Fun fact: People nowadays mistakenly attribute the snake in the garden to the devil, but in the actual story, it's literally just that: a snake. The devil wasn't interpreted into the story 'till centuries later.
"Mistakenly" is ... not the most useful term when talking about religion (or even stories really). But yes, in the original text there is no implication that the snake is anything but a snake. (And really, textually, it's more of a lizard, with legs, till its punished for its role in humans eating from the tree of knowledge, when it is cursed to forever crawl on its belly.) It was specifically Christians that decided that the snake, plus various mentions of an adversary were in fact all the same entity. There's really no being right or wrong about this kind of thing, as even weird biblical literalists wouldn't claim that bronze age jewish people thought the snake was something like the evangelical devil, the evangelicals just assert that bronze age jewish people were wrong.
I love how much of the faith of people around me is informed by glorified fanfic. Like, people think the Nine Circles in a thing, when it was just revenge pr0n written by an Italian poet, about people who he was mad at.
@@jimballard1186 actually I always say exactly that😂 I AM catholic and I love Hazbin and Good Omens. And when people ask me "Doesn't it ofrend you?" I am like "Nop😅. It is a parody of two fanfics (Divine Comedy and Paradise Lost) based on the Bible. People have the right to write about different topics in a healthy way; if not, we wouldn't have Dean Wintchester. Now, THAT would be insulting."
“I was raised Catholic but didn’t listen to shit. I was watching the light fixtures and wondering what would happen if one of them fell.” Oh good, I wasn’t the only one that zoned out. I used to sit there like I wonder what would happen if that giant cross just fell?
I was thumbing through the Bible and noting the inconsistencies and plot holes, often correcting errors with the little golf pencils they left in the pews for some reason…
As a kid I was so into mythology. Greek, Egyptian, Norse, Native American, cryptids, UFOlogy, just everything. So naturally in Catholic School I was incredibly into Bible study and Revelations was my favorite book. It’s got dragons and plagues and wars and personifications of all the world’s evil on horses. Amazing stuff. A real page-turner. 100% atheist now. Turns out reading the Bible really is the quickest way to realize it was all made up by people.
@@rosettajettson684 Yeah, according to Neil Gaiman they're sexless and thus can only be platonic. I tried putting a response linking to the tweet where he specifically said that it's a platonic love story between an angel and a demon but TH-cam auto deleted it. TH-cam does not like links in the comments LOL.
Oh give her a moment. It’ll probably come to her in the middle of the night, unexpectedly, like an angel of the lord hitting a Chevy Impala, because his aim was off.
@@fritzfliza who the fuck even cares, its just a character in a book, seriously, why do people get so "urm actually" when what there correcting is of zero importance to anything
The bit about Queen playing in Crowley's car is explained in the book as "Any tape or CD left in a car longer than two weeks will become a copy of Queen's Greatest Hits." Also once you finish this season of Good Omens I strongly recommend watching The Hillywood Show Good Omens parody video.
So the premise of the story is that you have Crowley and Aziraphael, one was supose to corrupt humanity and the other was supose to counter that corruption, but they just decide to spend thousands of years enjoying earth and humanity creations, everytime humanity do something bad, Crawley just take the credit and tell all the other demons was his doing, Aziraphale basically do the same, the two are "best friends"
Aziraphale doesnt really lie, he does lots of nice things just like Crowley does a lot of quite evil things (he literally drives over Anathema and wanted to let her there), is just pretty easy to lie "yeeeeahh I made that war" bc humans are evil Aziraphale just do kind things and lie that he fights Crowley
Some background on this show - it's based on a book that was co-written by Neil Gaiman and Sir Terry Pratchett. Neil is heavily involved in this adaptation, making it extremely accurate to the themes and spirit of the book while changing what needed to be changed for the medium of television and to update the out of date technology references. There are a lot of clever religious references, but don't worry about understanding every one of them, the story should be understandable without that. I hope you have fun! It's a wild ride, and yes, it gets pretty trippy at times.
he also put more focus on Crowley and Aziraphale, (removing some of the focus from Adam and his friends). giving us more of their background and history.
