Gen V, the latest spinoff series of The Boys, has kicked off its first season with a bang. However, fans are left wondering just how many episodes are left in this action-packed instalment and when they can expect the grand season finale.
The Boys’ universe continues to expand with Gen V, a thrilling spinoff series that adds a fresh layer of chaos and superpower-filled mayhem. Taking inspiration from Garth Ennis’ iconic comic arc “We Gotta Go Now,” Gen V introduces viewers to a group of superpowered college students attending the Godolkin University School of Crimefighting. In true “Boys” fashion, the series doesn’t hold back on the dark humour, subversive superhero action, or complex character development that fans have come to love.
A Return to Tradition
In an age where binge-watching has become the norm, Prime Video has chosen to take a different path for Gen V. While platforms like Netflix and Disney+ drop entire seasons at once, Prime Video has decided to stick to the traditional TV model with a weekly release schedule.
Gen V Has 3 Episodes Left (From 8 Total)
Gen V’s first season debuted with a bang, offering viewers the first three episodes all at once. However, the remaining episodes will follow a more traditional release schedule, with each episode dropping one at a time. So, how many episodes are left in this action-packed season? There are three more episodes to look forward to, completing the first season with a total of eight episodes.
This episode count aligns with the standard for The Boys franchise, which typically features eight episodes per season. This approach allows the show’s writers to dive deep into character development and external conflicts without resorting to filler episodes.
While the titles and directors for the remaining episodes remain a mystery, we do know the talented individuals behind the scripts. Lex Edness, known for their work on “Dirty John” and “Physical,” penned Episode 5. Lauren Greer, a writer from the acclaimed series “Timeless,” crafted Episode 6. Episode 7 comes from the talented Chelsea Grate, formerly a staff writer on “For the People.” And finally, Brant Englestein, with experience on Marvel shows like “Agent Carter” and “Secret Invasion,” concludes the season with Episode 8, the highly anticipated season finale.
