As for as Biblical series go, the first three episodes is one of the best I've seen so far. They caveat every episode with a statement that some drama has been added to fill out the story however they have tried to remain biblically accurate overall. Yes there is some additional dialogue and aspects not expressely stated in scripture however I don't think it contradicts anything written. The show is not meant to be a substitute for actually reading the Bible, it's supposed to be entertainment based on the Biblical story. Largely they've done a pretty good job. I see some very petty complaints from those giving bad reviews like Samuel being called a "Seer" rather than a "Prophet". Yet the bible literally says in those days prophets were called seers (1 Samuel 9:9). Enjoy it for what it is, an entertaining biblical adaptation.
