By that point, the confusing and bizarre wackiness they dished out every week just became incredibly hollow.<br /><br />I'm usually torn about writing too much in my reviews, but honestly, this is one of those shows where I feel as though I'd be doing it a disservice by not going deep into every episode. Because there's so much packed into each one. I'm glad I gave it a chance too, and that you are enjoying the reviews.

Thankyou, and thankyou for also wording everything that annoyed me so much with Preacher: a "try-hard thing a show like Preacher would do to be weird and different."<br /><br />Exactly why I was so, so, disappointed in that entire series - and made the last episode into the best episode (only mostly because then it was over). <br /><br />Here, instead, as you've pointed out we have a series that really loves it's source material. Builds on it, mirrors it. It's such a rare thing when you can watch something that consists wholly of essential scenes. Every shot and every word of dialogue moves the story forward. <br /><br />I'm very happy I gave this a chance. Henrik Bennetterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18446577900313568158noreply@blogger.com
