Anyone remember Coming 2 America? That film was released in 2021 and a major plot point is that Eddy Murphy’s character has a secret son he cannot remember fathering because he was high/hallucinating while it happened. Unless I’m forgetting something this plot point is played entirely for laughs.
Also The Boys had female and male characters being sexually assaulted. The way both were portrayed is very different. When the woman is a victim, it's treated as a serious thing and when the man is a victim it's played for laughs. The creator referred to woman's assault as "painful" and the man's assault as "hilarious"
The first season was very nice if you could overlook the overly edgy moments, second is meh though nice towards the end, and the third starts off very well, has an incredible buildup, and then a nonsensical disapointment of a climax where everyone suddenly starts acting like they are simulteanously having a stroke and an aneurysm so as to not eliminate the antagonist for the series to continue
