Jason Ritter portrays a “cluelessly self-serving person” hopelessly in the depths of despair. His character travels home to stay with his sister, a widow played by JoAnna Garcia Swisher.

His first night reuniting with family proves to be a memorable one as a celestial being named Yvette comes to him and asks him to save the world. Kimberly Hebert Gregory plays the part of the heavenly creature whose arrival coincides with a meteorite crashing near Kevin.

According to imdb.com, the series is filming in Texas at San Antonio International Airport and the Perry-Castaneda Library in Austin, which are the only two locations listed.

ABC calls the program “a unique one-hour drama, filled with hope, heart and a good dose of irreverent humor.”
