Aight, look, Good Omens 2 empirically does not need to happen. The book was a complete narrative that concluded satisfyingly, was adapted quite well, one of the co-authors has passed away, the story is over. It is inherently superfluous.

BUT. I am so very deeply exited for Neil Gaiman and John Finnemore's high concept Terry Pratchett tribute fanfiction featuring wacky mysteries, hopefully even more Best of Queen, and gothgirl David Tennant. That sounds rad to me.

#also #and i've talked about it before #the first season of good omens seemed like it lacked some je ne sais quoi idk #it felt a little less whimsical and intimate than the book #i'd guess it's something to do with #how narration heavy the book is and how there's probably as much depth and humor and character in the narration as in the dialogue #and making the focal point Aziraphale and Crowley (a very good move!!) leaves even less time than usual #to put that depth back into the other characters through on-screen action #but this season seems to have a more streamlined ensemble and more time for character building (25 MINUTE MINISODES?! DUDE!!)#and from what i've seen and heard from season 2 it is nothing BUT whimsical and intimate #what i'm trying to get at is like. this is the very definition of a Sequal. not a second act. a Sequal.#but i am so very exited #good omens #good omens 2 #aziraphale #crowley #neil gaiman
