Today's vent:
Something i haven't seen discussed much on here (possibly because I've been avoiding the tags because of all the hate) is that
CROWLEY AND AZIRAPHALE AREN'T IN THE BOOK OF LIFE
Michael burns the entire book. Crowley saves a *single* page. Yet Aziraphale and Crowley persist. Even when God "makes a universe" without them in it.... They still are. They persist. Aziraphale and Crowley are as foundational to creation as God and Satan themzelves (you'll notice Satan also didn't have a page)
Aziraphale and Crowley can not be destroyed in any way that truly matters.
This is one thing that’s been bothering me. Where tf are Crowley and Aziraphale’s pages???? We saw that they exist in the promo material, but why weren’t they destroyed when the book was burned?
The 5 real themes of good omens that the finale completely botched
I know we only had 1 episode and whole plotlines were scrapped but I was just left feeling so empty after the finale given how powerful and moving and profound the themes of season 1/the book were. So buckle up for a long ride let's talk about it
Theme 1: Human Incarnate
The book and the show established that humanity is unique because it is neither purely good or purely bad. From the book: "Most of the great triumphs and tragedies of history are caused not by people being fundamentally good or fundamentally evil, but by people being fundamentally people." This Aziraphale describes as "much better" than either Heaven or Hell
This is one of my favorite sequences in the whole show. And the music is soaring and gorgeous (but was never released in the official soundtrack, unfortunately, but I digress). Adam recalls the things in his life he has come to know and love; his parents, his friends, his dog, his home. He makes it have nice weather all year. Aziraphale could feel that love at the Tadfield Manor. Heaven and Hell tried to create an instrument of destruction. But by putting that inside a human boy, they didn't realize the strength of that boy's love would be strong enough to literally burn the hell out of him. He told Satan himself to shove it and rewrote reality to have the dad he truly loved. The power of humanity's love is stronger than any immortal power could ever be.
This is the idea that would have been so cool for the finale but unfortunately never paid off. As the second coming prepares to destroy Earth again, Aziraphale and Crowley could have teamed up with the power of humanity to reshape heaven and hell for good. Adam and Jesus as the Antichrist and Christ born to end the world and instead used their humanity to save it. Instead we got the book-of-life arc and humans were literally left to dust
Theme 2: Free Will
Good omens establishes that angels and demons are just puppets but humans are the ones with real free will because they have the ability to be good or bad. Even with heaven and hell, the humans on Earth always have a choice. Aziraphale even describes free will as the defining characteristic of humanity, as the crucial element that angels should exist to protect. In seasons 1+2, they agree on this, but Crowley's main grievance is the inequity of it all. Humans have free will but it still isn't fair.
God made angels and demons and humans but the humans never had to follow her 'plan.' Free will and the ability to recognize what is truly right outside the propaganda of good vs evil is what saves the world.
Humans always had free will, even if God was around to kill a bunch of them with floods or take their stuff to win bets or something. Creating a new universe without God wouldn't change that. They would still have free will, just less threats from above/below, I guess. Crowley just kind of assumes that without a God, humans will somehow have more free will than they do now, and that will somehow solve all of the problems they’ve encountered in humanity?? What Crowley's established character really should have wanted here was to fix the inequity inherent in human society. That's what is truly holding them back, not a lack of will. Removing God from the universe doesn't actually solve the root problem.
Theme 3: Our Own Side
This is something Crowley learned very early and spends the whole show trying to teach Aziraphale. That good must be separated from heaven and bad must be separated from hell.
Heaven can do some truly appalling horrors and demons, at least Crowley (and somewhat Beelzebub I guess) have the potential to be kind. 'Their own side' is one where they have the freedom of humanity, to do what is objectively right. Not of heaven or hell, but true morality. Aziraphale and Crowley sort of found their way there in the finale, but it was all rushed and Aziraphale never really turned his back on heaven, it sort of just became irrelevant when everything started disappearing. What a beautiful world they could have created together, not one of good or evil, but one that--for all its flaws--is kind.
