It might be interesting - but if it conflicts with Survivor there's no way I'm watching it.
That is not my point, they put the "questioners" on as bait.
Well sure they're on there as bait, they want people to watch their show. All I was saying was that I'd seen that particular woman on a UK debate show and she seemed to know what she was talking about with regards to the debates she was participating in. I'm not even 100% on whether she's a theist or not, all I know is that she was defending the skeptical/atheist side. I assume she is but you know what happens when you ass-u-me.
As for whether the show itself is geared toward a skeptical viewpoint or not, I don't necessarily know that that can be determined until the first episode airs; teasers for new programs can be misleading.
FYI, I looked it up and it looks like it's airing on the US West coast on History Channel at 7pm on Wednesday the 13th.
Teenaged X-Files obsession + Bermuda Triangle episode + Self-led school research project = Atheist.
