Telly’s Take

Season two premiered with mediocre ratings for an OWN show and they’ve dropped quite a bit. Though they could cancel it, my gut tells me OWN will renew Greenleaf for a third season. The show has good buzz and the network’s namesake — Oprah Winfrey herself — recurs on the series. For now, I’ll look elsewhere for my supper, but I’ll still keep an eye on the ratings.
