Grade It: Best, Worst, and Most Emotional Moments of God Friended Me Season 2
It wasn’t until the final few episodes of God Friended Me Season 2 that we learned they were also the final few episodes of the series.
The series was not renewed at CBS, which killed the shows momentum and left fans heartbroken.
Not only was the series picking up steam about the God Account, but it was also delivering some incredibly powerful storylines through the Friend Suggestions and the core trio, Miles, Cara, and Rakesh.
During these difficult and unprecedented times, the series was a beacon of light offering hope and promise. And it continued to be so until the very end with a finale that gave fans closure and brought Miles back to his faith.
Let’s take a stroll down memory lane and look back at season 2:
Best Friend Suggestion – Holocaust Survivor Abe
There were plenty of strong and emotionally driven Friend Suggestions this season. As Miles established a groove and embraced his role fully, he was better able to help those who may not have even been aware that they needed his help.
However, one Friend Suggestion sticks out so vividly because I was a complete mess throughout the whole episode. That Friend Suggestion is Abe (guest star Judd Hirsch) on God Friended Me Season 2 Episode 11.
Abe was a Holocaust survivor who spent his whole life looking for answers about whether or not his sister, Rose, survived.
Some Friend Suggestion storylines are predictable and easy to crack, but it wasn’t clear if Rose was alive until the very end when Miles and Joy reunited the long lost siblings in what was surely one of the most touching and beautiful moments on television.

“A New Hope” — Miles discovers a new clue as to who is behind the God Account when Joy (Jessica Lu) reveals that his friend suggestions have all been clients of the same insurance company. Her theory is reinforced when they realize that Miles’ latest friend suggestion, Abe (Judd Hirsch), a Holocaust survivor looking for information on his sister’s fate, is also a client of the company, on GOD FRIENDED ME, Sunday, Jan. 5 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

Worst Friend Suggestion – Trevor
Some episodes were better than others, and the same goes for Friend Suggestions. The worst Friend Suggestion of the season came towards the end of the season on God Season 2 Episode 21. While Trevor helped Miles realize his feelings for Cara, he was also insufferable.
He had a bone to pick with Miles because he claimed the God Account ruined his life when it reunited the woman he loved, Rose, with Lt. Freemont thus leaving him heartbroken and betrayed.
Of course, Miles had nothing to do with the fact that Rose thought of Trevor as a brother, and when he refused to sabotage Rose and Freemont’s relationship on the eve of their wedding, Trevor outed Miles’ feelings for Cara in the comments section of his podcast.
Trevor also made terrible decisions like telling Rose how he felt while giving a speech at her wedding rehearsal. I’m still cringing.

“The Fugitive” — Miles, Cara and Rakesh try to stay a step ahead of a bounty hunter, Bonnie (Erica Tazel), who’s searching for Miles’ new friend suggestion, a petty criminal-turned-fugitive for evading court. Also, when Miles loses interest in who’s behind the God Account, Rakesh intensifies the search by planning to hack a powerful government super computer that can break through the Account’s firewall, on GOD FRIENDED ME, Sunday, April 12 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

Best Team-Up – Rakesh and Zach
Zach was Miles’ Friend Suggestion and after they got him out of trouble, Rakesh realized Zach was an incredibly talented coder and a good addition to the team.
He took him on as an intern at Identity Seal, which proved to be useful as Zach came in handy when they wanted to hack the God Account’s mainframe.
Mostly, this duo was my favorite because they had such a fun bond and provided witty one-liners. Zach always kept it real.
Character That Needed Closure – Joy
Joy was introduced on the backend of God Friended Me Season 1 when she was sent Miles’ name as a Friend Suggestion.
At first, she was cold and unapproachable, but as we got to know her, and the God Account began to make an impact on her, Joy became part of the God Squad.
We learned she was in New York because she gave her daughter up for adoption and while she was able to have some closure by meeting her daughter and seeing that she was doing well, it always felt like Joy’s story was far from over.
It would have been nice to have her return for the finale, and who knows, maybe she would’ve been back somehow if there was a third season.
Couple That Showed True Promise – Ali and Emily
It’s unfortunate that Ali found love and a dedicated partner towards the end of the series because we never got to see thier relationship fully blossom.
Ali was skeptical of starting a relationship not only because she’d been burned before but because she didn’t want to drag anyone into her mess. When she met Emily while freezing her eggs and gearing up for cancer treatment, it was the worst time but also the best time.
Emily proved to be the best thing to happen to Ali; she by her side throughout the cancer battle, she supported her, and she loved her. It would’ve been great to see their relationship blossom outside of the cancer storyline and maybe even see them start a family of their own.
Ali always deserved a happy ending.

