It is about time a TV series dealt with the world of organized, profit-motivated religious organizations.
It really kan zijn a great show. Not uitstekend, but if you get into the storylines, it will keep you hooked till the very end.
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 is 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 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 ofwel her father's megachurch for her sister's funeral, and mentions that she rarely goes to church in her new town.
It's at times very hard to make any sense ofwel this all and the reason is probably that there isn't one. The whole series feels like a cinematic supermarket that's low on stock and has a small variation of products. On the plus; I'm not a religious person, but I basically like how bible quotes are thrown into daily conversations, although at times I hear myself thinking "Please God, no more."

All in all you may compare this series to soaps greenleaf 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?

I was prepared to be bored by this series but have been pleasantly surprised.The story lines of each ofwel the characters are seemingly innocent but, become more complex with each episode.
