The first two episodes of The Boys Season 5 quickly address major questions left hanging after Season 4’s ending. We learn what happens to Ashley Barrett after she takes Compound V, where Starlight goes following Hughie’s capture, and how the world is reacting to Homelander’s control. The episodes also show the consequences of a significant change introduced near the end of last season: Kimiko gaining the ability to speak. While a welcome development, it feels a little unexpected after so many seasons of the show.
The new series Land Man, currently airing Sundays on CBS and streaming the next day on Paramount+, follows Kayce Dutton (Luke Grimes) as he leaves the ranch to join the U.S. Marshals in Montana, following a difficult personal tragedy. Unlike other shows in the Yellowstone world, Land Man moves at a quicker pace, focusing on individual cases each week rather than the drawn-out family storylines fans are used to. This change in style is both the source of criticism and the reason for the show’s popularity.

Although it didn’t open quite as strongly as the first movie’s $146.4 million debut, its $131.7 million opening weekend was still the biggest of the year so far.
Despite its recent performance, this game had a very large budget – reportedly over $200 million, and possibly as high as $250 million. This figure, according to Forbes, doesn’t even include the ongoing costs of maintaining the game or adding new content.
