Contents

Plot

The series chronicles the life of Miles Finer (Hall), an outspoken atheist and podcaster, who is sent a friend request on Facebook by an account named "God". This account suggests new friends to Miles, people in his hometown of New York City, who will require assistance. Initially skeptical, Miles decides to follow these suggestions to help people. His first suggestion is a doctor who lost a patient and is on the verge of losing his girlfriend. While following up on his second suggestion, he meets and befriends Cara (Beane), a struggling magazine writer. Together with Cara and his hacker friend Rakesh (Sharma), Miles tries to find out who is behind the "God" account while still providing help to the account's continuing friend suggestions. Miles' atheist views sometimes cause friction with his father (Morton), who is the pastor of an Episcopal church in Harlem.

Use of Facebook

God Friended Me uses Facebook frequently as a narrative device. The "Friended" in the title God Friended Me refers to the act of friending someone on social media, granting that person special privileges (on the service in question) with respect to oneself. [8] In God Friended Me, this allows for God to contact Miles.

While the majority of Facebook's revenue is advertisement-derived, [9] [10] show creator Steven Lilien says that their conversations with Facebook have been limited to discussing "how much we can portray it." [11] The "God" of the show was active on Facebook outside the show, with liking pages and changing their profile picture as examples of their online activities. [12]

Her attempt to retrieve it from her former fence fails.

While Miles helps Kylie and Tammy heal their wounds, he learns that Ali doesn't qualify for the trial because of a heart valve condition. Meanwhile, Cara continues to work on the Corey Smith lead, tracking down his mother, Marsha, a second time.

Trevor says he was just about to tell Rose, his late best friend's sister, that he loves her, when Miles and the God account reunited her with Lt. Fremont (S2.Ep1). Miles tries to reason with Trevor when he insists he will tell Rose how he feels at her rehearsal dinner. In anger, Trevor posts in the podcast comments that Miles is hiding his feelings for Cara. Miles asks Rakesh to remove the post as soon as he sees it. With help from Rakesh's soul mate app, Miles shows Trevor there is likely someone else who is right for him, but Trevor follows through on his plan. Though it leads to Rose telling Trevor she doesn't love him that way, Trevor gets needed closure, prompting him to tell Miles he should say how he feels about Cara. However, Adam saw the earlier post from Trevor, and he breaks up with Cara. Meanwhile, Rakesh, Zack and Corey are able to successfully hack Darpa, but while trying to locate the source of the code, the program crashes.

Corey doesn't believe his son, but CJ later tells a story about Corey that he had no way of knowing. Corey is arrested for hacking Darpa. Miles and Arthur track down Alphonse, who says he was in the CIA for 20 years and left Corey and his mother to protect them. Alphonse uses his connections to get Corey released from custody. While meeting with Corey and Miles, Alphonse says he secretly visited CJ while he was in his coma, and is likely the "angel" CJ heard. However, Alphonse says CJ brought up one other detail that he never mentioned during his hospital visit. Corey and Alphonse finally start to heal. Meanwhile, Cara says Miles is still in love with her when visiting her mother, but that she has moved on and loves Adam.

Over a montage of all the people that he has helped, Miles explains to his audience the happy ending that he and his family and friends got, including he and Cara reuniting as a couple as well as Rakesh and Jaya. As well, Miles discovers a clue in Ali's Bible that the God account pointed him to. A year to the day after Miles got the friend suggestion for Ali, Miles gets a message directing him to a Himalayan mountaintop to finally get his answers about the God account.

Production

Development

On August 31, 2017, it was announced that Steven Lilien and Wynbrandt had decided to develop the pilot and had teamed with Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schechter to develop the concept. Warner Bros. Television was shopping the show to the American broadcast networks. Both Lilien and Wynbrandt would write the series, while Berlanti and Schechter would serve as executive producers through Berlanti Productions, and Marcos Siega would direct the pilot. [56] CBS ordered a pilot on January 23, 2018. In addition to Berlanti and Schechter, Lilien and Wynbrandt would also serve as executive producers for the series. [1] The pilot was picked up straight-to-series by CBS on May 11, 2018 [1] and the series premiered on September 30, 2018. [2] On October 19, 2018, CBS picked up the series for a full season of 20 episodes. [57]

On January 29, 2019, the series was renewed for a second season [3] which premiered on September 29, 2019. On March 13, 2020, Warner Bros. Television announced that production would be suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic. [5] On April 14, 2020, CBS announced the series had been canceled after two seasons, and the last two episodes aired on April 26, 2020. [6] The last-filmed episode was reworked into a series finale, mainly by using unused footage originally filmed for the pilot. [58] [59]

Casting

On February 5, 2018, it was announced that Brandon Micheal Hall had joined the production as Miles Finer. [60] Several additional cast members were announced in February 2018. Suraj Sharma and Javicia Leslie would portray Rakesh Singh and Ali Finer, [61] then four days later Joe Morton was announced as Rev. Arthur Finer. [62] Finally, Violett Beane was cast as Cara Bloom. [63]

On June 11, 2019, it was reported that Erica Gimpel was promoted as a series regular for second season. [64]

Reception

Critical response

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the series has an approval rating of 59% based on 29 reviews, with an average rating of 6.36 out of 10. The site's critical consensus for season one reads, "A sincere and thoughtful handling of spiritual themes helps God Friended Me overcome—and even benefit from—its earnest approach to a potentially off-putting premise." [65] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 57 out of 100 based on 14 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews". [66]

In his review of the show's pilot episode, Matthew Gilbert of The Boston Globe wrote that "Based on the title alone, I was fully prepared to despise this show", but declared that "the premiere holds some promise as a thoughtful feel-good drama." [67] Michael Starr of the New York Post wrote that "While 'God Friended Me' does sometimes stray into saccharine-sweet, 'Touched By An Angel'-type territory [...] it doesn't overstay its welcome and seems to know when to dial it back and inject some levity into the proceedings." [68] Steve Greene of IndieWire gave the show a grade of "C", writing that "It's anchored by a likable cast, and works from an admirably high-concept premise, but for now the result is an overstuffed hodgepodge of exaggerated emotions and familiar swings at family drama." [69]

Vinnie Mancuso of Collider gave the show a rating of three stars, calling Hall's performance as Miles "endlessly likable" but writing that the show is "heavy on the hamminess, rooted in religion and old-fashioned morality, and misunderstands the lifestyle of your average human under the age of 35 on every fundamental level". [70] Hemant Mehta of Patheos wrote that God Friended Me is "not a bad show", but criticized the show for presenting Miles' atheism as being a result of his mother's death. [71] Mehta wrote that "In short, he's an atheist because he went through something traumatic [...] it bears no resemblance to why so many atheists today don't believe in God." [71]

Ratings

The website TV Series Finale acknowledged that during the show's second season, ratings averaged 25% less in the key 18-49 demo compared to the first season. [72] Overall viewership fell 20% compared to the first season. [72] TVLine reported that God Friended Me had the "smallest gain via Live+7 DVR playback — just 23 percent — of any scripted CBS program." [6]
