Earlier this week, CBS cancelled and pulled their new sitcom, Angel from Hell. The network won’t be airing an episode tonight and it’s unclear if or when the remaining episodes will be released.
Fans of the Jane Lynch sitcom were understandably upset by CBS’ cancellation decision. Members of the cast expressed their own disappointment on Twitter.

Gene actually says "quiet dignity and grace" and that just made me laugh and I think I'll go watch that movie now and feel better

I had a hell of a time working with @janemarielynch and @maggielawson, even if my episode didn't air. I swear I was in it! Ask them!

What do you think? Will you miss Angel from Hell? Do you think that it should have been cancelled so soon? Should it have been renewed for a second season?
Are you kidding me, I absolutely loved that show and have been waiting for the new season to start. This was one of the best comedies, cast and writing ever and it gets cancelled!!! Unbelievable that this great new comedy gets cancelled and some of the existing really lame supposed to be funny comedies get left on air.
I was so dissapointed to find out the show was cancelled. it was funny and sweet. I kept looking for it on my dvr list…and now I can’t remain in denial-it’s gone. Bring it back!
this was a laugh out loud great show and my wife and I are very disappointed that they cancelled it
A refreshing story line. Very sad that it was cut. Would a new name for the show and a different family that she would help be able to bring it back?
Really liked this show. I have gotten so tired of the run of thevmill comedy shows. The Angel from Hell was very funny and refreshingly different. But I knew that it would get cancelled because it always went to close to the saterical edge for the comfort of CBS.
CBS pulled the plug way too early on this charming comedy! Hello Netflix, Amazon and Hulu? Can you pick it up?
You know I remember a time CBS was on the bottom of the big 3. I’ll bet it was similar to now, very bad decision making at the top. People need to laugh in this world today and when you take off good comedy with two proven comedic actors without giving it an appropriate chance, maybe you need to think of who is making the decisions. Take a suggestion cable channels. This is a good one to steal.
