Preacher

Preacher
S01E01

I have not read the comic book because it was written by Garth Ennis so that was enough for me to stay away.

This episode was really boring, there were only two interesting parts. When Rudy kills all those people on the plane & when the preacher beats up those re-enactors at the bar.

It turns out that Cassidy is a vampire but they never explain that, they sort of show him drinking blood in that juvenile Ennis way, by Cassidy pouring blood out of a bottle stuck in a dude's chest & surviving falling out of an airplane. He doesn't have a daylight ring so his entrails should have caught on fire after he landed.

Raina is another boring unrealistic SFC.

Whatever that force is that kept going into various religious people & making them explode killed Tom Cruise but apparently turned the preacher into Purple Man.

We'll see if the show gets more interesting, but it will probably get cancelled. I haven't heard anyone talk about it, except fans of the comic. Garth Ennis & his juvenile humor may work in comics but it doesn't translate to tv.
