Fans of The Boys have discovered that they have been missing out on some of the series’ most funny jokes because they were unaware of Amazon Prime Video’s fantastic hidden feature.
The Boys season four premiered last week, with an Oscar-winning actress lending her voice to an octopus having đâŻđ with people, as well as a close-up bum scene that truly established the tone for the new season.
Although the show is definitely funny, fans have discovered that they have been missing out on some great gags because they were unaware of a brilliant feature.
Amazon’s streaming platform has a ‘X-Ray’ function that provides additional information about the show. Most series explain the actors and any interesting trivia.
The Boys has gone this a step further by including funny remarks in some of the quiz areas, providing fans with a true behind-the-scenes look at the show.
One fan shared an amusing comment on X, then known as Twitter, along with a screenshot of the information that appeared after they halted the most explicit human-centipede-inspired đâŻđ scenes in the program, which starred Rob Benedict.
The first episodes of The Boys season four were released last week.
The trivia box read: âActor Rob Benedict wants us to remind everyone that he studied Shakespeare at Northwestern University.
âThere is no contractual obligation for us to carry out this request. This is merely a kind gesture.â
The fan who posted the screenshot, Azalben, captioned the post: âIf youâre not watching #TheBoys with Prime Videoâs X-Ray feature on, youâre missing half the jokes.â
Rob Benedict played a character called Splinter who can duplicate himself.
Some viewers were completely unaware of this hack and said that they needed to check it out for themselves.
CapBlondebeard commented: âOkay, now I have a reason to rewatch the entire show.â
SushiPopbox also commented:Â âI didnât know what x-ray was, this sounds fun! I needed a reason to rewatch the first 3 eps this early so tyvm.â
Other viewers were well aware of this hack and said it was a welcome addition. Mushfiqur25 commented: âIt takes me an extra 10 mins to finish any show/ movies on Amazon for this weirdly cool feature.â
ClinicalBrendon also added: âRewatching the show and seeing this every now and again is great.â
To enable the Amazon X-Ray feature, all you need to do is start streaming an episode, click âview allâ and you will be shown tab options including cast, music, trivia, and bonus content.
The show has several hilarious comments to be found in the trivia section.
Tilda Swinton made a cameo as an Octopus.
Other sequences in the series contain tiny gags, and the show has been incorporating extra general facts from season one.
In one season four scene starring Tilda Swinton as Ambrosius the octopus, the general trivia read: “Ambrosius is voiced by none other than Academy Award-winning actress Tilda Swinton.” This isn’t a joke.
Fans should take use of this feature now, as The Boys will end after season 5.
This corresponds to approximately 13 additional episodes remaining to complete this fantastic drama!
