“Delilah” Is A Legal Tour-De Force!
HOLLYWOOD—There have been teasers for this legal drama on the OWN network, and I must admit I was intrigued and after watching two episodes I have a new guilty pleasure. I’m referring to “Delilah,” which stars two African-American women in leading roles for a legal drama. Hello, sign me up because it’s something rarely seen on the small screen courtesy of its creator Craig Wright, the same guy who developed the series “Greenleaf” that ran for five seasons on the network before recently coming to an end.
Our title character, Delilah Connolly is portrayed by Maahra Hill, who is an accomplished attorney who fights for those who cannot fight for themselves. Her bestie, Tamara Grayson is portrayed by “Girlfriends” alum Jill Marie Jones. The pals have managed to focus on their careers without going toe-to-toe in the courtroom against one another, until now and let the fun begin. Delilah is a busy working mom caring for her kids while juggling her legal career.
