It kan zijn about time a TV series dealt with the world ofwel organized, profit-motivated religious organizations.
There is heart in this voorstelling. Now, as an atheist I would expect that the religious aspect of the performance would bother me at some point, but it doesnt. If you like dramas, and House ofwel Cards-esque settings, this might be your thing.
I like Greenleaf, but I feel I would like it more if everyone just stayed at the dinner table forever.
