Johnny Sorrow Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I'm probably the worlds biggest Preacher fan, I still reread it on the regular. I love it, warts and all. And I've loved how they've been weaving together stories and narratives from the comics. And this season is fucking "Angelville", and it's been outstanding so far. Betty Buckley as Gran'ma has been unbelievable, and the takes on Jody and TC are fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I've never read any of Preacher, but I dig the show. I'm really liking this Angelville arc so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Sorrow Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Holy shit, this last episode was awesome. In one episode they debuted John Wayne, the coffin, Les Infants de Sange, Granma being bald, Humperdido, The Grail abducting Cassidy, and the Highfather...complete with vomit.

Brian Fowler Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 At least two of those things had shown up before, but it was great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Sorrow Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Wait, which two? And we can openly talk about it. Fuck this spoiler shit. No one is talking about it and it aired yesterday. We only heard the coffin mentioned before, not seen, this was the first time Granma took off her wig, John Wayne debuted here, they mentioned Humperdido before but he hadn't been seen, and the abduction and Les Infants debuted here at the same time.

Johnny Sorrow Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Also, this season has established Tulip as a bad ass on the highest level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was already well established last season. This one just goes even further with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Sorrow Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 I totally forgot they showed Humperdido. As for Granma, I'm the comics when you first see her she's bald and grotesque. She never wears a wig. I thought they were just going to go with her having hair, so when the wig came off I was like, "AHA!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 They showed the coffin last season as well, albeit without explaining it. This show remains fantastically weird. It's kinda like Preacher but different in so many spots. I was really shocked they suddenly dropped the whole John Wayne thing in this late into the game.

Johnny Sorrow Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 It's tremendous. It's made with love for the source material. And it reminds me of Arrow. Stay with me. The first few seasons of Arrow were intentionaly very loose with it being a comic book show. It took awhile before it had enough audience to become a full fledged comic book show. The first two seasons of Preacher took their time molding the material and finding an audience while giving the comics fans enough, and so far this season has been a full fledged "Hey, this is all from the comics pretty much, including some actual dialogue."

Cliff Hanger Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Graham McTavish was announced for Dragon Con today, and I am at a loss for whether I want to get him to sign my Saint of Killers #1 that Garth signed ages ago, or get him and Colleen O'Shaughnessy (Jan) to both sign my Earth's Mightiest Heroes season 1 (he was Loki) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Sorrow Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Holy shit, that episode was just balls out 100 percent Preacher, motherfuckers. Damn. Betty Buckley deserves an Emmy for this. It'll never happen, but that's a fact. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Sorrow Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 God damn, that was awesome. I was grinning from ear to ear the whole time. The Jesse/ Jody fight couldn't have been better. I geeked out for the "Kinda Dif'ernt" bit. And this season did the impossible and made TC sympathetic. It was amazing and an amazing performance, to boot. And now we got Masada and Frankie the Eunuch next season! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, that was probably the most impressive bit of writing this season. Loved this season. I really hope this show only goes a few more seasons though. I really want to see how they wrap the show up before they either get canceled prematurely or hang on too long and the writing goes downhill (or someone crucial leaves the cast). I kinda wonder how long Dominic Cooper (or more likely, a stylist who works for the studio) has to spend to keep his hair looking like that. Lol, even being put in a coffin and sunk to the bottom of a swamp, then escaping by blowing up the coffin and swimming to the surface of said swamp, couldn't damage Jesse's hair. God damn!

Dog Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I never read the books, so going in cold, I liked the first season but was pretty bored by the second. The latter half of the third season was really well-paced, though, and a lot of things were paid off in the last couple episodes. Loved it.

Coletti Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 I like shows ending before petering out. Legion is done this season as well, hopefully both go out on top. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Sorrow Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 I really think they've done everything important. This season looks like a mix of Masada and the final arc, and they'll probably do Cassidy's origin. There's really not much left. I mean, there's no way they were going to do Jesus De Sade.
