CBS Is Turning ‘Living Biblically’ Into a Sitcom

What would it be like to live as “biblically” as possible for an entire year? Well, that’s the premise of a forthcoming TV comedy produced by The Big Bang Theory’s Johnny Galecki (Leonard). The show is based on a 2007 experiment from author A.J. Jacobs—chronicled in his book The Year of Living Biblically—in which the writer attempted to follow every command in the Bible as literally as possible for 365 consecutive days. And by “literally as possible,” we do mean as literally as possible: This includes dressing, eating, talking and grooming only as the Bible describes. There’s no word yet on a release date for the show.
