What do you think? Have you seen God Friended Me? Will you watch season two?
Most definitely I will watch season 2, I have watched every episode, never miss one!
Wonderful show with great family values A much needed message given today’s political environment. Love it and so uplifting
God Friended Me is one of the best new shows on network TV in the last few years. It’s current and heartwarming. The storylines are so intriguing and relevant. I hope he gets renewed for another season.
“God Friended Me” is refreshing & positive at a time when all we see in our world is anger, fear & a total lack of personal integrity reveling in bullying. This show is a WONDERFUL reminder that those around us are still capable of kindness despite the hate constantly bombarding us. So glad you’ve renewed this show for Season 2!!! We NEED this right now!
I love this show! It deals with real life issues with thoughtfulness and compassion. The humor, the tension, it’s all great. I am so delighted GFM will have a second season I will definitely watch.
Very good news! Sunday night is the only commercial TV night in my house, with 60 Minutes and GFM. Glad to hear it will continue.
I came upon the pilot by accident and have been watching it ever since. GFM manages to address challenging moral dilemmas & relationship issues without being overly preachy or saccharine about it.
YES!!! This is my favorite show!! It is one of the best out out there.
I LOVE this show…as does my husband…we watch it every week!…we have been watching to see if it was renewed (as generally the shows we love get cancelled)…we were THRILLED to see it renewed!!!
I absolutely love this show and will continue to watch it next season. So glad it has been renewed!
I love this show … my favorite TV program, supplanting TBBT
