Has EWTN joined the 21st Century? :)


To be honest, I usually only watch EWTN when I'm trying to fall asleep, since the voices, music, and graphics on their channel are usually either nondescript, soothing, boring, or some combination of the three... (with the exception being Fr. Corapi, who has a voice created to preach).

Anyway, I just caught a quick clip from their latest creation, "Crossing the Goal", a show about masculine spirituality based on a sports desk/talk show concept. The good news: it actually looks like somebody put away their 1990's floppy disk with "Catholic Clip Art for Classy Bulletins" and handed the concept/design over to a legit graphic artist.

You can check it out here:

I'll have to try watching a whole episode to see if it's engaging. I wonder if they'll feature "player profiles" or "sideline commentary"...instead of just hanging out in their fancy studio sound stage.
