Drop your nets! Lock up your tax booths! Follow us as we journey into Season 1 of The Chosen. We talk about the elements that make this series different both from past attempts at Biblical dramas and more recent independent faith-based programming. Daring choices abound, starting with its adoption of world-building and multi-thread storytelling techniques used in secular shows such as The Wire, Friday Night Lights and Game of Thrones. Then there's its street-level depiction of 1st Century Capernaum life. Simon Peter is a brawler, gambler and Sabbath-breaker. Matthew is on the autism spectrum. Mary Magdalene is virtually a 13th apostle. So what makes a show about a ragtag group of provincials who decide to follow a Messiah compelling enough to draw more than $10 million in crowdfunding and some 300 million viewers worldwide?
