Its insanely good, if they keep this quality up for a couple more seasons this will be one of the all time great shows, cant believe they did justice to the comic like this.

Man it's so good this season. First season was a total struggle. Paying off now. So much going on in this episode. Love it!!

Very hard to get people to watch it. It's like The Leftovers all over again, lol.

PirateShampoo

I thought this episode was brilliant, loving the who Hell story arc, I could watch a session of that alone.

Slydice

Again, much improved episode style and structure.

Where was all this stuff in season 1?


Obligatory..

Elvisjuice

another cracking episode , hell is odd as ****

GottaGetGatt

Loved this scene

I think all of us (the converted ) are pretty happy with Season 2 of preacher. But, the ratings have fallen off a cliff. S3 must be in doubt.

Slydice

Awe wow, I hadn't been keeping an eye on the ratings but yeah..

According to the wiki link the anniversary of the first renewal has passed. Not a great sign.

This week's was a bit of a dud. The cowboy showing up before the credits is old hat.

Clareman

That was a waste of an episode, what was it supposed to show us? That they were trying for a kid, didn't work and they went their separate ways?

Back to the odd pacing I had an issue with in Season 1, but sure we'll see if it starts back up next week.

Enjoyable episode. Should take the

cowboy out of it for a while

Not sure where it's going next though.

Slydice

Maybe some development of this Japanese crowd or maybe back to hell?

Heir Star stole the show for me this week. He had me genuinely laughing.

Yeah enjoyed it, but

pushing the guy off the roof and shooting his last competitor were hardly shocks

The made the point on the AV club review that the joke was how obvious it was what would happen.

Really enjoying this season. Season 1 had its flaws, it's a better show when it concentrates on the three leads.

Glebee

Really very late to the party on the show. Watched the first 4 episodes overthe weekend and am defo going to stick with it...

CastorTroy

I think I may be done. The latest episode is sitting there waiting to be watched and I can't bring myself to watch it

Grayditch

I thought the latest one was dull.

Avatar MIA

It was more slowly paced, but I enjoyed it. In particular, I'm liking the Eugene subplot. I think

Hitler might be making a play to come back to Earth

I'm resigned to it being the last series as no sign of renewal.

I think where Preacher falls flat is when it focused on people outside of the main three cast. Eugene just isn't interesting enough.

Even the Preacher isn't interesting enough. Cassidy and Tulip road trip is where it's at.

Personally my least favorite bits are the bits between Tulip and Jesse. I'm bored of that sort of 'troubled relationship' dynamic in TV shows at this stage, it's never interesting.

I'd agree. I think they've failed to produce any actual chemistry. Even Eugene in hell is more interesting and I don't think that's great. Cassidy and Denis, I like.

The show got such a shot in the arm with the huge chunk of Herr Starr scenes which were fantastic, but then instantly headed into another slowdown.

Scrappy aul show, but this season is better at least.

Agree with you here, i love the personal visions of hell, but can't figure out what a Viennese coffee shop would be top of his personal hell. Maybe it was his happiest time, therefore hell to relive it?

Going by the character he is in Preacher, he possibly rues how differently his life could have gone. If only he was able to draw/paint people :pac:

I would imagine he set up a meeting with the Jewish art dealer in the corner, who subsequently went on to reject his work... And the rest is history

You think that's bad, look back at the scene where Jessie is smooching the young wan in Eugene's hell. He looked well awkward Ruth must have been just standing off camera ! :pac:

Yes, it's just getting going, but likely coming to an end.

readyletsgo

There has been 2 or 3 bad episodes this season but I hope they get a 3rd season after this season. 5 episodes left I think?

What's the ratings like? Prob in the toilet as I don't hear anyone talking about it outside boards tbh.

Slydice

Haven't watched the latest yet but Yeah continuing downwards..
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preacher_(TV_series)

Season 1 went all 2.38 down to a low of 1.14 to finish at 1.72 million

Season 2.. 1.69 hitting a low of 0.99 million recently

readyletsgo

Better than leftovers. Might get a final season out of AMC. Fingers crossed

I assume the poster is referring to the show's ratings.

Slydice

I've not watched the leftovers but wow, it took a clobbering in its second season:

It's unreal. Justin Theroux is excellent.

Lol yeah that's what I meant. The Leftovers was this generations Twin Peaks, but no body watched it.

Amazing show.

Just seems to be going in circular motions

Not official confirmation but it looks like there COULD be a Season 3 http://www.spoilertv.com/2017/08/preacher-renewed-for-3rd-season.html

pickarooney

Did anyone watch the finale? Bit of a damp squib, I kind of turned out half way through.

readyletsgo

finale?
I thought that was next week?
