Two things can be true at once; the finale can be rushed and good at the same time. I don’t think anyone would complain about Asa and Anthony at the end if we had had at least three episodes.

Michael’s insanity felt sudden (not unexpected just SUDDEN) which made her takedown less substantial, the arc would have benefited from a season of build up, especially since I think the concept was cooler than seasons 1 and 2’s.

If Aziraphale and Crowley had more time, I really think no one would hate the ending as much as they did. Giving themselves up for humanity makes sense and fits who the two of them are, it just doesn’t FEEL that way because everything in the finale happened sooooo fast.

All of this is coming from someone who looooves the finale, but I wish we had a real season.

How very depressing that Neil Gaiman had trended not even a tiny bit for demonstrating what a fucking horrific person he is.

As a reminder, he's suing Caroline Wallner, one of his accusers, for breaking her NDA. Not for libel. He's saying she shouldn't have told anyone about it, not that she lied.

Neil Gaiman Seeks $500,000 From Accuser Caroline Wallner

The author says Wallner broke her NDA by sharing her story with the media, including with New York Magazine.

He doesn't need the money. He's risking the Streisand effect. He is punishing Caroline, he's trying to intimidate other victims who have signed NDAs to scare them into continued silence.

He is no friend to women, to the LGBTQIA+ community, to anyone quite frankly unless he thinks they are of value to him.

Share the story. Put it on Facebook and bluesky and whatever else you're on. Make it clear what a horrifying person he is. Tell your friends. He's paying Edendale a fortune to try and cover this up. Make this hard for him. Make it cost him money.

Okay yeah, the ending wasn't what we wanted

Is Azi and Crowley destroying the entire universe, the very think they FOUGHT tooth and nail to prevent multiple times SUPPER out of character? YES! Is a lack of direct kiss between these two beings who have fought tooth and nail for each other incredibly disappointing? YES! Do I still feel satisfied with the ending? Yes!

I went into the movie with the notion that it wasn't going to feel the same, wasn't going to be perfect, or even what the characters fully deserved. Because it wasn't Neil's writing. But it happened at all. Crowley and Aziraphale found each other again, as they always will, because they were made for each other. The show ended, as it started, with a garden. The hundreds of fanfictions I read with them ending as humans in the South Downs got it half right. Those characters, while not Azi and Crow as we've known them, are still, at heart, the same beings. Crowley still loves (and can now SEE) the stars. Aziraphale is still working under the Metatron, still with his books, still with his old fashioned lingo and awkward socialization. If you went into the finale with the notion that it was going to feel the same, you've doomed yourself.

Neil would have done it differently, we know that. He listened to the fans, he talked with us, worked with us, understood what his audience wanted. But what we got was still beautiful. The ineffable husbands still loved each other beyond comprehension. They chose each other and then humanity, the most important things to each of them. Could they have just had God recreate the world without Heaven, Hell, and themselves as Angel and Demon? Sure! And maybe Neil would have written that. But the writers who worked on the project didn't, and that's okay. They got their happy ending. In every universe.

And Neil didn't deserve to be on the project so we have to love this ending, if nothing else, than to spite him
