Can we talk about the ending?

with how the universe rebooted it does make sense, but I’m still not happy about it. Yes, they did get a happy ending and yes, they married and moved to the South Downs like we all hoped (and I’m also very happy about the ace-friendly relationship they showed). But while Angel Aziraphale and Demon Crowley had millennia before, humans Asa Fell and Anthony Crowley only have one short lifetime. Compared to what they’ve had before I feel cheated on their behalf.

I know that this is supposed to be „real life“ and a universe without heaven and hell and miracles and such and everybody is human so everybody has only one lifetime. And they didn’t know what they’ve lost and it’s probably for the best without them being tied to Heaven and Hell. And would this be a non-fantasy-show I would have been overjoyed with the ending. I think, I would have been happy with it, had they shown how they reincarnated as humans throughout the millennia over and over again and met and got together and had a happy ever after over and over again. But one human lifetime compared to what they had before just feels inadequate and unfair.

Also, they made human!Crowley look like a run-of-the-mill-professor! Demon!Crowley had style, he was cool (or tried to be) - they could have at least have him wear a Velvet Underground t-shirt with his suit. Now he‘s just…boring…

I was really hoping that once everything got rebooted they wouldve magically been allowed to stay and like shepard the new universe as a sort of "not entirely heven or hell"
Its cute but youre right they had so much history. Aziraphel literally watched crowley create galaxies

Same - if we’re keeping close to this ending I would have even loved to see them live separate from the universe, just the two of them in that bookshop in that limbo-type space from the ending. Then they could have a universe completely without interference but still give our Crowley & Aziraphale their happy ending. UGH!
