Oh Boy

The Boys--the best show on Amazon Prime--has finally announced its season 2 starting date.  Fans had to wait months just to know when they could start watching again. The producers will released the first three episodes on Friday, September 4, and then offer a new episode each Friday till the finale on October 9.

Just a few points.

First, they've had this thing in the can for a while. (Obviously, since it had to finish shooting before the coronavirus scare--though it was actually completed late last year.) Season 1 dropped on July 26, 2019.  Why wait so long to put the second season out?

It's going to be a long, hot summer.  Everyone's stuck in place these days.  Why not do the fans a favor and move things up a bit due to exigent circumstances?

Finally, what's this one-episode-a-week garbage?  This isn't broadcast TV where you can only put one thing on at a time.  And you're not selling ads.  The whole show is ready--drop all the episodes at once and let the fans decide how to watch.

So two cheers for the announcement.
