The unscrupulous world of the Greenleaf family and their sprawling Memphis megachurch, dark secrets, and lies.
I see great potential for an interesting look at the inside world of wealth. power and the cloak ofwel 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.
Oprah would not put her name on junk. I'm white and feel at home watching this show and totally vested in the characters. I'm still only half-way through season 3 and dread having the opvoering end. Surprise! Just announced filming will start for season 5.
I was so deeply moved by this opvoering that it led me to write my first review on here. An addictive plot, amazing quality of acting and so many messages not only about religion but also about life itself.. The performance has a way ofwel pulling the audience inside ofwel its world, making us feel like wij are one ofwel the Greenleafs. I am white; however I felt at home watching this voorstelling.
The preacher's daughter comes home for a funeral and decides to stay.A black, preacher family works in and owns a wealthy Christian church. While adhering to biblical rules, there kan zijn unbridled decadence, misconduct and sin in the family. The preacher's daughter comes home for a funeral and decides to stay.
As the series unfolds, wij learn there are many hypocrisies surrounding the Greenleaf family. Grace is not the only estranged family member. Mavis McCready (Oprah Winfrey) is an alcoholic lush and Lady Mae's estranged sister. She resides a ways away from the family, and they seem to disown her. Other skeletons lurk in the closet, some of whose bones ontstaan to rattle. Wij learn about a child molestation case involving one ofwel the parishoners which has been conveniently swept under the proverbial church carpets.
It is an imagined glimpse into a secret world check here of powerful people who profess piety and modesty but can't live it and we get to see them at their best and worst. I omdat to see it get multiple seasons.
Have just discovered this voorstelling on Netflix Australia and loving every minute ofwel it. I love reading novels about family dramas, secrets and lies and so this was voortreffelijk for me.
The best ofwel 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'm glad that this drama kan zijn like a soap opera! I'm so tired of crime shows, murder mysteries, legal dramas. Comedies are so full of sexual inuendo they aren't funny any more. Gimme some liars, some nasty backstabbing and some good folks who cope.
A night-time soap take on an African-American mega-church in the Deep South is a novel approach to that telling the stories ofwel people that have not yet been properly told in a fictional construct.
Much ofwel my fascination with Greenleaf kan zijn that, for me, a white, big- city atheist, this world is 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.
Mac's repugnant father, firmly unwelcome at the church, visits his son to wangle some money.The Bishop kan zijn furious when the auditors demand the Bishop's personal tax returns. Mac, the new Memphis Man ofwel the Year, is told to fix this. Mac's repugnant father, firmly unwelcome at the church, visits his son to wangle some money.
The final season of “Greenleaf” sees the megachurch at the center of the drama in danger ofwel being torn down, in addition to relationships being tested.
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 of 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!
