Forgive Me is a Canadian television series that breaks the seal of the Catholic confessional booth. A young insomniac priest gets caught up in the sins of his congregants while a secret from his own past threatens his calling.
The series is written and directed by Thom Fitzgerald. It stars Mike McLeod, John Dunsworth, Jane Alexander, Hugh Thompson, Olympia Dukakis, Brenda Fricker, Edward Asner, Jeremy Akerman, Ryan Doucette, Candy Palmater, Gharrett Patrick Paon and Rob Joseph Leonard.
The series began its original broadcast on September 4, 2013 on Super Channel in Canada.
The series was generally well-received, attaining positive reviews. John Doyle of The Globe and Mail praised Mike McLeod's performance as "superb", noted "a visual sumptuousness that's startling" and called it "a powerful 30 minutes of television." Brad Oswald of the Winnipeg Free Press wrote "The confessional-confined dialogue is smart, and the stripped-down performances are seamlessly delivered and punctuated with moments of pure, stark, painful honesty."
