Premise

The series is about an angel named Amy, who acts as a guardian for Allison, forming an unlikely friendship.

Main

  • Jane Lynch as Amy Cass, a mysterious and odd individual who reveals herself to be an angel. She has a crazy persona and can make unbelievable predictions that come true. It is suggested that Amy has been watching Allison since childhood.
  • Maggie Lawson as Allison Fuller, a dermatologist who likes to multi-task and is a perfectionist. She thinks that Amy is nuts, until she discovers that Amy knows everything about her and starts believing her crazy predictions.
  • Kyle Bornheimer as Brad Fuller, Allison's younger brother, who lives above her garage.
  • Kevin Pollak as Marv Fuller, Allison's dermatologist father and boss.

    • Recurring

  • Ginger Gonzaga as Kelly, Allison's former best friend who comes back into her life.
  • Constance Marie as Linda, Marv's new love interest.
  • David Denman as Evan, Allison's boyfriend whom she discovers has been cheating on her.

    • Critical response

    Angel from Hell has received average reviews from critics. On Metacritic, it holds a metascore of 55/100, based on 18 reviews. On Rotten Tomatoes, the series Tomatometer is 41%, based on 29 reviews, with an average rating of 5/10. The critics' consensus reads: "Banish thee from the airwaves, oh Angel from Hell, for sins of commonplace sitcom triteness and obnoxious use of an iconic comedic lead."

    Controversy

    After the series began airing, One Million Moms, a website of the American Family Association, claimed that the show "disrespects Christianity". The Christian group also suggested a list of sponsors to pull advertisements from the program.
