I saw the first episode. I'm intrigued. I have no idea where this is going. I think the Jesus parallels are obvious and intentional but it also seems that he wants to work within all religions.

I'm a Michelle Monaghan fan. She's on the edge of getting long in the tooth so have to enjoy her while I can

I talk to him. He thinks you suck. He also said you need to grow up and stop watching comic book movies

I finished the season. It definitely doesn't suck.

I think it was an interesting international spy show with some religious themes

"Some" religious themes? It's called Messiah.

You could have placed Jason Bourne very easily as a character in this show. I'd say Indiana Jones has some religious themes. Al-Masih isn't the star of this show.

Ryan Pace thought this thread was about (Pro Bowl QB) Trubisky.

It's completely about religious themes. And by the end of season 1, they are almost out of non-believer characters.

You don't think the geo political themes are at least equally if not more heavy?

We've gotten through a season and the messiah could just as easily be a Russian spy as a religious leader.

The geopolitical themes are secondary and they are getting knocked out of the box one by one.

Spoiler alert

Are we supposed to think it's believable that the Israeli Mossad guy will continue to be a non-believer? Because that WON'T be credible.
