Hope y'all enjoy this one!! it was a crazy episode.
Just a heads up, we will be LIVE tonight on the Twitch channel (www.twitch.tv/stikkerg) - chatting, hanging and gaming!! come say hello.
Its really uncomfortable to see the Deep get the tables turned on him.
@James Mayes
Considering what he did to Starlight, I say payback's a bitch. But I do wish the showmakers had toned down the soundeffects of the "gill rape"
I'm so excited for you two, to see the ending.
Hey guys, truly love the reactions, sorry if I'm supposed to know this already but when is the finale???
@J M
A week from today
Nikki being grossed out by every scenes while Steven is enjoying the f out of it is the kind of content I signed for 😅
😂😂
Yep
Antony Starr is such a great actor. I think he stole the season.
Yea hes awesome in the show.
Love him also in Banshee!
@Peter Müller U took the words right outta my mouth.
I've been saying he deserved an emmy or golden globe for his role in the Boys. It's hard to imagine anyone else in the role he is goood.
I love Karl Urban, always been a fan of him, and totally loved his portrayal of Billy Butcher, my man showying his acting chops here for real, but I gotta agree with you, Starr's Homelander is terrifying! And if you see him on interviews and background stuff, he's such a regular and cool guy, it's amazing!
The actor who plays Homelander is such a f***ing delight to watch. :)
You should watch 'Banshee' , he's and it's awesome!
Ew. He's an amazing actor, but it's not a delight. He actually makes me sick. Which is good in a sense...
Not really to be honest. People always say this great actor and everything but I see nothing special about his acting. Maybe it's just me but there are more actors better than him. He's not really the highlights of this show just saying. He is just the same as every actor and actress in this show.
@@GolDFish-if1ovliterally cringe if the character he plays was recasted the show sinks
@@GolDFish-if1ov The fuck is this angsty zoomer comment shit? Yes, it's just you. Homelander is like half the show and a good portion of that comes down to his incredible acting. Yes, the show has generally excellent acting, but saying it's the same as all the other actors and actresses is just dishonest bullshit.
Homelander doesn’t care about people, so of course he wouldn’t remember Butcher easily.
Also remembering the face of someone you met for 30 seconds, 8 years ago, or saw at distance in a crowd like, 5 weeks before wouldn't exactly be easy for anybody.
The scene with The Deep was a classic rape scene.
This series plays with our emotions in so many situations, it's really fantastic.
The next episode is like how Butcher would say: Fkn Diabolical
That scene with Deep's gills is so disgusting. It really freaks everyone out in a real primal way.
Involuntary orifice violation.
Great way to hold a mirror up to his own actions for him.
couldn't have said it better myself
Duuuuude i watched this months ago and i still feel actually pain with that awfull scene...
Eh I’ve seen worse
It’s completely possible that Becca didn’t say anything in order to protect Billy. It’s not unheard of for girls to stay silent because they’re afraid the men in their lives will do something like kill their rapist in order to get justice. Then she feels an added guilt of Billy ending up in prison for her sake, or worse getting killed by Homelander, which would probably be a guarantee if Billy went right up to him
This show did a marvelous job of making Homelander scary af.
This was the episode where we finally saw the real A-Train. His addiction has completely swallowed him up. The only thing that matters to him now is his next shot of Compound V. At this stage, everything bad that happens is everyone else's fault. Huey did nothing to Popclaw, but A-Train has to blame him, he can't take responsibility for his actions. Robin was an accident, like that makes it better.
I mean yes he is responsible for her death but it was still an accident. Drunk drivers kill by accident but are jailed because they chose to drink.
@@BhlackBishop well said. Him killing Robyn was an accident but taking compound V isn't.
@@BhlackBishop But after an accident do you laugh about it like A-train and make fun about it?
@@valentinemorningstar3097 Not defending A-train there at all, but sometimes the only way to cope with something that fucked up is to make light of it. He still sucks at that point though
@@valentinemorningstar3097 and can still be an accident no matter how you react afterwards he just didn't have empathy for her
I think it's way too early to say what Homelander did to Butcher's wife wasn't rape. That footage of her leaving the room, she looked pretty rattled. As for disappearing, she was pregnant with a super baby and there was literally only one place to go for help. Unfortunately that one place was an evil organization.
And at the same time her looking disheveled isn't proof that it was actually rape.
she just wanted to sleep with a superhero. She did and gets what she deserved.. feel sorry for butcher. He dedicate his whole life to find his cheater wife.
@@ertyuiopos3942 We watched the same show, right?
@@jackjaws004 yes that's what it seems from this episode. Don't spoiler me.
Fast forward it wasn't stop trying to jump the gun everytime
"WHAT IS THIS SHOW?!?"
I love the disconfort they feel watching this ahah
Isn't it really well done how they can make us feel sympathetic discomfort for an organ we don't have or understand?
