Good Omens live blog ep. 2
Crowley became a demon by accident? That actually explains a lot and is so in character
The narration is so clever
I love Agnes the witch
Why is Newton kinda cursed? I mean he isn't responsible for what his ancestor did
He is so pathetic that he has to scare plants, I'm dying
"You wouldn't like it" once again husband vibes
Brian: "It pretends I'm not there." *faceplants into the ice cream*
I want to have that plaid coat Anathema wears so badly
Cleaning your husbands coat without him even asking? Oh come on! They are so gay I love it
Well, that paintball game escalated quickly
Crowley has like the gayest walk ever
Oh my goodness, their faces are so close, like just kiss already, I know you want it!
Even more Queen in the soundtrack!
When he called Aziraphale "Angel" in front of Anathema, it must have looked like a pet name and you know what maybe it was
The way Crowley is still pissed because Aziraphale insulted Velvet Underground
The literal demon asked if the literal Angel is "alright", they're so in love
See you when I do the third episode

miscellaneous thoughts about Good Omens S2e5
Nina and Maggie both staying behind with Aziraphale when everyone else flees the demons. Maggie because she's a sweetheart who won't let Mr. Fell who forgave her rent and loves her records deal with whatever is happening on his own; and Nina because she's seen absolutely too much bullshit today and she's going to find out what's up with this weird bookseller who's too pure of heart to be anyone's bit on the side, his in-denial goth boyfriend, and the naked-man-turned-assistant-shopkeeper; she's going to find out what's up if it kills her. [I still haven't seen episode 6. It better not kill her]
"We aren't in danger. Crowley will be back in a moment and he will have a plan." "Why don't you stand up for yourself? Make your own plans!" "Oh, I am. But rescuing me makes him so happy!" Oh my god Aziraphale. The self-awareness. The delight that Crowley likes rescuing him. The self-awareness of how he hides his own strength, hides it behind this persona of the softness, hedonism, naivete.
Aziraphale committing to protecting Gabriel, and Gabriel in turn being willing to sacrifice himself to protect Mr. Fell and Crowley and the humans
Non-Angelic Jim!Gabriel is a far better, kinder, braver being than Supreme Archangel Gabriel
John Hamm is an amazing actor. Jim!Gabriel is completely different from Gabriel, but there are still moments where Gabriel glimmers through.
Gabriel's angel-sleeve fur coat. Where did that come from? He looks amazing lol. It gives us a beautiful epic moment, that then falls gloriously flat, not only because the demons to recognize Gabriel, but because Gabriel doesn't recognize Gabriel
"Nice one, us." Love how Crowley is so self-aware about the way they tend to accidentally self-sabatoge
Muriel is perfect and I love them
I had to go to sleep last night so I couldn't watch Episode 6 but my god I want to know what Crowley's planning, that he would (a) leave Aziraphale and (b) go to heaven!

How has my ability to cope with the finale only gotten WORSE over time like it’s been 40 days and I am no closer to reaching even a semblance of normal life again I am spending even more time on tumblr spiraling in good omens theories than I did back in July it consumes my every waking thought and I can barely focus on Real Life because I’m just like How Can It Have Ended Like This anyone else relate or am I just backsliding even deeper into the Good Omens Pit of Depression

god i can’t find the post but i saw someone say that Samson by Regina Spektor was aziracrow vibes and FUCK ME THEY WERE RIGHT IM LOSING MY ABSOLUTE SHIT RIGHT NOW
“You are my sweetest downfall // I loved you first, I loved you first […] Your hair was long when we first met”
“And the history books forgot about us // And the Bible didn't mention us // And the Bible didn't mention us, not even once”
“Beneath the stars came fallin' on our heads”
“Samson came to my bed // Told me that my hair was red // Told me I was beautiful”
LIKE ARE YOU ALL SEEING THIS???

