    I love this show!!! I love Syd, as she reminds me of myself. The Hansen family has so much intrigue and so many things are always going on. I really don't watch it much; I started watching new episodes only in about the second last or last season. But I do watch reruns almost every weeknight on a Canadian channel. I like Joanie's storyline, although I'm not sure of all the details. I am so happy that Syd ended up with Owen in the end because they seemed perfect for each other- way better than Kyle, personally. This is a great family show, but I think by the time it ended, it had run its course.moreless

    I love the show Providence I wish that they would bring it back I admit when sydney had her dreams at the start of each show those were a little wierd but they went along with her so I think they need to bring it back it was a good show with sometimeds real family issues so why did it get cancelled I think it was a time when all the companies got their act together and got some really good shows on the air but that did not mean that they had to cancell it but they still show the old episodes of it on lifetime real women.When it was cancelled in 2002 they thought about bringing it back but they did not go for it so now some of the cast members are on other shows so if you love the show then hope that it comes back on.moreless

    I love this show, i watch it all the time thanks to Direct TV Lifetime Real Woman. I do really want it to come out in season packs 1-5 with special features and everthing. There are some shows that are out already that just came on the air. Artisian needs to get their act in order. The would make a bundle on this show.
  • This is a great show. Wonderful cast and storyline. Would love to have all episodes shown in cronilogical order.

    I love this show. I cannot find Providence airing anymore. Does anyone know anything about it? Lifetime used to air it but I haven\'t seen it recently. I wish it were on every day as it once was. I would also like to see all episodes released on DVD.
  • I loved watching this late at night on lifetime, but they took it off except for 1 am on mondays!! What\'s up with that! Great show overall! I really identified with the characters and everything they went through. I really miss this show it was great!moreless
