Hate the anachronistic dialogue and humor
How tough would it have been to use more appropriate language?
shareThe target audience is people who read the Bible.
shareEven the Living Bible isn’t that silly.

That was annoying me too! Lots of anachronistic dialogue present in the third season that I didn't notice in the older ones. I only watched a little bit with my mom, but yeah it bothered me. Still, not a terrible series. I mean, I get what they're trying to do, but it's really unnecessary.

I've only seen the first season and I noticed plenty of it, particularly in the scenes with husbands and wives at home.
Oh, I honestly don't remember. It's been a while since I've watched it.
That's the main reason I don't care for it. The dialogue is too modern. Throwing in "okays" and "yeahs" is too much for me personally. I don't watch depictions of these stories, as a Christian, to be updated. Non Christians don't need it to be dumbed down, just like they try in other more recent historical pieces (fictional or non fictional.)
Seems to be a protestant thing. They think in order for people from 1st century Judea to be "relevant" to modern audiences, they need to talk like 21st century Americans do. I watched some other protestant film, the musical "Journey to Bethlehem", and it had the same issues as The Chosen, but it was magnified 10X.
I agree its annoying and distracting.
