The creator of the Eric Kripke series went to Instagram on Tuesday to announce that the shooting of the fifth and last season of the show ended. There, he shared an image of himself overlooking the infamous meeting room of the seven where the group of seven quips (AKA superhero) meets.
“This is the last time that I will be on this set. It will soon be demolished. It is soft to be, but my main feeling is gratitude,” wrote the showrunner. “We have the best casting, the best crew, the most fun story to write, and something that is impossible to predict: good timing. You expect your whole career to have two of these things, if you are lucky. We have them all.”
Kripke then shared gratitude for the distribution, crew and fans of the show, writing: “To #Theboys Family: Thank you, I love you all. Fans: Thank you for watching, I can’t wait for you to see the grand finale. It is an envelopment.”

The fourth season of the show ended last summer in mid-July, although it was announced before its first that the series would end with season five. Once the news broke out, Kripke said The Hollywood Reporter He always knew that he “wanted to finish him throughout the five season”.
“I don’t know why I love the number five so much; it’s a good round number where you have enough,” he added. “It may be because I was trained as a television writer and there were five acts. It gives you enough time to know the characters. You can have your time calm before time, which is the kind of season four for me. I say calm … You know what I mean. It is the characters and then you launch in an climax.”
