You may be tempted to watch this ambitious package of shorts in a single sitting, though these animated appetizers are worth savoring for how rich with creativity they are.
Whether you’re a fan of The Boys or not, you’ll enjoy the animated shorts in The Boys Presents: Diabolical, mainly because they tell good stories with funny character-driven gags.

It's a blast through and through (frankly, some more and some less, but IMHO that's usual for this type of series), for those who come from the series and those from the comics as well. I've binged through both so far and so did I with this creative rollercoaster of gore, love and many other things. A must watch, if you're almost dying of anticipation for Season 3 of The Boys like I am.

SEASON 1
This is a really fun show with many different animation styles and styles of writing with some of the best moments in THE BOYS yet. This project proved creative.

SEASON 1
Fans of “The Boys” will certainly be entertained by the easily bingeable series, but the most sterling episodes are the ones that abandon the genre completely and tell a fascinating, human-centered story — albeit with a gory, superhero twist.
While the standard isn’t uniform across all eight episodes, there are no calamitous “misses” in the mix. Each entry lands a couple of solid jokes and is successfully animated in its own distinct style.
Some of the shorts are absolutely fantastic, playing with the trappings of the show’s world to create funny or heartbreaking stories that stand on their own. Others? Well, let’s just say 12 minutes is often not enough time to tell a story.
It’s far from diabolical, but this is probably best enjoyed as an amuse-bouche before the main series eventually returns.
The show always looks phenomenal, but the storytelling in the mid-section of the season is just lackluster when compared to the creative plotting of the show itself and the best of these shorts. One could easily watch the first and seventh episodes and move on to reading the source material instead. If this animated experiment sags in the middle, it bounces back in the final trio of episodes.

This Is Some Serious Garbage This is material for the pre-adolescent 13 year olds of the 21st Century. Seth Rogan seems to talk the talk with executives who know no better than the average fan, but his recent career has shown he certainly can't walk the walk. Garth Ennis is a comic writer and is not expected to know how to take his writings and turn them into a quality production. The production of Diabolical tarnishes greatly the image of production of The Boys. Yes, the concept on paper was fun to fantasize about but the end product results in what I can produce from eating too much Taco Bell.
