Greenleaf

I finished the final season of Greenleaf and it was touching to say the least. From the beginning of the show, Grace has gone through a lot with her mother. She could never figure out why her mother was so hard on her.

Well in the final season, it’s revealed that the Bishop James is not her real father. Being the good man he is, James excepts Grace as his daughter which took a lot of stress off her. She discovered she has a new half brother, Aaron.

We also discover things about Grace’s long lost son, AJ. Grace had given him up when he was a baby and he is having a hard time with that. When she found AJ after being released from prison, he was not happy to see her. AJ has other secrets also. You will have to watch and find out. I did notice that the same luggage Grace came with in season one was the same luggage she left with in season five. That was a nice touch or I’m I the only one that noticed that.

In the end, the family becomes stronger and realize that it’s okay to need each other. Cherish your family, it’s all you have to depend on.

The Spanish Princess – S1

I kind of stumbled on this show and it turned out to be a win. Catherine of Aragon is the Princess of Spain. She was sent to England at the beginning of the show to marry the future prince of England, Arthur. She arrives in England on a rainy day leaving behind the warm climate of Spain. From the start, she was not happy with the surroundings. It was cold and lifeless compared to bright surroundings of Spain

The entire first season is about her marrying a prince so she can become the Queen of England one day. She goes through so much with the royal family, especially the mother of the King, who does not think she is fit and that Catherine brings a curse to the kingdom.

Catherine does have her own secrets she is keeping from the King in her pursuit to get married to the son Harry after the death of Arthur. She is determined and would do everything in her power.

If you want a quick watch and is looking for something new, this may be the show for you. It’s not mind boggling with minimum effort to watch so don’t expect much.
