Well, I am back to review Season 3. I hated season one, found season 2 somewhat funny, but this season is very funny, very dark and well acted. Everyone seems so natural in their roles -- but Daniel Radcliffe just kills it as a minister. I think they finally found their writing niche.

Seeing as how each season is a different show almost I am going to give it a chance. Season one was bland and not worth it. Don't watch season one. Don't judge it by season one. Season 2 was some of the greatest writing on tv. The jokes make every person who get it laugh.
This show isn't for everyone. It doesn't have a laugh track to follow along with. The actors don't give unnatural pauses to allow people to ponder if the line was a joke and audio cues that it was. The jokes are dry and can be missed. They make fun of modern society but in the context of the ancient setting.

I feel like the dry and dark humor is lost on many but I found it rather enjoyable.

Watched exactly 3 episodes of this gawd awful show, and didn't return for more. The writing just got worse and worse as the episodes aired. Radcliffe and Buscemi must really need the money to be in this horrid series, as it didn't produce even one good laugh. Ugh.

I'm watching this ONLY for Daniel Radcliffe and he is really the only awesome thing about it. The writing is not all that funny.

I tried, because I like Daniel Radcliffe and Steve Buscemi in just about anything -- but not this. It was just too weird for me and the jokes aren't funny nor is the premise. Oh well, maybe others will like it.
