An episode of GSN's American Bible Challenge, due to premiere tomorrow, has been floating around to various reviewers. Poor little me hasn't been let in on the secret because I'm way down the game show pecking order (boo-hoo). But enough self-pity. I'll watch the show tomorrow and post my review.
So far reviews appear to divide along ideological lines. A reviewer's personal opinion of religion seems to dictate how good a review the show gets. That's an obvious temptation (biblical term!) for a show like this. I'll just try to remain as objective as I can. In other words, I'll try to review the show as if they're asking questions about novels or baseball or stamp collecting.
Meanwhile, Jeff Foxworthy has shown up on Fox News' morning show to promo the quizzer. He also tested the three morning hosts on their own Bible knowledge. GSN is pulling out all the stops to launch this project. They're even running four eps of their highest rated show, Steve Harvey's Family Feud, as a lead-in to American Bible Challenge's debut tomorrow night.
