I just couldn't stomach the whole god thing anymore. It gets much, much worse as the show goes along, to the point that I started feeling as if I'd been suckered by bait-and-switch religious programming. I'm *still* dying to know what happened to that plane, though. That story line is great.

I just finished Season 2. Maybe I won't watch any more. I'm an agnostic and can't really stomach a bunch of religious stuff.

I mean it's still worth watching ... until it sort of tips over. I'm uncomfortable with all that too. I'd much rather religion didn't take itself so seriously. More like Good Omens.

Did I really just spend 62 x 45 min- 1 hr watching that? Yes I did and though I complained then and now, Im not sorry. Was it fine literature? No it was not. Was it superb filmcraft or acting? Its was pretty good. Was it all worth it in the end to watch An…yway yeah, it was. Thanks.
