The show's two halves--world mythologies about the afterlife and Freeman's own charming persona--mesh remarkably well. [1/8 Apr 2016, p.100]
Earnest but unlikely to change many hearts or minds, the project rather blandly leverages its celebrity quotient to milk six episodes out of the great mysteries.

SEASON 1
By casting such a wide net, viewers may leave feeling they know a little about a lot.
There’s a kind of joke built into the series, which makes effective use of his sonorous voice and easy-but-earnest style. Unfortunately, Mr. Freeman is also saddled with dialogue that may cause some to lose their faith.
Beautiful choice of images and words. Closer to a pilgrimage than a documentary. Freeman obviously enjoys all his encounters and all he discovered. That's the best part of the serie: to watch a man who can still see wonders.

SEASON 1
Morgan Freeman delivers a personal journey into one of life's greatest journey. It is enlightened by all spiritual aspects, thought provoking and encourages reflection of self. I am looking forward to seeing more from Morgan. His soothing voice and personality make this a new favorite.

SEASON 1
Interesting but data not checked. Christians, Jewish and Muslims do not worship the same God. Christians believe in the trinity therefore Jesus is God. Jewish believe in Ywh only and Muslims believe in Allah. Isaac and Ismail became two nations and God sent Jesus to become human but still divine. Jewish and Muslims believe he was a prophet or do not believe he was the Messiah and are still waiting!

SEASON 1
A politically correct documentary that does not push any boundaries and happy to satisfy the criteria of narration without any scrutiny or validation to reality. Some atheistic views should have been entertained to provide the balance of objective investigation. Naive and superstitious stories with adverse consequences are dealt with as mere banalities that should be be left alone, unchallenged and therefore demand the respect of their bearers!
The show merely survives upon the rich and very human voice of Freeman, which has the ability of transforming the boring routine of reading the phone book into a vivid and epic human experience, not enough though for the series to survive on their own merit and withstand the test of time and intellectual scrutiny.

SEASON 1
Disappointed in this. It's Western centric and mildly Islamaphobic. There's some merit to it, Morgan Freeman is a good host and if you don't know much about the topic already you might learn something, but it's not very informative if you do know anything about the topic and in two episodes they have yet to even mention the name of one of the world's "big 5" religions, while well over half the time has been devoted to Christianity and Judaism.
