Loved season one of Preacher, but season 2 is off to a rocky start. Absurdist violence was already a part of the show, but what I saw in this episode just turned me off. The intestine thing - seriously? It wasn't funny, as I suppose it was intended to be. Just gross and offensive. I think they were trying too hard on that one and jumped the shark. And the car scene with 'Come 'on Eileen' didn't really work either. Again, seemed strained, trying too hard. Hopefully it's just an opening hiccup, and things will get better. If there's much more of this stuff, I'll probably stop watching.
