ALLRIGHT NOW, GET THE DVD BOXED SETS OUT THERE!!, February 18, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Touched By an Angel - 1st & 100th Episodes (Collectors' Edition) [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Quite honestly, this in my opinion, is the best television series ever to hit the airwaves. Of course, CBS didn't want a quality program like this on the air so what do they do??? They take it off its Sunday night family time-slot where it carried CBS for years!!! They put it on Saturday night, ditched all the promotion behind the program and the show succumbed to low-ratings.
But these two episodes on this video will show you why we need the series on DVD boxed sets. There is a HUGE CHRISTIAN MARKET OUT THERE comprised of individuals and families who enjoy wholesome, inspiring, uplifting and edifying programs. They fill us with garbage like "Sex and the City", "The Sopranos", "Will and Grace" ...typical examples of the wasteland of TV and ignore the good and morally edifying programs like TBAA!
I defy ANYONE who has not seen the 100 episode entitled Psalm 151 to cry their eyes out the first time they watch it. I have watched it countless times since its first airing and it never fails to move me much less make we well up with tears. But, as another reviewer mentioned, they are not tears of depression..they are tears of hope and joy because of this show has made the source of love known to us. That source is God!!
Paramount are you reading this?????? Get the DVD boxed sets out there now....ALL NINE SEASONS!!!!!!!!!!!

Love shines even through death, August 26, 2001
This review is from: Touched By an Angel - 1st & 100th Episodes (Collectors' Edition) [VHS] (VHS Tape)
While I find "Touched By an Angel" to generally be the most uplifting show on the air, the 100th episode - "The 151st Psalm" is probably the best they've done. The base story line revolves around a dying child. Despite this seemingly depressing base, I find that I feel good - very good - at the end. Of course, I start from a world view of hope, and I find that this episode reinforces that view. Death isn't the end, only a new beginning, and love IS eternal.

A very moving and wonderful episode., November 5, 1999
My husband and I watched episode #508, Psalm 151 starring Wynonna Judd last night (Nov 4th) and it brought us to tears. We have been watching TBAA for most of this year and find the show refreshing and heartwarming. With all the sex and violence depicted on most tv programs, it's nice to be able to find something we can enjoy with our young daughters. Thank you TBAA for being available. Keep up the good work and I pray you stay on "forever". God bless all of you who are a part of putting this show on the air. Psalm 151 (amongst many others of your episodes) are such a joy to watch. We have just ordered it to include in our video library. Thanks again.