And the basic plot idea is based on the 1976 horror film "The Omen" where the baby anti-christ is successfully swapped with the new born baby of the American Ambassador rather than as in "Good Omens" the swap going wrong. (There were three sequels to "The Omen" and a remake in 2006).
he also played barty jr in harry potter and the goblet of fire too. I don't know how I didn't recongize him since I'm a harry potter crazy. I feel ashamed as a potter head. AND THAT ISN'T THE FIRST TIME THAT'S HAPPENED EITHER! lol
Fun fact:Crowley and Aziraphale are canonly nonbinary although male presenting most of the time, Good Omens's coauthor Neil Gaiman has actually once confirmed on his tumblr asks that he liked to think of Crowley as genderfluid
9:45 so the nuns and exchange of the babies is satire for the film “The Omen” is a classic horror film we’ll know to horrid fans. Basically the nuns replaced the diplomats baby with the Antichrist’s as he was growing up Damien was the reason of many deaths and crazy havoc happening around his family and even to his nanny. His birthday was also an important scene in the film.
Amazing how their solution to so much of the book's fun being in its narration style rather than dialogue or plot was to bring in Frances McDormand to say those lines as God.
The reason for the sushi restaurant setting at the start is that Terry and Neil joked about adding a sushi scene to an adaptation so they could hang out on set and eat all the sushi between takes. Sir Terry made cameos in all his films but passed away before this was made, so instead, his hat is on Aziraphale's hat stand in the shop.
Oh you are going to fall hard for this show, Morgan! Suffice to say for now, Aziraphale and Crowley have been on earth together for so long now that they're basically inseparable. Aziraphale is a being of pure love and good vibes. It was never a question to him as to whether or not he would extend that to his opposite number. Crowley calls Aziraphale "Angel" often and in public. He positevely gazes at the other and they go out to eat and drink together. They are in their own way Ineffible. 😊
Before the show started, they did a teaser trailer that was the nuns singing. It's one of the funniest things I've ever seen, please consider reacting to it!
David Tennant is very famous in the UK. He was Barty Crounch Jr in Harry Potter and the goblet of fire, Killgrave in Jessica Jones, the most popular Doctor in "Doctor Who" and many other BBC series and famous for Shakespeare plays. . and for animation he was Scrooch McDuck in the new series of Ducktales (im a fan if the series its a ton fun) and Recently he hosted the BAFTA awards (quite a trend he set on Tumblr lol) Michael Sheen was in the movoes of Underwold (vampires and werevolves) and he was also Aro the main villain in the Twilight movies (more vampires and werewolves😂).
Of all the attempts at adapting the writing style of Terry Pratchett, this show is the best. So much of the humor, flow, and energy of his stories is in the narration, which filmmakers generally try to avoid. This show did an excellent job of merging it all into something faithful to the book, but still visually compelling for the new medium. I love it so much!
Omg after this series you HAVE to watch Our Flag Means Death!! I don't know anyone who has watched Good Omens but hasn't AT LEAST seen SOMETHING about Our Flag 😭 They're almost like sister series!! I honestly think you'll really love it!! Back to Good Omens tho, I literally can't wait to see what you think of it!! It's such a goof series, and season 3 is being made!! ❤❤
@@letolethe3344 I'm aware. I said "easiest to pronounce Azirophale by thinking of it as", not "most correct to pronounce it as". The "ale" sound is easier to adjust afterwards once you have the cadence; and I find it tends to come out fairly naturally when you say it quickly, anyway.
From what I heard they’ve been trying to make this show since the book came out and honestly it’s perfectly cast. It’s just such a shame Sir Terry Pratchett couldn’t be here with us to see it adapted. You can tell it was a labor of love from Neil for STP.
