  Sorry to hear someone hurt your imaginary friend’s feelings. But perhaps let him/her speak gor herself. Also, grow up and don’t be a whiny a**hole. Nobody forces anyone to watch a show they don’t like.

  Might have to watch this, if it offends the god squad then I’m into it.

  Yeah, but Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett collaborating produced something better than the Bible, so who cares?

  I haven’t seen it but I’m sure it’s about as reverent as every other show out there. Frankly, who cares?

    I get the feeling some choices in the adaptation were made specifically to annoy conservatives.

    I’m ok with that.

      I would go as far as to say the show is ham fisted about its political stances; it barely attempts to be subtle.

  Some people’s idea of god is comically small.

  I don’t see a problem with it being blasphemy.

  This should get more circulation it might get higher ratings. I always want to know why someone wants to ban something. They wanted to ban Harry Potter not sure if they are part the same group though.

  I just finished Season 2, have to say I enjoyed Season 1 more. Despite what Tennant claims the writers are pretty irreverent about traditional Christian views. He’s probably correct in saying it doesn’t outright promote Satanism, but it certainly takes it lightly. Doesn’t bother me in the least, it’s supposed to be comedic satire. Though if you subscribe to traditional Christian views and have no sense of humor (which there is a dearth of these days), don’t watch that show, it will make you really mad.
