Why Providence (TV) might be annoying:

    The show is rather melodramatic and soapy.
    Despite being dead, Lynda often appears as a ghost in her daughter's dreams often to give advice.
    It ended rather abruptly in the middle of its fifth season despite being advertised as a 'winter finale.'
    The complete series has yet to be released onto DVD or streaming (as of 2022).

Why Providence (TV) might not be annoying:

    It temporarily revived B.J. Hunnicutt M*A*S*H's career.
    The show's theme song was The Beatles's 'In My Life' performed by Chantal Kreviazuk.
    It won the People's Choice Award for Favorite New Drama in 2000.
    Kanakaredes would gain further recognition for her starring role in 'CSI: NY.'
