‘God Friended Me’: He Said/She Said With Brandon Micheal Hall & Violett Beane (VIDEO)
Exclusive
God Friended Me‘s atheist podcaster Miles (Brandon Micheal Hall) helps people suggested by a mysterious social media account — and that’s taken a toll on his relationship with Cara (Violett Beane).
The couple split earlier this season, and she’s been seeing a fellow journalist, Adam (Chris Conroy). But the God Account’s latest friend suggestion has Miles wondering whether he should tell his ex he still has feelings for her. (Watch an exclusive sneak peek below of Miles’ personal life and the friend suggestions colliding.)
The drama’s Hall and Beane give us their take.
What was your first impression of each other?
Brandon Micheal Hall: That she was very talented and highly intelligent! Violett is someone who has a huge heart and an even better sense of humor.
Violett Beane: He’s a very chill, easygoing guy.
Why do you think Miles and Cara broke up?
Hall: Their friendship was more important than trying to make something work that wasn’t supposed to at that time. But it was sad nonetheless.
(Peter Kramer/2019 Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc.)
Beane: They believed the God Account would help his sister Ali [Javicia Leslie] beat cancer if they did. I also think Cara felt betrayed over her stepfather [Tom Everett Scott as Paul — in prison thanks to Miles and the God Account’s interference].
Is this new guy right for her?
Hall: Nope. He’s not Miles. Period.
Beane: They challenge each other creatively and could be good together.
Should Miles tell Cara what’s in his heart?
Hall: Yes. Telling the truth only opens doors for more possibilities.
Beane: It’s a risk I would be willing to take because I wouldn’t be able to live with a secret like that. You can’t help who you love!
Are you rooting for them to get back together?
Hall: I’m rooting for them to be happy, whether that’s as friends or romantically.
Beane: I think they’re meant to be, so yeah.
Watch an exclusive sneak peek at Sunday’s episode below:
Based on what we’ve seen, who would you say is behind the God Account?
Hall: Whoever is behind it has a plan in place for Miles. Whatever that plan is, it’s going to take him to new and greater heights beyond religion!
Beane: My best guess is Ali. She’s always wanted Miles to rekindle his relationship with their father [Joe Morton’s Arthur Finer, a bishop] and find his faith again.

This show God Friended Me. Was something that this society really needed. Call me old school, but it was refreshing and wonderful to have a show like this!!! “(Wholesome)” The show had some great story lines and some controversial issues that Miles had to work out with his suggestions and Family it showed viewers how to treat each other. Respect, love , and Faith especially in these times!!! I will cherish these Sunday nights that I had throughout these past 2 seasons. Going to miss this show greatly and god bless everyone who developed this show 💜💜

We were shocked to see this was cancelled, we watched every show since the beginning. We made comment each time that it was well written, with great entertainment value, like a puzzle with each show fitting into another. There were values, with issues and principles that are rare in programming now. Will miss this show

I guess we can longer have shows that bring people together. Too many forces now that just need the word "God" removed from the vocabulary. As if that would make their lives better. Good luck with that.

I really enjoyed this show and the premise of our guidance with GOD. Hard to believe that a show that brings hope and joyful entertainment would be cancelled. Given up on!!! with all the 'shootem up' and 'reality' crap- why not have a show that brings a warm emotion to audiences??? Can tv not be that? Bring it back or hopefully another network will.
