Hey:) just wondering if you've already seen the video/transcript of DT talking about Crowley vs human Anthony ( https://www.reddit.com/r/goodomens/s/0AZX1SKnOo )

Not that an actor's interpretation is necessarily more important or valid than any fan's reading. But I'd love to hear what your thoughts are on this clip:)

thank you for sending me this!

ok i’m only going to share the part of the quote that i did see the video of (which apparently the fan asked not to share further anymore), not the transcript on that reddit post of a whole conversation translated from chinese which was a combination of two fan interactions, with a further unconfirmed part

my thoughts are: this snippet of a fan interaction doesn’t reflect david tennant’s (whole) opinion on the finale, and also he is just the vessel, like he’s just the actor, and though i am interested in his opinion it’s also just an opinion

but yeah it appears he does support my (and many people’s) reading that good omens 3 killed off crowley and aziraphale, and asa and anthony are just Wearing Their Faces

my reaction is to take up digital smoking 🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬

How I feel about the Asa Fell & Anthony Crowley ending.

First off, I do find Asa and Anthony to be cute and I love that they found each other and are in love, happy married at their little cottage gazing at the stars......but they are not Aziraphale and Crowley to me. They have no memories of being Aziraphale and Crowley and they aren't able to appreciate what they once had and the journey and struggles they faced in order to become Asa and Anthony. Their love and the way they express it if different, their backgrounds are different, the obstacles they faced in life are different. Everything, besides some similarities in looks and interests, is completely different.

They maybe have the same souls as Aziraphale and Crowley but memories and life experiences are what make you who you are. They may seem familiar but they are complete strangers that we have to start from the beginning to build a connection with.

Aziraphale and Crowley are not aware of Asa and Anthony either. God made sure to point that out before she thanos snapped them and their universe into non-existence. They will not get to experience true freedom of being together and happy. That was taken from them and given to another pair who will also never know or experience what they once had together in another life.

We built this huge strong connection with two characters who's bond was created over thousands of years together, hoping they would get their happy ending together as who they were currently.....and Instead they had to die and give up their happiness for a completely new universe with versions of themselves they don't and will never know of.

And somehow we are expected to take that connection and love we had for two beings that meant so much to us as who they already were....and give it to completely different strangers? It feels like a betrayal in a way...

Secondly,

I truly hate the idea of Aziraphale or Crowley getting cancer, arthritis, or getting so old they can't walk and enjoy or do all things they love in life. I don't enjoy the thought of one of them getting more frail while the other has to watch helplessly, or that one will die first and the other has to grieve for them...and possibly die alone.. and because there's no Heaven..that's just It for them...

They deserved eternity together. They deserved 6000+ more years of being in love to make up for all they couldn't have before. They deserved being happy in each other's company, while watching the Earth and the humanity they love and cared for throughout the centuries continue on, enjoying all the little quirks and joys along the way.

Aziraphale deserved to keep his little bookshop with all his favorite things inside, making friends with the neighbors and forgiving their rent just for a nice plate of cookies or a good record to play. He deserved to be where he was appreciated, loved, and accepted with no judgement

Crowley deserved to keep his Bentley and move into the bookshop and decorate it with all his plants because we know Aziraphale would let him. He deserved to be with his Angel out on lunches, dinners, and have nightly wine conversations and maybe take the Bentley out into the stars to visit the ones he made. He deserved to live with freedom in his curiosity of the universe, be free to ask any questions or make choices without judgement. He deserved to live where he was seen as good even with flaws, he deserved to be happy and in love with the one person who gave all of that to him from the very beginning.

After everything they had been through, they deserved more. They deserved to be the universe and humanity's Guardians, our hope and our proof that there is good in this life and beyond. They deserved to be each other's hope and happiness.

They deserved forever..

But instead they got an end. An end to their current existence with all its flaws, perfections and precious memories that shaped them. An end to their universe they built and helped grow. And then in all its place is a replacement all shiny and new and unfamiliar. Their life is replaced with two others who may share their souls but have no memory or connection to who they were before. No memory of all the journey and struggles or even the joys that got them where they were. No memory of them and what they once had

Instead they were given a life so fleeting that once it's done..it will be buried within time and be forgotten by all but the ONE being who had the power to give them what they truly wanted and deserved but didn't allow it. And they did it all by manipulating the situation and circumstances to make the two think the choice they made of Their End was of their own free will..

There was only one winner in the end...and it wasn't them.

Their story mattered more than being soulmates in other universe and time. Their connection was way beyond any "I will always find you in every lifetime" romance trope. Their story was the eternal flame. It deserved more than mortality.

Their love for themselves and for humanity they took care of deserved to be Eternal.

