Just fantastic
Not woke at all. I usually don’t like shows like this, but was told I needed to give it a try. Great acting and directing. Great job of giving the characters personality that are each unique and believable. Also supporting funny.

A genuine masterpiece
This is my favourite TV show now! Zero wokeness in it and brings the New Testament to life. Even if you are not a Christian it provides an educational and well-written account of the times of Jesus, whilst being entertaining at the same time.
They make it clear it is an interpretation so they have 'filled in the gaps' in some areas and added some back stories to characters which helps you get more invested in character development. It's a window into what it could have been like (through the lens of the English speaking world) and they follow the biblical stories very closely and accurately. They also encourage you to read the gospels for yourself which is great advice.
Overall, it is truly a joy to watch a show that inspires me and to be immersed in a world due to the fantastic writing- an increasing rareness these days!

Jesus is the way
Very binge worthy. Some odd casting choices though. Obviously not done to be woke, but Joseph was black? They couldn't cast him in another role and someone Jewish or Middle Eastern for Joseph like the rest of the disciples and main cast? Super odd.
