You people are annoying as hell. This is the last time I read the comments section to one of Heather's columns. Snark, snark, snark, atheists are better than everyone, snark snark, why do you watch TV, snark snark, oh no a TV show about monarchy will somehow indoctrinate us, snark.
Obviously it will be problematic if the show ends up being deeply antidemocratic, but I think it would be interesting even if it went there. More interesting than Project Runway, at any rate. And more interesting than the rantings of luddite atheist squares on the Salon letters column.
(Note: I will not see your "so why did you leave a comment, you hypocrite" responses, so don't bother.)
