Season 3 conveys so emphatically that gloriously gonzo moments of gruesome death-dealing are accents, not distractions. Tone down TV-MA gore to something PG-13 appropriate, and Kripke's writing team still boasts tremendous character development. The only subplot that misses for me is Russian mobster Little Nina (Katia Winter) tugging on Frenchie’s (Tomer Capone) collar, where almost every other character is dragged through mud only to come out stronger. Mother's Milk (Laz Alonso) confronts his traumatic family history, Starlight (Erin Moriarty) wages war against Homelander, Hughie (Jack Quaid) wrestles with weakness as the human half of a supe-normal couple — adversity strikes without prejudice but not without opportunity. It's a season of romantic dance numbers, psychological breakdowns, and owning our traumas instead of hiding from them like specters. In other words, problems that manly men can't solve with punches.
Season 3 is uncharacteristically vulnerable in ways that bring out more profound performances from this panicking cast. Antony Starr continues his rampage towards what should be an Emmy nomination as Homelander charts egomaniacal highs when leading a Vought International takeover and split-personality lows when Mr. America berates himself in the mirror out of fear. We see Homelander afraid for the first time, and Starr's glazed-over presence is immaculate.
