Preacher is such a weird show. A cult classic in the making. I think it's going to take a bit before everyone else catches on and then it's going to be like, "I saw it before anyone else did."

I've read the comic. It doesn't follow the storyline completely but the characters all feel the same. Not a waterdown version of what I read. Especially Cassidy. Shit, this show is worth it for Cassidy alone.

This show doesn't need an intro. Should have kept it to the title card. I loved that BAM! title card BAM! here's the show.

It's weird to see so many characters smoke. Most Americans don't smoke any more. Or at least not in these large numbers. It made sense in the comic since it's about twenty years old. Strange enough, all the British actors smoke like chimneys. They probably love the script being written this way.

This episode has been straight forward. Less weird (lullaby luring in the last episode.) Less bloody (the plane fight). And less twisted (No Arseface this episode.)

It's slower. The last two episodes were a blink and you'll miss a plot point and that plot point is a doozie. This episode was slow. Not bloody aside from Cassidy hitting the Angels with the van. And even then the gore was barely there.
But this was the first episode that wasn't written by Seth and his partner. That's probably why.

Face it, the show is already better written than the entirety of the comic after only three episodes.
All your arguments are "it should be whiter! it should be more like the comic!"
You sound like religious nutjobs.
Why would Jesse be a preacher if he wasn't born into it? In the comic it was basically just as the edgiest thing to do.

>The characters might feel the same

except that they don't. I agree with you but I'll disagree on that one. they have the name and some characteristics, but they're shit without the context.

there's a reason to why cassidy wear the fucking glasses.

When did Tulip became a retard? Where's the excitement of her reunion with Custer in the middle of chaos?

why can't the sheriff be like the one in the book? there's a relevance to him mistreating arseface in the books and being such an asshole himself. why, they, wouldn't imply that a guy ACTUALLY fucked himself when told by the divine voice? It doesn't even show it in the books. But no, they would make a random guy rip his heart off to his mother.

I hated the casting. I hated the story. I hated the way they seemed to think "A PREACHER PREACHER SO WE'LL MAKE LIKE ONE WHOLE SEASON OF CUSTER PREACHING TO THE COMMUNITY" when the community was always shit to begin with and they should've all burned in that church like in the books. The story is perfect because things that eems unimportant will have relevance in the future, why would they ruin for MUH ORIGINAL SCRIPT? they should've done a whole new series about anything else instead of an adaptation, like you've said.

I can see they'll ruin Quincannon. I can feel the shit in the air. Imagine what will be done of Herr Starr.

The only thing I've liked are some Saint of Killer impacting scenes.

It doesn't have to be good. It just has to get eyeballs.
There are a few comics that were crap but people remember them fondly and are under the impression they were good. Preacher is one. Y: The Last Man is a good example of another.

Preacher was like... /b/ for 90s kids. The shock value made it the shit, for them.

So in that flashback jesse shoots the security guard in the head and kills him so he's not just an ex-criminal, but literally a murderer. How can he honestly be a preacher? He seems like a genuine guy but the raging hypocrisy of his life leads me to believe he's a shallow sociopath.

On the one hand I like how The Word is corrupting a bit of Jesse and they're not turning into Monster of the Week where The Word solves everything.

so what's the point then?

The reason he acts the way he does is because of the dark shit underneath and how he doesn't allow himself to believe he could be better. "We're all just assholes, fuck it, let's have fun" in contrast with Jessie. The whole point is his give-no-fucks fun persona has some awful shit attached to it. He's a worm.

People that are watching this are cheering for the backstabbing vampire who has literally sucked dick for heroin, and then didn't even get the heroin

Well at least at first it's ok. He's a fun guy who does genre twists like Dusk Till Dawn (though in the show it does nothing except the "yay rocknroll drunk irish" surface).

But in the comics Jessie's first disliking of him and acceptance is complicated afterwards.

(and god it was infuriating when he turned out to do that tulip shit early on)
>>
>>70793991
Because I wouldn't want Cassidy to touch that Tulip with a ten foot pole

>>70794074
He's a fucking vampire. Why would he suck dick to get heroin and not just take it?

