The prayers of Preacher fans have been answered. Today, AMC announced they’ve renewed the series for a second season.
Based on the comic by Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon, the comic-drama follows Jesse Custer (Dominic Cooper), a small-town Texas preacher who becomes possessed by a mysterious and powerful force. The cast also includes Ruth Negga, Lucy Griffiths, W. Earl Brown, and Joseph Gilgun.
Only five episodes into its first season, Preacher hasn’t been receiving the highest ratings. So far, the series has earned an average of .66 in the 18-49 demo and 1.755 million viewers.
From AMC President Charlie Collier:
‘Preacher’ is a special television program and we’re eager to share with fans the rest of this wild first season and, now, an expanded second season. What Sam [Catlin], Seth [Rogen], Evan [Goldberg] and the entire creative team have achieved in bringing Garth Ennis’ graphic novel to the screen is extraordinary. We look forward to more time with these unforgettable characters be it in Heaven, Hell, Texas or beyond.”
What do you think? Are you watching Preacher? Are you glad the series has been renewed?

I love Preacher! Hopefully it will renew for many seasons!
Yes the show is awesome I love it definitely renew for season 2 give me a hell yeah!!!
Great show!! Just needs time.
Great show. All my friends up here in Canada are raving about it. Love the southern flare. An outlandish cast with a matter of fact take on the life around them. Good job. Not many shows where I can get lost in the moment and forget about life for awhile. Once you see one, you want to see more. My oh my, take me somewhere twisted and away to relax for awhile. SEASON 3 PLEASE…
Oooooooo…..I was SO incredibly mad when I found out that one of my new Favorite shows was cancelled!
I instantly fell in love with more than one character. The acting was done so well. Photography? GREAT! And the setting always made my feel creepy, hot and thirsty. Well done!
Please do this to me every week for a very long time.
Thank the Lord for the creators, actors and all those in the background who have brought so much enjoyment into the lives of others.
Need more Preacher!!! Loved it so far. I’m a senior and never read the graphics but thought the first season was awesomely funny and twisted! Love Dominic’s character! Season 3 please! Can’t wait to see see season 2.
Yes this show needs to be on thru the end…I can’t get enough…
Yes I love the show it is totally different!! Growing up in church I am always interested in religious based TV shows I love all the charters.
Love this show! Can’t wait to see it again.
love the show….I really hope it keeps rolling
Please keep it coming. Need some good feeling in the darkness
We are so glad it will be coming back. Alot of shows were canceled that shouldnt have been. Preacher is one of our favorites.
I watched the entire season and streamed it. Started Friday and just finished Monday morning. It started out with promise but then it started to fizzle. By the time I was at episode 9 I was thinking can I just finish this already? Then there’s the last episode….just wow…. Everything fell apart….this show sucks and I won’t be returning for season 2. Never have I watched an entire season of a show to end up hating it before. That was a first for me. What a let down 🙁
Hilarious. Did not start off strong but it definitely pulls you in. Absolutely looking forward to Season 2!!
