Man, I hate this show for making me cry in every single episode... But that's about it when it comes to hating this show. Pretty much everything else about it is great! This episode was no exception. We still don't know who's behind the God account but, quite honestly, I don't really want to know. I like the whole mystery about it. I like having Miles, Cara and Rakesh helping people every week. They have a good thing going on, there. If you think about it, once they figure out the "who" and "why" behind the God account, the show loses its purpose. So either they reveal that in a series finale or they have to get really creative to keep the show going on after that. With that in mind, let's see what the season finale coming up next has in store for us...
So here's an example of things that are bad with this show.
The crew are helping a woman find her birth parents. Miles is also hitting that moment in every tv show when the girlfriend who won't last starts to feel like a second fiddle.
What happens is that Miles is supposed to go to the movies with his girl when they find a clue. So Miles has to cancel his plans to track down the clue.
But why? What kind of time management is this? What clue wouldn't survive two hours to watch a bloody movie?
It completely belies the whole reason he doesn't take the girlfriend with him. He claims to want to keep his romantic life separate from his philanthropic one but he doesn't have a personal life anymore. He doesn't have friends unassosiated with the account, he doesnt do non account things. Nia far from being turned off by the account (which would be valid reason for the "church-state" line Miles draws in his relationship with her), is actively interested in joining him. He has a chance to do his work and keep his romantic partner happy by doing it with her. It's the sort of thing that could bond them together. HIs friends and 'real' romantic interest haven't expressed opposition.
The whole thing in one scene gives you about 3 of the 10 things wrong with this show and there's a bunch of scene like this throughout the show little scenes that don't make sense and represent about 3-4 things that keep popping up wrong in the show. Only the light nature of the show (and my completionist tendancies after all I DO want to see who the account holdler ends up being) keeps me turning in week after week.

Ah, yes, God Friended Me, or as I like to call it, Grown Man Weeps Silently For At Least Twenty Minutes While Watching Sappy-Ass Network Show.
