Hand of God (2014–2017)
7/10
Entertaining but difficult to believe

Warning: Spoilers
The pilot episode started off great but as the series wore on, it became a little more difficult to follow characters. I understand that it's the screenwriters job to keep us entertained and there were many twists but it seemed to get carried away and it made the plot more difficult to believe as the series progressed.

The characters are fatally inconsistent. There is a trustworthy pastors girlfriend who seduces someone but is all about getting god's word out? At least be uniform throughout. Is she good or is she morally corrupt? One second Penell's daughter in law sees a video of a book then the next she's wanting to pull the plug. Besides if The Harris' want to keep him on life support, why does she want to pull the plug since they're rich and can afford it? Makes no sense. I can go on and on with discrepancies but won't.

Pilot started off well then lost a lot of steam as show moved on. The plausibility began to suffer in order to throw in many twists and turns which a lot felt forced. It was entertaining except when the believability lacked which made me want to stop watching. Not sure if I'll give season 2 a chance.
