A trio of angels travels the Earth, inspiring people at crossroads in their lives to turn to God. But the angels aren't only teaching people -- they are also learning lessons themselves. Tess, a more experienced angel, assigns Monica and sometimes, Andrew (who is also the Angel of Death), to a case in each episode, usually with an eye not only toward helping the person, but to drive home a lesson to the angel as well. The people being assisted have no idea that their benefactors are angels, of course. But when the person's issue has been dealt with, the angels reveal themselves in a halo of light, and reassure their charges that God loves them.

Michael Blowen Boston Globe Sugary, maudlin, sentimental myth making. Feb 24, 2021 Full Review Ken Tucker Entertainment Weekly Touched by an Angel succeeds in being so unpretentiously, innocently pure-minded - this is the Forrest Gump of fall '94 - that it's possible to feel sympathy for its ratings plight. Jun 6, 2019 Full Review Tom Jicha South Florida Sun-Sentinel It will require a lot of blind faith and the patience of a saint to wade through an hour of this sappy goo. Absent divine intervention, this is the season's quickest cancellation. Jan 12, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
