    The "I forgive you" was painful as hell, but Aziraphale's "Oh Crowley...nothing lasts forever" regarding the bookshop sent actual chills down my spine, the way he says it like...wtf who are you and what have you done to Aziraphale???

      @@lieutenantdan1503I actually think it was meant as a sacrifice? Like nothing lasts forever but he’ll be willing to give up on all the meaningful things he enjoys in earth for spending eternity with Crowley, in a safe space. Also, I think that the point of the scenes with pre Fall Crowley and Aziraphale were to make us see Crowley through Azi’s eyes: he was happy and enthusiastic and did not suffer, and Aziraphale wants to give Crowley a second chance at experiencing that kind of purity again, because he felt that Crowley did not deserve to fall for only asking questions. At least that’s my take on it

    I got spoiled on the kiss a month prior, spent the entire month keeping my mouth shut to my entire family. I was prepared for an ocean of happy tears, but as I was watching and it became clear what was happening, all I could do was stare at my screen with my mouth open in horror, begging for it not to end like that. I KEPT MY MOUTH SHUT FOR THAT??!!! I do not care if I have to burn out my computer doing it, I will watch the show on repeat until we get that Season 3.
    Metatron literally made Aziraphale into the next Jesus: making him sacrifice his life on Earth to supposedly protect the world, turning Crowley from the demon who kissed his angel out of love and desperation to make him stay, to Judas the betrayer who kissed his friend to sell him out to his enemies.

      Im grateful and glad you and everyone else who got spoiled kept your mouths shut, cause even though experiencing it this way around must have sucked for you, it was fucking beautiful to experience for someone who had not been spoiled. Cause if youre a queer fandom veteran and you don't know that that is coming at all, you don't care much that the context is sad. Shows are sad all the time. There's conflict and parting and pain all the time, but never with the fckn blessing of the ship becoming Canon. I felt so seen by this reaction video for that reason. It genuinely feels healing. Catholic school etc. I refer to the season as Religious Trauma 2. Im so unbelievably sorry for you and everyone who was expecting to celebrate and then must have felt so hurt and betrayed. But sincerely Thank You for enabling me and others to have the experience we were all supposed to have.

    I don't want to jinx it but I think it's highly likely Amazon will renew it:
    1. The set is still up in the studio in Bathgate
    2. Amazon *heavily* promoted S2
    3. It's #1 in many countries, including the UK. I think it was #2 in the US last I heard
    4. Largely positive reception from critics
    5. Amazon has also opened a merch store for Good Omens
    Obviously, the strikes put a spanner in the works. The good news is Neil has already written a couple episodes and the last 15ish minutes of S3. As soon as the strikes are resolved, he'll be back to writing for it. He said if they start filming early 2024 then it should be ready by 2026.

    I'm still ... quaking after this finale.
    I knew nothing about the kiss and had no reason to expect it. As you and I and the rest of us have said, I've been burned too many times. I can't remember the last time I was so shocked by a ship(s) becoming canon. And why like that?! It broke my heart 💔Yet narratively, it makes too much sense. The backslide started the moment Metatron showed up and when Nina & Maggie had the sit down with Crowley about him and Az *not talking to each other!*
    They haven't been. Yes, they're ineffable husbands who undeniably love each other but they haven't actually *talked* about anything beneath the surface. Az was surprised (& moved) when Crowley admitted Az was his best friend in S1. They know each other and yet they don't.
    S2 established this and that they don't *anything* about the nuances of romantic love. The whole "get Maggie & Nina together" is proof. Crowley thinks it'll be easy, "just a big kiss and boom, it's done." and Az thinks all they need is a fancy party and dancing. They both think love's straightforward, just hit the common checkpoints and boom, two people are in love. And then ... they realize just how wrong they are.
    S2 deserves a better deconstruction - the dialogue choices, Az/Crow & Maggie/Nina parallels, the significance of Crowley w/ sunglasses vs Crowley w/out sunglasses, *the FINALE* - than I'm mentally and emotionally prepared to do at the moment. So I'll leave that to someone else while I just .....😵‍💫

