Kathryn A Slow and tedious. I was interested in the story but it was painful to get through. Editing/shooting/direction feel clumsy. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 10/02/24 Full Review prawnda s it's above average for when it came out, but for a show that's not even meant to be consumed by religious people, it's drearily adhered to religious themes and aesthetics. the cowboy rhetoric is slow and pointless, and watching it in 2024 just feels like a chore. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/15/24 Full Review Alan K Ok it strayed from the comics but it's still so so much better than 99% of the drivel being made. Watch it and be entertained or reflect internally on how much of downer you may have become. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/29/24 Full Review Musa K The violence is too much but actually I like it, Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/24/24 Full Review Lukas-Jeremie K Like "The Boys," "Preacher" is based on a comic of the same name by author Garth Ennis. Since both series are from the same creators, "Preacher" can be seen as a kind of blueprint for "The Boys". Both series are extremely absurd, filled with dark humor and, above all, bloody. While I loved "The Boys," I just couldn't really get into "Preacher," even after 12 episodes. Here and there some scenes are very entertaining and funny, but all in all I couldn't really demand much from the series - perhaps the series works better if you know the comic books, but I see it as someone who hasn't read the books Most of the time I just have monotonous characters and a boring story. The series also created Tulip, probably the most annoying character I've ever seen in a series. At least the special effects are pretty good. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/14/23 Full Review Michael Antony A Mikey's Review: PREACHER (2016-2019) The original, classic, almost flawless Garth Ennis / Steve Dillon story only provides the basis for this darkly funny and wildly irreverent TV interpretation. Producer Seth Rogan obviously has a deep respect for the source material, but not at the expense of character development or of pushing the boundaries just that little bit further. The sluggish pace could benefit occasionally from a 'quick edit' injection, but aesthetically the sweltering Texas / New Orleans mood is captured in every frame. The three main leads - Dominic Cooper as Jesse Custer, Ruth Negga as Tulip O'Hare and Joe Gilgun as Cassidy - appear born to play these roles, but the huge supporting cast is great too. Ian Colletti makes for a sympathetic Eugene 'Arseface' Root and Pip Torrens is an exceptionally amusing Herr Starr. The fact that the series is quite its own thing means a foreknowledge of the comic lore isn't a requirement, although the 9 Book series is certainly worth a read... so what are you waiting for?
