reminds me of preacher
only on ep2 so far but reminds me of that quirky wait ….wha. thing Dispatches from Elsewhere had. havent watched preacher yet , but its on the list! lol
No, Preacher has a good story.
This is a nutty, crazy dark sendup of religion, social media, and herd mentality, if that combo makes any sense at all. I get whiffs of shows like “Preacher” and “Wynonna Earp” which included magic, absurdity, kooky characters, and flashbacks, all of which made the viewer wonder who, and what, was legit. I’ve watched four episodes and each one is more surreal than the last. I think I’d call it an acquired taste.
Have you acquired it? we tend to agree on most shows, tough no on all. I bypassed this show on a lot of occasions, just figured it was not for me, but only looked at the thumbnail, but now that I looked at the thumbnail, I’m thinking I might just get a kick out of it.
My PT recently got upgraded to the point where they are really working my arm/shoulder for real now, and the first time was right painful, second time was not quite so bad, but 5 more weeks of that, and they said I can start trying to work on my writing again, doing some of the stuff I was doing prior to the surgery again, so starting Monday early I might give that a shot, see what happens.
Will mean a bit less watching time eventually, after I’m totally healed, but some of the few shows that I do still watch are coming to an end and need replacements, and this might be a good one. I like the premise….
Hi, Grey. I’m so happy to hear that your shoulder is coming along well. Rehab is painful AF but yeah, there’s no way around it and it does pay off! I know you must be antsy for it to be over…!
As for this show, a lot of it is the writers trying hard to surprise and sometimes shock, but it manages to be satirical through it all. I keep being reminded of “Preacher” with its absurdity and odd characters you really couldn’t pigeonhole in any satisfactory way. I guess I have to say that, while I’m not in love with the characters, I’m going to stay with the show to learn more about the social-media angle that’s such a big part of the plot.
LOL I wouldn’t mind seeing The Saint of Killers show up here (remember him from Preacher? He was a blast. He’d fit right in with this lunacy.)
Yup, I remember. And yeah, sure enough would fit in. I kinda liked ‘Preacher’, which really surprised me more then a little. The Earp thing lost me though after the first season, started out pretty good, then kinda crapped the bed. Same thing with the Van Helsing one that they had going that had the female lead. Started off really good, then just got stupid.
Yeah, shoulder is doing a lot better now, but when I get done doing my time with this, I will be going back for another round for the tendon issues in my left leg. Been getting pretty rough, and has progressed. Got the recommendation, but they couldn’t let me do both the same day, and can’t do PT 4 days a week.
The guy doing my shoulder is pretty cool though, gave me 6 exercises to do for the lag at home one day, extra duty, and have been doing that for about a week, and it’s really helped, leg pain has gone down a lot and am walking better. Should be in a lot better shape by the time I get done with the shoulder and then can work on the leg.
I really got to stop getting older. I get any worse, I’ll be like the freaking Crypt Keeper, little hunks dropping off herer and there..🤣
Hahahahaha!
If you are a fan of the work of Mel 🅱️rooks, or Woody 🅰️llen,circa 1970’s this show is a perfect fit for that audience. Got to be in the right frame of mind
Agreed; this is intelligent absurdist fiction that sucks you in, Damon Lindelof has done it again.
Looking forward to watching this.
