Critic Reviews

Gloria Goodale

Only an actress of sublime abilities could lift this material from the downright silly to something intriguingly watchable. Read full review

Rob Owen

Writer/creator Nancy Miller ("Any Day Now") imbues the show with touches both subtle and a little overwrought but the divine "Grace" still offers stronger characters and better stories than many other summer series. Read full review

Brian Lowry

The show's blessings, however, are more earthy - beginning with Hunter, who oozes anger, sexuality and irreverence, sometimes all at once. San Giacomo is perfectly cast as her friend and sounding board, and Johnson, Rippy and Woodbine all deliver solid support, with the jailhouse sequences among the show's best. Read full review

Flak Magazine James Norton

The acting is strong, the music is good, and the show's not likely to leave many viewers lacking an opinion. Read full review

Mary McNamara

[Hunter] captures well the worn-to-the-bone, irritable and slightly skanky buzz of a person living on too little sleep and too many medicinally applied Cokes, while infusing her character with a gentle heart and a sudden, dazzling smile. But much of the rest of the show is tediously familiar. Read full review

Hal Boedeker

Hunter is so good that she may save this erratic show. Read full review

Robert Abele

Hunter seems to mostly flail in a show that is too unremarkable for her talents. Read full review

Great show. Too bad it gets low ratings just because it is about faith and values that is tring to avoid violence against our partners ourselves and women... that comes up with schemes giving us ideas on how to be better at betrayal, deceipt, causing quarrels heart ache and despair but aGreat show.

I wanted so bad to like this show because I love HH, and I will continue to watch it, but it is so shallow. The writers never take time to develop either the personal spiritual journey of Grace or the criminal cases; so as a result, both suffer. The spiritual journey is by far more I wanted so bad to like this show because I love HH, and I will continue to watch it, but it is so shallow. The writers never take time to develop either the personal spiritual journey of Grace or the criminal cases; so as a result, both suffer. The spiritual journey is by far more interesting than the mundane crime solving storylines. And, what's up with last night's line of her asking a dog if he was God? Please, people, just because it's God spelled backward doesn't mean you have to be so hard up that you make it part of the script.… Expand

Disappointing! Holly Hunter is a good actress trying to push some sort of mythical envelope. I would hate to see any of the characters in this show try to deal with any criminal activity anywhere. If the Oklahoma City Police Department is anything like this bunch of oversexed, Disappointing! Holly Hunter is a good actress trying to push some sort of mythical envelope.

Hunter is swearing, drug addicted, slutty cop who we can't root for.

I did not get beyond the opening scene because it was offensive. I thought "I'm not going to watch this trash" and turned off my t.v. I had hopes that this show would be worth watching - it is not.