But instead it's Evanescence and Ephemerality.

They deserved so much more than what they got.

Season 1:

Adam: but I'm just a kid...

Aziraphale: but that's not a bad thing to be, Adam. You know, I was scared that you'd be hell incarnate, I hoped you to be heaven incarnate. But you're not either of those things. You're much better. You're human incarnate.

Crowley: Adam, reality will listen to you right now, you can change things.

Aziraphale: and whatever happens, for good or for evil, we are beside you.

For me, the meaning is this: we, humans, from the smallest to the greatest, are capable of changing the world. We can refuse to be what others tell us we are. We can choose our own path. It doesn’t matter whether we are children or adults — everything is in our hands. Our destiny, and therefore the destiny of the world, is in our hands. What we are born as does not define us.

Unfortunately, I don’t know how this line originally looked in English, but in the Russian translation of the book there is a sentence like this:

“It’s just like expecting a tailless mouse to give birth to a tailless baby mouse.”

That is the essence of Good Omens. Those who think they mean nothing and have no influence are deeply mistaken. Every person matters; every voice matters. What we are born as does not determine who we truly are.

The Antichrist, whose purpose at birth was to destroy the planet, humanity, and claim his throne, is an ordinary eleven-year-old boy who rejects his predetermined role because he sees no point in ruling or power, he simply doesn’t need it. All he wants is to enjoy life on Earth, to enjoy playing with his friends, the small earthly joys, imagination, his imperfect but loving and loved parents, to go to school, to play with his dog in the garden, to steal apples from the neighbor’s tree, to grow up and love, to love, and love again this imperfect world.

We can change the world. We can do it by starting with ourselves, by refusing to accept what we are told we are by definition, by default. And it doesn’t matter whether it’s for good or for evil, our Aziraphale and Crowley, faithful (shitty, but still lol) protectors of Earth, humanity, and the small earthly pleasures that we created and that they came to love just as much as they love humanity itself, will always be with us, believing in us.

[shockandbawww]

I’ve been reading the discourse about whether or not the ending of GO3 was something Terry Pratchett would have penned, or if it rings more of a revenge plot from a narcissistic abuser who greatly exaggerated how close he was to Pratchett to begin with. I’m just starting to read Discworld and I don’t have a lot of evidence yet, but had a thought.

The idea of Crowley and Aziraphale loving the world, loving humanity so much that they are willing to sacrifice themselves to save it all feels very much like an idea put forth by Pratchett, in line with values that say people, no matter how flawed, are worth saving. It’s always worthwhile to fix things that are broken, even if it’s hard, even if it hurts.

The idea that an ambivalent God (who is also a Black woman) would allow it to happen and destroy everything that our ineffables loved, without them ever even existing, feels like manipulative prose meant to be a desperate parting shot before NG fades into obscurity. A way to deeply hurt fans while claiming it was “the only way”, ignoring the messages of Job and his children, of the entirety of the story thus far.

I have very mixed feelings about the finale, and find myself more and more just… not accepting it as canon. Or at least not all of it - give me an angel and a demon ready to be destroyed just to give humanity a chance at free will, and at the last second Terry comes up with a bureaucratic loophole that fixes what’s there already, no sacrifice needed, “can you imagine if we had been at all competent?” ending that is kind and hopeful and just as powerful.

With Crowley and Aziraphale retiring in the South Downs, instead of Anthony and Asa (even though I do enjoy a romantic “I’ll find you in any universe” trope and I’ll never hate these two adorable husbands). It feels more and more like a bone thrown to fans instead of a true happy ending. At least to me.

I dunno. Whatever you feel or think is valid and I’m not here to change minds or insist what I think is more correct than other folks’ opinions. It was only a thought.

I’ll just be over here reading my hopepunk fix-it fics and wishing desperately we still had Terry with us today.

if writers have to "invent" answers to questions about a plot and script they worked on after the show has aired...that tells me a lot..

Good writers shouldn't have to invent answers after the the fact in order to explain writing choices

Am I making any sense here?

Like I get that once a script hits the production floor, a writer can't fully stop a director or editor choosing to tweak or cut scenes, but come on...and if the reason the answer isn't clear in the final show because it was cut for time...then that implies bad editing and bad writing tbh.

[rosetherat]

[cruelfeline]

It's honestly kind of funny because I really, really thought I'd be devastated by GO3. But upon watching it, I found it so bizarre and disconnected from the book and S1 that my brain simply didn't assimilate it as canonical information. Which is nuts because I'm typically very beholden to canon.

But GO3 read as such a strange non-sequitor that it couldn't emotionally hurt me. That's how weird of a finale it was and how poorly it maintained the themes of the original.
