The series The Boys received a reputation as one of the industry's biggest events right from the start. Ruthless violence, mockery of mainstream superhero media, and frightening realism became a breath of fresh air for viewers.

Eric Kripke, the creator of another major hit, Supernatural, who took the helm of the new show, once again seemed to have struck gold. That lasted for three seasons, and then something happened. The fourth season came dangerously close to the phrase "a dog’s dream", while the fifth and final season unexpectedly repeated the fate of Stranger Things or, more precisely, turned out far worse. Before release, the creators actively mocked the controversial ending of Netflix’s flagship series and openly hinted that they would never make the same mistake. Let’s break down just how badly we were all deceived.
