    The boys season 5. It’s the final, most unhinged season of the most unhinged show ever on TV. And it’s absolutely amazing. They try to make it as bat-shit crazy as possible, and then somehow reality finds a way to make it just seem timely, even if it was written more than a year ago.

      The Boys Season 05 Episode 03 spoiler

      Kinda insane timing with the bad AI picture of Trump as Jesus IRL & Homelander / Jesus moment in the show. South Park doesn’t even have that quick turn around time.

        Right?!? That was fresh in my mind as I was typing it, but there’s been other things too, I’m just too tired to name them. I wanna say Jan 6 was one? They had to put a disclaimer before the ep.

          Didn’t they also have to delay an episode last season because the whole plot was an assassination on the president, which was due to air like a few days after Trump got shot in the ear while campaigning.
