Saving Grace

Watched Saving Grace with Holly Hunter on TNT last night. It was a little intriguing. Set in OK City (when has that happened) and is centered around HH's character--a hard living cop who has lost her Catholic faith. She strikes a guy down while driving drunk (or did she?) and pleads, "Dear God, help me."

A very unlikely angel appears and thus begins her reanalysis of faith.

I'm interested because faith is so little explored on television. I'm also interested because the hard living is pretty explicitly shown.

I hope this will be a serious inquiry and not just salacious television. We'll see.
