More Angels on The CW

The Messengers starts tomorrow night (April 17) on The CW.  And while I was hoping for an angel-related spin-off from Supernatural, this new series will take a whole new approach.  It relates to five individuals who died after a strange object crashes to Earth and find they returned to life as the angels of the Apocalypse.  Now they need to fight the "devil" on behalf of humanity.  Here is a short clip.  

You may recognize J.D. Pardo from NBC's Revolution and Diogo Morgado from The Bible (he played Jesus).  Diogo describe the series in this interview on ShareTV.  He seems to be playing the opposite of Jesus this time.

In addition to Supernatural, we have angels on SyFy's Dominion as well as a guardian angel on Fox's Sleepy Hollow, so this is not new ground.  The question now is whether The Messengers is a worthwhile addition to this genre.
