Eric Kripke confirmed that season 5 of The Boys will be the series&#8217; final season. The popular Prime Video show will return on June 13 with the first three episodes, followed by weekly episodes for the next five weeks. Season 5 of The Boys was confirmed prior to its debut. Previously, creator Kripke had been ambiguous about The Boys&#8217; duration, citing his fifteen-season series Supernatural as an example of a show that has been proven wrong in terms of length.
According to Kripke on Twitter, season 5 of The Boys will be the series&#8217; final season. Kripke used the occasion to reveal that &#8220;Season 5 will be the final season&#8221; of The Boys. The inventor said that this was &#8220;always his plan,&#8221; joking that he had to keep the news quiet until he received approval from Vought.

In addition to confirming that The Boys will end after season 5, Kripke teased the ending of the series. In a description humorously typical of the Prime Video series, Kripke wrote that he is “thrilled to bring the story to a gory, epic, moist climax.” To go alongside this announcement, Kripke posted a screenshot of the final episode of The Boys season 4, with the vast majority of the text blacked out so as not to spoil it.
<h3>Why Ending The Boys After Season 5 Is The Right Decision</h3>
The Show Will Go Out On Its Own Terms

There are various reasons why Kripke is making the correct decision to stop The Boys after season 5. For starters, Kripke is allegedly following his predetermined plan for the series, allowing him to keep to his original narrative for Homelander, Billy Butcher, and the rest of The Boys team. This finale will avoid a long-running show in which the network&#8217;s desire for extra seasons forced the series to be overextended beyond what was intended.
As a result, the quality of the upcoming two seasons of The Boys will hopefully be maintained. The Boys is a well-reviewed series thus far, garnering a 90% Rotten Tomatoes score overall. As it stands, the reception of The Boys has gotten more positive as the seasons have continued. Season 1 received an 85% on Rotten Tomatoes, whereas The Boys season 3 climbed to a near-perfect 98%. Given these ratings, ending The Boys at season 5 will allow the show to quit while it is ahead.

Furthermore, The Boys relies on a sense of timeliness that might get exhausting when extended across significantly more seasons. Along with being a satire of the superhero genre, the show overtly reflects on current-day political topics. Sustaining hot-button issue-based content over multiple years is already challenging enough, and will be a better fit for The Boys five-season arc.
