Good Omens is brilliant! One of my most-loved things from the last year (or so)
Just started on this over the weekend. Only 4 or 5 episodes in but loving it so farThanks to you pricks for the Superstore tip - I am ploughing through it. Glenn is a hero, some of the secondary characters (eg the cynical guy who films traimp fights?) are amazing, and I especially love the little customer vignettes with accompanying soundtracks - did you catch the bowling alley scene into the crate of beer with Twisted Sister playing in the background. So surreal. Love it!
I definitely moaned about it on here. and I stand by my moans.Yeah, I'm not one for that Pratchetty twee Englishness (I've never read any of his books, herself is a fan though). Good Omens has that, but lightly, it was good fun. I remember when it came out I heard a lot of "meh" about it. I'm glad I checked it out.
You have just made an enemy.I can't warm to Glenn though.
Where do you stand on Mateo, and his hair?I like Jonah's hair though.
Nice and tidy.Where do you stand on Mateo, and his hair?
Really? I just loved the relationship at the centre of it.I definitely moaned about it on here. and I stand by my moans.
Two great performances, I just thought the script (or maybe the direction or something) didn't work and the whole thing was a boring, muddled, mess that they didn't sufficiently finish translating from the novel to the screen. Funny that seanc up there accuses Pratchett of being twee when my main issue with this adaptation is that they made it twee. I'll live.Really? I just loved the relationship at the centre of it.

Pratchett was mostly an exasperated, angry writer, but he did like puns so I guess that's pretty twee. He also wrote a book every couple of months so he was one of those writers who could release a dud and a cracker in the same year multiple times. Anyway, I thought the Good Omens adaptation sucked so that's where we are. I lay the blame at the feet of Neil Gaiman.Well as I said I haven't read any of the books. But every TV adaptation I've seen of his seems to involve something *extraordinary* happening in.....Tunbridge Wells, or somewhere like that. Everyone is delightfully eccentric and there's loads of plinky string music that implies something humourous is happening. All of which I find twee and annoying. But Good Omens was good.
Good Omens is the only TV adaption I've seen, and that's great (sticks tongue out at @Lili Marlene ) The books can be v variable and ... erm, I can't recall any of them being set in England. Some of the Ringworld settings, like the Unseen University and the chalk downs are kind of English-y, I suppose. He has some cracking characters though, and when they're good they're very goodevery TV adaptation I've seen of his seems to involve something *extraordinary* happening in.....Tunbridge Wells, or somewhere like that
He hid that well in fairness. Whimsical yes, twee maybe, but anger definitely didn’t come across in any of the *chortle fantasy* that I read by him.Pratchett was mostly an exasperated, angry writer
