First Episode, The Bible

If you don't take it too seriously and see it as Bible-based entertainment, I liked it a lot.  "Noah was a Scotsman" was brilliant!  Abraham looked nothing like I imagined him to look, which was good.  Moses was good as well.  Perhaps the most whimsical part was one of the three messengers pulling his two swords from his back and fighting the Sodomites like Bruce Lee.  The computer graphics of the Burning Bush and the Parting of the Red Sea were well done.  Again, it's entertainment, don't take it too seriously.  I'll watch it next week, Lord Willing...

I saw the 2nd hour of the 1st episode

From Moses to Joshua.

The book is better but I thought it was well done.
