Amazon.com: Touched by an Angel wasn't the first TV show with a heavenly theme, but it set a new standard for a compassionate portrayal of Christian themes on television. Roma Downey, with flowing brunette locks and a soft Irish lilt, plays Monica, a divine case-worker sent from town to town to lend an angelic hand. Sometimes it's as simple as helping a dying man reach out to those he loves before it's too late; sometimes she has to face the Devil himself--in the closing episode of the first season, Monica is sent to make sure an AIDS hospice opens despite the opposition of white supremacists being led by Satan (played by John Schneider, formerly of The Dukes of Hazzard). Earthy Della Reese plays Tess, Monica's supervisor, who takes an active role in quite a few cases. Touched by an Angel is unlikely to persuade dubious viewers to join the faith, but though all episodes resolve themselves through the intervention of God and his divine messengers, the show's view of humanity has hope and dignity.
Touched by an Angel also features an impressive array of guest stars, ranging from country music star Randy Travis to Academy Award winner Cloris Leachman (The Last Picture Show) to Marion Ross (Happy Days); one episode, about a radio talk-show host fighting with her teenage daughter, features Melissa Joan Hart (Sabrina the Teenage Witch), James Marsden (X-Men), and Jack Black (School of Rock), all before their careers took off. Touched by an Angel: The Complete First Season has the first 13 episodes from 1994-95 and, as a bonus, the two-part series finale from 2003. --Bret Fetzer

Excellent, I hope the rest comes onto video. It is still as of Oct 2009 on the Hallmark channel if you want to preview it. Season 5 started and you cannot buy it yet. The episode "Lady of the Lake" made me cry a little being from a lake and forest in Oregon and having a logging family and I saw trees and land dying, then replanting as well. If you need a reminder...this series may help and heal. I am sending it too the 14 yr old twins we have who's mother died and their dad had a heart attack ... Read More

I remember watching this series back in the 90's. I just had to own it, so I could watch it whenever I wanted to.

I really do like "Touched by An Angel", but the endings are always the same. The angels arrive in disguise on the scene to help some clueless human see the error of their ways. This usually doesn't work so they turn on the glow and announce "I am an angel and God loves you". This of course solves everything and everyone goes away happy. Of course if they had done this at the beginning of the episode, there wouldn't be much of a show!
I much prefer "Highway to Heaven" where Michael Landon ... Read More
