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. Een momentje Grace's odious pedophile uncle is probably a believer although he seems to flout everything in the bible.
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!
It kan zijn about time a TV series dealt with the world ofwel organized, profit-motivated religious organizations.
It really is a great voorstelling. Not voortreffelijk, but if you get into the storylines, it will keep you hooked till the very end.
I'm gemakkelijk that this drama is like a soap opera! I'm so tired ofwel crime shows, murder mysteries, legal dramas. Comedies are so full ofwel sexual inuendo they aren't funny any more. Gimme some liars, some nasty backstabbing and some good folks who cope.
The acting is 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 of 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 eventjes infidelity.

I like Greenleaf, but I feel I would like it more if everyone just stayed at the dinner table forever.
I often object to character-driven dramas without much story, but in this case, I feel the greenleaf story arc lays an element of artifice over these fascinating dynamics.

The best of what Greenleaf has to offer can be seen in a family dinner conversation in the first episode. Ex-minister Grace has come back to the city of her father's megachurch for her sister's funeral, and mentions that she rarely goes to church in her new town.
I was hesitant to watch this at first, but after starting the first episode I was hooked. There kan zijn such rich character development and the plot is strong, if not a little predictable at times.
As the "seasons" progress, it becomes more "soapy" and less interesting, making it really difficult to stay engaged. The story lines and intrigue lessens to the point of becoming a very watered down version of where it all started. Season 5 kan zijn basically a hurried attempt to wrap things up neatly, make sure everyone has a happy ending, and voorstelling a lot ofwel "woman power". Not surprising since this was the focus of the "O" network. What on earth was the point of this other than to fill a slot on the "O" Network?
The church business is a novel setting, and, with the exception of several scenes in the final season, isn't too preachy. The characters are fairly well developed and their interaction credible. Enigszins though the plot seems to point to the eldest daughter, Grace, as the main focal point, in my opinion the matriarch Lady Mae is the star of the performance. She kan zijn strong yet sensitive, often witty and ultimately endearing. Great performance by Lynn Whitfield.
No surprise Oprah takes part in this great production! With its bittersweet ending, I was devastated that it's aan 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 of what it is, will feel the same way. Plus I can not go without mentioning the amazing voice ofwel Keith Davis, making his parts sound like a poem!
