Grace Hanadarko (Holly Hunter) is an Oklahoma City police detective, a hopeless drunk, a slut, and a mess. She is given a chance to redeem herself by an angel named Earl (Leon Rippy). Police tech Rhetta Rodriguez (Laura San Giacomo) is her best friend.
She is haunted by many things that has happened in her life. She does a lot of wild and crazy stuff. And she solves a lot of crime. This is a police procedural wrapped in a redemption theme. It's about salvation. It gets dark. It's funny. There's a lot of things going on. And it's not like most other shows. Holly Hunter is at the heart of this show. She drives the show. I'm glad they gave it a full 3 seasons to finish up the series.

I think that Saving Grace is a part of that current successful plot (bad ass woman working to put everything in order) chosen by TNT to be massive produced and follow the success of The Closer. That's so that way that the creator and the main writer is the same for both series: Nancy Miller. But that's OK, the show stills being a little original, and that's what matters to me.
I can understand why some people are not liking this series so much, I think that perhaps is its southern, pure, dirty and incredulous way to be crude and straight on the stories, something that's not so common on television these days. From the past few years people are forgetting how to produce TV shows, making the shows looks so plastic and fictional that when a realistic series is on TV, people prefer to change the channel. OK, Saving Grace isn't that realistic because there's an angel on it with wings, but the show is working with realistic matters, personal problems and sins (or what we call sins) from different point of views of a few saints and sinners (or what we call saints and sinners). At the same way these are also the same reasons why some other people are liking this show so much.
That's nice to know that this show is getting some attention by now because it has an interesting plot, an amazing cast and dialogs a lot unconventional treating your brains the way it should be treated. This show is not for kids, teenagers, housewives or businessman, but for those audiences looking for something a little different like each one of us. The characters have very well designed personalities and no one is perfect, even Earl, the angel. So, who is right and who is wrong?

I first started watching "Saving Grace" because of Holly Hunter. She is one of my favorite actors, and I don't miss anything she's in.
The show caught me off guard with the rawness of the characters. I know nothing of Oklahoma, so I didn't notice the stereotypes. I appreciated the honesty of the characters. Flawed relationships, unhealthy relationships, work partners turning into bed partners. I think it happens more in law enforcement and medical facilities than most places. Watching the team interact is pretty much on point. I like that.
I also like seeing women over forty acting in a good series. I don't have to watch the twenty-somethings strut around reciting lines as if they were still first year drama students. Lorraine Toussaint and Lauren San Giacomo are wonderful in their supporting roles. I get to see three women who's work I admire and respect.
The subtle religious message is presented in a way that is inoffensive but definitely present. I find Earl to be like John Travolta's Michael, but not nearly as annoying. He's a flawed angel, but not in a way that makes you ask, "How can HE be an angle?!" All I can say is thank whatever deity is listening for giving Ms. Hunter the courage to push forward with this project, and the viewers who gave it a chance.

Cheesy premise that shouldn't fool viewers. This is a really interesting, complete, intense, and sensual t.v. series.
Holly Hunter once again demonstrates she's an excellent actress and manages to carry this show on her shoulders.
The whole "angel" plot thing gives equilibrium to the movie but shouldn't be considered as an important aspect for the show, it's just a supporting situation that serves as Grace's conscience.
The show was an edge, it's smart, aggressive, offensive, but witty.
I can surely say that this show deserves another chance and have more promotion.
I was really impressed with the pace of the show and it's complex situations that get resolved in great manner.
Please watch this show with very low expectations and you might surprise yourself.
