Summary The Boys season 5 is going to be the final batch of episodes in the main show, but it needs to avoid a common franchise mistake to ensure a good ending. The Boys season 4 ended with the titular group in the worst position they've ever been in. With Butcher killing Victoria Neuman now painting a target on their backs, everyone except their former leader and Starlight were captured by Vought in the last minutes of the finale.
1 The Boys Season 5's Ending Must Avoid Focusing On Setup For Future Shows The Final Episodes Should Stand On Their Own Close Because of how successful The Boys has been, the franchise has started to expand on Prime Video, with multiple shows now in the works. At present, season 2 of Gen V, a spinoff following young Supes, is currently filming, while The Boys: Mexico is in development.
Many Other Franchises Have Made This Mistake Lacking Conclusions Make For Unsatisfying Finales If The Boys season 5 doesn't focus solely on its own story, it runs the risk of making audiences feel like they need to continue watching after the end, making the grand finale less satisfying. To some extent, this has happened with the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with some threads from Avengers: Endgame not being completely resolved to lead into the next batch of projects.