I have to laugh when you mentioned the lights. AS a former church goer, I can attest that the lights were different depending on what building we were in or visiting and I would stare at the lights and wonder many things too
i'm SO HAPPY you're watching my favorite (and comfort) show!!! Hope you'll enjoy it, there is a lot of great stuff around this series and the fandom uwu
Whoa! Wasn’t expecting this from you! 😅😅😅😅😅 Just started it myself and now I have a reason to finish it! 😳 You are one of the best reactors out there, you make me laugh so hard 😅😅😅😅😅 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
"GOOD OMENS REACTION!" Huh, that's nice, it's always cool when people find and watch good med-- "by Morgan Terry" *spits tea* OMG. This going to be so much fun
I adore this show. First video I’ve seen on this channel, it popped up in my recommended. I hope you enjoy it going forward. I was raised fundie (but never was myself, I had too many questions about things that didn’t make a lick of sense). I did actually pick up the lore, so I adore how they’ve played with it in this show. So many little quips and poking fun at it. I can finally be glad to know Bible lore so I can enjoy the layers of the show, more than if I didn’t know it. The one time it’s been useful in my life.
OMG, I used to do that same thing with the light fixtures as a kid in church! xD You: [sees the baby] "Oh you poor demon!" -- I cracked up so much, so relatable.
16:20 oh Gabriel commented this earlier in the episode when he was talking to Aziraphale in the Japanese restaurant. Angels in general do not eat or drink anything. Never. They don’t dance, listen to music participate in arts or do anything remotely outside their jobs. Aziraphale is quite the exception
GOOD OMENS!!! Damn,didn't expect it at all but I'm so glad that you'll be reacting to it now. I don't have much to say honestly,it's mostly emotions rather than words in my head right now :)
I love this series so much. I can't wait for the third season. Terry Pratchett (author of the Discworld series) and Neil Gaiman (known for Coraline, Sandman, American Gods, and more) worked together on the book that the series is based on, 'Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch" which was published in 1990. They considered working on a sequel which was slated to be titled '668 - The Neighbor of the Beast', then Gaiman moved to the States in 1992 and Pratchett died in 2015. Edit: I made the rookie mistake of calling Discworld "Ringworld" x.x I have since fixed my mistake.

The Ringworld, eh? I bet that must have come as a bit of a news to Larry Niven.
Oh, this is a brilliant show! i love it so much.. you really should continue watching, it'll only get better and better :D nnd i adore crowley and aziraphale, they're so precious
Omg- normally I dont comment- but I've been watching your videos for a while and love them! I'm so excited for you to watch good omens!! (Its one of my hyper fixation shows, like hazbin)
I'm so excited to see you give a chance to Good Omens, I've loved that serie ever since I've first watched it. I love the chemistry between Michael Sheen and David Tennant, their acting skills are amazing and I've had enjoyed the story.
You are not alone at all with the light fixture thing which is really funny to me that more than just me had the same thoughts while sitting day dreaming XD
Man, I absolutely get the not paying attention in church tangent, but instead of paying attention to the lights I'd find all the cracks in the walls and ceiling and wonder which was most likely to crumble 😅😂
@@reaper6047 I still go regularly (in the church choir every other week and praise band on non church choir Sundays). Do you mind me asking which denomination you were in/are in?
@@alisond929 pretty sure it was just regular ol' Roman Catholicism, but I've always been a curious being so it was kinda like an olive branch to learn and speculate about all kinds of different beliefs and thought processes
I just started the video and literally same(about talking about church) I grew up christian (I'm still christian) and during church I just thought about if any of the lights fell 😭and yeah I never read the bible my ADHD made me way too distracted for it
This is my favorite short series in recent years. Love that you are reviewing. Best frenemy story ever. Also, david Tennant was the 10th (and best) Doctor Who.
OMG ONE OF MY FAVORITE REACTORS REACTING TO ONE OF MY FAVORITE SHOWS EEEEEEEEE!!! Edit: so. this is basically 500k mutual pining fluff (+some angst). I'm pretty sure you're going to love this. (especially the beginning of ep 3 👀👀)
So pleased you're doing this. Don't forget Season 2! We have been told that Season 3 has the go-ahead, but that won't be out for some time yet - and don't worry, you'll get the hang of it all! Crowley and Azirophale rock!
