The Boys Season 4 Premiere Review

The Boys Season 4 premiere, reviewed by Matt Donato. Narrated by Ronny Barrier.

The Boys Season 4 slinks back to basics in a less-than-impressive but still substantial three-part premiere that hinges on dilemmas that have been part of the show from the very beginning. Butcher’s motivations have always been narcissistically bleak, and his Boys have often paid the consequences, but Season 4 heaps the heartache on even heavier. It’s back to the drawing board, but no one erased the original formulas. Season 4 is off to a stable start under Nice Guy Butcher’s shot-calling; I just wish the show didn’t taste like microwaved leftovers from a bomb-as-hell dinner.
