Tragic end for Book of Daniel and Nothing Sacred


The narrow-minded Religious Right helped kill two daring shows about Christianity, B.O.D. and N.S. I would have watched either show instead of crap like Dancing with the Stars or American Idol. I guess you can't be cutting edge and controversial when it comes to Christianity. You can only be light and fluffy, like Seventh Heaven or Touched by an Angel.

The reason the shows were yanked off the air was whoever produced them went out of his or her way to offend people.

You ask for trouble - you get trouble!!!

Oh give me a break...Im finishing the DVD of B.O.D right now and there is nothing offensive about it...People need to realize that the fantasy world they lived in for centuries is over, Peaople have been gay since Roman times and Pot grows from the earth, DEAL WITH IT PEOPLE

I agree the show was not in any way offensive. Not to me anyway. It's too bad this show was not on HBO or Showtime. Then the show would not have had this pressure and been off the air.

The show had it's share of quirks that is for sure. But that's what I found appealing. So Daniel was addicted to vicodin. A lot of priests are alcoholics. There is substance abuse in this world.

Years later, but your comment is pretty damn funny. One needn't go out of their way to offend folks during these fractious times. Just showing up is enough; your comment illustrates that perfectly.

The show was fun, different, and provocative. Something the far religious right cannot abide. It's all about the "shalt nots."