7 Hottest Moments Between Thony and Arman on ‘The Cleaning Lady’

Arman and Thony have an intense and electric bond on The Cleaning Lady.
While they let the passion get to them on a few occasions, they’ve mostly kept things PG. So, how can there be so many “hot moments” between them, you ask. Well, good question!
When it comes to these two, it’s not only about the physical connection but the emotional as well. It’s about every longing gaze, stolen glance, and forbidden touch. It’s about all the times Arman helps Thony at his own discretion, and in turn, it’s the loyalty and support she extends to him.
Here are the hottest and steamiest moments between Arman (Adan Canto) and Thony (Elodie Yung) on The Cleaning Lady Season 1!
Season 1 Episode 1
Not only does Arman spare Thony’s life, but he “hires her” as the cleaning lady in order to justify keeping her alive. He sees something in her that not only piques his interest but also reminds him of himself. When Thony stands up to him at the airport hangar for the first time, she’s setting the scene for their season-long tug-and-pull dynamic. Arman acknowledges that she’s a woman that “commands respect” while noting that he’s “offering that to her.” He also reminds her that as immigrants, they need each other, and she needs him as he can play a huge role in keeping her son alive. It’s a key scene in order to establish the ground rules between these two power players — even if they are told at every turn that they have no power.

Season 1 Episode 1
When Arman risks his own life to save Thony’s after he realizes he’s basically walked her into a trap, it’s one of the first moments where he admits, subconsciously, that he cares for her. After the explosion, she pays him back for saving her life by saving his, which is when she reveals that there’s much more to her than meets the eye. Arman is impressed with how well she works under pressure, but Thony once again reminds him that it’s a give and take relationship. “You want me to work for you, protect me. Give me the respect I deserve. And if anything happens to me, swear my son will be protected.” He gave her his word… and he never lied.

Season 1 Episode 2
With Luca dying in her arms, Thony realizes she’s out of options and seeks out Arman and the club, who rushes to her aid and brings her to a private doctor that’s paid off by Hayak. Arman doesn’t just drop Thony off — he carries Luca inside, takes her burden, and sticks around to make sure that she’s okay. While he’s offering a shoulder to cry on, he realizes that he trusts her enough to open up about his past, which reveals that he understands Thony’s predicament all too well as he’s done the unthinkable to protect his family, too. The moment humanizes him in Thony’s eyes and the eyes of the audience. And when he sees that she looks at him with judgment for the career that he chose, it almost seems like he wants to become a better man for her.

Season 1 Episode 6
When Arman notices that Thony is upset about Luca’s procedure, he comforts her. He allows her to have a full-on breakdown (one of Thony’s only moments of weakness in the series) and cradles her in his arms. And all those heightened emotions lead to a very unexpected yet passionate kiss. I mean… really passionate. You cannot fake that kind of chemistry! Thony stops things before they escalate to the point of no return, but it’s enough to satiate all the fans that have been long shipping the couple.
Season 1 Episode 7
When Thony informs Arman that she can’t afford the surgery and the liver donor, Arman offers to pay for the surgery, assuring her that he couldn’t have secured a huge deal with Thony’s intel from the FBI. “I’m in too deep now,” he says with an adorable smile, which definitely implies that he’s not just doing this for Luca. However, when Thony mentions that she’ll have to “talk to her husband” who has arrived in the U.S., Arman’s whole demeanor changes. The guy has absolutely no poker face, but it’s because he simply can’t hide himself or his emotions in front of the woman he loves. And while the moment isn’t exactly “hot,” it does reveal just how bad Arman has it for Thony. Plus, he’s still willing to pay for the surgery even with Thony’s husband in the picture, which is admirable.
Season 1 Episode 8
The kiss right before Luca’s surgery was perfection. Unlike their first make-out session, this kiss was rooted in trust, honesty, and longing. Arman risked everything to get Thony and Luca across the border in a private jet because he cares about her so much and knows he might not have her around for much longer. The kiss is prefaced by a sweet talk where Thony reveals so much happened in Vegas that she’d like to forget, which prompts Arman to suggest, “hopefully, not everything.” “Not everything,” Thony admits.
Season 1 Episode 10
Arman and Thony are like the modern-day Bonnie and Clyde. In one fell swoop, they worked together to take down Hayak and stole the $6 million from the gun sale after agreeing to help the FBI make the arrests. The action-packed episode didn’t allow for any real romantic moments, but the very fact that they trust each other enough to get into bed with the FBI while pulling one over on FBI at the same speak volumes.
Also, the longing gaze and hang caressing while Thony visits Arman in jail is enough to make fans go crazy waiting for more #Armony (should we make that a ship name?).

