So Butcher's wife wasn't raped. Right?

It's left ambiguous. The footage of Becca leaving Homelander's apartment shows her looking dishevelled and shaken up. But there are no signs of physical injury or violence. She could simply be freaking out because she cheated on Billy.

That said, Homelander has caused two plane crashes and murdered well over a hundred innocent men, women and children. Then used their deaths as propaganda to advance his own plans. He created Super-Terrorists, who have already killed US servicemen. He killed Stillwell in cold blood and, presumably, left her baby to die. So it's not much of a stretch that he raped Becca.

Plus he's definately a rapist in the comics. Not sure if they will follow that though. The comic is a bit too whacky to portray on TV.
 
so many pages

Is this show good?

It looks like the kind of thing I'm into, parody bad super hero stuff - my jam

Let me know if I should turn this on

Very dark, violent and funny. Well written - the changes they made from the comic actually make it work better as a TV show - and superb performances from Starr and Urban.

Watch it now, thank me later:)

Homelander would argue with that. In the comics he tells Starlight that he's never forced himself on a woman, which is technically correct; he blackmailed Starlight into giving him, Noir and A Train oral sex, but didn't use physical force. Of course, it's morally reprehensible and legally probably qualifies as rape, even though it's not vaginal penetration.

Homelander was basically going Full Clinton,

"I did not have sexual relations with that woman...";)

It's a trap.

This show is GoT season eight, avoid it at all costs.

Seriously, it isn't for you.

Holy shit I can give likes again!

Definitely one of the best comic shows/movies out there. Not as gritty as Daredevil but damn it is seriously well written and acted. Which is dope because I like Antony Starr ever since I binged Banshee.

Also Urbans stop being a cunt line with hugh in the car made me rewind it like twice to show people. Hilarious shit.

Also Hugh's response to Butcher repeatedly calling him a cunt,

"I don't see it as an insult. They're flexible, can take a pounding and responsible for 98% of my decisions".

Is there doubt we're in the golden age of television?

No doubt. Stuff is high level the past several years and replacing quality cinema (which makes me sad).
