Have watched three episodes so far, quite like it. Very dark but canny.

Episode I was last watching my wife came into the room when a superpowered female is riding her landlord and literally blows his head, her reaction “WTF are you watching” :lol:

When superheroes abuse their superpowers instead of using them for good, The Boys embark on a heroic quest to expose the truth about The Seven and Vought, the conglomerate that covers up their dirty secrets.

Got that brief synopsis from Google. Sounds interesting.

Not sure what Simon Pegg is bringing to the show yet. Plays a very minor part for the biggest “star” in the show. Maybe a favour, adds a bit of comic book, geek boy credence?

In the original graphic novel Hughie’s likeness was based on Simon Pegg....

Taken off The Boys trivia on IMDB

“American actor Jack Quaid plays the part of Hughie in the series. In the original comic book, Hughie comes from Scotland and his physical appearance resembles English actor and writer Simon Pegg. Pegg was "super chuffed" to be "immortalized as a comic book character" and also wrote the introduction for The Boys Vol.1 collection, "The Name of the Game". Pegg is also known for his role as Montgomery "Scotty" Scott in the rebooted Star Trek (2009) film trilogy, alongside Karl Urban who plays Doctor "Bones" McCoy. Karl Urban stars as Billy Butcher in The Boys. Pegg was originally supposed to play Little Hughie when the comic was made into a movie or series, but because it took so long to make the jump instead he will be playing Hughie's father”
