The pilot for Preacher aired this past Sunday, but in case you missed it, Sony Pictures Home Entertainment uploaded the entire episode for free on YouTube. It’s also available as a free download on iTunes and Amazon.
Before you dive in, it’s worth noting that the pilot is over an hour long, whereas the rest of the episodes are closer to 40 minutes without commercials.
