There's no saving "Saving Grace"

across the board.  When I first heard the concept of the show, I was not interested becasue I thought it was going to be super "Chrisitanity is the only way.  Return to the light" mumbojumbo.  But I trusted that Holly Hunter wouldn't sign up for something like that so I watched it.  I love the relationship Grace has with Laura San Giacomo's character.  It's a sweet friendship.  The sense of humor on the show is great and unique.  And the show represents all religions and spiritual beliefs.   I'll miss it.  I feel bad for the cast because it seems like they love eachother a lot. 

As far as how it should end-I don't know.  I just want them to keep going the way they are going. With Grace more happy and at peace.

.. and I watch this show. 

Part of Europe has caught on: we have one channel here that broadcasts it, but sadly it's in French. Even though I speak French, I could never watched a show like Saving Grace dubbed in French. For one, Holly Hunter's southern drawl is too sexy for words. So no, I don't watch it on tv. 

(*cough* I download it *cough*)

Yes, there is that religious undertone, but Holly Hunter doesn't exactly play a nun, quite on the contrary. *nudge nudge wink wink*

I must say that I can understand it's a hard sell across the sea. I didn't think much of it when I heard about it first. But after a while, when I had nothing else to watch I decided to check it out since: it's Holly Hunter for pete's sake! But I really love it now! Too bad it's going, although I'm happy it's getting a proper send off.

A really great show is going... (except for that one guy, grace is sleeping with all the time, who annoyes the hell out of me. He seems to be drunk all the time... Not gonna miss him.)

Perhaps if Fox (and TNT) hadn't spent so much energy into splitting the viewing season, Saving Grace might have had a better chance to build up the audience who would be willing to buy all those DVDs. Has the American/Western attention span gotten so short that the average viewer can't handle a 15 week season? (I remember when you saw new shows for 39 week runs, with the best of the season going into reruns during the summer months. Maybe that's why it was called "The Golden Age of Television" - the writers and audience had time to develop ideas, concepts, likeability.)

Or maybe it's simply difficult for Fox to deal with a show having strong female characters who aren't perfect (oh my gosh, actual human beings with realistic issues?, what is the world coming to?)

As a UK viewer, I've watched all of Saving Grace, but have been on the verge of giving up quite often. Here in the UK we get lots of US shows and most are very universal, but Saving Grace is so regional - I have trouble understanding what they are on about quite often, with extended conversations about US football and heavy accents, this is a show that needs subtitles I think! I also find the antics of the team incredibly irritating at times - endless practical jokes that just aren't funny. I like Holly Hunter and the main reason I watch is for her and the Grace/Rhetta relationship which is really good, but the characters are frankly hard to like and the good ol' boy attitude is not my favourite.

I'm glad the show was made, but I'm not that sorry or surprised to see it end.

like Veronica Mars.

This is the worst news I've heard in a while (since the cancellation of the above mentioned, actually :) ). Especially as I'm one of those who live in one of those countries which can't buy the DVDs. I have season 1 (relatives are occasionally useful), but yeah... Season 2 only just finished airing here. :( . At least I have season 3 to look forward to, still.

I will miss Saving Grace. One of the best series I've seen, except for, as cogent53 said, those annoying practical jokes and the way the guys are.
