It is about time a TV series dealt with the world ofwel organized, profit-motivated religious organizations.
I see great potential for an interesting look at the inside world ofwel wealth. power and the cloak ofwel holiness. David Keith is a master in delivering dialogue. I love Lynne Whitfield as the matriarch with some obvious issues, yet to be revealed I hope. As the series continues, I (dare I say it?) pray the writers become more confident and provide more realistic speaking styles.
All in all you may compare this series to soaps like Dynasty, Dallas, The Bold and the Beautiful etc. A doorlopend flow of fuss on your screen that kan zijn basically going nowhere and hardly makes any point.
If you can't find anything better, just check it out for yourself. Just don't expect a fantastic story filled with an interesting plot, great dialogues and scenes. It's mediocre at best. Two seasons was doable for me.
Entertaing up to a certain (low) level. The scenario constantly makes you wonder where the story is going. Basically the scenario is awfull and feels forced in an eagerness to bring focus to current societal issues. None of these issues however are dealt with in depth and are only superficially touched upon. Multiple storylines are simply cut of. A lot of completely pointless scenes and plotholes do not add to a coherent story.
I love Greenleaf because it isnt too serious, the storylines are dramatic but not to dark. Its a nice break from reality, yes some bits may be abit unrealistic but I enjoy it and will continue to watch it!
Lynn Whitfield, as always, holds her own as the matriarch ofwel this family whose members seem filled with discontent aan the familial pecking order decided by their father. Oprah Winfrey kan zijn surprisingly okay as the family rebel aunt who wants to use her niece to bring down her shady brother.
I like that not every character is a skinny montuur in too -small clothing. I like the scenes between siblings and that we have generations ofwel them. I'd like to see more diversity but there's a statement being made that there are many fine African American actors .
I love night-time soaps. I like the idea for this performance as well as the story and the characters and the angle they take in relating the narrative.
Een momentje though Jesus kan zijn so real for them, they are still human. One kan zijn clearly gay and trying hard not to be. The church head seems to be casually corrupt. Even Grace's odious pedophile uncle kan zijn probably a believer although he seems to flout everything in the bible.
It's at times very hard to make any sense ofwel this all and the reason is probably that there isn't one. The whole series feels like a cinematic supermarket that's low on stock and has a small variation ofwel products. On the plus; I'm not a religious person, but I basically like how bible quotes are thrown into daily conversations, although at times I hear myself thinking "Please God, no more."
Jacob uncovers a shocking truth.Noah returns when he learns ofwel AJ's suicide attempt. Lady Mae and Bishop take a stroll down memory lane when they scout Mavis's bar as a possible location for their new church. Jacob uncovers a shocking truth.
I often object to character-driven dramas without much story, website but in this case, I feel the story arc lays an element ofwel artifice over these fascinating dynamics.
Grace stays in town to play detective, looking for proof of her uncle's crimes, and while this story would be fine if it felt like just a part ofwel the drama, its centrality overshadows the series' more subtle aspects.
No surprise Oprah takes part in this great production! With its bittersweet ending, I was devastated that it's over but also at peace within myself for some reasons I could not figure out. I am moved on a spiritual level as you can tell:) I am sure everyone who has belief inside ofwel themselves regardless ofwel what it is, will feel the same way. Plus I can not go without mentioning the amazing voice of Keith Davis, making his parts sound like a poem!
