COULD THE END OF DAYS BE NEAR? -- From executive producer Gavin Polone ("Panic Room") and writer/creator David Seltzer ("The Omen") comes "Revelations," a six-hour event series starring Bill Pullman ("Independence Day") as Harvard professor Dr. Richard Massey, an astrophysicist who is certain that all worldly events can be explained by Science. In the series premiere, Dr. Massey is dealing with the tragic murder of his 12-year-old daughter by a maniacal murderer, Isaiah Haden (Michael Massee, "24"), who was captured and imprisoned. After a strange course of events, Massey is challenged by a nun, Sister Josepha Montafiore (Natascha McElhone, "Solaris"), who leads him on a journey through the unfamiliar world of faith. Drawn together by personal tragedy, these unlikely partners -- one who worships God and one who worships Science -- are propelled into a deepening mystery, finding evidence that the world, as predicted by The Book of Revelation, has reached The End of Days. Also starring, Chelsey and Brittney Coyle, Tobin Bell and John Rhys-Davies. TV-14

Note to my officemate: PLEASE SHUT UP NOW. Thank you.
There've been ads for that show all over the subways for weeks now. (And at least one pissy LJ post about the title of the book being Revelation, singular.)

Guess I wasn't paying attention... or took the wrong subways....
Normally I wouldn't care one way or the other about such a show, but given the current political/religious climate in this country I'm a little... annoyed, I guess. I mean, is this gonna be as preachy as those Left Behind books?
This Wednesday.
Already set on the Replay.

I hope not, because it's not really my fandom. But I don't find the existence of the books annoying, I just don't read them.
Maybe I'm still slightly-freaked by today's
Salon
story about the right-wing people who want to turn the US into a theocracy....

How funny is it that the site pass is an ad for
Revelations?
Gah I'm sleepy. Someone smack me around and get my adrenaline back up.
