'God Friended Me' Renewed For a Second Season
Since "God Friended Me" is one of the most-watched shows on Sundays, it was a no-brainer for CBS to renew it.
The show announced the news on Twitter, using the "praise hands" emoji, of course.
The series is about an atheist (Brandon Micheal Hall) whose life changes when God friends him on Facebook. It averages 10 million viewers, making it the second-most-watched new series and most-watched scripted program airing on Sundays.
"We’re thrilled with how ‘God Friended Me’ has performed on Sundays. It’s one of the top three new series on television, has improved its time period significantly, and continues a long tradition of prestige dramas for CBS on the night," said Kelly Kahl, president of CBS Entertainment, in a statement.
"God Friended Me" costars Violett Beane, Suraj Sharma, Javicia Leslie and Joe Morton.
