State of Grace

I love this show, it is slightly predictable but is a goodhearted show. Its hard to find shows like that and it is one of the few good shows ABC family has to offer. The characters and easy to like and laugh at. Good hearted comedy is needed more then ever in a society were television is made up of sex, swearing and death.

I think "State of Grace" is one of the best shows on TV right now. It is a show that I think everybody can relate to. It deals with family, friends, crushes, school and much more. The actors and actresses do a great job. I think many people will enjoy this show and I think it is great. I hope it doesn't get canceled though, because many of the the good shows out there today just keep having one or two seasons then get canceled. I hope the same doesn't happen with "State of Grace". Anyway, if you are looking for a good TV show to watch, you might want to try watching this one!

I loved this show and was very disappointed that ABC (and Disney) didn't give it a chance. It had great storylines by terrific writers, a very talented cast (was especially thrilled to see Faye Grant back on television!) and it always gave me a good feeling after watching it. We need more shows like this on television and less of the reality programming "crap" that all of the networks have gone overboard with.

I've been watching State of Grace since it first came on, and I can safely say that it's one of my very favorite shows.

All of the actors seem fit for the parts. You'd expect that modern twelve-year-olds would not be able to act well in a 1960s setting, but Mae Whitman and Alia Shawkat do a great job. All of the characters are very well cast.

Another thing is that they seem like normal people. Grace and Hannah worry about normal things that typical seventh graders do. They don't try to behave beyond their years or sit around and gossip about boys. Neither of them seem stuck up, and they're people that normal kids would like to know.

The show has also improved a lot in the past year. Some episodes were kind of boring in the first season, but now I wouldn't miss one! There is a lot better of a balance concerning air time between the Rayburns and the McKees. In the first season, the plot would usually focus on one of the families, but it's so much more interesting now that they're both featured in every episode. It makes it a lot more fun to watch.

I'd give this show a 10/10.

State of Grace was a fabulous show and one I thought had more depth than Wonder Years (although I was a big fan of Wonder Years also). Perhaps I liked it so much because I am the mother of 2 daughters, perhaps because my daughters are the result of a mixed religion marriage. At any rate, the acting was sublime: both my girls and I adored both Hannah and Grace. The interactions between Hannah's parents and the growth of Grace's mother (played WONDERFULLY by Faye Grant) made the show a delight for parents as well. My little one still gets teary when she hears "Do You Believe in Magic?" Trust Eisner to f*&^ up again.
