News New Jane Lynch Series "Angel from Hell" Debuts on CBS Tonight "Angel from Hell," a new comedy starring "Glee" Emmy winner Jane Lynch, makes its series premiere on CBS Jan. 7 at 9:30 PM ET; check local listings.

Lynch, who made her Broadway debut in the 2012 revival of Annie, is joined by Maggie Lawson, Kevin Pollak and Kyle Bornheimer.

The new comedy, according to CBS, concerns "Amy, a colorful, brassy woman who insinuates herself into the life of an organized and seemingly perfect young woman, Allison, claiming to be her 'guardian angel.' Allison is an intense, driven doctor who is sure that Amy is just an inebriated, outspoken nut, until every one of her warnings proves true. Cautioned by Amy not tell anyone about her, Allison can’t discuss this over-the-top oddball with her father and business partner, Marv, or her younger brother, Brad, a sales rep who lives in a guest room over her garage. As Allison tries to push Amy away, Amy makes her final pitch: her sole mission is to provide Allison with helpful guidance that nudges her in the right direction in life – and it’s her final chance to prove herself as an angel. With that, Allison agrees to this unlikely relationship because maybe a weird friend is exactly what she needs… and what if Amy really is her 'guardian angel?'"

Lynch stars as Amy with Lawson as Allison.

"Angel from Hell" is written by creator and executive producer Tad Quill and directed by executive producer Don Scardino.
