After being ousted from her convent, Sister Simone vows to destroy the one responsible: a powerful artificial intelligence known as Mrs. Davis. To exact her revenge, Simone makes a deal with the algorithm and is thrust into a dangerous world of secret societies, religious conspiracies and age-old legends as she searches for the whereabouts of the most clichéd and overused MacGuffin -- the Holy Grail. To complete the ridiculous and farfetched task, Simone teams up with her rebellious ex-boyfriend, Wiley, who is now the leader of an underground resistance movement dedicated to stopping Mrs. Davis. Together they face a variety of mysterious and powerful forces as they search for the Grail, the one thing capable of destroying the algorithm once and for all. As they grow closer to completing their quest, Simone must confront her past, prove the strength of her faith and uncover long-hidden secrets as she fights to liberate a society that may not want to be freed.

Critics Consensus

Positively bonkers while undergirded by an intelligent design, Mrs. Davis makes Betty Gilpin a hero for modern times in a highly imaginative mixture of spirituality and technology.

Phillip Maciak The New Republic The new Peacock series is a testament to human originality. May 15, 2023 Full Review Wenlei Ma News.com.au An imaginative series that keeps entertainment value high in its priorities. Apr 30, 2023 Full Review Liz Shannon Miller Consequence Mrs. Davis is big, bold, and loud in both its ideas and its execution, with some pretty stunning set-pieces across its eight-episode run. Rated: B+ Apr 21, 2023 Full Review Sharai Bohannon Horror Movie Blog How often do we see a badass nun in a futuristic setting? How often do we get these kinds of weird but fun moments of danger? I didn’t know this flavor of jam was an option, but now that I’ve discovered it, I’m ready to eat it by the spoonful. Aug 14, 2023 Full Review Uproxx Staff Uproxx We have no clue where any of this goes from here, or if it even can go anywhere from here, but we do know we’ll be along for the assuredly weird and entertaining ride. Jul 24, 2023 Full Review Sarah Ward Concrete Playground Delightfully wild and gleefully ridiculous... When Mrs Davies begins, going with the flow is the only response.

Laura H I really liked this crazy show. Very unusual premise and take on religion. I highly recommend it. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/27/25 Full Review Gareth v Despite having a few flat spots, this odd-ball look at religion and the effects of technology is a show will keep you hooked enough to see it through to it's conclusion Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/20/25 Full Review Mandy T This show is bizarre, confusing and a waste of time! It felt sacrilegious! Truly a twisted series. I'm angry about the time wasted! Don't bother watching it! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/12/25 Full Review David H This was such a crazy tv show - but thoroughly engaging, inventive, thought-provoking - absolute genius. Great acting and an insane story-line that kept me riveted the whole time. Highly recommend. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/10/25 Full Review cameron c An absolute ride and the best (and funniest) show you'll see in a long while. Feels very topical, too. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/25 Full Review Aaron T One of the most original and inventive shows I've seen in years! Wonderfully acted by the whole cast, but Betty Gilpin gives an absolute tour de force! It's also a really beautiful show with lots of color, great set design and lots of filming at golden hour. Add in the fact that it's freaking hilarious and it's become one of my favorite shows ever. I really hope it's released on blu ray. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/15/25 Full Review Read all reviews
