Wasn't the spinoff gonna be called Varsity? Going with a different name or is Varsity something else?

Looks awesome. Like an uber-violent X-Men: First Class. I love The Boys series and can’t wait for more!

Looks grosser than The Boys. I’m okay with that though.

I thought this show might be unnecessary before I saw a puppet get his head torn off, spine and all. I'm in!

Looks good, but never did finish the The Boys, whichever the last season was. I guess I stopped watching it the season right before Jensen Ackles shows up. Superhero fatigue and all that.

You should finish it up. Thought the last season was easily its best one.

I'm not sure about this. Seems pretty much like a cash-in, using the license, a few tiny supporting characters, and hiring younger cheaper cast. Has kind of the cheap, knock-off feel of the New Mutants movie. Of course I could be wrong (and hope I am -- I kind of dug The Boys).

Yeah I am pleasantly surprised by the very positive critical reception this show has received. I thought the show looked like Amazon's Agents of Shield, but glad to hear it's worth watching.
