Read the whole series in high school and I don't think I can ask for more -- perfect casting, biblically accurate details for the important things, and the changes they made to the show only enhances the story.
Some book fans may not be a fan of the changes, but honestly, for me those changes were made to: 1) modernize the show for viewers, 2) flesh out characters, 3) correct some concerning takes the books had (e.g. medusa story).
Only complain I have is I can't get enough of the episodes! I know I will enjoy watching the cast grow up in their roles. I can't wait for season 2!!!!
