Excellent use of Billy Zane.

It was good.

And now I want a Fresca.

It was good.

The problem is that I can't have a Fresca. It contains grapefruit juice, that interferes with a med I'm on. A med that's a prophylactic, rather than for any actual condition. Bugger.

Thats what I call a blessing in disguise.

Those who dislike Fresca do not comprehend the deeply soul satisfying nature of Fresca.

My buddies old man was in Vietnam. He said the Vietnamese would grab anything they could from the Americans. Coke, Budweiser, cigs. Nobody would touch the Fresca. He said you could drop a pallet in the middle of a field and it would still be there today.

Interesting article on "The Boys" from Nerdist, on how some of the stupidest things in the show are pulled directly from real life . . .

Real Life Is Never Too Ridiculous for THE BOYS

The fourth episode of The Boys' third season used actual events to create comedy gold, because the real world is dumber than fiction.

The article focuses on Homelander's appearance on the "Cameron Coleman Hour" and A-Train's "socially concious" drink commercial. I immediately saw the parallels between Homelander's TV appearances and the real world Fox News, but I had forgotten about the very real Pepsi commercial that the show parodies (copies?).

And here's another Nerdist article about that last scene with Hughie drunk on his (temporary) power . . .

Hughie's Descent in THE BOYS Is a Brutal Warning to All of Us

Hughie's quest for power led to The Boys most terrifying moment, in a scene that serves as a reminder of what can happen to even the best of us.

That was the worst, best, and most difficult scene of episode 4. I hope he can come back from this, the show might get too dark and brutal with Hughie's humanity at it's core.

I immediately caught the Pepsi commercial reference. That was pop culture gold.

Homelander's speech, on the various interviews, reminded me of a video that made the rounds a couple of years back. It showed a couple of dozen (at least) different TV news organizations, from different networks, saying exactly the same lines about "responsible reporting."

Poor Hughie. His last shot was something.

Soldier Boy has been modified by the Russians. Wounds on supers appear permanent, or slow healing. Mask sense if the Russias wanted a weapon to kill Homelander. This is so Winter Soldier but with a hamsters!