Not sure it’s the organ so much as seeing someone insert their hand into someone’s torso
i think it's a fun take on the whole "don't push your fingers into someone else's orifices, especially if they protest". In a way Deep is at the receiving end of sexual abuse now. I thought it was quite clever in an arc where Deep tries to be a better person than he has been.
@the baron - Yeah, I'm convinced his redemption will eventually lead to him legitimately apologizing to Starlight and possibly sacrificing himself to save her or the Boys from Homelander or Stormfront or some other uber-powerful supe.
8:30 Éomer of Rohan in all his glory
He should've done to Wormtongue what he did to Mesmer.
@@wtw5002 "Enough blood has been spilled on his account"
*1 week later
"Oh, looks like someone told Saruman how to destroy Helm's deep... i wonder who..."
fede mona hahahha Aragorns only mistake 😂 and it cost the life of all Elves in Helms Deep exept for Legolas.
This show is so good, next episode is a doozie!
OMG, it looks like poor Nikki is gonna have a breakdown watching this series. I feel guilty for laughing at her misery. Hehehehe. Well, not that guilty.
🤣
No I don’t at all it’s funny asf
That old man Homelander visits looks like an elderly Hank Schrader.
Antony Starr is actually in Without a Paddle one of my favorite movies, he plays Billy their friend that dies
Mesmer looked into the mirror and said "I see dead people "
I feel like the whole build up of the Deep could turn him on the bright side in season 2. Like some kind of catarsis - purification throu suffering. I mean what he did with Starlight is horribly wrong. But at least his motives about animals were good
I think so too. I think the plan is for him to have a sort of Jamie Lannister arc - start off doing something horrible and then spend the rest of the series looking for redemption.
when homelander starts to tear up talking to that guy?? woah
I think that Homelander and A-Train not recognising Billy and Hughie is an indication of how little regard the Supes have for “Mud-People”; that we’re not worth remembering.
13:09 Homelander might be an asshole, but he’s not exactly in the wrong here.
The Seven were down to 5 and there was a lot of evidence to suggest Starlight was involved.
I would definitely say he's in the wrong. He's not wrong, but saying he's not IN THE wrong implies that he's in the right.
He’s the leader of a group that’s recently lost over 25% of their members and he’s interrogating a suspect that has a lot of evidence suggesting she’s involved.
In this specific incident saying Homelander is “not exactly in the wrong” is appropriate.
Anthony Starr is such a treasure int an already amazing show filled with amazing casts and crews. Respect to this show, man
Not really to be honest. People always say this great actor and everything but I see nothing special about his acting. Maybe it's just me but there are more actors better than him. He's not really the highlights of this show just saying. He is just the same as every actor and actress in this show.
Nikki says what am i watching in every episode.... LOL!!!!
"So who's worse?"
Me: I say A-Train, since he ran through Rachel and had a good laugh about it, he killed his own girlfriend, he was willing to kill Hughie's father, and he's giving Compound V to various terrorist groups all over the world(which is treason), so I say he's the worse.
Edit: Sorry, I met to say Robin.
Who's Rachel? 😕🤔😂
Robin dude, Robin...
mild spoiler, but who send him all around the world ;)
I say Homelander is the worst. A-Train accidentally ran over Robin and felt he had to kill his girlfriend or Homelander would have killed them both. The Deep is a jerk but he's not as bad as Homelander, who pretty much has no respect for human life, and even kills for fun (the sniper).
@@MarX8883 We finally got to find out what happened in the final episode of Friends when Jennifer Anniston exploded at the end!
Great reactions, one of the best shows I've seen in a while... can't wait for season 2!
Has Nikki said "What is this show?" for every single episode so far? LOL
This is a story that reiterates the concept that "the cycle continues". The Deep would have gone through everything that Starlight did. It's what they do. He forced non-consensual contact and then received the same again in return during this episode. Homelander started out as a child and then was turned into a monster. None of it is "right".
I agree, Hughie and Annie are on a parallel arc, where they are new to their respective groups and on the opposite end, Butcher and Homelander also have their parallel arc that intersects with each other.
What I don't understand is when Homelander learned that the Seven was being targeted, why didn't he look into the past to find clues. Clearly there was some recent conflict with the Seven and the Boys when it was headed up by Mallory, even before the show started that led to Lamplighter and Mallory stepping away.
Are there any other Fannibals in this family? All 3 seasons of Hannibal are now on Netflix, we need to campaign for Nikki and Steven to watch it!
Omg. I can’t wait for the next episode. So fun watching you two! Steven’s facial reactions are amazing. Thanks for the entertainment once again!
Omg I already love your channel but your reactions to this show keep me coming back. I've never seen reactions this real....on CZcams
Can't wait for your reaction to episode 8, whoo boy revelations and twists abound.
