With NBC’s “The Book of Daniel” debuting tomorrow night, the Episcopal Church is weighing in on the drama–which centers around an Episcopal priest and his troubled family–via a blog of its own, cleverly titled “The Blog of Daniel<\/a>.” Idol Chatter owes the Church a thank-you for focusing one of the blog’s early postings<\/a> on a piece by yours truly that looks at the controversy<\/a> over the show.<\/p>\n

In related news, said controversy continues: Two NBC affiliates are refusing to show<\/a> “Daniel.” And they’re probably not the only ones who will say no to it.<\/p>\n

And, for one last shameless self-promotional plug: You can check out our reviewer’s assessment of the show here<\/a>, or read my feature on the show–with quotes from the stars–here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
