If you're looking for a new show to binge-watch, you might just be in luck, seeing that the USA Network has just dropped a new reality sitcom that guarantees to be big on family, laughs, keeping it real, and a whole lot of soul.

Enter Pastor Richard Hartley, the choirmaster of a church in Long Island, NY. The pastor has spent years traveling with choirs, helping them achieve their musical goals, and more. But now, he's back home, ready to help his local community.

For a clear picture, the network describes its new show as: "In this hilarious, melodic and inspirational new series, there’s never a dull moment in the world of larger-than-life Pastor Richard Hartley. When he isn’t preaching and inspiring his congregation at his Long Island, NY church, he’s dealing with his rambunctious and loving family… all while utilizing his musical skills to make the church’s choir top notch. Having spent years traveling the globe working with incredible choirs and A-list musicians, Richard is now focused on his hometown choir and, with the help of his wife Stacey, trying to get his millennial children, Judea and Jordan, out of the house so that they can build their own dreams."

Staying on the road full time isn't easy, but thankfully, Pastor Hartley has had some help over the years, in the form of Miguel, his man Friday. Wondering more about who he is exactly, seeing that Miguel is the man behind the scenes making it all possible? Here's what we know about him.


 

Miguel is Pastor Richard Hartley's personal assistant

His bio on the website mentions that Miguel is "always on call to meet the Rev’s needs, no matter how ridiculous they may be." Miguel is the man that makes it possible for the Pastor to do what he does flawlessly. Although he is the 'fall guy' when things don't go the right way, Pastor Hartley has come to depend on Miguel over the years — no matter what goes wrong during rehearsals and concerts, Miguel find's a way to pull it together and make it all work.

They've known each other for over 25 years

Acting as someone's personal assistant gives you deep insight into their public and private lies — more often than not, you're bound to form a tight bond. The same can be said about Miguel and Pastor Hartley, seeing that they've known each other for over 25 years. Fondly referred to Mickey, Miguel and Hartley have formed a very close friendship over the years, on that we're sure will play out on TV.
