Yes! Love this, and you nailed it on the characters. Starlight and Homelander steal the show. The Hughie character was essential in Season 1 and into 2, but yeah, that shtick starts to wear thin. I'm about the start Season 3 myself. Anthony Starr legitimately frightens me as Homelander. He just has the character down cold, really into the pathos of the character.

I don't know if they are doing this on purpose, but I love that Anthony Starr as Homelander is styled like Zach Morris on SBTB. Another superhero figure whose selfishness and narcisism needed more exploration.
