    My favorite scenes of this show are the ones where the group is hanging out at the bar they go to. Most police shows insist that the characters on them "are a family" and yet you rarely if ever see them just hanging out together. On this show there are long scenes where they are just enjoying each others company. You believe these people are friends. Holly Hunter is brilliant in the roll of a troubled alcoholic detective. This show will not be for anyone whose eyes bleed at sexual content because there is a great deal of it as well as swearing and drinking. However if you love a police show that tells an actual story with the main characters being more important then the cases they solve this is for you.

    I just stumbled on this little gem of a show during a surgery recuperation, on Netflix. Whatta barrel of fun!! Some really GREAT acting and wonderful story lines. With the world of crime and the wealth of human flaws abounding, there must've been enough material to keep it going for years. Did the actors just get tired of it? It looked like they really loved their work... If the network just quit on it, this was a major error in judgment--ala Star Trek and Longmire.... What's with these executive jerks who are all too ready to sacrifice quality for big bucks?? I guess that's why the reality shows are making it--all money, LOW cost and zero substance...Anyway, if votes are being cast and counted, count mine as a "please bring it back, SOOOOON"....

    Saving Grace is one of the most well written, well shot, well casted shows that ever was. It is a crying shame that it had to end so soon. Every episode was crafted to develop characters (make you fall in love with each one), develop story (drag you into the world of each character), and make you question reality (develop a consciousness for the unknown, which mass-media/Hollywood usually does not, without adding an agenda). On a personal note, I love Holly Hunter. She is a genius. I would love to meet her and pick her brain! I would also love to meet the writers, producers and directors, and/or work with them at some point in my life. The only beefs I have with this show is its' short life and the last episode. I have tried to imagine a better ending, and cannot come up with one on my own, but I know in my heart, that there should have been more justice done for the lead character, regardless of budget and any other matters. By the way I have seen all three seasons 5 times, working on the sixth, and still trying to pinpoint all things that make this show as wonderful as it is, in hopes that I may create something as equally great one day.

    Holly Hunter's the best white lady actress on television.I hope we all know that, but just in case we don't, I'm sayin' it.I adore this show. I wrote three essays about it after the series finale just so that I could get some sleep after, because I was so disturbed in the best way possible by Grace's death. I absolutely adore this series. I think it's one of the best ever written for network television, probably the best after Grey's Anatomy lost its stride midway through season 3. Holly Hunter, you don't need to get drunk and dance naked or have casual, intensely conflicted sex in order to pull off the acting gig. You don't need to do anything other than to show up. I pray you know that.Meanwhile, I hope you arise again on a new television show STAT.I was so used to being inspired by witnessing an artist in her element.This was television realizing its true capacity to change lives.Whatever shall I do to replace those nights of having my soul fed?I miss you already.
