Interesting,

Should be a good series Neal, I'm just hoping they don't try to spice it up with the sort of adult material they used in series such as Spartacus.

Sailor Steve · 03-03-13, 12:02 PM

I don't think that is likely, since virtually everyone involved seems to be a devout Christian.

My worry is the limited time they have to tell all those stories.

Hadn't heard of this. I tend not to pay much attention to the history channel.

Set the DVR.

Least it's not another show about swamp people or gator hunting..

Buddahaid · 03-03-13, 01:41 PM

No, but I bet for every hour it's on there will be only twenty minutes of content, twenty minutes of recap and coming up next, and twenty minutes of comercials for Rosetta Stone and Christian Mingle.

Stealhead · 03-03-13, 03:24 PM

History also has a mini-series about the Vikings coming out.

Bet the adds will be Volvo and Ikea.

AMAN to that!!

The trouble with Hollywoods "Tales of the Bible" is that they never seem to get the details right.

If your going to make a film about the Bible then maybe you should read the Bible.

That's generally been my experience with the History Channel, Military Channel, Discovery Channel, National Geographic Channel, etc; 20 minutes of actual content for every 60 minutes of programing. This is why I continue to support PBS.
