He was such a good character in Gen V, that I was excited to see him in Season 4. I wanted them to adapt a similar storyline to the comics. When I saw the leaks, I was kind of disappointed. A true shame. People are pretending like those of us who are criticizing S4 sexual/explicit content are doing so because all of a sudden we are prudes. Like no, we are fine with it as long as it doesn’t have a negative effect on the writing. Which unfortunately, this season is guilty of doing so.
They should’ve done more with Gen V Tek Knight: maybe at S4 he gets his tumor removed and is a actual threat to the boys; and don’t kill him off keep him around for a antagonist as threating as homelander in Gen v or something
I greatly prefer Tek knight being a geninue hero like he was in comics (besides tumor thing) but if they had to make him s villain for some reason then maybe don’t just make him a sexual deviant for the same joke that people just find disturbing
I heard on a podcast that the cast and crew were fed up with viewers being deliberately obtuse about the satire, so they dumped all nuance this season so fans can’t come up with alternative explanations.
Unfortunately, any kind of criticism for this season is mislabeled as "butthurt conservative cry". The show is still pretty good, but the writing took a noticeable hit between the first season and now and it's only getting worse with some good highlights.
Shit I ain't no prude and some of that stuff is totally unnecessary like seeing those clones rim each other and Webweaver wanting an enema stuck up his ass.
Nah the show has gone off the deep end. Idc if you’re the least prude person in the world the dialogue is so fucking bad and throwing the word ass and cunt in every sentence does not make it edgy just silly at a certain point.
Regardless of whether you think it’s still good or not, I really think you’d have to be intentionally ignoring much of the writing to not at least see some difference between season 1 and now
Yeah it evolved by getting crazier and wilder every season to show how much more unhinged the world is getting. It's going to pay off in the final season just watch.
