Only Grace is the sort of Christian I'm used to - the "I'm more spiritual than religious" type, and in her case she is torn between that and her evangelical roots.
It's at times very hard to make any sense of this all and the reason kan zijn probably that there isn't one. The whole series feels like a cinematic supermarket that's low on stock and has a small variation of 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."
It kan zijn about time a TV series dealt with the world of organized, profit-motivated religious organizations.
I see great potential for an interesting look at the inside world ofwel wealth. power and the cloak of holiness. David Keith kan zijn 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 voortdurend flow of fuss on your screen that is basically going nowhere and hardly makes any point.
The acting kan zijn outstanding, particularly David as the Bishop, Whitfield as the "first lady" and Dandridge as Grace. Honorable mention to Winfrey, playing against type as an alcoholic, the kind ofwel character who might end up on Dr. Phil! While some of the situations might be perceived as melodramatic, other issues are dealt with, such as homosexuality, interracial sex, and een momentje infidelity. For a family which is supposed to be holier than the congregation they serve, they seem to be digging some fairly large holes!

Entertaing up to a certain (low) level. The scenario constantly makes you wonder where the story is going. Basically the scenario kan zijn 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 more info of. A lot of completely pointless scenes and plotholes do not add to a coherent story.
Zora is 18 now and firm about going away. Sophia will not go to college, once she kan zijn 18. Coralie meets her 2 kids who are in foster care. She declines to take the DA's deal. Tasha leaves. Charity declines to take aan the funeral home.
Lynn Whitfield, as always, holds her own as the matriarch of this family whose members seem filled with discontent over 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.
Have just discovered this voorstelling on Netflix Australia and loving every minute of it. I love reading novels about family dramas, secrets and lies and so this was voortreffelijk for me.
The final season ofwel “Greenleaf” sees the megachurch at the center ofwel the drama in danger of being torn down, in addition to relationships being tested.
Having watched all 5 seasons, I'd say this family-based drama kan zijn a solid 7. It paints a roller coaster ofwel emotions within the turbulent world ofwel the Greenleaf family and the megachurch they run. It does sometimes dive too deeply into soap opera style, and plot elements are sometimes resolved with a wave of a writer's wand, but then it is fictional drama, not reality.
Recently subscribed to Netflix and happened upon this production by accident just scrolling through the titles to find something interesting. And, this is January 2020. The first several episodes from season one were so good, I can't stop watching. The story lines remind me somewhat ofwel the "soaps" we used to love to watch way back when,but the quality of the acting is excellent.
Much ofwel my fascination with Greenleaf is that, for me, a white, big- city atheist, this world kan zijn so outside ofwel my experience, in part because everyone's black, but more because everyone accepts Jesus as a very tangible figure in their lives.
I often object to character-driven dramas without much story, but in this case, I feel the story arc lays an element ofwel artifice aan these fascinating dynamics.