    The thing that Aziraphale doesn't get, that Crowley understands all too well, is that Heaven and Hell are only aesthetically different. Offering to Return Crowley to "Full Angelic Status" proves it. Because if they can just _Do That_ WITHOUT GOD being involved? Then why did he Fall in the first place and what is the true difference between him now and him Restored to being an Angel? How can they just _Decide_ he's not a demon anymore? It's certainly not because of his good deeds and kind heart because he hides those and Heaven wouldn't give a shit anyway. So why, other than to persuade Aziraphale, would he be granted this?
    And that's exactly the point, Crowley knows who he is and what he's about, and Aziraphale doesn't. Aziraphale still believes that Heaven is GOOD and Hell is BAD and sure, Heaven has hurt him and has made mistakes, but they're still, deep down, the Good guys. (And therefore Crowley deserves to come "Home" because he is GOOD and finally he can be what he was always meant to be, an Angel. And now they can live happily ever after, just as God surely intended, etc.) Crowley knows better because the good guys don't arbitrarily punish people just for asking questions.

    • @jamiedodger2361
      @jamiedodger2361 Рік тому +36

      Also, while Crowley saw Gabriel and Beelzebub going off as proof that he and Aziraphale can be together, Aziraphale saw it as proof that Heaven can be fixed. Because if GABRIEL can change and become nicer, then surely other important people in Heaven can change too if given the chance.
      But Aziraphale fails to recognise that Gabriel only changed because he went OUTSIDE the system. Because he operated outside of Heaven's parameters. Furthermore, his relationship with Beelzebub is further proof of Heaven and Hell's similarities. The two of them were experiencing the same stress, problems, and just wanted their lives to be easier. It's like Neil said: Heaven is the penthouse and Hell is the basement, but they're both in the same goddamm building.

They might even unfuck this whole situation with the homicidal abrahamic god along the way. They are just so *so* bad at communicating! And what could be more human than that?

    I understand that a lot of people were left distraught after this finale, but I just... wasn't. Not because I was not emotionally affected by the series, far from it, but because I see the hope in this.
    Aziraphael and Crowley were not speaking honestly to each other. And becuase of this were unaware that they weren't on the exact same page. And they needed to be made aware of this, in order to be able to move to that better place.
    And the parallel to Maggie and Nina says pretty outright, that just because they aren't in the right place now to be together (and they aren't), it doesn't mean that at some point in the future they won't get there. Maggie's sidenote that she won't be moving on from Nina gives further hope that all is not lost.

      I'm commenting this everywhere and my comments keep getting removed, but here we go again: I actually think ineffectualdemon and Ariaste hit the nail on the head with their analyses. 1. Aziraphale is a liar who has been shown lying a lot (especially to Crowley so that he can feel strong saving him; the bumbly bookshop persona is an act) and being secretly a bada$$ (carved out gun compartment in his book). 2. Neil Gaiman has been tricking and misleading us very carefully with this weird season that is actually meticulously planned chaos. I highly suggest looking up the analyses ♡ Ariaste's essay "The magic trick you did not see" and ineffectualdemon's much shorter post "Aziraphale is a lying liar who lies"

