Created by John Masius and produced by Martha Williamson, the series stars Roma Downey, as an angel named Monica, and Della Reese, as her supervisor Tess . Throughout the series, Monica is tasked with bringing guidance and messages from God to various people who are at a crossroads in their lives . From Season Three onward, they are frequently joined by Andrew (John Dye), the angel of death (who first appeared as a recurring character in season two). The series went into syndication in 1998, and has been shown on Ion Television (formerly PAX - TV), Hallmark Channel, Up, and Me - TV . </P> <P> The episodes of the series generally revolved around the "cases" of Monica (played by Roma Downey), a young angel recently promoted from the "search and rescue" division, who works under the guidance of Tess (played by Della Reese), a sarcastic boss who showed greater respect as an authority figure of her employee, and is more of a surrogate mother, than a mentor . Monica in one episode outlines that she started in the choir then annunciations, followed by search and rescue and then case work . Most cases involve a single person or a group of people who are at a crossroad in their lives and facing a large problem or tough decision . Monica and Tess bring them messages of hope from God and help give them guidance towards making their decision . During their first episode, the pair receive a red 1972 Cadillac Eldorado convertible as a gift; they use it for transportation throughout the rest of the series while in the human world, with Tess doing the driving . As the series progresses, Monica continues gaining experience as a case worker and, during some cases having to learn lessons of her own . </P>