YEEEEESSS!! I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE REACTING TO THIS SHOW-- OH THIS IS AMAZING! You're gonna love it, honestly you are- I cant wait for more!! Hopefully nobody tries to spoil it ..
A few things: 1) yes, its…complicated. The chaos never ends. 2) no, you didn’t take drugs (I mean, maybe you did, idk) the show is just like that. 3) its not anti-religion, but its not exactly pro religion either? It just is. 4) the characters are Crowley and Aziraphale. Crowley is just pronounced crow-ley. Aziraphale is pronounced a-zeer-a-fail. 5) the show is so worth it, it just gets better. The book was amazing as well. 6) David Tennant was in Doctor Who a few times, he was also in Harry Potter at one point. Michael Sheen was in twilight and a few other things. They also have a shared show called Staged that is very funny. Edit: The fandom sometimes called Aziraphale Zira as a nickname
I don't know why I didn't get a notif but had to double check my youtube feed before freaking out. I LOVE THIS SERIES SO MUCH AND I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE WATCHING IT edit: it was so nostalgic to see this episode again. laughed my soul out because of how unhinged Good Omens is. fun fact: it's supposed to be a parody of the movie Omens where almost the same things happen. I mean, the Antichrist is misplaced and the angel and the demon look after the wrong child, etc. On a more serious note, at least for me, this story is a critique about religion and about love.
Okay I'm like less than a minute in and I have to say, 'Same!" My grandmother's small town church, where I ended up in the summer, had hanging fans in the rafters and one of them the cover on the mount was loose and I was always just focused on the swaying on that fucking fan, like "When you gonna drop? Can fans kill me? Why has no one fixed this?" cause yay childhood brain. That's all, that's my mini rant. I'm excited to see a reaction to Good Omens tho, loved it since I was in high school all those many years ago. If you ever get the chance to read it, and I get some people are reading fans, it is really fun because it has all these footnotes that are like when the narration just like feels like going off on a tangent about some random detail. The entire book was described by the authors as their attempts to make each other laugh.
Enjoyed this video so much it inspired me to finish the show so I can watch your future reactions to it. I was just as confused with the first episode btw, I agree - too many babies.
I love this show, you will love this show, this show is life!! It’s done right, it’s beautiful and it deserves. Keep going and don’t stop, because in the end it will be worth it . ❤ Sorry, I’m Italian and English is not my first language.
EEEEEE SO GLAD YOU'RE REACTING TO THIS!! It's one of my favorite shows ever 😁❤ I'm sure you're gonna enjoy it (also i got so excited when i saw this video that i accidentally went into a coughing fit lmao)
Welcome to the show where when we say that its gay, we don’t mean its queer baiting, its actually gay.
I haven't seen season 2 yet but I sincerely hope the chocolates scene was included in some way
@@unclewiley1986 unfortunately known but even better scenes are added! And you should watch it, but grab some tissues
@@unclewiley1986Sadly (As Neil agrees on his Tumblr) that scene didn't make the cut. But I can promise you it still is very gay, not baiting.
Don't spoil the fun UwU
Gayer than a treef full of monkeys on nitrous oxide.
Fun fact: People nowadays mistakenly attribute the snake in the garden to the devil, but in the actual story, it's literally just that: a snake. The devil wasn't interpreted into the story 'till centuries later.
"Mistakenly" is ... not the most useful term when talking about religion (or even stories really). But yes, in the original text there is no implication that the snake is anything but a snake. (And really, textually, it's more of a lizard, with legs, till its punished for its role in humans eating from the tree of knowledge, when it is cursed to forever crawl on its belly.) It was specifically Christians that decided that the snake, plus various mentions of an adversary were in fact all the same entity. There's really no being right or wrong about this kind of thing, as even weird biblical literalists wouldn't claim that bronze age jewish people thought the snake was something like the evangelical devil, the evangelicals just assert that bronze age jewish people were wrong.
