'OF KINGS AND PROPHETS'
ABC'S NEW EPIC TV SERIES
Arriving to us as one of the first of the new historical series this Spring, ABC's midseason epic series OF KINGS AND PROPHETS is ready to bring swords and sandals to the small screens March 8th beginning its Tuesday evening airing. It will be an epic biblical saga of faith, ambition and betrayal as told through the eyes of the battle weary King Saul, the resentful prophet Samuel and the resourceful young shepherd David -- all on a collision course with destiny that will change the world. Although based on an Old
Testament story the producers promise a sex drenched series filled with explicitly racy scenes, describing one of the world’s first soap operas.
