Synopsis of Highway to Heaven
Jonathan Smith is an angel sent to Earth in human form with a mission: to help those in need. Along the way he crosses paths with Mark Gordon, a bitter retired police officer who drifts from one job to another with no direction. At first Mark distrusts him, but ends up helping him carry out his assignment and begins to believe in his true nature. Together they travel the highways through towns and cities, taking jobs and identities that bring them close to the people marked by providence. Jonathan puts his heavenly abilities to work and Mark puts his life experience to use, advising and inspiring those people to overcome their hardships. Created by William F. Claxton and Michael Landon, the series airs on NBC and stars Michael Landon and Victor French.