Baddest and Boldest Babes on TV in Honor of Women’s History Month

With Women’s History Month and International Women’s Day underway, we’re celebrating some of the most inspiring women on TV!
And there’s no shortage of them carving out their path. Powerful leads have taken a bite out of the TV industry — and from the looks of it — they aren’t planning on slowing down anytime soon.
Here are some of our favorite babes on TV — in no particular order:
Beth, Annie, and Ruby on Good Girls
These three put the I in independent. They took care of their families at all costs. And I mean all costs. Women can be so many things at once, and these three noncomforing ladies were proof that you can be a housewife, a mom, and a boss babe simultaneously.

GOOD GIRLS — “You” Episode 413 — Pictured: (l-r) Mae Whitman as Annie Marks, hristina Hendricks as Beth Boland, Retta as Ruby Hill — (Photo by: Jordin Althaus/NBC)
Midge Maisel – The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel
Is there anything more empowering than a woman stripping herself of the housewife title and declaring that she’ll make her own money by pursuing comedy? No, no there isn’t. A woman thriving in a male-dominated world…. we love to see it. And we love Mrs. Maisel.
Thony – The Cleaning Lady
Thony is the definition of a strong woman. She’s faced roadblocks and injustices at every turn, but she tackles them head-on because she loves her son more than anything in this world. She’s stared fear straight in the face and pushed through hoping for the best while expecting the worst. A special shout-out goes to right-hand, Fi!

Maddie, Dana, and Helen – The Sweet Magnolias
These god-fearing, margarita-loving women are an inspiration to all, including the town of Serenity. Each one of them is a pillar of strength and love, and their friendship is proof that women are better off when they’re supporting each other and lifting each other up rather than tearing each other down.

Mel – Virgin River
After experiencing an unimaginable loss, Mel found the courage to not only move to a new town where she didn’t know anyone, but she gave love another shot. She’s proof that life doesn’t always turn out the way you want it, but you’re always in control of your own happiness. Even if it means that you have to spend some time grieving and mourning what once was before you can stand in the sunshine.
Nancy Drew
From a young age, Nancy knew that she was destined to be a detective. She looks fear in the face and laughs. She gets knocked down, but she always gets back up again because she knows that her skills are far superior to any other detective in Horseshoe Bay. And she inspired a whole group in town as an honorable mention goes out to her fearless tribe who would travel to the ends of the mortal and supernatural world to support her.

Jenny and Cassie – Big Sky
Their PI work has gotten them wrapped up in some pretty shady and sus cases, but these two have never let fear guide their decisions. While they initially allowed their feelings for the same man to cloud their judgment, they put that aside once they realized that they make a phenomenal team and need each other to stay sane while hunting some dangerous criminals and making the world a safer place for other women.

BIG SKY – ÒTrust IssuesÓ – Reeling from the emotional news of JosephÕs death, Jenny and Cassie desperately search for answers. After Bridger and Madison receive a threatening call from Ren, Max and Rachel take matters into their own hands, frantically deciding to confide in Jenny about the drugs and money. Elsewhere, Dietrich becomes hellbent on revenge following his discovery of TravisÕ betrayal; and Wolf and Agatha attempt to protect Phoebe, but thanks to Ronald, all does not go according to plan on ÒBig Sky,Ó THURSDAY, FEB. 24 (10:01-11:00 p.m. EST), on ABC. (ABC/John Britt)
KATHERYN WINNICK, KYLIE BUNBURY
Ruth – Ozark
Who would have thought that Ruth would be the heart and moral compass of Ozark? But she is. Not only is she the most rounded character, but she’s also the one that is always there for the people she loves while also trying to carve out a better path for herself. She’s endured a lot of loss, but she’s not defined by her past. She’s a quick learner, a good businesswoman, and her determination to come out on top allows for some pretty boss moments throughout the series as she realizes her worth.
Jules, Madison, Izzy, and Stella – Dollface
The ladies of Dollface emphasize the importance of female friendships in your life. It’s important to surround yourself with inspiring women who will lift you up, give you advice, praise you, compliment you, and be a shoulder to cry on when life gets hard, when romantic relationships get complicated, and when you’re not feeling fulfilled in your career. Life is always better with your girls around!
This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to female characters that deserve a spot on the list.
