It was a bit disappointing because the original Good Omens is a beloved classic in our house (as well as the book), and this was nowhere as good. I was still happy to watch, just because I love seeing fun characters return, like Sheen and Tennant and Hamm.

--- spoiler alert --

I have no issue with the new plot of the missing archangel. John Hamm plays it well. I have no issue with the main lesbian romantic relationship. But I DO have issue with the writers sexualizing the relationship between Aziraphale and Crowley at the end. Not every loving friendship needs to be sexual, especially one between an angel and a fallen angel!!! Ugh. So irritating.

NP. Everything could have been the same without the kiss and it would have been so much more powerful. The kiss didn't make sense. It's not consistent with the character and was too much for the moment. It broke the wonderful tension between them. The kiss actually reduced their relationship for me. I mean, I cannot fathom such an enduring and marvelous relationship over millions of years. Mind already blown. They do a good job of adding the weight of time to their friendship and couple that with the ever-present complication of the Angel/Demon connection. When he kissed him, I just said, "Why?" A complete distraction.

This was the feeling in our household, too. Disappointing ending. [/quote]
