The Boroughs not quite Stranger Things in a retirement village as has been advertised but with an excellent cast, good music and a story that mostly doesn't go too far off the rails it's solid entertainment.
Only very tangentially related but also starring some venerable acting talent A man on the inside is a lot of fun* now finished season 2. Ted Danson as an amateur PI driving his professional boss around the bend and gives a lot of laughs.
*deals with dementia in parts which hits very hard if you've had a loved one go that way.

The Boys season 5 ended on a damp squib
Other than some absurdist violence, it just felt formulaic, and more of a traditional superhero show. Soldier Boy was wasted and may as well have not been there other than some quippy lines.
