Kevin (Probably) Saves the World

This is definitely weird. As I write this, there are 3 reviews posted, 2 of which are from Lancaster, SC - which is where I'm from as well. (And Lancaster ain't all that big.)

At least one of the other posters is a believer (most likely Christian) -- while I am not. I'm an atheist, in fact. That said, I love - LOVE - this show - the actors (all!!), the writing, the redemption. At least the pilot (here's hoping they don't fall down some hole or other). Anyway - whether it's some quirk or intention of the universe in action here ... all in all, I urge one and all to give the show a whirl. I'm betting that more than a fair number of you will find it well worth the while.

That is John Ritter and JoAnna Garcia Swisher. Personally I thought a second season was in order but alas it wasn't to be. ABC cancelled it after 16 episodes.

The original title was supposed to be "The Gospel Of Kevin.' ....but it was changed as show was spiritual as opposed to openly religious.

Jason certainly had some of his dad's chops in this show. (I had seen him before in the "mockumentary period piece".... Another Period).

I guess Kevin didn't get a chance to "save the world" with so few episodes. It is an enjoyable series if you have a chance to catch it.

As another reviewer stated accurately, ratings are everything.

Need to figure out why these producers couldn't keep this show full of positive messages, positive characters, positive values and positive energy going ....tough writing call, I guess , but I'm sure there are people that could bring their talents to run with this ...but ....alas!

Here is a show that IMHO deserved a better fate. The first couple of episodes the show was finding its footing with an unusual premise.

Kevin (Jason Ritter) started out an unlikable character but that would change. I'm not giving anything away as it's already in the synopsis and trailer. Let's face it, Jason Ritter seems to function at his best as a charismatic, likeable character....very much like his dad.

Speaking of his dad it's good to see Jason has some very good physical comedy chops. Not in the same league as his dad who was IMHO the best of his generation...but very good just the same.

I enjoyed Jason Ritter in "Another Period". JoAnna Garcia Swishser hasn't played a role that I haven't enjoyed.

No spoilers. Just 16 episodes that were quite enjoyable. JMHO.

OK so I am supposed to be finishing of a design for a client. While I do my design work late at night I like to put on a TV show in the background. Tonight it happened to be 'KPSW' normally the show is on in the background and I just pick up a few things as I work. This time I stopped and watched it. Sure its not the next big thing but I tell you what it is pretty close. I can see me watching this with my kids on a Sunday evening. The characters so far are intriguing don't ask me the names as I am useless with names. I especially like the young girl and I bet plenty of young girls can relate to her in different ways and that is just from the first episode. I am not going to go into details of the show but I will say this if like me middle aged man with kids and who likes to think he has a heart and that the world is not all bad you will enjoy this show and I cant wait to see the next episode.
