Deliverance Creek

If the series could commit to examining the necessary politics that surround it, Deliverance Creek loves its trappings enough to have a bank-robbing good time with them.

As presented, it simply feels like Lifetime saw Sparks' name and decided to cast Deliverance Creek into the waters of primetime - with too many paddles rowing in different directions.

Let's hope it gets less murky.

Deliverance Creek is tense and dramatic, filled with impossible choices of an unimaginable time. Strong female roles dominate the story, each representing not just her singular character but also an entire group of women from this period in history.
