Riiiight because there is nothing like that in the Bible...

Well, it was ok. Nothing really stood out as far as drama or acting. Pretty much a by the numbers adaptation. Too bad they have to rush through the stories, this would have been better as a Game of Thrones-type series.

I saw just a tad of it tonight. Recorded it for later playback.
One thing that hit me right off was that "their" Moses looked about half the age of the Moses of the Bible. Moses was 80 when he went back to Egypt, this guy is not even close to that. Oh well, Hollywood.

I watched about an hour, but ended up turning it off. They skipped over too much stuff for my liking.

I watched Vikings too. Not sure if I'm going to stick with it either. It looks like just a straight up drama program that happens to be set in Viking times.

Looks good, but I´d much rather watch Vikings.

Moses is recorded to have died at 120. At 80, he was 2/3 of the way through his life. With men dying in their 70's now - a 40-50 yr old Moses would be about right....
