His most recent project, The Studio, landed on AppleTV+ on March 26, while Rogen has also worked on the likes of Pam & Tommy, as well as one one Amazon Prime Video's most popular series -The Boys.

Like Rogen's other projects, there are some famous faces tied to the series. It debuted in 2016 and ended after the release of its fourth season in 2019.
Preacher stars the likes of Dominic Cooper, Joe Gilgun, Presumed Innocent star Ruth Negga, and The Hobbit favorite Graham McTavish.
The synopsis for the series, as per IMDb, reads: "After a supernatural event at his church, a preacher enlists the help of a vampire and his ex to find God."
While it wasn't created by Netflix, all four seasons are currently available to stream on the platform.

If the all-star cast and synopsis hasn't enticed you in yet, maybe Preacher's glowing reviews will.
On a Reddit thread dedicated to TV show suggestions, one fan said of the four-season show: "It has everything a show needs. Tons of action, comedy, some drama. It's totally different from other shows. If you liked The Boys you'll love it."
Another added: "It’s almost as bonkers as the comics. Pretty good show."

"Uninhibited, gory, genuinely creepy and ridiculously good fun," someone gushed.
Another person penned: "A truly amazing show, everything is it's right place and it is never boring."
A different Preacher fan went as far as dubbing the show as the 'best show on television'.

As to why there wasn't a fifth season of the show, it wasn't canceled but instead came to a 'natural conclusion', as Screen Rant put it.
When people raised suspicion that Preacher had been axed, Rogen took to Twitter and said: "It’s not cancelled. It’s just ending."
All four seasons of Preacher are available to stream on Netflix now.