    The Good Omens fandom's major crossovers in fanbase can be seen on the fandom tags of Ao3
    **Supernatural, Lucifer (haven't watched), Harry Potter, Sherlock, Doctor Who, Merlin and the MCU**
    These shows have 3 things in common.
    *1) They are not love stories, and are based on some sort of fantasy or unrealistic element*
    *2) They have incredibly popular queer ships which never come to fruition*
    *3) Many have implications of queer relationships, and end up chalking it down to 'best buddies' (Johnlock, Wolfstar, Destiel kinda since they killed him off instantly)*
    People in the Good Omens fandom are used to seeing queer-coded 'soulmates', who are then revealed to be entirely 'straight'
    They are used to writers making fun of the ship, fanfiction and fans themselves (cough* cough* Sherlock).
    To see a ship, in a TV show format notorious for queerbaiting (since, with shows like Young Royals and Heartstopper, we are aware the love story is the main and often sole focus of the narrative, these shows also establish this canon earlier than the fans can ship them), is nothing short of a miracle.
    I think Our Flag Means Death really started this deviation- but even then it was less surprising. Good Omens s1 was not a show that contained an abundance of queer relationships and characters.
    That's why this development, this canon, is so very shocking to fans.
    We've been here before; seen a similar relationship.
    We've just never seen the leap.
    Edit cause I'm getting a lot of similar comments: For this, I just looked at the top most crossover-ed fandoms on Ao3 for Good Omens. I haven't watched much of Doctor Who myself, same with Lucifer. So I apologise if I've placed misinformation regarding these specific shows.

    I don't know if you've ever watched Staged, but the ending sequence with the split-screen between Crowley and Aziraphale is eerily reflective of the ending of Staged 3. I don't think it was a coincidence and maybe Staged was foreshadowing what would happen in Good Omens...
    To be honest, Staged left me more heartbroken than Good Omens on first watch because I wasn't expecting the Staged ending, while I had time to brace myself for where Good Omens was heading (the pain instead grows with each rewatch). I'm still trusting Neil to give us a happy final end in the next part, whatever format it takes.
    Now, personal opinion/rant time: I didn't see the kiss itself as romantic. At least, not wholly, or in a typical sense.
    What I mean is, their entire relationship goes beyond human ideas of romance; it's different and/or more than that, so I don't expect them to express it in human ways. (That's not to say that I'm upset by the kiss, because I'm not, but I think their love story was already validated, whether or not the kiss took place.)
    Crowley's intention with the kiss felt more like a last ditch effort to get through to Aziraphale the weight of his decision. In that moment, Crowley knew that he and Aziraphale were at an impasse; that Aziraphale was being too naively hopeful of what change he could actually make to the system. Nor was Aziraphale listening to what Crowley wanted: to give their relationship clarity and have their own "Gabriel and Beelzebub Ending".
    Despite the obviousness of their love, there has always been a line. As long as they never confronted that line, never gave clarity, they could continue on as they were. Aziraphale is always the one reminding Crowley of that line and I think it comes down to him never fully accepting that Crowley is a demon; that he, Aziraphale, loves a demon. He accepts and is happy for Gabriel and Beelzebub of course, because they are other people, but it's a different matter when it comes to himself. (This is supported by him being gleeful at the thought of giving Crowley back his angelic status, even when everyone and God themself know that Crowley would never want it back.)
    When Crowley realizes he's already lost Aziraphale, he decides to cross that line, in a very "human" way, in a final attempt to make Aziraphale understand him and what they're losing.
    Of course, they're not human, but humanity has become one of the pillars of their existence together. They enjoy being on Earth and have fought very hard to keep it, so a kiss, which is a very human thing to do, is the perfect symbol for Crowley to show Aziraphale that he's being an idiot for wanting to give up everything they've built together, while on Earth.
    The kiss itself is not pretty and I don't think it's meant to be. Crowley tightly grasps Aziraphale by his lapels and pulls them together, more so just holding him in place, mouths together, rather than engaging in the kiss. He doesn't want to let him go because it may be the only time and the only way that Aziraphale will understand; using a "human" gesture gives the clarity needed in that moment because humanity is a bridge between them, not neccessarily because it's how they would express intimacy.
    Crowley saying "You idiot. We could have been, Us." is a perfect way to describe their relationship because it goes beyond words, beyond action. However, since Aziraphale was playing dumb (or maybe being genuinely stupid), Crowley decided to dumb it down for him into a simpler action.
    The entire scene beginning with Crowley's confession (for which David deserves an award) and ending with Aziraphale's reaction/rejection (which is a separate rant because there's so many things going on there, but give Michael an award too), is just so much more than human romance.
    It takes more space, has more weight, shows more time...
    It's ineffably them and it's ineffably painful.
    Rant over.

