AMC, which brought you "Breaking Bad" and "The Walking Dead," hopes it has another mega-hit on its hands with "Preacher." The network will test audience reaction with a special sneak preview of the new series Saturday at Uppercut Boxing Gym in Minneapolis. It's the first of four "pop-up" screenings across the country.
The show, based on the '90s comic-book, was developed by Seth Rogen and Evan Golberg. Neither is expected to attend the Saturday event, but it wouldn't be a total shocker if a couple cast members snuck in the back at the last minute.
The series, which stars Dominic Cooper and Joseph Gilgun, debuts May 22.
