I find Eric Kripke using atrocity in a realistic setting a welcome change from the same 14 plots endlessly recycled by most other programs. It’s not MEANT to be for everyone and I think those who tune in know something jarring is part of it’s make-up.
Using a baby who has X-Man Cyclop’s power beam vision as an aimed weapon? An Aqua-Man style character having a physical affair with an octopus? Homelander, based on Superman, casually pushing his son off a two story roof expecting the kid to fly like he does (he doesn’t).
While waiting for Season 4 to be wrapped into one package (I won’t watch any series piecemeal) it sounds like it’s reached it’s ‘jump the shark’ point of suicide via Political Correctness. What a shame.
I haven’t watched episode six yet. We had a tornado come through here on Tuesday, and our power was off for 24 hours. Our internet didn’t come back until Friday morning. I’m still catching up with all the programs I missed earlier in the week. Enjoy season four when you get around to watching it.