    The way this season ends is the perfect emotional cliffhanger for the middle part of a trilogy. Aziraphale going to heaven is its Han Solo in carbonite. The narrative demands the third part, and I believe it will happen barring devastating unforeseen disasters. No way will Amazon not want it. It's very popular and not even that high budget compared to things like Rings of Power and the Wheel of Time.

Oh my gosh that promo poster finally makes so much sense because if you look at it, Gabriel’s mug is the one with a heart coming out. Then aziraphale’s has a question mark and Crowley’s wine glass has half a mark . Ahhhhhh the ending was in the poster , there were so many clues . Unbelievable.

      My idea is that the Ineffable Plan is SUPPOSED to include both sides learning to embrace Shades of Grey rather than how they are now, with their polar extremes. I think the point of this season is to show the audience that Heaven's extreme is just as harmful as that of Hell.
      I also suspect part of the Plan is for angels and demons (and angels and angels, and demons and demons) to eventually pair up (or group up, not to exclude Poly people) and by learning how to Love, they are finally following the REAL Plan.

    A lot of people say that in the last scene Aziraphael behaves in a way the real Aziraphael would never do, it's so unlike him, that maybe Metatron did something to him, he would never do that to Crowley. But I think it's right up his street. Naive Aziraphael is still believing that the world is divided into black and white, good guys and the bad ones, and that when he will be in charge in Heaven he can change the world for the better place(can you even imagine that? I'd like to see how he's gonna do it when God will say to him to do otherwise and destroy the Earth), because he still can't accept his dark side, even though Crowley has spent 6000 years trying to convince him that everything is not so simple and life is made up of many shades of gray. You can't be just good or just bad. But it didn't work.
    And Crowley is the only one who understands himself, what he is and what he wants and for him it's him and his important and only person in the universe to be together on their own side. And Aziraphael, let's face it, has always been a bit self-centered, and Crowley puts Aziraphael and his desires first and we see that in the scenes like magic trick moment, the keys to the Bentley, that's the first things that comes to mind. And here theoretically he could give in one more time, only Crowley realized that it was the last straw. He'd lost him in a way like "I can't meet you in the middle if you don't take two steps towards me, I won't fight for us if you just give up everything we've spent so long building up like this»

      Yeah, and HE DOESN'T KNOW a lot of the stuff that Crowley knows. I mean, yes, he should know enough, in a way, which is why Crowley can't get his poor flustered brain in gear to realize what arguments would ACTUALLY stop him going.
      But Crowley has been trying to protect him, so that Aziraphale doesn't turn as cynical as he is. So he never said that Gabriel told "Aziraphale" to shut his mouth and die, or exactly what minor question got Crowley in trouble in the first place (let alone what it probably FEELS like to Fall), or that the Metatron was totally willing to approve Gabriel's demotion for trying to block Armageddon 2.0...
      Heaven here is Nina's gaslighting ex...and Aziraphale is still falling for it.

      Notice that nasty ol' Metatron didn't give Aziraphale ONE SECOND ALONE to process his emotions about what happened or assess his actions. He came in the moment Crowley left to continue manipulating him.

    Dear god thank you for your reaction videos, they helped me cope with that madness of an ending a bit better ! I'd never seen your videos before but I just subscribed, I loved your take on things and would love to listen to a video essay about it from you if you do upload one ! I hope you've had some time to process that ending, sending you thanks and good vibes :)