I love how much of the faith of people around me is informed by glorified fanfic. Like, people think the Nine Circles in a thing, when it was just revenge pr0n written by an Italian poet, about people who he was mad at.
Well you can't trust humans to know how to go through all the paperwork of heaven and hell.
@@jimballard1186 To be fair, he also put famous contemporaries, historical figures and even one of his friends in hell.

Now, THAT would be insulting."
“I was raised Catholic but didn’t listen to shit. I was watching the light fixtures and wondering what would happen if one of them fell.”
Oh good, I wasn’t the only one that zoned out. I used to sit there like I wonder what would happen if that giant cross just fell?
OMG YES THE CROSS TOO! I completely forgot about that fixation too!
I was thumbing through the Bible and noting the inconsistencies and plot holes, often correcting errors with the little golf pencils they left in the pews for some reason…
As a kid I was so into mythology. Greek, Egyptian, Norse, Native American, cryptids, UFOlogy, just everything.
So naturally in Catholic School I was incredibly into Bible study and Revelations was my favorite book. It’s got dragons and plagues and wars and personifications of all the world’s evil on horses. Amazing stuff. A real page-turner.
100% atheist now. Turns out reading the Bible really is the quickest way to realize it was all made up by people.
For the short time I was forced to attend, I would count how many people were asleep, or making faces at my cousins/siblings.

Pronunciations:
Crowley: Crow (like the bird) Lee
Aziraphale: As Ear Uh Fail
Or as authors Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett wrote in the novel, it’s pronounced “crawl-ey” (crawly)
@@MacTechG4 Crawley is his old name, that he later changed to Crowley.
More like Fell than Fail
@@fritzfliza who the fuck even cares, its just a character in a book, seriously, why do people get so "urm actually" when what there correcting is of zero importance to anything
@@bigfrankfraser1391...no that actually is important to his character. He corrects aziraphael when he calls him crawley as well.
Morgan: did I take drugs before this?
Me: That’s how you know it’s peak British humour.
also Gaiman's preferences in art style, if you look at all the stuff Dave McKean has done with him.
The bit about Queen playing in Crowley's car is explained in the book as "Any tape or CD left in a car longer than two weeks will become a copy of Queen's Greatest Hits." Also once you finish this season of Good Omens I strongly recommend watching The Hillywood Show Good Omens parody video.
Yes!!!!!! and then every other parody they've done. (particularly fond of "this big ass coat" )

So the premise of the story is that you have Crowley and Aziraphael, one was supose to corrupt humanity and the other was supose to counter that corruption, but they just decide to spend thousands of years enjoying earth and humanity creations, everytime humanity do something bad, Crawley just take the credit and tell all the other demons was his doing, Aziraphale basically do the same, the two are "best friends"
But screwing up the M25 was genuinely Crowley's doing.
they also do the others work if needed, when it saves them on travel ;-)
Aziraphale doesnt really lie, he does lots of nice things just like Crowley does a lot of quite evil things (he literally drives over Anathema and wanted to let her there), is just pretty easy to lie "yeeeeahh I made that war" bc humans are evil
Aziraphale just do kind things and lie that he fights Crowley
"Best friends" is a bit of a stretch...............

I felt it in my soul when you said you were just analysing who the light fixtures would take out instead of listening in church
I find it easiest to pronounce Azirophale by thinking of it as "Uh-zeer-ah-fell".
Same
And that's wrong because the last syllable is pronounced "fail". Long "a", rhyming with male, bail, sail, or tale.

It's just "azi"+"raphael". For me his name is easier to remember than crowley😅
AS a fan since 2021 I'm so glad you're reacting to this!!

