Reviews

suedumbill I would highly recommend this series to anyone, whether they believe in God or not. I have found the series to be very comforting and uplifting because of how well the main characters are played i.e. Monica as a very approachable person, funny, and sensitive to people's feelings, Tess, who is brilliant, bold and also funny, and Andrew, a wonderful way to portray the angel of death, helping to take away the fear and trepidation. I always feel uplifted after watching these series, and often challenged by the messages in each i.e. re forgiveness, and trusting God, and hope that things can and do change if we reach our in faith to Him. Well done to the writers and cast, for portraying God and His grace in such a way that anyone can watch these and be touched, not only by an angel, but by our loving Heavenly Father as well.
Scott Amundsen "Touched by an Angel" was not the first prime-time show to put religion and spirituality at the forefront; "Highway to Heaven," in which Michael Landon played an angel, set the precedent that allowed TBAA to be produced at all, and church was prominent in such shows as "The Waltons" and "Little House on the Prairie. But TBAA remains something very special. In the Michael Landon shows (he eventually was the executive producer on "Little House" and "Highway" was his baby), the characters often did a lot of crying, but I seldom felt enough empathy to cry myself, and on the rare occasions I did I felt manipulated.TBAA is the only show that makes me cry no matter which episode I watch or how many times I see it; there's a power about the simple message "God loves you" that manages to cut through doctrinal ideas and scripture verse wars; thanks to Roma, John, and especially Della, it has a purity about its message that never fails to touch my heart and when I do shed tears (which is practically every time), I never feel manipulated because the writing was so strong it drew the viewer in and created empathy for the people on the screen.In brief, "Touched by an Angel" is in a class by itself, along with such ground breakers as "M*A*S*H," "All in the Family." "Good Times," "The Jeffersons," and the only dramatic show to have earned this distinction.
raisleygordon As far as various weekly stories go, this is a great show (some episodes more interesting than others) But, unlike "Highway to Heaven", this one wants to take the concept of an angel seriously, and the angels, especially Monica, are preachy when helping those in need. Honest to god, I think Monica's speeches (usually) are extremely preachy, not to mention corny (and I'm sure I'm not the only one that thinks so). The other angels I have no problem with. And there are even episodes that don't really require the "shed of light" or preachiness. If the person isn't in that much trouble, then the speeches don't need to be so sentimental. I think the character of Monica would be more at home in something that's actually religious. Michael Landon wasn't preachy in "Highway to Heaven", so why did "Touched by an Angel" have to be any different? The bottom line is that Monica is way way way too nice. Why most of the speeches are given by her is a real mystery.
Tami Jones (tami_loves_noles) After watching another episode on Hallmark today I decided to check out the IMDb site for the series. I read several comments and realized that whether or not individuals 'liked' the show is not as relevant as the fact that individuals reacted to it, some very strongly one way or the other. I suspect the producers saw an opportunity in the 1990's to fulfill their own purpose by creating a forum for positive messages, provocative and thought-provoking story lines and by recognizing the place faith has for billions of people on earth. And I think they did just that. I only wish more people sought such a worthy purpose and fulfilled it. The world might be a better place.