    Okay I wasn't going to post a comment here since I watched the reactions on patron, but I literally finished watching this ep at 3:30am this morning and I don't know anyone who watches GO, so I STILL feel that I will implode if I don't have an outlet rn. So if anyone sees this comment and hasn't watched the ep yet, away with you. Heart-shattering spoilers below: These aren't all my thoughts. I TRIED to be brief.
    Alright, first off I want to talk about Gabriel and Beelzebub. I knew they were shipped after S1 but never gave it much thought besides them feeling neutral about each other. The first meeting they had (and the first half of the second one) I was like "OMFG POTENTIAL BESTIES (which may or may not include some passive aggressiveness)?!" And then, AND THEN,...I cannot tell you how down I am for this.
    I was already spoiled about the kiss because I watched this season a bit late and I saw a thumbnail (didn't even read the title) of the kiss on one of those damn tv show articles. And I wasn't really surprised. Before S2 was even confirmed, Neil made it ABUNDANTLY clear that they were canon. He has tweeted about GO being a love story but didn't feel that having a physical intimacy aspect in order to tell their love story was a necessary requirement (I quite agree. It was already so obviously a love story) because their love for each other is much deeper than just that. There is an article about Neil explaining why he decided to include the kiss. Long story short: it would have affected how that scene, and their entire relationship, would have been perceived by the audience if it wasn't included. He wanted to make things explicitly clear. Good choice.
    I was heartbroken throughout the entire scene. Zira has a major misunderstanding about Crowley's relationship with Heaven. He got cast out for simply asking a few questions (which Metatron mocked in that scene. "Always asking damn fool questions" How dare you). And the heartbroken betrayal on Crowley's face when Zira talked about making him an angel again broke me. Listen I watched S1 again before watching S2 sooo even those that entire conversation was painful, bringing up Nightingales (TWICE) is where I draw the line dammit. The audacity. Also Zira's "I forgive you" and "Nothing lasts forever" hurt so thanks for that. Mostly cuz Crowley misinterprets that last one.

    We’re SO on the same page. I keep watching it over and over and still can’t believe they kissed. I can’t cope. I’m like doing random stuff around the house to keep my mind off it but then suddenly I’m like “brO they kissed wtf” in the middle of doing the dishes.

    the thought i got after watching this series was: series 2 was like if neil gaiman were to write fanfiction of his own book. in good and the oh so horrid (horrid as in my heart is shattered, not badly written). and i shall never describe it as nothing but.

    This ep was so, so good. And broke my heart at the end (in a good way) That last 15 minutes or so 😢I’m gonna need a whole ep of nothing but Aziraphale doing the I’m sorry dance.
    Season 3 better happen 🙂 (Neil said he’s started working on it but things are on hold cause, ya know, strikes… ) also, doesn’t sound officially greenlit yet. So we may not hear for a bit (that’s my take not Neil’s)
    Interestingly, I saw he also responded to someone asking if this was the sequel he’s mentioned he and Terry Pratchett had discussed maybe doing and he said no, this season was what was needed to set things up for where the sequel would start.

      ahhhhhh ok but like, consider: aziriphale's NOT the only one wrong here! they both are, they've both done bad things in their own ways (azi admittedly trying to change crowley to be 'good' and crowley verbally abusing azi and assaulting him-because yes, as much as we love the kiss, it was still ASSAULT). aziriphale is NOT the only one in the wrong here. at the end of the day, they want to be together, it's just that aziriphale wants to be together in heaven and crowley wants to run away together. they BOTH aren't compromising on that.
      hah, sorry, that's just a little pet peeve. we're both still recovering from that ending, i just rlly wanted to say this :')

      At this point (honestly don’t know where Crowley goes from here) only one of them has voluntarily signed on to help bring about the end of the world, so, to quote Gabriel “Nah” 🙂 I adore Aziraphale, but no, they were not both equally wrong here. Also, however he intended it, what he’s telling Crowley is he’ll always see him as someone broken who needs fixing. One of the bad guys. That Crowley as he is could never be good enough.

      @letolethe3344 Рік тому +1

      I have two theories on that: either Aziraphale has quickly thought up a way to thwart the "second coming" (and/or get together again w/ C?) OR the elevator has some kind of miracle put on it to gradually erase either his memories of C, or even rewrite his past in the Book of Life.
