Really Surprised!

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

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.

First of all, I have to say I've never been a fan of Anne Heche.. but ya know what... I just love her in this. Her comedic timing in this is amazing. Story lines are hilarious, touching and all around good fun. Anne is adorable in this show. The whole concept is as close to 'novel' that Hollywood puts out as one can hope for. It's 'Touched by an Angel', 'Saving Grace' wrapped up in a ticklish taco (I know, really bad metaphor, but I'm kind of hungry right now). Few shows make me laugh out loud, and I love to laugh out loud.Don't deprive yourself of watching this program, 'swear to God' you won't regret it.

I've watched 3 episodes and am a fan. I was skeptical at first but this is a well written, smart, funny show. It reminds me very much of Scrubs from a few years back. The characters are very representative of our post-modern, secular culture. Woven through the irreverent dialog are some very good moral, ethical messages. Anne Heche as the main character Beth who has found God following a traumatic event is comically representative of the modern new believer. Theologically and doctrinally naive she is unabashed in her belief unlike the only other professed believer in the cast who largely sublimates her beliefs in the face of her skeptical peers unbelief. Save Me is a bold entry in the sitcom landscape that has seemed to venerate themes that in prior years would have been considered socially unacceptable. ironically, talking about God in media has become counter cultural. save Me is making it cool again. Give it a shot. You just might be pleasantly surprised.

I think a lot of people are going to hate the show without even watching it, why? because it's about a woman who thinks she hears god's voice in her mind. Well, i have a couple of reasons for those people to watch this show:1- How can you rate a TV show without even watching it? 2- The protagonist isn't even a church person, in fact she has a hard time accepting the fact that 'god' is talking to her. 3- The people around her think she went crazy, who wouldn't? which creates funny interactions between the characters. 4- This show (at least the two first episodes) is not about convincing you to believe in 'god', so don't worry, you don't need to believe for it to be funny.5- Imagine suddenly one day your mother, your wife or your daughter started telling people that they hear god's voice, how would you react?I believe people shouldn't judge this show just because 'god' is in it, give it a chance, if you don't even smile while watching it, well, it isn't for you, but the jokes are there, and they're good enough to make me laugh.If you enjoy comedy, i assure this show is for you.
