[Holly] Hunter's amazing, tireless star turn more than compensates for the over-the-top moments and makes "Grace" worth savoring.

The excesses of the series become laughable as the hours progress.

All the warnings about damnation are particularly odd on a show that's as explicit as some of FX's racier dramas. They ring hollow on a show that's so marvelously textured, with filmic cinematography that brings the rural Midwest to life.

"Saving Grace" doesn't have a prayer.

[Holly] Hunter plays her role full-force; sometimes it seems like the acting is taking over the character, but then she pulls it back in and delivers powerful moment after moment.

I'll stick around for Grace, who is perhaps the most fully realized nontraditional female character on TV at the moment. And for the overall hard-edged attitude, which is completely at odds with what we typically expect from, ahem, faith-based television.

Saving Grace looks as though it can make it through many nights on the strength of Hunter's full-tilt performance. A lot is packed into its first uneven hour. Burning at its core, though, is a character that makes this show crackle.

It is not afraid to ask the big questions about God and evil. It is just hard to pick whether it's heaven Saving Grace is trying to raise, or hell.

[Holly] Hunter excels as a hard-drinking cynic.

It's simply a pleasure to watch Hunter work.

Often over the top but never ordinary, "Grace" is one of those shows that shouldn't work but somehow does.

Given what's presented to us for the majority of Season 1, it's hard to really recommend the show in its entirety.