Theme 4: Love Conquers All
What was it all for? Love. God implies Aziraphale and Crowley were made for each other because she liked to smile at the silliness of their love. The literal only constant in the entire universe. Their love for the world and each other saved it. I think the decision to turn Aziraphale and Crowley's queer love story into a tragedy was the biggest mistake of seasons 2/3. Forcing the soft and romantic comedy of good omens into a queer tragedy was the moment it all crashed and burned. Now everything is tainted leading up to the pain and destruction of it all and the whimsy and lightness is gone. There were moments of it, but it was all leading toward the end. And queer love deserves to not be a tragedy. We have far too much tragic queer love in our society. Yes we got the south downs, but Aziraphale and Crowley never got to experience that freedom. They finally came together just to instantly be destroyed. We deserve happy and fulfilling queer love that is sweet without the bitter parts. Good omens was intended to be a comedy, not a tragedy
And then this was SUCH A COOL IDEA they introduced. Perhaps the first time ever an angel and a demon performed a miracle together. The power of their love could create magic stronger than anything heaven or hell had ever seen. I was so excited to see the wonders they were going to create, they ways in which they could have rebuilt the world better using that love. If they had this kind of power doing a tiny miracle, what could they have accomplished if they really put their minds to it??? God herself couldn't have stopped them. And instead, the finale literally revoked Crowley's miracles for the entire episode. They sacrifice themselves for a new earth and people that didn’t even exist yet instead of using any of their power to change it. The god awful execution of this theme is probably the biggest letdown of the entire finale imo
Theme 5: Fix It, Don't Replace It
This is so obviously established in seasons 1/2 I cannot believe how badly they missed the mark with this one
Literally shows us the horror of replacing the Earth with all new people. Even children can recognize that just because something is broken, it doesn't mean you throw it away and start over. They loved the world enough to want to save it. The world is inherently worth saving, flaws and all. If you love something, you don't abandon it. The ENTIRE PLOT of season 1 explores the horrors of humanity and yet humans, Aziraphale and Crowley do everything in their power to save it.
It absolutely blows my mind how directly this scene contradicts the entire message of the finale. Job didn't want new children, he quite liked the old ones. Aziraphale and Crowley didn't want the antichrist's new Earth, they quite liked the old one. We didn't want new human versions of Aziraphale and Crowley, we QUITE LIKED THE OLD ONES. Where the hell did that mentality go when they told God to create an entirely new universe?????????? Season 1 said the world is flawed but it deserves saving exactly as it is. Season 1 said an angel and a demon go off to the ritz together, exactly as they are. The finale said the world is too broken, we have to make it disappear and start over. The finale said Aziraphale and Crowley have too many issues/traumas to be happy, we have to destroy them and start over. That's why as cute as Asa and Anthony's love is, we quite liked them exactly as they were, angel/demon trauma + history and all. They deserved saving too.
At the end of everything they’re giving up, we are simply left with asking: What is the "real world" the finale is trying to make us value? One without a god to screw things up sometimes??? All we see of this new world is Asa and Anthony finding each other. There's no evidence to show that humans are doing any better, there's any less pain or suffering, that humans have any more opportunities or free will than before. They seem to imply it's the exact same world, just without God or angels or demons. Then what was the actual point of destroying the original one??? If the real problem was God, they should've just destroyed God and left the world alone. I guess they didn't have enough time to really explore it. But they're hinging everything on the new universe being better but then do next to nothing to support that idea.
IN CONCLUSION: Good omens has always been so special to me for how much it pokes fun at but also celebrates the messiness and wonder of humanity and love. The 6-to-1 episodes was a major setback but somehow the finale still managed to drop basically every one of its most endearing and powerful messages. It's very clear good omens as a whole was always meant to be a one-season/one-book story. There was so much potential and missed opportunities and I wish we could have had the finale we dreamt of. I will always love the world of good omens season 1/the book, so that is the world I'll keep in my heart. And all the nightingales therein
I agree with a lot of these points, even with my opinion being set pretty solidly in a neutral to even positive opinion of the finale. It’s such a shame everything was cut short, but I do think there time we had could have been managed better. There were certainly parts I liked and parts I didn’t like and I need to do a proper rewatch to gather my thoughts more
One thing about the “we don’t want a new world” point is that the entire world was already gone (save for the bookshop and for some reason Az and Crowley — where are their pages?? Bit much on the plot armor, but oh right, they still die anyway). This brings up the point of, is a person really the same if they’re artificially recreated exactly the same as they were before they ceased to exist? If the old world was remade, everyone would be clones of those that existed before, but would they really be the same people?
I feel like Adam resetting the world in S1 was different: The world still existed, the people who died didn’t get completely erased. But a reset of the world from nothing? I’m not sure.
IM ALIVE SUCKS-YES! Delia (Bailey Frankenberg) and Charles (Jeff Brooks)!!
