Good omens season 3 opinion + unintentional rewrite.
I may be controversial to say but I loved the ending! Everything with how Joseph(Jesus) went looking for "The Lady" because of drunk Crowley was hilarious and perfectly in character of the show, the missing book of life was a surprise for sure and definitely took over the plot from Joseph but didn't mind much. The talk at Crowley's attempt at a "date" just to be interrupted by several people was wonderful.
Overall It fits good omens perfectly and Im sad we couldn't see it in a episode style like we saw in season 2, but glad we at least got to see the ending in a more - guess bittersweet way.
Though genuinely surprised Aziraphale and Crowley didn't share more romantic moments when in the bookshop, when it was just them. And odd to see Satan there with not much add on. But, Im mostly surprised is the fact the conversation the angel and demon had after being given privacy, it felt... out of place? Like there was more dialog for it but they couldn't fit it in, Crowley answering a question that Aziraphale never asked before he asked another one. Guess it's mostly because its only 90 minutes which is fair, but still sat funny to me.
I didn't mind the whole "new universe, no god, no satan, no heaven nor hell, just humans and the universe" thing, It was quite cool to see how it would go, and kinda fun to think that we sorta living in a world like that ourselves (depends on beliefs of course). Just really would've loved if Anthony J Crowley and Asa Fell recognised each other at the bookshop, like a sort of familiarity they felt about each other.
(This next part is quite fanfic-y but this is what I thought could've happened during the last 10 minutes - so a sorta rewriting you could say):
Anthony Crowley staring at the bookshop, a feeling of bittersweet nostalgia filling his body with blurry memories he cannot place his finger on, hesitating to enter for reasons he doesn't know. His golden eyes widen, as he stands directly across the room from a platinum blonde man, a voice that shimmers across his mind, one he has thousands of memories with.
Of course he was noticed back, with Mr. Crowleys presence brought a bell ring from the door, and usually Asa Fell would bring a kind welcome to any guest/customer that enters the bookshop, but this time, he didn't.
Asa Fell and Anthony J Crowley lock eyes, what felt to be a millennia, or perhaps even a few thousand years, maybe 6 thousand to be exact? Almost as if they were...
"...Crowley? - Is that... really you?"
Remembering.
"Angel!-"
Asa Fell - No - Aziraphale clumsily runs, almost tackling Crowley with a hug, a strong painful embrace. The sun delicately lighting their faces as they depart and stare at one another, Crowleys hands hovering over his angel's waist, oh how he missed his angel.
(In the background of this scene plays a gentle loving orchestra as the lovers reunite)
"Angel..." Crowley glances down, his sunglasses hiding his tears, "I-"
A warm pair of wrinkly hands delicately placed upon Crowley's cheeks, wiping away the fallen tears the former demon shed.
"Im sorry, Crowley"
The angel removed the gap of air between the two, giving Crowley the kiss he once gave in another world, one that didn't exist anymore. But, that didn't matter now, they're here, humanity is safe and they're together. Crowley rested his hands on Aziraphale's body and just eases in. Finally, he thought, an Us.
It took a moment before Derek - former Metatron interfered "Wrong bookshop!" making the two separate from their moment. Crowley glares at him
"Oh Crowley, It's okay he's not... you know, anymore." The Angel - or guess Former Angel smiles at his counterpart with the same kindness and forgiveness he always had in his eyes, Crowley never understood it, but at least he knows for sure this wasn't another Gabriel situation -
"You look awfully familiar, do I know you from somewhere?"
The Former Angel and Former Demon share glances to one another, processing the words that 'Derek' had just spoken, silent awkward panic sits in the air.
"I... uhm, the one who made Astrophysics for Everyone book? Maybe thats where you found me familiar-."
"Oh, But I swear I seen you before -"
"Oh no no no" Aziraphale Intervenes, "You must've recognise good ol' Anthony J Crowley for the - what I may say Marvellous astrophysics and book writing he has done, he is quite recognisable with how he goes around you know"
"I dont 'go around' places angel- " His Angel immediately pushes gently him outside before he finished speaking, saying to 'Derek' "We must be heading off now, you know how I'm like with meeting authors, ta-ta!"
The bell rings as the bookshop door closes, leaving Derek sitting in a quiet bookshop on his own. Mumbling of an excited 'Asa Fell' and semi-grumpy Professor Anthony J Crowley outside the walls as Derek shrugs off the unnatural interaction he had, unintentionally giving the two a blessing by leaving them alone, like one final miracle a angel and demon could make before living life as the not-exactly good nor evil creatures known as Humans.
The final scene being a slow zoom away from the lovely bookshop with the two lovers walking beside it in deep conversation, getting blurrier as we focus on another creature, one that a angel and demon know very well.
A nightingale, sitting on a streetlamp, ruffling its feathers before singing its final tune.
It was a nice day.
