QUEEN SUGAR

OWN, Wednesday, 10 ET/PT

Oprah Winfrey and Selma’s Ava DuVernay team for this lovely, allembracing family drama about three disparate siblings who come together to save their family’s farm. Sugar presents a wide range of character types and social strata, held together by the show’s sense of compassion and graced by a truly great performance from Rutina Wesley. There’s a real feel here for the things that unite and divide us, both as families and as a nation.
