So much potential in this show. From the amazing writing to beautiful cinematography and perfect casting. Re-imagining stories from the bible in this fashion is a phenomenal idea. I've been dreaming about a series like this ever since I was a kid in Jewish school. These stories are bloody, gruesome, and filled with drama and turmoil with epic resolutions. You can easily turn many tales into modern-day epics. Kings is obviously the story with the most character intrigue, but imagine a long epic of Joshua, recanting the bloody wars and killing in the name of creating a nation and identity. Or the story of Purim as a several season arc.
It's a shame this show is now lost in history. NBC should have at least given the series another season to prove it had an audience. Instead, it was a victim of the early TV streaming days, where Hulu viewership would not count for NBC's ad revenue (even though it was one of the most popular shows on the streaming site). It deserved to at least have a grand conclusion.
