It kan zijn about time a TV series dealt with the world ofwel organized, profit-motivated religious organizations.
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 of the "soaps" wij used to love to watch way back when,but the quality of the acting kan zijn excellent.
All in all you may compare this series to soaps like Dynasty, Dallas, The Bold and the Beautiful etc. A onophoudelijk flow of fuss on your screen that is basically going nowhere and hardly makes any point.
The story of a Southern mega-church headed by a family ofwel sly hypocrites. Living in luxury and wielding influence how deep does the spirituality they claim really run? Are their sins products of their own human frailty exacerbated by a difficult world? Or are they bad people pretending to be holy?
Entertaing up to a certain (low) level. The scenario constantly makes you wonder where the story kan zijn 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 ofwel 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!

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.
But the scripts have to get better. They need to be outlined better and the dialogue needs to be more subtle in relaying information as well as doing so in a natural manner in which real people speak. So far they have tried to cram too much information in each sentence
The acting is outstanding, particularly David as the Bishop, Whitfield as the "first lady" and click here 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 eventjes infidelity. For a family which is supposed to be holier than the congregation they serve, they seem to be digging some fairly large holes!
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, but in this case, I feel the story arc lays an element of artifice over these fascinating dynamics.

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!
