This June brings with it the fifth season of ‘Greenleaf’ – which OWN have today confirmed will be the final instalment of the popular church drama.
Anchored by Merle Dandridge (Grace Greenleaf), Lynn Whitfield (Lady Mae Greenleaf), and Keith David (Bishop Greenleaf), the series has gripped viewers with its juicy take on what happens beyond the pulpit of one of Memphis’ most prominent (fictional) megachurches.
Following its dramatic climax last year, the next chapter of the show sees the Greenleafs attempt to maintain a united front in the face of losing their church to Bob Whitmore and Harmony & Hope Ministries.
However, secrets creep up and create foundation shaking fractures – some of which threatened to destroy the family’s fragile relationship.
A consistent performer, the show oft ranks as the #1 telecast for African American viewers across all of broadcast and cable.
