God Friended Me

3 episodes in and really enjoying it.

I approached this show with some trepidation, but after really enjoying Kevin (Probably) Saves the World, I gave this a go and have no problem saying that I am really enjoying it and look forward to more episodes.

All of the actors have really good chemistry and they have all put in really good performances so far. Most are unknowns to me, but a few I have seen before and enjoy seeing them again.

None of the religious overtones are at all overdone which would have turned me off straight away.

Highly recommended, 9/10 so far, hope the standard is maintained.

EDIT: After watching episode 4 my rating for the show has to be amended to and 8.

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.

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:)

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.

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.