>>70794388
Cassidy may be a vampire, but he's a junkie too. Plus, he only regularly drinks animal blood, and then only to heal himself. From what I understood about the character, he was usually so fucked up on drinking or drugs, that he had a hard time even healing himself. I think he even overdoses and gets buried at one point.
He's not even a vampire the way vampires are usually written. He's just an unkillable prick. He sucked dick because it was the only way to avoid a fight with a person he regularly got heroin from. If you beat up or kill your dealer you're gonna have a hard time getting your shit from then on

This is actually a bit more common than you'd think. Like, when I was a kid there was a guy everyone "knew" was a pedo. The thing is that when you know someone is a pedo, you also know that you should just avoid him. Adults don' leave their kids alone with them and kids know to avoid being alone with them.

It wasn't until people realized that pedos could also be priests or that they sometimes randomly snatched kids from playgrounds and shit that pedos really became a serious concern.

But Jesse was born, at least raised, into religios fanaticism in the comics. The L'Angelles are the fundiest fundies around.

But this guy is a school bus driver! Jesse knows what he is, so why didn't he tell the guy to quit his job AND to stop wanting to fuck lite kids. I get that he's just getting used to his power but still, he should have thought up something better to tell the pedo than tk just forget one girl. I mean, even if he stopped wanting to fuck that one there will always be another.

At one point when going over Cassidy's past that fat bum also said that even being a vampire, his addiction was so severe even that it couldn't help him. He'd eat rats and drink their blood for energy to get more heroin but he'd be a (literal?) walking corpse before that.

>But this guy is a school bus driver!

The school bus driver isn't someone you leave your kids alone with. It's not a position of trust like for example a priest or a teacher, the scary thing about pedos is when they appear to be completely normal.

Now, specifically about that guy. The thing that really got Jesse pumped up wasn't that he was a pedo, yes that's bad, but that he told Jesse that he was having fantasies about a girl while basically having a smile on his face. The idea of some guy wanting forgiveness but not really even remorseful or ashamed of his thoughts

It´s a bit funny than TV show make people be more interested in Cassidy than Jesse.

Why Jesse looks like a nu-male instead of his comic version?
>>
I really hope they make Jody a meth dealer in this instead of a pot farmer. I can even see a blue sky episode coming out of this.
>>
>>70798041
Cassidy could already have his own show at this point. He's a tragic character that has years of fucked up shit through the century. They even made him older in the show to keep his origin the same I'd bet. Can you imagine if the highlander was a degenerate doper his whole life and never really learned to fight?
>>
>>70798192
He steal the show, and the more funny moments are all about him instead of Jesse or Tulip.

The whole idea of a prequel about his character as a degenerate highlander/interview with the vampire feels a lot more interesting than the actual show.

I enjoyed the comic and now I'm enjoying the TV adaption. Some things had to change. It's would be hard to have Cassidy wearing glasses all the time on TV. In the comics they can just draw him from the front or draw in strategically placed shadows.

Thanks for that input guy. You go enjoy GoT now

I read the first issue of the comic and was into it.

Do they dumb it down at all for the Walking Dead audience?

I'm watching the first ep right now and they're really fucking up Jesse.

Jesse was a treat to see in the comics. His John Wayne mentality stripped down to function in the modern world was so well done and he actually felt like a character with a life behind him before it showed his fucked up backstory.

Now he's just a boring dude. Its like they wrote generic-supernatural-tv-show-man and just added all the bare minimum details so that he kinda seems like Jesse.

And what the fuck are they doing with Tulip. Having kids make a bazooka, god this is dumb. Her intro in the comic was a small taste of violence not some shit a five year old would think up.

Like what are we supposed to get from that? That Tulip is a zany violent woman? That's just a dull character, in the comic she was introduced as a woman on real hard times with a checkered past with Jesse that felt real.

Cassidy is great. Wish he would wear the glasses and had this show's Jesse's haircut so he actually looked like Cassidy but eh. The joy of seeing him on screen physically doesn't matter if the character is played right and so far it seems solid. The cow scene seemed right out of the comic.

