One of the most popular series on television or streaming is getting ready to release its final season. This particular series just happens to be based on a set of books, though it’s long ago diverged in very important ways from its source material. That’s two ways in which Season 5 of The Boys and Season 8 of Game of Thrones are similar. The Boys showrunner Eric Kripke hopes that’s really where the similarities end. And he wants people to know that he does worry there’s one other thing the two series will have when it’s all said and done.