They don’t dance, listen to music participate in arts or do anything remotely outside their jobs. Aziraphale is quite the exception
You Don't Know How Much I'm Excited For You To React To This Show 👀🔥❤️
GOOD OMENS!!! Damn,didn't expect it at all but I'm so glad that you'll be reacting to it now. I don't have much to say honestly,it's mostly emotions rather than words in my head right now :)
I love this series so much. I can't wait for the third season. Terry Pratchett (author of the Discworld series) and Neil Gaiman (known for Coraline, Sandman, American Gods, and more) worked together on the book that the series is based on, 'Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch" which was published in 1990. They considered working on a sequel which was slated to be titled '668 - The Neighbor of the Beast', then Gaiman moved to the States in 1992 and Pratchett died in 2015.
Edit: I made the rookie mistake of calling Discworld "Ringworld" x.x I have since fixed my mistake.
The Ringworld, eh? I bet that must have come as a bit of a news to Larry Niven.
Disc :D
Ringworld, the disrespect 😭
cough - "Discworld"
x.x omg. It's Discworld, not ring world. Fixing it now
YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE THESE TWO
2:16 This was a real person, and this was his actual calculation that he put forward for the true age of the world according to the Bible.
Oh, this is a brilliant show! i love it so much..

nnd i adore crowley and aziraphale, they're so precious
Fun Fact: David Tennant and Michael Sheen became best friends while filming season 1 and even started their own show together during quarantine!
Oohh my God I am so happy you started this show I'm like obsessed whit it, it actually scary but I also hope that Elijah start's watching it too🎉
Omg- normally I dont comment- but I've been watching your videos for a while and love them! I'm so excited for you to watch good omens!! (Its one of my hyper fixation shows, like hazbin)
I’ve been trying to figure out if I want to watch Good Omens so this is perfect as a little peek with commentary
Yes, you want to watch Good Omens!
I'm so excited to see you give a chance to Good Omens, I've loved that serie ever since I've first watched it. I love the chemistry between Michael Sheen and David Tennant, their acting skills are amazing and I've had enjoyed the story.
David Tennant (Crowley) was The Doctor.
YES
AN ACTUAL REACTION OF GOOD OMENS! Please continue
omg morgan reacting to good omens, this is a moment in history
you're gonna enjoy it
The falling light thing is wayy to relatable XD
Mine had support beams and I always wondered how heavy the bolts were and who they'd fall on
oml I actually just freaked out, I love this show so much. I haven't watched to the video yet but I really hope you enjoyed it too!
You are not alone at all with the light fixture thing which is really funny to me that more than just me had the same thoughts while sitting day dreaming XD
So glad you found this show. Your reactions are cracking me up!
DUDE I LOVE GOOD OMENS SM HOLY SHIT IT WAS MY FAVORITE BOOK EVER!!!!
OMG!!! I'm so happy that you started Good Omens!!!!!❤🎉
Your reaction was so entertaining. This humor seems right up your alley.
So glad I wasn't the only one doing the light fixture thing during church a a child (Raised baptist)
Man, I absolutely get the not paying attention in church tangent, but instead of paying attention to the lights I'd find all the cracks in the walls and ceiling and wonder which was most likely to crumble 😅😂
I would just fiddle with my hair or anything around me. Or annoyed my mom with talking, of which she shushed me 😅
@@alisond929 I went mostly throughout elementary school so when I got chatty I'd joke with my nearest friend lol
@@reaper6047 I still go regularly (in the church choir every other week and praise band on non church choir Sundays). Do you mind me asking which denomination you were in/are in?
@@alisond929 pretty sure it was just regular ol' Roman Catholicism, but I've always been a curious being so it was kinda like an olive branch to learn and speculate about all kinds of different beliefs and thought processes
@@reaper6047 cool. I’m in the Methodist denomination
YESSS OMG YOU'RE GONNA LOVE THIS ONE SO MUCH
I just started the video and literally same(about talking about church) I grew up christian (I'm still christian) and during church I just thought about if any of the lights fell 😭and yeah I never read the bible my ADHD made me way too distracted for it
This is my favorite short series in recent years. Love that you are
reviewing. Best frenemy story ever.
Also, david Tennant was the 10th (and best) Doctor Who.
