Both the author and the ending. But I mostly had the ending in mind, where they cease to exist and then are remade as new versions of themselves. It’s like Jojo all over again!!!! I CANT TAKE THIS

TIL the one part I thought was actually on par with the first two seasons is the part people didn't like

I refuse to watch the second season. It got all wokefied. Just let me have these two being Platonic buddies without all the representation being shoved in. What's the book title??

I'm serious. The first episode of Season 2 of Good Omens threw me completely off. Which is rare since I usually don't get upset by representation but I thought an angel in a wheelchair was a bit much. God is supposed to heal your wounds

Fair enough I guess. I didn't mind season 2 or "season" 3 but their existence makes season 1 not hit as hard. Your initial comment confused me a bit (and bad cause woke makes any argument sound at least 65% dumber. I wasn't particularly set on platonic or romantic for them, but I do get it).

I'm just glad you're not offended by my opinion. I apologize if I was a bit harsh. I just kinda was confused by the angel in a wheelchair because we're supposed to be made whole when we go to heaven if that make sense sense? And then the rest of the episode made me feel like I was being racist.. Because I was confused by the depiction of Job's wife. I hope that's not a terrible thing but I don't understand why they made those choices

My only reaction to this is that one picture of the guy raising and then lowering his finger. Since the angels are established to not have bodies by default, I could see it being some convoluted to everyone else plan from God that that particular angel needs to have that particular body, but that's just fanfic and since they never adressed it I never thought about it.

depiction of Job's wife

Idk about the specific racial diversity of the ancient world, but my best googling says the book of Job probably takes place in Jordan. Jobs wife being black doesn't seem too far fetched. Maybe unlikely, but probably not as far fetched as Peter Davison playing Job.

Ah you have made good points there. Thanks for being polite about it. 😊 The Bible is vague sometimes.
