As a reader of "Good Omens" the book I really looked forward to this Amazon Prime production. Usually Neil Gaiman adaptations (and Terry Prachett, the co-author) are much better, well, adapted. This "Good Omens" TV series lacks adequate production values, casting choice, script treatment (pacing, matters of plot including setup, climax, resolution) as well as overall entertainment. While I did basically dedicate myself to watching the entire series rather than fully enjoying it, I did find areas of real promise and that type of Gaiman fantasy horror and philosophical acceptance and Prachett whimsy for this series to be not entirely disappointing. I would say this series is hit and miss, but overall acceptable despite a cringe factor in how sometimes overly politically correct (gay! Asian! Black!) the series is and specifically annoying to me, how similar lead actors David Tennant and Martin Sheen look. I know there was a point in them looking alike, but it was just too on the nose for me. I really wish this series was better, and I'm so annoyed it's not, but for what it is and the themes it has and the story devices the authors have laid within it, this series is still better at heart than most. So 7/10.

Btw I get the type of look they were going for with the cheap special effects, a type of low budget 80s/90s look a la Neil Gaiman's "Neverwhere" screenplay production, but they were just too inconsistent with it so everything seemed piecemeal and I just didn't appreciate the follow through rather than the actual idea of it. For me the effect was "cheap" rather than "tongue in cheek." Incidentally "Neverwhere" is a series you should look into because Gaiman wrote it for screenplay before writing his book, "Neverwhere." Low budget, but much more effective.I

P.S. The 9 and 10 star reviews are really obvious and they suck. Also what's with the downvoting of 6, 7 and 8 star reviews?
