Preacher – “Pilot”
Preacher unfortunately didn’t always manage to live up to both its initial hype but if anything, it nailed the pilot and made a convincing arguement for Seth Rogen and co., to make a movie version of the popular comic books. Perhaps, if that were the case, it would be able to sustain the tone, narrative and sense of urgency that it lost about a halfway into the season. If you need a refresher however, go back to the pilot which perfectly encapsulated what makes the story and, especially, the characters so enigmatic and captivating. Ruth Negga, Dominic Cooper and particularly Joe Gilgun are excellent as the leading characters and the world so wonderfully built up from the minute the episode starts that we’re instantly intrigued to explore the rest of it- Allyson Johnson
