Hand of God

I think I am at the 900 mark or so for reviews, a stat which should amply qualify me to review this series.

No, it doesn't.

This one is unpredictable, and off the wall. It is a series about insanity written in such a way that even the viewer cannot fully believe what is on screen .. and that is a good thing.

And the writing is not the standout -- the acting too is stellar, Ron P always excellent and Dana D (of Lois Lane fame) looking better at her age than anyone has a right to look.

To say I was transfixed would be an understatement. I am hooked and will be watching the other 9 episodes faster than you can say "Born Again."

I only saw the one episode (pilot) which would decide if this series will picked up or not. As I'm reading it will, so I'm curious to see what's coming next.

The show centers on Harris, a hard-living, law-bending married judge with a high-end call girl on the side, who suffers a mental breakdown and goes on a vigilante quest to find the rapist who tore his family apart. With no real evidence to go on, Pernell begins to rely on "visions" and "messages" he believes are being sent by God through Pernell's ventilator-bound son.

It starts good and its premise is very original. You may made up your mind really quick about what is going but prepare to be surprised.

The show looks good and seems very promising.

Ron Perlman and Dana Delany are good casting for their parts.

UPDATE: As I'm reading the show picked for a full season. So this is good news, because the show looks really interesting.

This was definitely the best pilot produced by Amazon so far in terms of quality of writing, acting and directing. Even just one of the best pilots all around.

Acting is very convincing from all of the leads. The story is very engaging and keeps you on the edge. It makes you question the main character's sanity, but still sympathize with him. There're a lot of layers to the narrative, but it feels all connected.

Marc Foster and Ben Watkins delivered!

I sincerely hope that Amazon will pick it up and produce the whole season with the same outstanding quality.

I was surprised by all the poor reviews on "rotten tomatoes".

Just signed up to amazon prime, tried this TV show out, was doubtful because of the bad reviews, however this show has been quite fun to binge - 8 episodes in, and loving it! Its got politics, ron perlman, ron perlman.

people may be touchy about the way religion is portrayed, but as an aetheist idgaf. It comes as real, and although some of the supernatural themes feel unreal, everything else is fken fantastic.

I loved this series. It took a few episodes to hook me, but once it did, inwas all in. The casting was perfect for this show. I became invested in each character. The story is definitely unique and well written. I lqould have loved more however. 2 seasons is not enough.
