Shales in WaPo: 'Book of Daniel': A Mean-Spirited, Unholy Mess

Ah, crap, I was looking forward to this as it sounded very promising--especially when a couple of local NBC affiliates canceled it due to Donald Wildmon's pressure: "I cannot recall a series in which a greater number of characters seemed so desperately detestable -- a series with a larger population of loathsome dolts. There ought to be a worse punishment than cancellation for a show that tries this hard to be offensive and, even at that crass task, manages to fail."
