I truly loved Good Omens 2 until the very end. The show made me smile, and feel happy while enjoying it until about the 4th episode when I realized where they were pointing it.

I really worry about Liberals’ insistence that to care about someone is to want to fuck them. It leads me to believe they will 100% molest their children, unless they hate them.
They don't know the difference between sexual attraction and love, between eros and agape.
They're the same assholes who, as kids, would say stuff like "if you like it so much, why don't you marry it?"
They have the same issue with Luca Pixar film. They cannot understand a close Male friendship not wanting to be romantic, and it's a kids movie.
They are degenerates.
“Those who cannot conceive of Friendship as a substantive love but only as a disguise or elaboration of Eros betray the fact that they have never had a Friend.” -C.S. Lewis
Man, I always wanna time travel and tighten up so many C. S Lewis quotes. Chesterton too.
"Never been a friend" would have worked better and cut deeper, since in my experience they still have people offering friendship, they just use them as tools and give nothing back.
What I really thought throughout was that no one writing for that show understands the concept of friendship. I've had lefty folks think my best friend and I were dating, even when we were both trying for the same girl. The left can't understand the concept, and demand the world fit into their black-and-white world.
Gay fetishization is often even creepier than some of the other gay stuff. Lefties just love - or sometimes just claim to love - anything gay, and try to 'ship' everything, both in fiction and in real life. Not that they can tell the difference.
It seems like a lot of it is learned, too. Most people, even leftists, don't love gay stuff. It's put on, it's trained. It's virtue-signaling.
I loved the book, but as soon as I started to watch episode 1 and saw they gender-swapped God I went “nope” and immediately turned off.
I have no idea what you’re referring to in S2, so, wild guess: do they have Aziraphale and Crawley get together as a couple by any chance?
A lesbian couple try to convince them to date, but Azeraphale is offered a job promotion at the same time and has no idea what to feel.
Gross. Why does it always have to be coerced, too. Even in-universe this time. Often it's the writers pushing shit, but here we even have the characters pushing it too. Totally not a fetish, though...
There's a kiss even, and it sets up the next season, which I really don't want to see.
I'm just glad the first season was pretty good. That's about the best we can ask for these days.
There are a lot of shows like this. The first season or two are amazing, and then its gone. Voltron for Netflix was like that. The last season has no point and shouldn't really be there.
Judging by your comments, that's disappointing. When even a film like Pacific Rim can do a platonic relationship but nothing where a leftist is involved can, they just see 'only those two guys are really friendly with each other, they must be fucking!'
I enjoyed the first season so I might watch up to the end and fast forward the end, like I did with GoT.
I loved the first season, and the set up for the second season is very good. Had they actually stayed with that story it could have been a few episodes longer and way better.
Feminists always want to make every male friendship in media into a gay romance, because they genuinely can't understand why men would sometimes prefer to spend time with other men over spending it with women unless there's a sexual reason.
Whether they understand or not, they're incentivized to stigmatize guys supporting each other. Divide and conquer.
And the story was kind of weak on top of it.
Though it seems like they were merely setting up for a third season, and needed something with which for bridge from the book.
But goddamn faggotry (with both sexes) throughout, and they ruined the relationship between the two main characters.
Not to mention ALL the damn angels were female (except the obvious two). They COULD have just gone with Bibically Correct, which would have been sexless, but no.
The set up and elements showed that they would rather have the message than actually tell a good story.
Pratchett liked to send messages too. But the more unsubtle his messages, the weaker his work was ...
Even the greats needed to understand subtlety and nuance from time to time.
What happened? It’s based on Terry Pratchet’s books right? I don’t trust a lot of modern tv so I saw it looked interesting and made a note to buy the books
The first season was better than the book it was based on.
Them's bold words. I may have to sail the seas to see that, most books that get a TV series I usually have to agree could have had punchier editing and trimmed some fat, which TV can be good for. But Good Omens wouldn't have been one of them.
I watched the show first, so it may be that. The writing was enjoyable, but it went on a bit, and I was beginning my Masters education.
Heh, "went on a bit" is still fair I guess, and I imagine that's probably even a phrasing Pratchet would describe himself with.
I guess what makes me less inclined to want to edit that one down is even the pointless parts weren't bland like so many other authors. They had enough character that the extra waffle felt like an additional part of the experience to a story told from the POV of some charming immortal eccentrics used to having too much time.
Oh I agree. It was a lot of fun to read.
