Angel From Hell has traveled back to the other side.

CBS has cancelled the Jane Lynch-Maggie Lawson comedy — and will yank it from its Thursday-night comedy bloc beginning this week, TVLine has confirmed.

After premiering last month to 8.1 million total viewers and a 1.6 demo rating, Angel From Hell took a tumble in Week 2, but then stabilized in the neighborhood of a 1.4 rating — two tenths below predecessor 2 Broke Girls’ average in the time slot. With DVR playback, the comedy grew 36 percent on average.

Only five of the comedy’s 13-episode order have aired thus far. TVLine’s renewal scorecard has been updated with the information.

Will you miss the short-lived Angel From Hell?

Angel from Hell is an American single-camera fantasy sitcom created by Tad Quill. The series was greenlit to order on May 8, 2015, by CBS,[1] and premiered on January 7, 2016.[2] On February 8, 2016, CBS cancelled the series and pulled it from the schedule after the first five episodes had aired, leaving episodes that had been scheduled unaired.[3]

PremiseEdit

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

Cast and charactersEdit

  • Jane Lynch as Amy, 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.[4][5]
  • 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.[6][7]
  • 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.

ReceptionEdit

Critical responseEdit

Angel from Hell has received average reviews from critics. On Metacritic, it holds a metascore of 55/100, based on 18 reviews.[8] 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."[9]

ControversyEdit

After the series began airing, One Million Moms, a website of the American Family Association, charged that the show "disrespects Christianity".[10][11] The Christian group also suggested a list of sponsors to pull advertisements from the program.
