Well, I get that with the first two episodes. They were very disjointed. But since ep 3, it's been flowing really well.

I'm just catching up on this past Sundays episode. The place where the cowboy angels catch the bus?

The same spot Jesse was waiting for his ride when he figured out what Walt did.

I don't think it was a bag - it looked very much like a big American flag.

Which means it could have been those children at the schoolhouse with the big flag waving out front.

Figures. I watched the first one and a half episodes before losing interest, and I watched the most recent one in full. I have no idea what's going on.

I can't fault you for that at all. It really did get better at the story telling aspect at #3. You should go back and start from there.

This show really is entertaining as hell. The story is coming along fine but my favorite part is how wild the ride is.

I may do that, because right now it's just disjointed violence to me. I am intrigued by the two cowboys trying to decide whether to go to heaven or hell.

Spoiler questions!!













Who/what is the travel agent lady?
Did they buy tickets to that particular room of hell? Knowingly?
The "angel hand" that Cassidy tosses up from the grave. Is that a hand from one of the angels after he killed them the first time in the church to rescue Jesse?

Third question - Yes.

First question - I dunno. I read it as just a quirky take on the Preacher universe, where even a small-town travel agent would be versed in the booking rates of a trip to hell. Nothing serious. Just something that exists in that reality but not ours.

Second question - I guess we don't know, do we?

Well this show took a turn for the better in episode six. Been badass ever since. That 9th episode was awesome. The Saint is a badass character.

Probably a demon. However, there is a small chance she's the Angel of Death.

Pretty sure it was just to hell. I'm assuming angels can navigate Hell.

I'm still not sure I get the arc of the Saint. He was ruthless when he returned to Ratwater, but he wasn't some amazing killing machine like he was portrayed in the show. He was sent to hell for massacring everyone in the town. It's in Hell that he becomes the Saint, but what happened in Hell is quite different.

Yeah, I'm not sure how some of the long term storylines are going to work with them changing his story like that. I'm guessing they are planning on changing things up quite a bit, or it will seem kinda dumb.

You ever see something that is just awesome and you can't explain why it is awesome, it just is?

That is Preacher to me.

Awesome finale.

Jackie Earle Hayley is hilarious in this I hope his character didn't die in the methane explosion but who knows. "The God of meat"

So what all got destroyed by the explosion? It looked like after the explosion they were in the same town diner they've always been in.

Well, that season finale was pretty good.

Basically all of Annville. The news report stated that "no one could have survived that." Or something along those lines.

Just started reading the first few issues of the comics. It seems as the finale takes place right around the start of the comic series.
