Love and Death
After the first three episodes of love and death we were left knowing that the murder was about to take place. For those of us that have no chill and went to the internet to investigate the real story we know what is about to happen. But from a narrative perspective the cliffhanger was great and still left the future up in the air. The second half of the series is all murder and aftermath so here we go.

The Boys
Homelander Clearly based on Superman, I have a lot of thoughts on this actually because I don’t know how much of his commentary was intentional but here we go. Let's start with his nationalism, for those who don’t know Superman’s original catchphrase was truth, justice and the American way now I think that original ideal manifested itself as Homelander’s nationalism. Considering that that catch phrase was born out of war-time, the base idea was absolutely American lives are the only ones worth saving which is Homelander’s whole thing.

Jumping the Shark
Jumping the shark is a phrase used in television used to describe when a show has gone too far and pushed the boundaries of what is acceptable and believable in its given world. The phrase came from a Happy Daze episode where the writers had Fonzie literally jump over a shark. Since then the phrase has become sort of an industry term as a manner of critique. So what other jumping the shark moments have we seen in television history? Surely there are plenty but here are the ones that stuck out the most to me.

Supernatural
In a show like Supernatural pretty much anything goes, the very structure of the show allows for a plethora of out of the ordinary storylines however there are a few stand out plot lines that are weird even in a show like this. Now these are in no particular order, nor do I really think any of these are more intensely weird then the others.
