Fans Outraged: The Boys Season 4 Making the Same Mistakes That Ruined Supernatural!

The first three episodes of The Boys’ new season are available on Amazon Prime.
Butcher and his gang do not give up on killing Homelander, the most corrupted Supe on Earth.
Eric Kripke, the showrunner, has previously confirmed that the fifth season will be the
final. This means that The Boys are facing greater challenges than ever before. The thing is, it doesn’t feel that way.

Season 4 Falls to Season 1 Level of Conflict

On the one hand, we are treated to crafty intrigues, which add to the show’s cynicism.
We’re reminded of how the media
manipulates the public and utilizes ordinary
people as pawns to advance its own
The Seven even recruits a local
propagandist, Firecracker, who broadcasts about how Starlight’s disciples are
corrupting children in basements.

However, by the third season, the antagonism between the Supes and the Boys has grown more manageable.
Previously, we saw the goodness in Butcher, Hughie, and others’ faces from an odd perspective: those who fight for a just cause
are frequently no better than those against whom they fight.
Now the protagonists are back at square one: complex, yet sincere in their desire to construct a better world by honest means.

Season 4 Suffers from a Lack of Fresh Ideas

In addition, the series continues to draw old dramatic lines. After taking the Compound V, Butcher has a few months to live: he does everything he can to get in touch with Ryan and win him over to the good side.
Kimiko remembers her childhood in the
biolabs and wants to punish the guilty. And Frenchie falls in love with someone from his
criminal past. In the third season, these characters already helped each other overcome their traumas. But in the absence of fresh conflicts, the creators artificially complicate the old ones.
Worst of all, the writers are trying to link even some of the new characters to the
familiar ones. For example, it’s not for nothing that Firecracker attacks Starlight in her broadcasts. It turns out that Starlight slandered her in a talent show when she was a child. Now the girl from Homelander’s squad wants revenge on the perpetrator, and that is literally her only motivation.

The Boys Season 4 Seems to Lose Its Grip

Hughie’s mother, who abandoned the family years before, also emerges in the plot. She engages in an excruciatingly long conversation on why she left the child with his father. The film feels more like a soap opera than a sarcastic satire, similar to Kripke’s previous work, Supernatural.
It is unclear why the authors placed so much focus on the drama. But, rather of being an adrenaline story, The Boys eventually becomes an exhibition of miserable people, with everyone competing to see who has it worse.
The Boys has long been popular among viewers due to the show’s hectic dynamics.
However, it is clearly clear that the fifth season would be the last. So we’d like to assume that Eric Kripke’s next show won’t suffer the same fate as Supernatural and will have an excellent finish.
