You have to establish a status quo before you break it; otherwise, change loses its impact. The show’s got a planned 5 season arc, so my guess is that Homelander fully snaps in season 4 and takes over most of the world, followed by the Boys finally killing him in season 5. Or maybe they take down Homelander at the end of season 4, and the fifth season is all about the Boys turning on each other from within.

I do agree that the season 3 finale was sloppy as hell though, but as long as they do permanently shake up the status quo in season 4 (which seems extremely likely to me), most of the flaws of season 3 will be very forgivable for me.

I don't watch it but I do check in on the plots and man are they wild. >!Last year they all got superpowers apparently and this year they all traveled back in time to the 50s when the original Archie comics were set. There was also a multiverse story at one point that involved Sabrina and witches.!<

The sheer ridiculousness makes me consider watching it a lot but reading the Wiki recaps works just as well I've found.

Reply to Wondering who has appeared in the most sketch comedy shows? by GamblerShinobi

"Keeping in mind, I'm not talking about who has been in the most sketches, I think that would go to Keenan Thompson from his long career at SNL and All That."

The Red Skelton show was on for 20 seasons, 1951-71. The primetime show finished #4 in the annual Nielsen ratings in 1951-52, #7 in 1969-70, and in the top 20 thirteen other years. Skelton was in every sketch.
