Just finished the first episode and am going to watch the second. In the first episode the rating warning mention rape, is it the blowjob scene?

The fact that you even have to ask is kinda troubling...

Ok. I was just making sure, because in episode 2 there was another scene that could have almost got that same tag but the tag wasn't listed.

Quick Ranking of The Seven:

1. Queen Maeve (She intrigues me the most because she feels like she genuinely cared about being a hero more than being a star, and the world just beat that out of her.)

2. Starlight (I mean, shes the main character of the Seven. Its hard not to enjoy her. Seeing the beginnings of that disillusionment I mentioned with Maeve is pretty sweet though.)

3. Homelander (Hes just such a charming sociopath, and he works perfectly as a villain because of just how easily he shrugs everything off. Hes both evil and understandable in WHY hes evil, and I like that.

4. Translucent (Hes only in the first few episodes, but his role in the show is just so important, and he has JUST the right amount of smarm to pull off his character.

5. Black Noir (I know he hasnt spoken, or really done much of anything, but thats what makes him so hilarious. Just having a silent badass sitting in the background is just extremely amusing to me.

6. A-Train (My bottom two are both kinda one-note pieces of shit, but at the same time, we understand their humanity. A-Train is SO focused on maintaining his status that hes self-destructing in various different ways. Thats intriguing.)

7. The Deep (Deep is just...hes both meant to be comic relief AND a massive piece of shit. Honestly? I GET his character. He IS kinda the butt monkey of the group, and its only his place on the team that gives him any sense of belonging. Doesnt make him any better, but hes human, like A-Train.)

Regarding the Deep, I thought his storyline was weird. I kept expecting it to tie into the final episode somehow but it just sorta... ends. That was the one part I didn't like. I guess like mentioned above, he's just comic relief so we're suppose to laugh at him and how his life continues to spiral down after what happened with Starlight.

I feel like were gonna look at a growth arc.

It was extremely uncomfortable to watch, which is exactly what it should have been.

It also felt like poetic justice, which I really wish the actress involved would have played up.

Probably right, it just felt like an abrupt end to his story for the season. They did a really good job of taking assholes like A-Train and the Deep and making them sympathetic. Like you said, makes them feel very human. Even Translucent got a 'he hangs out with his kid a lot' bit of backstory after his death. Only Homelander was a truly unrepentant bastard.

Oh, one thing I miss from the books. I wish Butcher had Terror with him. I think the showrunner said having a dog following him around would be too difficult to deal with which I can understand. We did see him in flashback but I want to see him piss on people which probably says a lot about me as a person.

Terror agrees with you.

https://comicvine1.cbsistatic.com/uploads/original/6/67602/3281130-terror%202.jpg

You can see him in the flashback of Butcher and Bekka waking up in bed, and there's a little nod to him when Hughie asks if he has a dog, seeing the toys in the back of Butcher's car. He's a very well trained dog, is one way of putting it.

Looking stuff up on the show had me stumble upon this from the show's co creator (minor season 2 spoiler): "But I can spoil -- we bring Terror back for one episode in Season 2, where he has a starring role. He's too important a character to the world -- and to Butcher -- not to explore,"

Just finished watching this.

Thought that there was no way that they could do something different and have unhinged supers any better than say...The Authority or Squadron Supreme. By I did not expect a single thing that happened in this show.