A date after the crisis has been averted, at least temporarily.
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
You know you're down bad, completely fucked up in love when THAT is your reaction when your crush has (jokingly) called you a bastard. What's even the point, now? You're doomed!
So, I've finished watching Season 1 for the first time and here are my thoughts:
1.) I love the writing of this season overall. I haven't read the book, so can't make a comparison, but Satire is one of my favourite genres, and I love it when things like Religion and Righteousness™ are questioned and satirised.
Also, I loved how witty some of the dialogues were. This one, for example:
"I don't see what's so wrong with them (Adam and Eve) knowing the difference between good and evil." (Crowley says).
"It must be, otherwise you wouldn't have done it!" (says Aziraphale).
It effectively calls out the lack of reasoning and blind faith in the real world.
I love how nuanced these two are. Crowley is a demon and pretends to be the Big Bad but time and again proves that he does care. Even when he doesn't want to.
As for Aziraphale, he's a good person overall but it's not like he always makes the right choice. He's fucked up too. And he has said hurtful things to Crowley. For eg. he didn't have to say, "We're not friends and you and I are on the opposite sides," to Crowley. I know he was trying to protect Adam Young at first, but still.
Aziraphale is quite stuck in his own prejudices. He wants to be with Crowley but still feels compelled to be loyal to his own side - even when the other angels have been nothing but arses to him the whole time.
Crowley is more open-minded in that sense. He's got greater vision and clarity about what he wants and the things that matter to him - he's been pretty much upfront about wanting to be with Aziraphale and ditch this nonsense about the good side and the bad.
I guess that was the whole point they were trying to make in this show.
2.) Aziraphale and Crowley are head over heels in love. I know, old news, but let me as a new fan just gush about it for a second.
Ever since they meet for the first time - when Adam and Eve are escorted to Earth - their chemistry is off the charts and it looks like they're perfect for each other.
Since Episode 2, it's clear that they have feelings for each other but they don't talk about it.
I love how even with his prejudices, Aziraphale is totally with Crowley when they want the Antichrist to be a completely normal child. Aziraphale wants the same things as Crowley but doesn't want to say it out loud.
The scenes where Aziraphale dresses up as a gardener and Crowley shows up as a nanny are hilarious. That too with the wrong child because of that mix-up eleven years ago!
This is my favourite scene:
Tumblr media
It's ... nothing needs to be said. He's practically glowing with his love for the Demon.
Their banter, and the way Crowley playfully teases him sometimes - it's absolutely perfect. I love them.
3.) Coming back to my point about the other angels, can I just say I hate Gabriel? Fuck that guy.
He's the most despicable character of this show. I don't know if he gets better or worse in the next season, but for now, fuck him.
I guess I hate anyone who bullies and is condescending to Aziraphale lol.
I hate him even more than Hastur. Hastur is at least supposed to be cruel because he's a proper demon. People like Gabriel - who're supposed to be good but are actually assholes - can fuck off.
4.) I don't know if I missed it when it was being explained, but why is Crowley stuck in traffic in E5?
Tumblr media
I know there's a huge demon prayer ring of fire set up by Adam Young but Crowley is a demon, and demons aren't bound by Physics, or so the God narrator told us. Couldn't he go to Tadfield any other way?
Also, why did Hastur burn to death in that episode? I thought the only thing that kills a demon is Holy Water.
Maybe I was being dumb when I watched the show lol. Would appreciate it if someone clarified this point for me in the notes.
5.) Whoever did the voice acting of God did a fantastic job. She had a lot of sarcasm in her voice at many points and I loved that.
Also, seeing Michael Mckean as Witchfinder was such a pleasant surprise! I'm a huge Better Call Saul fan.
6.) I loved the humour of this show. These two scenes were the funniest:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
7.) Crowley's walk was my absolute favourite thing:
Tumblr media
That's all for now. See you again once I'm done with Season 2.

Currently obsessing over the way Crowley just ever so slightly wrapped his fingers around Aziraphale’s hand during the regency dance.
Tumblr media
Look at this (ignore Crowley’s snarl & the background rando).
Rent free in my mind.

Good Omens live blog ep. 10
I immediately knew it was Shax. Why did he have to invite her in?
Don't you dare insult the Bentley!
She know they are in love, but girl, you are so wrong if you think that Aziraphale isn't Crowley's type, he's been his only type since the Garden of Eden, haven't you been paying attention for the last 6000 years?
Aziraphale is lying for Crowley's safety (at which he's very bad btw), I'm so normal about them...
She's heard rumours of them dating?! Okay, I gotta take it back, I can't cope
It's the Blitz night!!! AAAARRGH
Oh no, not the magic tricks
The made Zombies canon!
That's the second time he called their relationship a friendship in one night, but I think the little pause is to show a mix of he's held back by what Heaven would think of him and him no longer thinking this is just a friendship!
I love how Crowley supports his husband even though he's such a cringefail
Crowley just doesn't give a fuck about Hell
He actually managed to do two decent magic tricks, call me surprised
The dinner scene! I'm losing my mind!
What happened to the zombies? Are they still just running around on earth killing people?
Shax has style
The Bentley is the MVP change my mind
Nina definitely needs to dump her girlfriend

There's a beautiful look of pity on Aziraphale's face when the Constable!Angel is confused by the cup of tea. It's just the briefest moment, but it's a beautiful parallel to Aziraphale's initial disgust at the idea of food, and just a beautiful character choice, to have him feel real grief for someone who has been so sheltered, for so long, in a way that he can empathize with
