TV show description:
A dark comedy, this TV show revolves around a slacker who’s on the run from his gambling debt when he gets some divine intervention.
Buddy Dobbs (Michael Rosenbaum) is about to end his misery and jump off a bridge when Reverend Jonathan Barlow shows up and to talk him down. The reverend slips off the bridge and falls to his death so Buddy is left with the unlikely opportunity to steal the man’s identity. He ends up posing as the new gay pastor of the Trinity Lutheran Church in the small, tight-knight town of Ladner.
This leaves his bartender ex-girlfriend Leanne (Aimee Garcia) to clean up the huge mess he left behind. Buddy begins to settle into his new life as a pastor with the help of his preppy new assistant Dora (Sara Rue), alluring church treasurer Alexa (Mircea Monroe) and enthusiastic secretary Russell (Mike Kosinski). However, church president Alden Schmidt (David Rasche) senses that something isn’t quite right.
Curing sex crazed teenagers, stealing kids’ weed and reading Bible scripture may not be a bad gig for Buddy after all. Only time will tell how long he can keep up the facade.
Episode #20 — Thy Neighbor’s Wife
Buddy deals with the shocking arrival of Alexa’s husband. Dora makes a frightening discovery. Schmidt’s engagement party takes an unexpected turn.
First aired: December 7, 2016.
What do you think? Do you like the Impastor TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a third season?
I do not want to see Impastor cancelled. It’s one of the few good shows on TV. Looking forward to this show having a long run. It’s great!!
You go girl!! I couldn’t agree more!!
You go girl!! I couldn’t agree more with you!!
this is one of the funniest new shows. hope it’s one for many years to come
Ms. Severud; In case you aren’t already aware, “Impastor” was already renewed this past summer for another (2nd) season! I’m also looking forward
to the next season!
I liked it. I hope it comes back. Some of the language was little colorful, but it was funny.
This is the first sitcom that I have seen since Seinfeld that I would laugh out loud in my living room. Very intelligent writing. Keep it going.
People, please…. Calm down. It is a comedy. Lighten up,if it insults your sensibilities, use the remote!!! Laughed through the first season. Looking forward to # 2.
This is a great comedy, irreverent and funny. I was so glad to read it was picked up for a second season. from the first episode I was hooked. I even shyly asked my very religious roommate to watch it with me when I went for my 2nd go-around at it, even he laughed and is looking forward to season 2. bravo! I must say, I like the idea of a man of Jewish persuasion playing a Lutheran. makes me giggle every time I see his name on the credits. I hope its in for a long run.
I think I’m the only person in england watching impastor,on android box,so it needs more eposure cause its a cracking show. X
FUNNIEST SHOW EVER! People need to RELAX and laugh.
CANCEL CANCEL CANCEL I am already boycotting Sears, Sparkle Paper Products, and other sponsors.
Oh, boo hoo! Jennifer is “boycotting” TVLand because she can’t get her way! A very mature outlook, I might say!
It’s ashame for Jennifer, because it seems that she was born without a functioning sense of humor. I think the first season of “Impastor” was extremely clever and often very, very funny.
Evidently many others felt similarly since the show has already been renewed
for another season. So sorry for your disappointment, Jen – NOT!
Yes, I am the immature one because I’ve stood up for something that is completely against what I believe honors, or actually in this case dishonors the Almighty God; and one day I pray you will too, I just pray it’s before we all stand before Him having to answer for the things we’ve done…..or, again, in this case, didn’t. God bless you Marc.

No hesitation, CANCEL IT! I’ve boycotted TVLand altogether. I like other shows on three but refuse to even watch them because of the trash Impastor and will NOT watch the channel until it’s “trashed” like it needs to be!
Cancel it!!!!!!! What God haters they truly are. Profane and the utmost of mockery. God will not be mocked and that which you have sown you shall also reap!!!! I can just picture it now these will be the ones during the tribulation praying for the rocks to fall on them and wishing to die and death will flee from them and also the ones who even in great tribulation and pain will still curse God instead of repent and i pray Dear Jesus let it be so.Lord let your enemies be scattered. How will they escape such times as… Read more »
