That is not surprising given some of his public behaviour

Good season though! xps

what kind of public behaviour, if you'll excuse my ignorance?

I’ve been watching. It’s not better or worse than past seasons, but I feel myself just getting kinda tired of it.

Had not heard anything about Starr or McElligott before

Starr assaulted a 20 year old dude in Spain, glassed him in the face iirc.

That sucks. He’s really fantastic on the Boys.

As fun as The Boys is, it is becoming relentlessly grim and on the nose with it. The fact the showrunners (apparently) feel like some people aren't "getting it" means this season has way lamer overt U SEE stuff, like the line about not teaching "Critical Supes Theory" made me cringe.

BUT. The flying sheep with fangs is the most hilarious thing Ive seen in ages so that made up for it.

I was both intrigued and put off by the marketing for The Sympathizer a few months back—intrigued by the story, put off by the RDJ stunt casting. I didn’t rush to watch it, and then I heard almost no buzz for it beyond the first episode so whatever enthusiasm I had for it waned pretty quickly. Fast forward to earlier this week when I was casting about looking for something to watch and impulsively tried it out. And… I thought it was great! Just finished the last episode. The lead guy held it together and kept it compelling as it zig zagged through a lot of different tones.

I still don’t quite know why Robert Downey Jr had to play 5 different roles, but as stunts go he was a pretty good stuntman.

the book is excellent, highly recommend

book and show are both great, though I felt RDJ was the weakest link (as much as I liked the basic idea of all the characters he played representing the various modes of Western imperialism). Show also did well in fixing some of the iffy-er parts of the book eg the main character’s relationship with Lana, which came across as weirdly creepy and inappropriate in the novel
