The series would benefit from investing more in each character's agenda to make the story arcs a lot more compelling. From a "Christian universe" standpoint, though, House of David is a leap forward that has the potential to burst out of its faith-based bubble.

The show isn’t preachy; it just depicts characters deeply concerned with God’s intentions, as makes sense for their time and place. (The Kingdom as depicted is not based in much verified history and does not correspond precisely to the modern state of Israel, though the timeframe is about a millennium before the birth of Christ.) It is, however, wooden and cheap-looking, humorless and dull.
