    Whatever your religious beliefs--or lack thereof--The American Bible Challenge is good for the soul. It's also the best new game show in years.

    While the Bible might seem like tricky turf for a TV show, the execution makes it comfortable for all but the most rigid Puritan.

    GSN's new game show, The American Bible Challenge, is just as dull as it sounds, like mandatory fun time at Sunday school.