Such a crazy episode!
Loved seeing your reaction (sorry for enjoying your pain🤣)
From the 1st two episodes I never imagined that the characters and story would be this deep (no pun intended)
Can't wait for the finale, and really can't wait to see what happens in S2!
Wow good eye Nikki, I've never noticed the vent coming down below 15:20
I've missed you guys soo much!! Life is crazy was with you guys for GOT. Hope you're well!
As someone who works in radiology, I deeply appreciate Steven's delight at a compound fracture 😆
I don't think anything could ever top your Game of Thrones reactions, but these The Boys reactions are right up there.
You could say they were mesmerized by that particular violent scene.
This is a perfect Show for reaction Videos. Especially when you both watch. It's truly reaction Gold! Almost every Episode Nikki is kinda speechless. I love it! So entertaining! The last episode will blow your minds! My favorite reactions from you are the following shows so far.
1. The Boys
2. Game of Thrones
3. Better caul Saul
Keep it up. Greetings from good old Germany.
If only some one had told you this show was quite the ride.
Love you guys, can not wait till you see the last episode.
OMGosh.... your reactions to this to this series, esp. this episode, were fantastic.... 🤩
That's why I LOVE this show.
Misdirect is the key word on this show. You think one thing and they twist it. And I feel for both sides.
Don’t get me wrong, what The Deep did to Starlight and the other girls they implied he forced himself on is absolutely reprehensible. But I don’t see the scene about his gills in this episode being about him getting what’s coming to him but rather coming to understand just how fucked up what he did was. It honestly alarms me how few reactors I see willing to show even a little sympathy during that scene. No one deserves sexual assault and I say that as someone who’s been there before.
Yeah, people don’t know to how forgive, but still remember
@@leviticus2611 yea just shows that they’re bad people
Well, based on exactly what your saying, it sounds like The Deep needed to have that happen to him in order to fully realize his mistakes. So, all-in-all, it WAS called for, and if you watch this scene and the scene with Starlight back to back, you can make a case that he is indeed getting what was coming to him.
I know this is an old comment on an old video, but as someone else who also has been there... No, I don't feel sorry for a serial rapist and a general douchebag for getting a small, incomparable sample of what he has put many women through. In fact, ha-frigging-ha. I'll save my sympathy to someone who deserves it.
@@yaboytroy357 so the girl deserves to be rxped now right
I love these reactions! I cannot wait for the next one!
Great show guys!!
Regarding Homelander... I’m sure that every serial killer has a sad backstory but they don’t get a pass for heinous acts. Understanding Homelander better doesn’t give him a pass for killing legions of people wantonly.
Great job as always
The show will not tell you definitively whether or not the encounter between Homelander and Becca was consensual or not, and it’s fiercely debated online. That said, I think video from this episode gives all the evidence we need to figure it out. If you have sex at work in someone’s office, you’re going to generally put yourself back together and do your best to make it look like you DIDN’T just have sex at work before you leave the room. On the other hand, if you’re in a sexual encounter against your will, the natural reaction is to get the hell out of there. When Becca comes out of that office, she’s disoriented and disheveled - she’s holding her jacket and shoes in her hand, her hair is messed up, and her shirt is untucked and only held closed by 2 buttons that are clearly in the wrong button holes. That strongly implies to me that she threw on enough clothing to cover herself and got out of there as quickly as she possibly could. I honestly don’t understand how people can see “consensual encounter” in that scene.
To this day I still wish in the episode between Homelander and his maker would have been like this, "I am the world's greatest superhero."
and he responds, "And you're a terrible human being."
I think that's just a less subtle way to say what he already said.
Can't wait for next week episode!
"WTF did I just watch?" Yeah that pretty much summons the series
24:43 He sounded like Kiefer Sutherland in Dark City XD
"What the f**k did I just watch?" sums it all up nicely xD
I just realize that vogelbaum here said voughts job is protect its most profitable asset. And I guess homelander thought he was talking about him. But what he really meant was compound v which edgar then repeated in season 2. You catch so many things on the rewatch.
Knowing the sick humour of this show, as soon as I saw them stunt cast Haley Joel Osment, I knew it was going to result in him getting absolutely obliterated. haha
Whoa. Billy just Michael Myers-ed that dude. Right down to the bathroom scene. Mesmer ran, but he only died tired.
I literally screamed out when Butcher bashed 6th sense guy’s head in 😳😬
Homelander is wonderfully played by Anthony Starr. Starr's acting is what makes the character. Another show in which Anthony Starr is great in is Banshee. I would recommend Banshee as a future show to watch and review.
What gets me is that the shocks keep coming even in the last episode. Depending how they follow the story we haven't seen nothing compared to where this is going to go. The greatest thing about the show is that there is so much changed from the comics we are all in for a shock.
15:19 Whoa, nice catch! I missed that detail.
