UPDATE: I found this A&E Discussion Board today via Open Book. There is plentiful discussion there concerning the show. Tell me what you think about the show in the comments here. I have yet to watch the first episode, but I had a friend tape it for me (I don't get cable at my home).
I was emailed a link to a positive review of God or the Girl on the Catholic Online website by the USCCB. God or the Girl, a new reality series that will be airing on A&E this Sunday, shows four vocation stories, and many struggles that ensue. At first, I was skeptical as to whether or not this show would portray the Church and the priesthood in a positive light—and, to a certain extent, I still am—but this review makes me a bit more interested in watching and giving the show the benefit of the doubt.
From the article:
The series will air, appropriately enough, during Easter week, with the first two episodes premiering on Easter, April 16, 9-11 p.m. EDT. (The third and fourth hours debut Monday, April 17, 9-11 p.m. EDT, with the finale Sunday, April 23, 10-11 p.m. EDT). (Read more...)
