Raise your hand if you're in the market for a guardian angel!

On the new CBS comedy Angel From Hell, Amy (Jane Lynch) is hardly your average guardian angel. Between her love of creme de menthe and tendency to overshare, it might seem difficult to take serious advice from her. However, behind her brassy facade, Amy means well and only has Allison's (Maggie Lawson) best interest in mind.

While we try to figure out if Amy is a real heavenly being or just some quirky crazy lady, here are 9 more CBS characters who we wouldn't mind watching over us from above.
