The Righteous Gemstones is a comedy series that follows the Gemstones, a famous televangelist family known for their successful megachurch and global outreach. The family consists of patriarch Eli Gemstone and his three children: Jesse, Kelvin, and Judy.
As the Gemstones navigate the world of evangelicalism, they must deal with internal family dynamics, scandals, and the pressures of maintaining their public image. Jesse, the eldest son, struggles with his own demons while trying to live up to his father's expectations. Kelvin, the youngest son, grapples with his sexuality and his place within the family. Judy, the only daughter, seeks to break free from her family's shadow and find her own path.
Throughout the series, The Righteous Gemstones explores themes of faith, greed, and hypocrisy within the world of organized religion. The show offers a satirical look at the intersection of faith and fame, and the lengths people will go to in the name of religion.
