Biblical workplace comedy The Promised Land to stream on Prime Video
The faith-based comedy series The Promised Land is scheduled to debut on Prime Video in the United States on November 15. Created by Mitch Hudson, an assistant director for The Chosen, the show reimagines the biblical account of the Exodus as a workplace comedy, drawing stylistic inspiration from shows like The Office. The narrative follows Moses as he navigates the challenges of leading a group of Israelites who struggle with the practical realities of their journey through the wilderness.
Originally launched on YouTube in 2024, the series has gained significant traction, with distributors reporting that each episode has exceeded 1 million views and the project has reached over 150 million cumulative impressions. Hudson, a professing Christian, stated that his goal is to create content that remains reverent to Scripture while exploring the human elements of the biblical story. He noted that the show has found a particularly strong audience among younger viewers who are familiar with both the biblical narrative and modern workplace comedy tropes.
