It appears (from the "This season, on Kings" montage) that David is going to sleep with the entire royal family, except the Queen.

I … do not disapprove of this, as the basis for a television show which I will watch every week.

The show is fairly, er, stylized. Those of you with sensitive ears for dialogue may wish to stay away. Those of us who disapprove of silly special effects may wish to stay away also. They're doing sort of a fine line on the question of God, where stuff happens that is somewhat difficult to explain without supernatural influence, but nothing like a helpful miracle, at least not tonight.

What I don't understand is ( spoiler )

It looks like a good time may be had by all. I approve of Eamonn Walker as Rev. Samuel, and, according to Wikipedia, there will be some other exciting actors participating: Miguel Ferrer and Macaulay Caulkin.

This week, I intend to read 1 and 2 Samuel. I had really intended to read before the premiere, so I would not be shocked, shocked! by things like David sleeping with the entire royal family. Except the Queen. Didn't get around to it. Now I will make the time.

P.S. Queen Rose is probably my favorite.

P.P.S. Jonathan, er, that is to say, Jack is canonically gay. :) But tragically closeted. D:

P.P.P.S Silas/Samuel: Are they Magneto/Professor X or Professor X/Magneto? You decide!
