So, am I the only one that has no idea what "The Book of Daniel" is?

[qnr]

The only place I've heard about it is on DU.

7. Well, I do know what a Tivo is, at least. Even though I don't watch TV

:hi:

2. It's a partly satirical show on NBC

about an Episcopal priest and his dysfunctional family, and his little side chats with Jesus. :-)

4. ah - thanks

3. I feel so depraved

Wait... deprived... I meant deprived!

5. No--you are

not alone. All I know about it is(a) there is some controversy about it; (b) on some DU thread there were a bunch of quotes from "people of the cloth" decrying it as insulting to their religious beliefs. Personally, I could care less about the B of D.

6. Good. I don't feel like a total pariah :) n/t

12. Same here

I have no interest in watching, it's looks just plain silly to me. x(

8. It's about a minister

who is addicted to Vicodin. His wife drinks, his daughter sells pot, his son is a gay Republican, his other son is a horny teenager and his mom is so senile she doesn't know him. His bro in law took off with $2 million of the church's money.

And he talks to Jesus.

9. Sounds more like a reality show based in rural OK n/t
