Overall, Preacher is a delightfully inventive, fast-paced, visceral, in-your-face display of television that's here to shake up your weekly routine. There's definitely going to be moments where you have to suspend your disbelief more than usual, but that's all part of the fun.
If you haven't read the comics, there's no need to worry about feeling lost when you start watching Preacher, since a lot of things that work on the page don't necessarily work on screen, and the show's writers appear to be taking quite a few liberties with its source material. Conversely, if you have read the comics, there's also no need to despair — the core characters and themes that you love are very much present in the TV adaptation, even if it's not exactly what you've been expecting.
