VIEWERS have been left in shock after watching new superhero series, The Boys.
The Amazon Prime show - which made its debut last week - features full frontal nudity and 'weird' sex scenes.
The Boys is an anti-superhero show, where the supposed good guys ('The Seven') abuse their powers and get away with almost anything.
The dark and shocking series follows a group of normal people - collectively known as 'The Boys' - who unite to expose the dirty secrets of The Seven - who are otherwise known as the 'most powerful superheros in town'.
The cast stars Karl Urban, Jack Quaid and Gossip Girl’s Chace Crawford.
However, despite it's shocking nudity, abuse, gore and sex scenes, since it's launch last week the series has received rave reviews.
One viewer wrote: "Saw a few episodes of The Boys. It's not MCU, not for the 10-year-olds. Full frontal nudity (in one case a man, in another a couple floating 20ft in the air having sex). An accident turns an innocent bystander into a cloud of blood. Coerced oral sex. Recommended age: about 35+".
Another explained: "Just watched the first episode of The Boys on Prime. Yes, it's superheroes, but it's gory, full-frontal, cynical superheroes with a sense of humour. And Karl Urban."
One other praised the show, adding: "Kudos to #Euphoria and #TheBoys for making up ground with full frontal male nudity."
Despite the show already being a huge hit - it's definitely not for the faint-hearted of viewers.
Chase Crawford recently spoke to about the chilling scene in episode 1 which follows Starlight as she becomes a new addition to questionable superhero collective The Seven.
Almost immediately after joining, she finds herself blackmailed by one of her supposed allies, The Deep, played by Crawford.
The doughy-eyed, kind, heartthrob suddenly flips, reminding her of his position in power and what it would mean if she didn’t ‘smoke his pole’.
Chase revealed: "It was definitely uncomfortable to film.
"That scene wasn’t in the original script I read; it wasn’t in the audition or the scene I read. They came to me and said - 'We want to put this scene in that’s in the source material and it’s a pretty big deal',” he explained.
However, the show has been so successful already that work has already started on The Boys season 2.
The Boys is available to stream on Amazon Prime now.
