God Friended Me

Sometimes I think people ruin shows and movies by trying to explain every little detail. What happened to just enjoying entertainment without having to have every last detail covered? I see this whenever I'm looking through reviews. This is a feel good show if you allow it to just be. It's not the best show that I have ever watched but I enjoyed the first episode and find myself looking forward to the next. Maybe take in a few before condemning it:)

Perhaps God has tapped into the AI that enabled Person of Interest. In fact, it's like a melding of that show with Kevin (Probably) Saves the World. I'm hooked.

What amazes me about the 1 votes listed here is the sheer hypocrisy. First of all, a one vote tells you they are voting emotionally rather than honestly. Secondly, they are raging about their personal ideology while condemning other for theirs. The biggest trespass. in my opinion, is why watch a show with this title and comment at all if you are am anti-God person? There are tons of cooking recipe reviews from individuals on the internet. The ones that drive me crazy are when a person rates a Mushroom soup recipe 3 out of 5 stars (or worse) because "she hates mushrooms", but her husband said it was wonderful so she gave it a 3. If you hate the main ingredient, DON'T EAT IT. This is exactly the same. If you "hate" the idea of God, don't watch and don't comment. The show is very much like an Early Edition update, so it loses points for creativity there, but it is sweet and the cast does a good job. I've seen the first three episodes. I don't think it's a spoiler to say that a big message is to Listen to each other and keep an opened mind both ways. That is always a timely and valid message.

Good locations, good situations, easy going acting and a feel good factor. God or no god, humanity is about helping each other. Who doesn't like a good emotional tale? Even if there was God, would he be more worried about what we think of him or what we think of our fellow beings? Enjoy the show and allow yourselves to feel good sometimes.

My husband and I watched this during lunch today and I'm so glad we did. It was interesting, fun and left us wanting to see it again. We absolutely loved the characters. We hope the writers continue to keep it up-lifting. Shades of Eli Stone, Joan of Arcadia and ? I plan to come back and re-review the show after I have seen more episodes. Update: The second episode did not disappoint. In fact, it might have been even better than the first! Love this show.
