Miracle Workers

First off, I created an account just for this review. I have a fb and twitter and i have never touched them, just to lock up my name, I'd rather be in the mountains than be on fb. I like this show, season 1 was something unique, I think we're all looking for unique content these days. It was very Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxyish, the book, not the movie. You cannot successfully put multiple books into a movie, stop it. The character chemistry was great, I like that the show uses rated R language as well, it's not over the top, but realistic. People seem to hate season 2, I liked it. A complete flip from heaven, to shovellin'. There aren't too many shows that address the medieval time period in history, and who would hae thought such a unique job was out there. The Fred Armison episode was great. The father son tension was good. The love interest tension was good. There's always a moral point or two to an episode. I awaited each episode, it's a smart show. Big Bang is not a smart show, it debases intelligence. The only big network shows I watch is Brooklyn 99, and the Orville, when's that come back?. I liked the good place. Don't give me politics, give me a good story arc, smart dialogue, likeable/hateable characters. We need some of these shows in our lives to decompress. It's Always Sunny, why do we love it, because it's stupid, and we forget about things for 22 minutes without commercials. I want more of the jumping around timelines, with this same cast, they are great together, even the king. If American Horror Story can do it, why not a show like this? AMH, needs help though, maybe they need a dark ages season.

I hope the right people see this and make a season 3, I like this show.

It's lighthearted, hilarious and it's fun watching. I loved watching this show the episodes are on the smaller side and none of the episodes are boring. I started watching this only only because of Daniel Radcliffe but after the end of the first episode I loved every single character in Heaven Inc. The only complaint I have from the show is that the characters on earth just weren't that interesting for the most part.

Miracle Workers is a quirky comedic concept that never finds itself fully formed. The story, themes and comedy never quite hit the absurdist levels they hope to push. Thankfully, the cast is extremely charismatic and fun surrounded by an entertaining premise and some thought-provoking themes. It ends up becoming a run-of-the-mill, ordinary comedy that is saved by the hilarious and layered performances of Buscemi and Radcliffe. From its fun inventive premise to its half-baked idea, Miracle Workers ends up being the passable distant cousin of The Good Place.

Season one was worth watching. The rest of the seasons go downhill from there. They have nothing to do with the original story from season one. Why is the show called miracle workers if they are no longer a miracle workers? The concept of the original show was great I don't know why they felt the need to change it. They were called miracle workers because they were angels who performed miracles from heaven. Now season two has nothing to do with season one. They use all the same actors with all of the same names. Nobody is performing miracles. There is no fantasy element left for any of the other seasons. Now it's just a medieval sitcom.

I was on the fence about watching this but i always enjoy Steve Buscemi's work, My only dislike is i wish the episodes would be a little longer since it will be a short series i'm already dreading the last episode. The cast is great and the underlining dark humor is wonderful. I'm sure if God is really out there he might find this amusing.
