Another social casualty...

there was a resurrection....

Well, it's not like you can just kill off the main character! Oh. Wait...

Never mind.

Hmm, between the Big Kahuna as a distant father figure and Abraham being set to sacrifice Isaac, I think there's plenty of gist for Joss' Daddy motif there.

You know I wanted to go there, but thought the whole JC card was a little much. Glad some out there are evil heathens such as myself.

Anyone think the rising on Easter thing was kind of an asspull on God's part?

No, I truly believe he had every detail of all 7 seasons and the spin off planned from the outset. Nothing was made up on an "as needed" basis.

Did anyone else think that the later episodes of the Bible went totally downhill.

What do you guys point to as the exact moment that the Bible jumped shark...I would point to David and Goliath. The guy who played David was way to bulked up and big to be David. I wasn't buying it, plus Goliath totally wore lifts.

John the Baptist. Fortunately, they recast the role of messiah with somebody less freakass and were able to salvage a good chunk of the new testament.

Revelation was just too depressing. I'm glad they cancelled the series after that.

I still think that the Bible had the most realistic looking CGI to date. I had a hard time believing that bush wasn't actually burning, but instead SFX.

Parting the red sea will probably win them an Emmy for SFX. I can't wait to get the first season of the old testament DVD's and see the making of that episode....

I heard that God was going to do the commentaries for Genesis(with Camden Toy(who was the snake), Deuteronomy, Samuel Pt 1 & 2(with the writer Samuel), and Leviticus.

I have heard that even though Kings 1 & 2 aired during season 2, they had season one production numbers. FOX really had to think long and hard before renewing it after lackluster ratings from the first season. That may have actually been the first and last time they showed patience for a new show.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

What do you guys point to as the exact moment that the Bible jumped shark...

Noah's Ark. Because, dude, it was a total reset.

And if God had to destroy the world because it was so damn bad, and *He* was the one who made the world, I think that says something about the craftsmanship....

When it became the St. Paul show. Early on you had the nice back story (Roman legionnaire, zapped/converted on the road to Damascus), he was a nice recurring character, but then... epistle this, epistle that, force fed Paulist doctrine. And, dude, Mary Magdalene never loved you. JCnMm4eva!!1!
