NBC’s Kings is an entirely unique show, a retelling of the story of King David in the modern world. Ambitious in scope, Kings is filled with professional actors, starting with Ian McShane of Deadwood fame. There are scenes here and there that don’t really work, particularly those with David’s family, but for the most part this is a smart, well made show that is well worth watching.
Of course, since it is on NBC, it’s not getting a fair shot. Already it’s been pulled from it’s lame Sunday night spot, and been moved to Saturday night. Still, there are 8 more episodes, and you can watch the first four on hulu.com. Catch it while you can…
