did anyone watch this a few nights ago? I thought it was brilliant with such a great concept. I also love Kristen bell so I guess that helps. I can't wait to see what more they do.

Sorry _Jorge it didn't float my boat. Just a bit off all the "angels is reglar folks what just screw up like us too and comedy results" ala "Angel from Hell".
Will cheerfully admit to excepting the snarky "Lucifer" tho that might just be my comic book roots showing.

It was just ok.....I was looking forward to it, too.
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?

I love the whole cast but it feels like Pushing Daisies for a world that decided the real Pushing Daisies was too weird.

^ Great take-- spot-on summary.
I found it insufferably twee (just like DAISIES), and incredibly misanthropic. Kristin Bell's a cutie, but her character sucks! Not tuning in again.

I thought it was cute and Ted was nailing it...I just don't know if I will follow it week to week for it is a bit of a one joke premise.

Anyone finish the first season or watched the second season premiere? I thought the ending of the first season came out of nowhere. They could have dropped more hints and clues along the way to the big reveal. It almost seemed like the creators thought the show wasn’t going to make it past one season, but then they got renewed so they wrote a cliffhanger on the spot.
I thought the first episode of the second season was good, but I thought Elenor found Chidi a bit too quickly and that “real” Elenor is just so annoying about not knowing what her character is.

I watched the first season on NBC and recently re-watched on Netflix, and saw the season 2 premier last week. It's a great show but seems to be hugely misunderstood. Mike Shur planned the twist from the beginning and there were clues. Eleanor and Chidi finding each other quickly in the first episode was because Michael is a terrible architect, and now he has to do take 3 and figure out how to keep them apart WHILE hiding his second mistake from Shawn. I'm not expecting the show to get more than 2 seasons but I forking love this show.
