Save Me

Beth gets a second chance at life, family, and friends after she accidentally chokes on a sandwich. God has intervened and helped this misguided, alcoholic, joke of the neighborhood, become the person she has always wished she was.

As someone who has nothing up with religion, I was skeptical to watch this Series. The mainly reason to watch it, was for Anne Heche. This is however not a pro- or anti-religious show. The show dares to bring God into the storyline, but with a contemporary approach. The moral and ethical messages are funny and light carried out.

Heche shows her outstanding comedic timing and facial mimic in this Show. She makes an unlikely character touchy and believable. The rest of the cast are not in her league, but the acting is more than decent.

Especially the first 3-4 episode are funny and well written from then on the director is rushing through the story and the show gets less enjoyable. The show is fast paced and the format of 20- 25 minutes suits it well. This comedy is different but better than the average sit-com.

Even a non believer should be able to appreciate Save Me as a positive influence on our society and it's entertaining in the process. The references to God are deliberately vague and open to interpretation. I can give an example. Whether she is psychotic or listing to Yoda is left for you to decide. At the same time it manages to be uplifting when it reminds people to Be: Kind, Humble, Loving, Non-Judgemental. A major lesson in the show is the importance of wearing someone down with your love. Being consistently and persistently loving usually provides the cure. While being a little simplistic it's still a good message for American Viewers. It has to be better than the reality shows which show people being demeaned and humiliated and judged as unworthy. Refreshing!

I think this is quite a good show. Better than a lot I've seen of late. The plot has been set early on we know she talks to god, This could give so many stories in the future of the show. I think given time this could become a show that people might start watching, when others talk about and explain the plot. 7/10 worth a watch easy viewing has a lot of potential.OK it might not have the best ratings on IMDb i don't know why maybe its because its gone down the god route but this show has got a set up to make it a good show,The characters are cast very nicely the acting is pretty good.definitely deserves a a higher rating than it currently has.

Finally I've found a comedy worth watching. Anne Hathe plays a train-wreck of a mother who finds her self speaking with god. Surrounded by her skeptical friends and family. She tries, in her own innocent and adorably funny way to do gods will.

This is however not a pro- or anti-religious show. The show finds a middle ground in it's hilarious one-liners and well written script.

People might judge the show without seeing it. (I did.) But you definitely need too see a few episodes before you dismiss it. If you do it's a very hard show to dismiss.

I hope this show grows a large following. It deserves it.

My wife and I were pleasantly surprised. Nice lighthearted look at a spiritual awakening. Paul was thrown from a horse so this isn't so far fetched. Looking forward to more episodes. In this day and age half hour shows seem like a tease but probably works best for this type of show. Short and sweet message, no need to drag out a plot line. Acting was very good for a spiritual show. Reminds me of the show a few years ago where the lawyer was having visions. Only this one is simpler, so far, to follow. The church music scene was a little over the top but the priest/pastor was played nicely. The music certainly adds to the show just had a problem with her just jumping in and knowing the words when she said she had never been in a church before. Also music didn't fit with the type of church that would have a priest/pastor wearing the normal denominational gown outfit. Writers have to decide on what kind of church this is going to be.
