Too good, too much to handle? 5 out of 5 stars.
4 of 4 people found this review helpful.

Was this series simply too good to last? Was it too much for the very conservative and uptight groups to handle? Must have been, because I can see no other reason for cancellation. I watched all seven episodes and really enjoyed all of them. What a shame that we are left with cliffhangers that will never be resolved.

It's unfortunate that the protesting groups couldn't handle a very human and flawed priest, his wife's drinking, his son's homosexuality, the priest's conversations with Jesus, and whatever other elements were deemed too controversial. A show that portrays religion in a positive light is such a rare creature, and it's pretty obvious that no such show will ever please enough people that they would leave it alone.