💚🤣 Thanx 4 all the laughs always! Love ya's, from Australia xo🥰 💜🇦🇺
Lol Nikki your reactions are great! I’ve been loling all night
Cannot wait for the next reaction!
This was great. I have just one question, when is episode 8?
I forgot there were only 8 eps. OH BOY are you in for it.
Not sure about Nikki but I think if Steve watched Banshee it will probably end up one of his favourite shows of all time~!
Been re-watching it as Macrams doing his reactions....It's such a brutal badass show that I miss dearly!!
Glad to see how much you two are enjoying this series, but in your own way - Steve grinning ear to ear while Nikki covers her face looking horrified.
Billy Butcher kind of reminds me a little bit like Frank Castle when he is taking care of Mesmer.
I really want to see you guys react to the Season 2 trailer after you finish the final episode!
God, that scene with Deep. Every....fucking....time. My ribs hurt so much from the sympathetic pain!
The boys!!!
Or as Lacey & Steve say: Da Boys.
@@darthken815 I think you mean Nikki...
@Mojo Riot
No, me and Dan are also subscribed to the channel named Dou Reacts. They're a married couple whose names are Lacey & Steve. They jokingly refer to The Boys as "Da Boys"
20:35 Ave! True to Caesar!
I'm surprised that Steven is beginning to sympathize with Homelander but not with the Deep. The Deep has fewer sins to atone for, and it seems like he's at least trying to do the right thing now.
Yeah but Homelander had a rough childhood and never really developed a conscience, so I guess he's cutting him some slack. The Deep seems to have tons of adoring fans, and yet Stillwell implied he'd done similar things to many girls other than Starlight.
It’s probably the father of daughters in me
@@NikkiStevenReact I didn't know you had daughters, that makes sense :)
Crazy penultimate episode! 😊🌺🏝️❤️
"... _First off though, aren't you like Doctors and Stuff? Can't you... save a Baby_ ..."
Awww... Nikki, Nikki, Nikki... 😂😂😂😂. You two are all kinds of specially-special. I swear you guys' reactions are like no other reactions.
Season finale will blow your mind :)
SE1 Final here we come !!!!
Can't wait for your reaction to the finale. Hurry up wednesday!
Anthony Starr playing Homelander makes me wish he was part of the playstation superhero series 'Powers'.
Awesome , love from India😍
No way was it consensual. Homelander is that powerful that becca had no choice but to do as he said until he was bored. There was no need for him to physically attack her and that’s why I think she came out without marks on her. She would’ve played along for her own safety imo. You have to remember too that homelander moral compass is so off that he potentially thought it was consensual and couldn’t tell that becca didn’t want it.
You guys are fun to watch.
This show is so good omg!
The Deep really sucks at making friends. First the dolphin, now this... :D
Man I wish you'd jus post the final episode today lol you'll still get the views. But seriously love your reactions
If you like the actor for Homelander, check him out in Banshee. Really scary there too!
That's what I'm talking about😊!!!
Lol nikki your reactions "what is this show" I felt the same way, except when i read the comics 4 years ago. It is 15x more disturbing than the show i literally couldn't sleep after finishing the whole series. It's reeallly messed up and foul but really damn good
Y'all need to do a reaction to the Boys season 2 teaser trailer ... cause its insane! Of course, first thing first ... need to get over that final episode and that twisted end revelation.
Their other show Preacher had many wtf moments throughout also...I feel like that one finally ended up being a trial run for how they want to present stories. They had to tame that one down it felt like compared to this looking back maybe because of the channel it was on. Even got dry here and there, but I think so far...they found their niche to a better degree with The Boys.
Just an FYI, Anthony Starr(Homelander) had this other pretty great show, Banshee.
Homelander reminds me of a serial killing version of Zack Morris from Saved By The Bell.
Just when you think things couldn't be any more weird and uncomfortable!
Episode 7.
that Duchelander is just as if Doomsday had been created into be body of a man instead of a monster
If y’all haven’t seen Banshee yet...I recommend it to y’all if no one else hasn’t...Antony Starr (Homelander) is in the show...I just finished this series and it is PHENOMENAL!!!!
18:55 Nikki nearly lost her lunch on camera right there.
If you think this is crazy & violent, you should see the comics...makes the show look like Disney...😯
I honestly prefer the show over the comics.
Yeah I somehow can't see the G-Wiz/G-Men story making it into the show either. 😀
Hoping for Banshee and Sons of Anarchy reactions in the future.
@13:10 yeah, he's SO FU*CKING GOOD!!! This actor omg....@17:52 one of the best tv shows in the last years.
Here, why not try some of this compound F.... I hear it's a real leg breaker.... F for fracture
Whether Homelander thought it was consensual, what kind of power imbalance exists between an employee and the most powerful, invulnerable superhero?