Totally looking forward to see your reaction to the show, it's really amazing!! Love ur reactions Morgan :3 💗🥳
OMGGGG YEEEESSSSS! I can’t wait 🎉🎉
OMG ONE OF MY FAVORITE REACTORS REACTING TO ONE OF MY FAVORITE SHOWS EEEEEEEEE!!!
Edit: so. this is basically 500k mutual pining fluff (+some angst). I'm pretty sure you're going to love this. (especially the beginning of ep 3 👀👀)
The serpent in the Garden of Eden isn't named. The association with the Devil came later
Really enjoyed watching your reaction. Hope you decide to keep this up :) - Great job regardless!
Awesome! One of my favorite reactors reacting to one of my favorite shows! Thank you so much! 🙏
So pleased you're doing this. Don't forget Season 2! We have been told that Season 3 has the go-ahead, but that won't be out for some time yet - and don't worry, you'll get the hang of it all! Crowley and Azirophale rock!
YEEEEESSS!! I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE REACTING TO THIS SHOW-- OH THIS IS AMAZING! You're gonna love it, honestly you are- I cant wait for more!! Hopefully nobody tries to spoil it ..
As a survivor of the Catholic Church, that was the best summation of the Catholic experience I have ever heard.
A few things:
1) yes, its…complicated. The chaos never ends.
2) no, you didn’t take drugs (I mean, maybe you did, idk) the show is just like that.
3) its not anti-religion, but its not exactly pro religion either? It just is.
4) the characters are Crowley and Aziraphale. Crowley is just pronounced crow-ley. Aziraphale is pronounced a-zeer-a-fail.
5) the show is so worth it, it just gets better. The book was amazing as well.
6) David Tennant was in Doctor Who a few times, he was also in Harry Potter at one point. Michael Sheen was in twilight and a few other things. They also have a shared show called Staged that is very funny.
Edit: The fandom sometimes called Aziraphale Zira as a nickname
i've been hyperfixating on this show i'm so glad they're reactin to it
I don't know why I didn't get a notif but had to double check my youtube feed before freaking out. I LOVE THIS SERIES SO MUCH AND I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE WATCHING IT
edit: it was so nostalgic to see this episode again. laughed my soul out because of how unhinged Good Omens is.
fun fact: it's supposed to be a parody of the movie Omens where almost the same things happen. I mean, the Antichrist is misplaced and the angel and the demon look after the wrong child, etc.
On a more serious note, at least for me, this story is a critique about religion and about love.
Pretty much any time you have a question, they will answer it a little bit after. Except for the stuff they're saving for later.
The audiobook of this is PHENOMENAL
Just came across your channel and I cannot wait to go on this journey with you!
I dont know if you catched it because you were confused in the intro but the woman narrator is God. Good omens said god is a woman 💅✨
OMG LETS GOOO! Finally a depiction of god as a woman 🙌
Okay I'm like less than a minute in and I have to say, 'Same!" My grandmother's small town church, where I ended up in the summer, had hanging fans in the rafters and one of them the cover on the mount was loose and I was always just focused on the swaying on that fucking fan, like "When you gonna drop? Can fans kill me? Why has no one fixed this?" cause yay childhood brain.
That's all, that's my mini rant. I'm excited to see a reaction to Good Omens tho, loved it since I was in high school all those many years ago. If you ever get the chance to read it, and I get some people are reading fans, it is really fun because it has all these footnotes that are like when the narration just like feels like going off on a tangent about some random detail. The entire book was described by the authors as their attempts to make each other laugh.
AAAA, LET'S GOOOO!!!!
"I have never seen this show" oooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Yay i am excited 😊
Enjoyed this video so much it inspired me to finish the show so I can watch your future reactions to it.
I was just as confused with the first episode btw, I agree - too many babies.
I'm so glad I clicked on this, you made this a hundred times better 😂
Welcome to the Good Omens brain rot, you will never be the same :D
I love this show, you will love this show, this show is life!! It’s done right, it’s beautiful and it deserves. Keep going and don’t stop, because in the end it will be worth it . ❤
