School's out. Or, at least, our time at Godolkin University is over for now, as Gen V has come to an end on Prime Video. It certainly went out with a bang, too, leaving us on an explosive cliffhanger and teasing us with some surprising cameos from the original show. But don't worry – season 2 has already been confirmed, and The Boys season 4 is also imminent.

If you're still catching up with The Boys college-set spin-off, though, it's not too late. We've got you covered with a guide to the season's episode count, as well as where you can tune in to watch it.

Gen V is available exclusively on Prime Video, which means you’ll need a subscription to Amazon Prime to have access. The streamer has also recently announced changes to its basic subscription, with ads arriving on the service from "early 2024." If you want an ad-free experience, you’ll have to pay an additional $2.99/month.

I'm the Senior Entertainment Writer here at 12DOVE, focusing on news, features, and interviews with some of the biggest names in film and TV. On-site, you'll find me marveling at Marvel and providing analysis and room temperature takes on the newest films, Star Wars and, of course, anime. Outside of GR, I love getting lost in a good 100-hour JRPG, Warzone, and kicking back on the (virtual) field with Football Manager. My work has also been featured in OPM, FourFourTwo, and Game Revolution.
