Contains spoilers from 'The Boys' Season 3 Episode 8

'The Boys' Season 3 Episode 8 didn't exactly get the rousing reception that it expected and in fact received for 'Herogasm'. Some fans felt the series finale was a damp squib compared to the rest of the episodes in the season and hoped it would be a better installment next. With Season 4 confirmed and set to go into production in August, chances are the new season may land as early as June 2024.

Season 3 ended with Noir killed by Homelander (Antony Starr) after the latter felt betrayed by his most-trusted supe. Queen Maeve (Dominique McElligott) lost an eye and her powers in the process of taking down Soldier Boy, who has gone back to being on the ice in a safe facility. The country has still embraced the psychotic Homelander as the leader supreme. Butcher (Karl Urban) inches close to his death from the effects of Temp V, while Starlight (Erin Moriarty) officially becomes a member of the boys as they plan to take on Victoria Neuman.

"That was an underwhelming season finale #TheBoysTV," one of the fans wrote. This was echoed by another who wrote, "That finale kinda sucked. I would’ve been alright if Herogasm was the season finale ngl #TheBoysTV #TheBoys " Another fan expected more. "Not the best of the season This season its an exception that finale is not the best episodes because lots of action happening but sometimes I couldnt say that this is boys. #TheBoysStrikeBack #TheBoysTV #TheBoysFinale "

"The finale wasn’t perfect but season three of #TheBoysTV had some of my favourite moments I’ve seen on television. Also shoutout to Anthony Starr, effortlessly portraying one of the greatest villains of all time. I cannot wait for more…," one of the comments read.

One of the fans felt the previous season was better, "#TheBoysFinale was good, but not as good as finale of Season 2. aLot of plot holes. #theboys #TheBoysTV." The rants just piled up. "I was looking forward to the finale but I feel disappointed #TheBoysFinale #TheBoysTV." This sentiment was seconded by another who wrote, "The finale of #TheBoysFinale #TheBoysTV was kinda bad."

"The finale may have been a bit of a dud, but the #TheBoysTV season 3 overall has been one of the most consistently entertaining shows on television, can't wait for season 4. #TheBoysFinale #Amazonprime #TheBoysSeason3."
