By the way...

... The Book of Daniel was HORRIBLE. Truly wretched. They were trying to portray the clergy family as "real people," but Hollywood's perception of real people is sensationalized. But what really irritated me was Father Daniel's sermon at the beginning; it was a ridiculous caricature of progressive Christianity - or rather, what some conservative Christians perceive to be liberal Christianity. "Maybe sin isn't so bad" or something like that. Blech. I would prefer that television and film writers just refrain from portraying "liberal" Christians if they're going to paint them as theologically bankrupt.

Blech, blech, blech.

You get total agreement from me. I missed the first part and I still thought it was terrible.

The full recap posted today on TWoP. I read it, and... let's just say the suck comes through even when one is not physically watching the show. I hope it gets canceled, and right fast.
