TV show description:
This dramatic series revolves around the unscrupulous world of the Greenleaf family and their sprawling Memphis megachurch. Scandalous secrets and lies are as numerous as the faithful.
Born of the church, the Greenleaf family love and care for each other. However, beneath the surface lies a den of iniquity — greed, adultery, sibling rivalry, and conflicting values. This threatens to tear apart the very core of their faith that holds them together.
The Calvary Fellowship World Ministries is headed by Bishop James Greenleaf (Keith David), a charismatic and manipulative leader. His wife, Lady Mae (Lynn Whitfield), stands by his side and is the matriarch of the church and their family.
Jacob Greenleaf (Lamman Rucker) is a ne’er-do-well and the eldest son. He’s married to ambitious and controlling Kerissa (Kim Hawthorne) and they are parents to daughter Zora (Lovie Simone).
Grace “Gigi” Greenleaf (Merle Dandridge) is the estranged middle daughter. She’s returned home after 20 years following the mysterious death of her sister, Faith. Grace’s teenage daughter is Sophia Greenleaf (Desiree Ross).
The Bishop’s youngest daughter, Charity Greenleaf-Satterlee (Deborah Joy Winans), is the church’s Minister of Music. She’s married to Kevin Satterlee (Tye White).
The owner of a blues club, Mavis McCready (Oprah Winfrey) is Lady Mae’s sister and Grace’s close confidant. Robert “Mac” McCready (GregAlan Williams) is Lady Mae’s brother.
Noah Kendall (Benjamin Patterson) is the estate manager of the Greenleaf mansion. He’s engaged to Isabel (Anna Diop), a teacher. Melisse (Terri J. Vaughn) is the estate’s chief housekeeper.
Episode #60 — Behold
Grace and the Greenleaf family must lay the past to rest once and for all as God’s plans for the future unfold.
First aired: August 11, 2020.
What do you think? Do you like the Greenleaf TV show? Do you think it should have ended or been renewed for a sixth season?
I love the show and look forward to the next episode. The characters are very interesting and the writing is excellent. Please don’t cancel this show.
Love the show! Definitely worth a few more seasons! Writing and acting are excellent. The characters are believable. The story line is parallel to what really happens in families on large and small scales.
This show is a keeper! I like that this show (unlike others on OWN), keeps me and perhaps other viewers, engaged. I also think the acting and writing is indeed plausible as it relates to the church. Hope this show has longevity!!!
I love this show! Definitely a keeper!
Please please please keep it.. excellent show.. very well written.. lots of everyday issues, which keeps it interesting…..
Great show! Keep it!
I love thie show. I am intimidating on the finale.
I love the show – my co-workers got me hooked and I am now watching the beginning episodes on “On Demand” – cant wait to see what happens next to this loving but crazy family
Love it.
Awesome show, definitely continue and renew
The show should definitely continue however the characters especially Grace seem to NEVER find a moment of happiness. They can’t all be depressed and serious 24/7 can they?
Love the show!
Love the show keep it coming.
I love the new show ,being a pastors wife I know the truth makes better stories than fiction and the church world has so many things that happen to pull from.
I think the Greenleaf is a welcomed breath of fresh air to network television. It does not shy away from the discord among families or in the church and is a conversation starter for a much needed conversation in the religious community. This show is a must have on the air.
