Better Goff Dead

I'm intrigued by this series so far, and the 3-episode slow drip might be a good strategy that Gunn is trying out.

I didn't know how much this "chunk" release would work out, but it appears it is intentional for storylines, which makes sense.

Cena as a solo hero is working out good, not great yet I feel personally, but Jennifer Holland and Steve Agee are definitely punching above their weight so far in both the comedy and storyline aspects.

I'll be watching the next block of episodes coming out; it's probably the best series on Max Originals/Warner to date.

I laughed the most during Better Goff Dead. Peacemaker was entertaining the first two episodes but episode two dragged a little. Episode three starts things off right out the gate with the mission to take out the senator. The the jokes are consistent throughout the episode. Dialogue is sharp and Peacemakers naivete makes the proceeding all the more hilarious. Loved the weird sci-fi vibes watching the butterflies during the steakout. Judomaster and Peacemaker talking trash to each other was the highlight for me. Nearly pissed myself. In my opinion Better Goff Dead is the best episode of the three initially released.

Though this is the episode that finally starts to explain some major plot points, the episode itself feels a little flat and washed as it follows a very common sequence of actions that has been used a million times over in other shows. The violence is abundant though and for those that came for that, there is plenty of fun.

...there are at least a little bit more than short sequences with action and some more plot and story, but still the infantile and stupid humor. For example: I like female anatomy as much as the next guy, but in the scene in the car I would say that it is used out of place and in a speculative and childish way.

I'm really enjoying this adaption of Peacemaker, and I am glad the Charlton Comics characters are finally starting to get their due. John Cena makes a great Peacemaker. Peacemaker and Vigilante make a nice duo. I never read the Vigilante comic book, but this characterization by Freddie Stroma now has me interested in the DC character. The introduction of Judomaster is a welcome addition also. The supporting cast is nicely gelling too. It's a very funny series.
