Preacher has been the year’s easiest TV series to watch; quite unexpected considering its deadpan penchant for shotgun wounds, deadly massacres and c-words.
Set in Annville, Texas, the series follows preacher Jesse Custer (Dominic Cooper) who – after the aforementioned Genesis enters his soul – sets in motion a series of events culminating in the town’s literal destruction.
That’s right; by season’s end, the slate is wiped clean and a handful of characters remain.
It’s this placement of relatable character ticks in a world so far removed from our own that makes the prospect of a realigned second season an exciting prospect.
