Angel from Hell
Jane Lynch from "Glee" takes on an imperfect guardian angel in this TV Show. She may be described as an angel from hell because she's clumsy and often, inappropriate. Nonetheless, she will be an angel you'll grow to love and appreciate, because just like other angels, she will always be there to help you and do what it takes to make you happy at the end of the day.