Maybe they should just make a Cassidy show. He's by far the most successful adaptation-wise and in his standalone attributes/actions. Plus there's enough there with his origin story to show, especially with his old drinking buddies. There should at least be an episode all about his origin.

I get wanting to tell your own story with a source material. Just doing a page-by-page adaptation of the comic would probably be hard to fuck up since its paced so episodically but I get wanting to have your own vision in there.

But this just seems like something I'll end up urging people to avoid if they wanna get into Preacher because, so far, this is really not Preacher.
>>
>>70799228
Look at the Game of Thrones. It's adapting the story. And it's shit. This one is going it's own way and at least it won't have bookfags rage all over every little change.
>>
>>70781222
>caring about how popular it is instead of just enjoying the ride

meh, even if we only get one season it's cool
>>
>>70801079
>Do they dumb it down at all for the Walking Dead audience?

Pretty much they simplified everything, from the story to the characters. Tulip is wrong, not because MUH STRONK WOMYN, but because the comic character was slowly developed on the series and here is lika BAM McGyver with tits.
>>
>>70801692
The diference is GoT books are long and had a lot of details, chage is necesary to adapt it to TV. Not only because most of details are unnecesary, but also because budget.

At this point every change on Preacher is not aimed to cut budget or avoid unnecesary detail, is just changes for the sake of changes. Look at how poorly developed is Tulip here.
>>
I'm going through the first episode with the Seth Rogan and Other Guy commentary and so far it seems like this project was just kind of dropped into their lap.

They were going to have some comic panels intercut with scenes like when Jesse describes beating that guy up but THANK GOD they decided against it.
>>
>>70801639
I agree with everything you've said.
>>
>>70801854
>Slowly developed
She went from " I HATE guns to fucking Annie Oakley instantly. Show tulip has got more room for backstory and development
>>
>>70801854

Chill out faggot, LMAO you clearly hate her because she's black and aggressive. She's awesome in the show, good performance.
>>
About to watch third ep. How was it compared to the first 2 episodes /tv/?

Pls respond

he wasnt born into religion. he became religious after meeting his grandmother, and even then it had to be forced onto him
>>
>>70802948
Better, but still bad
>>
haven't read the comic and like the show so far. dude from Misfits is great

Am I supposed to hate Tulip? inb4 racist/sexist. she seems generic action girl so far, her only motivation is MUH EMOTIONS and being stronk. That might just be because DUDE WEED LMAO man can't write for women.
>>
>>70802948
Slower and less hectic but fleshes out character motivations more so it does its job well
>>
>>70803803

shes an ass in this series. shes much better in the comic
>>

>His John Wayne mentality stripped down to function in the modern world
I thought Jessie still was in his mode (as john wayne told him) "faggot". But apparently not.

>Having kids make a bazooka, god this is dumb. Her intro in the comic was a small taste of violence
that felt really real, specially with Jessie suspicious and concerned. On the show she's feels like Schwarzenegger in the Last Action Hero + bully + date rapist

>had this show's Jesse's haircut
seriously, wtf. On Cassidy it would look like tv's perfectly combed "messy rocknroll" hair, on Jessie here it looks like a boyband who spend hours on it
>>
I would probably watch this if it wasn't on at the exact same time as GOT
>>
>>70804155
you'd be changing a horrible show for a very bad one
>>
>>70802663
>you clearly hate her because she's black and aggressive. She's awesome in the show, good performance.

I didn´t evnr mention the change of race. To me is the most irrelevant change over the character.
>>
>>70802584
>She went from " I HATE guns to fucking Annie Oakley instantly. Show tulip has got more room for backstory and development

Not him, but the whole change of "I hate guns" to Annie Oakley is part of her develpment. Show Tulip didn´t had that, was presented as an insta-win. Right now is the most flat chacter in the show.

This looks like a cult classic in the making, Joe Gilgun is especially top notch but his part in This is England could have told you this much
