With virtually all TV and pilot production shut down due to the coronavirus pandemic, broadcast networks find themselves in a position of either picking up new shows without seeing a pilot or renewing most of their existing lineup. Despite that, CBS decided to move forward without God Friended Me, cancelling the show just as it was wrapping up its second season.
While the show slipped a bit in the second season, falling victim to the supposed need to keep the two leads apart romantically, it was still entertaining enough. I certainly look forward to whatever Brandon Micheal Hall and Violett Beane do next. And, within the next two years, there will be another show in this genre, the skeptical non-believer does good while following the moves of a mysterious, unknown force, on the air, as there has been for the last 30 years or so.
