Product Description
A pill-popping Episcopalian priest, an affair between the clergyman's father and the female church bishop, and a wisecracking Jesus Christ. Is it any wonder that there was so much controversy surrounding the January 2006 debut of The Book of Daniel? The series, which lasted less than a month before NBC canceled it, isn't quite as controversial as it was made out to be. If you take religion out of the mix, you're left with a loving but conflicted family that argues, loves, and tries to make the best of what they have. Aidan Quinn stars as Father Daniel Webster. He's the married father of three children--a gay college student, an adopted Chinese boy, and an artistic 16-year-old girl who resorts to selling pot to save enough money to buy herself a new computer for her Japanese anime-influenced comic drawings. When one of her brothers asks, "You do manga?" Daniel freaks out. "Is that some kind of marijuana?"
