So first, the show. It's pretty subtle and almost dry humor that makes me think of something like The Office or BBC comedy. I really enjoy that stuff but it's not going to be to everyone's cup of tea. I really enjoyed the plot and found it comical but also made you think a little. Daniel Radcliff stands out a lot in this show but the core co-stars don't get drowned out and play their roles very well. But, if you've seen other things Daniel has done it's on par with that. Sort of a B show, performing arts feel to it. Really great but not something kids will be talking about all over school or the buzz of the office. Niche audience if you will. To the people saying "it's blasphemous", you're a joke. You have zero clue what your afterlife is like. The Bible and religion is constantly updating and changing with time. How many things now has The Pope changed because God told him "it's okay now"? Which of the several iterations of the Bible do you read? For all you know, your Heaven has "upgraded" and this is how it's run, just stop. I promise there is not a single one of you out there that does not commit at least one sin on a daily basis. This is entertainment. Shut your mouth, enjoy the show, ask for forgiveness later. Watching and enjoying this won't be what keeps you from getting through the pearly gates, I promise.

This show is so amazing and weird. Each season is completely different: first you have the God and Angels Season, and then the middle ages season and then the 1960s retro western season and finally the Mad Max Season. I love this show because you never know what to expect. Literally, I never have any idea about what is going to happen except that there will be a love story. I wish more shows would just let their creators run wild. Based on the writing of Simon Rich. Check him out

Great show! The first season was very flat, funny but no real substance. I'm sure it pissed off the hard core christeans, I thought it was pretty funny.... now season 2 is airing and its very dark age ... not so blasphemous... and seems to be focused more on human rights. Though I think its funnier than last season.
