The show: The award-winning British series follows Rev. Adam Smallbone, an Anglican vicar placed in charge of a dusty London parish, who finds humor in the everyday duties of his calling. Along the way, he reveals some little-known tidbits about the profession, like how vicars prefer funerals over weddings.
The cast and crew: Show co-creator and British thespian Tom Hollander as Rev. Smallbone, with Olivia Colman as his wife.
The status: The show was recently picked up for another season.
What they're saying: "What I'd recommend for those of you who are curious is to let a few episodes build up, then watch them all at once (Hulu is great for this).
