TNT has set March 29 as the premiere date for the fourth and final season of Saving Grace. The new season will begin with two episodes, beginning at 9:00 PM/ET.

Hunter earned her second-straight Emmy nomination for the role in 2009. Despite the critical acclaim, Fox Studios opted not to continue production citing rising costs.