This piece has been killing my for like a month omg but it’s finally done!! there’s 21 hours on this canvas when most of my drawings take around 10. the colors are fun but so annoying at the same time aaahhh
i love all the patterns and stuff in beetlejuice, but i also hate them bc they’re so annoying to draw. if Delia’s dress pattern is weird, no it’s not. shhhh
next week i’ll being seeing beetlejuice the musical live and i can’t wait!! i hope they have stage door so i can give the actors the drawings i’ve done! AAHHH i’m so excited, i’m bringing my giant crocheted sand worm and dressing up too
42 hours and 45 minutes of blood, sweat and a LOT of tears went into this… my wrist hurts.
Good Omens is over. Season 3 broke me (I’m still undecided if I loved it or hated it). But this scene absolutely destroyed me, I loved it.
Anyway, hi x
the angel staying over at my house asked for a nightlight in their room and i told them buddy, don't you produce your own light? what're you gonna do with more? and they said they wanted to see why people like it so much. and also that the nightlight i own is blue and they're been trying to understand color. anyways i think they've stared at it for an hour now
the angel staying over at my house said their eyes hurt from staring, so i took them to the store to get some eye drops. well midway through the medicine aisle i turned around to see them flashing in and out of colors like a combusting star, so i asked them what was up without looking directly at them. they told me that there were too many people at the store and they forgot how they looked. which. is understandable to be honest they've only been on earth for a little over 24 hours. my phone started to melt a little when i showed them pictures of themself, but my hand feels fine even though they held it while calming down. they're currently resting and i am not sure what to do with 5 empty bottles of eye drops
the angel staying over at my house has been eating my food for the past few days and i don't really know if they can taste it because the food sort of bursts into ash and fire before it reaches their mouth? but they seem to enjoy eating it or at least watching me cook. they tried to help me fry some onions earlier but the stove flame turned from blue to white and the onions started crackling instead of sizzling so they backed off. however they have the ability to chop garlic like a pro
the angel staying over at my house is taking daily walks with me around the neighborhood and i don't think they know about animals yet. we were going past someone's house and this labrador started barking at us. normal, right? but the angel staying over at my house asked me if that was music. and i had to stop and think about that one for a second. in the end i said it can be music to us, it's just that the dog doesn't know it (and may never know it, which is a real tragedy). then they asked me what's a dog
the angel staying over at my house went to the library with me and they wanted to know if humans actually dream or if that was something people made up for television. guess what the staff told us that the full name of the angel staying over at my house couldn't be printed on a library card so i just said well couldn't we have one anyways? and now we do but it's really like the first third of their name and not written correctly. oh well. i have to go help carry some huge books about neuroscience into the house
today the angel staying over at my house came up to me and started crying tears that melted through my carpet. told me they realised they wouldn't be able to use their library card after they left earth and i. i honestly forgot that was going to happen. but i told them hey dude that's just how humans feel too. can't read all the books, but the fact that you got to read some is worth bragging about, right? they could tell all of their angel friends about the cool stuff they've done. and they said that they used to think that the world was so small and that humans were being petty about missing earth but now they live here and they feel small too. and they're not sure what to tell their angel friends.
so i asked to hold their hand again. they didn't burn me this time, either. and i asked them if this moment felt small to them. they said it didn't.
anyways we made popcorn and watched it's a wonderful life. they told me that angels don't speak like that at all by the way
I tried to illustrate the second part
i watched the Good Omens finale and liked it, but i see some complaints about the decision Crowley and Aziraphale made so here are my “who-tf-are-you” thoughts about it.
People are agitated that the universe hit a hard reset. That it went against the wish to keep the original children, but I think they’re kind of overlooking the fact that there WAS no original anymore. The Book of Life was GONE, and along with it the reality that they knew. There was no rewind button. Sure, God could have created an exact copy of the universe that was lost, but that’s all it would be. A copy. The fellow angels, the demons, the humans, would all be copies of their original selves and probably wouldn’t remember everything that occurred. Everyone except Satan, God, Crowley and Aziraphale. That’s no way for either of them to live and I don’t think they wanted that for themselves or for the others. To be erased from existence only to be brought back as versions made to, really, appease the two of them and their wish should they have made it. No, they wanted things to unfold without a path. Without someone telling us what’s going to happen every second of every day. Even if that meant they had to find each other again. I think that with that final look they gave each other, they knew that they would. Naturally. The human way. In every universe, including the one we saw.
so, I’ve had a think about Good Omens 3 and my opinion on it. I’m certain it’s still open to changing, especially once I get time to rewatch it, but I do have some things I’d like to share.
But of course, please do be courteous if you don’t agree with my opinion
No matter what we saw today, this scene exists.
Trust me, I'm one of the elevator buttons. I was there 🧍
