MonoRants... The Boys

All good things must come to and end and we've already reached the end of Season 3 of The Boys. We have our usual chat about the season as a whole breaking down some of our favourite and our not so favourite bits, as well as everything in between. So jump into a rant about the fun in hating characters, Supersonic being the best nice guy ever, Fudgy Superpowers, that canon episode from Diabolical a...

It's Season Finale time and nobody is going to get out of this one unscathed (except for Todd, but dicks cant live forever). Butcher & Soldier Boy ditch Hughie on their way to Vought, forcing him to rejoin the rest of the boys with his tail between his legs. Maeve makes an escape of her own and joins the gang as they plan their attack on Soldier Boy. Homelander finally finds Ryan and sets abou...

In the penultimate episode of Season Three, Butcher, Hughie & Soldier Boy head off to find MindStorm, which leads to unexpected revelations for all three. Annie and the rest of The Boys try to figure out how to stop them, while Homelander goes Q-Anon in his public attacks against Starlight. Deep introduces a friend to Cassandra, A-Train is reintroduced to the land of the living and we are intr...

It's time for the main event. We covered all the lame plot and character stuff, now lets get to the sex! Only it wasn't maybe as depraved as Mono & Ciara expected. In part two of our Herogasm rant we talk Deep's new friend, Bluehawk's fitting end, Hughie being a bully, saying bye to a bunch of Supes, Kripke's first cameo and we decide if we just have no boundaries or if the orgy was actually p...

Well it happened again folks. We lost the run of ourselves ranting about the biggest episode of The Boys so far with Herogasm. There's a hell of a lot to cover in this episode so we decided to do a two parter. Join us for part one as we rant about Black Noir's runner, Homelander's mirror madness, Soldier Boy adjusting to modern life, MM on the rampage and Vic's chat with Annie. Then we get real ra...

Sorry guys, we got a little bit carried away this week in a record that originally was well over two hours. But we've left only the rantiest and best bits in of course, as we talk about how... Soldier Boy lands to the US with a score to settle as The Boys return having fallen apart. Ashley gets a promotion, A-Train gets his apology and Maeve gets a retreat in Malibu as Homelander plays big boss ma...

The boys head to Russia to track down the Supe killing weapon. Hughie sinks deeper into despair, Frenchie escorts Kimiko to a very special party and MM has a hard conversation with Butcher; before they finally get what they're after. But it comes with a high price. Over at Vought, Homelander almost has full control over The Seven, while Stan's attempt to get Victoria to discipline Homelander backf...

Homelander is on the offensive again now that his popularity is unexpectedly on the rise. With the slots on The Seven almost filled, he decides to throw a spanner in the works by bringing The Deep back. Annie tries to warn Supersonic about Vought, but may end up needing his help after Homelander publicly declares his love for her. The Boys gets answers from Mallory and Payback gets a backstory, wh...

Hughie struggles to deal with the fallout of his discovery as he digs deeper into Neuman's past, while Homelander's birthday goes from bad to worse to terrifying. Butcher, Frenchie and Kimiko hunt down Soldier Boy's old Payback teammates as MM breaks down over his obsession but gets some unexpected support and direction. Deep gets a movie, A-Train gets ideas, Annie shows Supersonic how to make wav...

A year has passed and a lot has changed. Hughie runs The Boys as the enforcement arm of the FBSA under Victoria Neuman; and in an effort to promote a more wholesome image, Vought are promoting Starlight to co-captain of The Seven. Butcher visits Ryan and then gets two visitors of his own, while MM adjusts to a new family life. Victoria also gets a visitor who leads Hughie to discover his new job i...

One last time before Season Three, MonoRants... The Boys is jumping into the back end of Diabolical. This was definitely the stronger half overall, with one obvious exception... As usual, spoilers and references to other animated shows abound in this rant about upsetting animal deaths, John DiMaggio's Groundhawk, Canon episodes and a very obscure reference to a very special train station. We'll se...

MonoRants... The Boys is back (in town?) to get our teeth into some brand new Boys content with Diabolical. There's a lot to unpack in this animated anthology series, so we've gone full spoiler as always, and are splitting it in two. Part review, part breakdown, all rant; we're talking everything we loved, some things we didn't, and obviously commenting on Ashley's fashion choices.... It's good to...

It's bonus episode time; because we love talking The Boys and just couldn't help ourselves. Join us for a review of all seven 7on7 segments from Vought News Network. We talk world expansion, new Supes and once again make (probably) wildly inaccurate predictions for what will feature in Season 3. And that's it until Diabolical. We Think. Find us on twitter @rantsmono or send a message to monorantsp...

It's time for another season wrap chat and we're talking Season 2 of The Boys. Join us as we break down some of our favourite (sassy Kimiko) and our not so favourite bits (RIP Raynor), as well as everything in between. We even throw in a few predictions for Season three so you can come back in July to see how wrong we were. Find us on twitter @rantsmono or send a message to monorantspodcast@gmail....

Following the events at Congress the government are terrified, Vought are capitalizing, and The Boys decide on all out war. Annie might have a trick up her sleeve and the Church of the Collective try and push two Supes back into The Seven. Ryan settles in for a day of fatherly love, panic attacks and Nazi propaganda; but Becca will lead The Boys against Homelander and Stormfront to get her son bac...

The Boys team up with Victoria Nueman to build the case against Vought, Butcher gets an unexpected visitor, and Hughie tries to convince Lamplighter to rescue Annie. Stormfront and Homelander push more supervillain fearmongering, then top the day off with a little child snatching. We discuss the finer points of super self-immolation. Find us on twitter @rantsmono or send a message to monorantspodc...

Annie and the Boys head to Sage Grove where Frenchie's past is waiting to catch up with him. Hughie's near death gives Annie and Butcher some common ground, while Stormfront comes clean to Homelander; but not before they get REAL dirty. One of us has absolutely no time for Frenchie's dead best friend. Find us on twitter @rantsmono or send a message to monorantspodcast@gmail.com

Hughie and MM head to suburbia to rescue Butcher from himself, and Black Noir. Meanwhile Stormfront is getting up in everyone's business and we prove ourselves to be bad with actors faces... and names. But none of that matters because TERROR is here!

Butcher plans to rescue Becca, while MM, Hughie and Annie look into 70's Supe Liberty. Homelander sets about removing the weak links in The Seven and we admit we know Nothing about american candy, but a lot about CCTV. Find us on twitter @rantsmono or send a message to monorantspodcast@gmail.com

Compound V is made public and threatens to sink Vought, while The Boys are trying to stay afloat on "My Big Wet Dream". We discuss the comedic merits of injuring kids Vs whale slaughter. Find us on twitter @rantsmono or send a message to monorantspodcast@gmail.com
