This show had me at hello. It begins with a savage sanguineous sword fight back in the days of the Knights Templar. Choreographed for the shock value, it earned a dm ultravi chuckle when one dedicated fighter uses the sword stuck through her body to execute a final flying thrust to an adversary’s eye. Then it skips to a marooned scientist rescued by a Korean cargo ship to introduce the titular Mrs. Davis, and then to our main protag, the nun Simone.
I’m an ep and a half deep and it’s moving along at a steady clip. It’s quirky, and it almost tries too hard to be so, and yet it’s engaging enough so far. There’s a sense of black humor to it. It all hinges on Simone played by Betty Galpin, who is charismatic and reminiscent of Sandra Bullock’s less caricatured sister. The surrounding characters are funny, as Simone takes on a quest for the Holy Grail.
I’ll watch more…
