose driven action of the previous seasons, season 4 feels rudderless as its flood of subplots compete to be the show's main focus, and the writers substitute creativity with Right-bashing and deconstructing the patriarchy.
