The dramedy will return for Season 2.
CBS announced today that God Friended Me has been renewed for a second season. The early pickup, which comes in the midst of the dramedy's debut run, rounds out the network's recent round of freshman pickups that kicked off on Friday.
The hour-long series premiered last fall as part of the network's 2018-2019 lineup. It was only a few weeks later that its episode count was topped up to a full season's worth. The show has been drawing decent viewership, ranking as one of the top new broadcast shows this season, and has improved CBS' time slot performance on Sunday nights. Reviews have been overall mixed, though lean towards the positive.
God Friended Me follows New York podcast host Miles Finer, who is an outspoken atheist. When he randomly receives a friend request from God on Facebook, it starts him down the path of becoming an agent of change in the lives and destinies of people around him.
Look for Season 2 this fall as part of the 2019-2020 television season.

God Friended Me is my favorite tv show. It is so uplifting. I can't wait for the new episode every week.

Best show on TV. Great Actors. great writing. It's about time someone started writing shows with real content and story lines.
Not relying on sex, murder, and filth to sell it. The writers and actors in this program actually have stand alone talent and skill, and make it happen based on their professionalism.
We love it. Please don't pull it.
I love this show, the characters and the actors who play them are very appealing. It could have gone over the top with drippy saccharine but so far they've managed to keep it under control.
In a sense it's kind of a rehash of "Person of Interest". Simply replace the "God Account" with the computer of PoI that each week sends the characters off on a new mission while in the background there's a bigger story arc about just what the omnipotent "God" really is.

Cute show but they say "the God Account" SO MUCH...15 times per show minimum.
One of the best shows on tv. I knew this would get picked back up.
I preferred "Kevin Probably..." better, but since we lost that, I'm glad this got renewed. Sometimes it can be a little slow, but I like the cast and it does eventually come together.
This show makes a mockery of the scripture about being God's friend. Drives me crazy.
why is this being compared to BB lol...
And 'worse' and 'garbage' are extremely harsh words. This is well acted and an enjoyable hour of TV that doesn't include guns, violence, blood and all the other stuff that 90% of TV has these days.
It is an entertaining hour that the entire family can watch.
I wish Kevin saves the world would have been renewed, that was another great family TV show.
Those that don't like this should just go away and watch the same old crap they always watch with different names and leave something clean for the rest of us.
This is not as over the top bad as BB. If people want to watch this they can. CBS is not a cable network showing full 16 hour marathons (or 3 episodes per week) of it. I have enough content to not need to turn on CBS for this hour.
Do not give BB another shot. It is a week (real time) of people being dumb (big brother after dark) and then it edited into 3 hours of "strategy." Rinse wash and repeat. It is survivor in a box. Every season is the same.
Love_Texas and Bernard, Big Brother has evolved a lot in the last 20 years. It's not only an interesting social experiment, it's an intense strategic game. Maybe you should give it another shot!
