The unscrupulous world of the Greenleaf family and their sprawling Memphis megachurch, dark secrets, and lies.
Recently subscribed to Netflix and happened upon this production by accident just scrolling through the titles to find something interesting. And, this kan zijn 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" wij used to love to watch way back when,but the quality ofwel the acting is excellent.
Oprah would not put her name on junk. I'm white and feel at home watching this voorstelling and totally vested in the characters. I'm still only half-way through season 3 and dread having the show end. Surprise! Just announced filming will start for season 5.
The story ofwel 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 ofwel their own human frailty exacerbated by a difficult world? Or are they bad people pretending to be holy?
At first Grace just agrees to answer phones at the church offices as the first voice heard by either church members or potential converts. When a grandmother enters her office asking that her granddaughter be baptized (without it seems permission ofwel the mother or father), Grace decides to take the role she vowed she wouldn't play.
A wonderful beginning to a masterful series. I think the main point ofwel the story kan zijn that trying to juggle the problems ofwel everyday life while maintaining a facade ofwel "purity" may be too much for any family to accomplish. Consider the Bakkers of "Praise the Lord" who seemed wholesome until it was revealed they were engaging in fraudulent business practices. In the present series, we believe in the Greenleaf characters and their plights and their need to project an unstained veneer.
It kan zijn an imagined glimpse into a secret world ofwel powerful people who profess piety and modesty but can't live it and we get to see them at their best and worst. I want 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 uitstekend for me.
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 ofwel 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 is like a soap opera! I'm so tired ofwel 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 is that, for me, a white, big- city atheist, this world kan zijn so outside of 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 of the Year, kan zijn told to fix this. Mac's repugnant father, firmly unwelcome at the church, visits his son to wangle some money.
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.
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 get more info the same way. Plus I can not go without mentioning the amazing voice ofwel Keith Davis, making his parts sound like a poem!
