I haven't read the book, i didn't even know there was a book until just a moment ago from writing this review. Anyways, Good Omens doesn't even have a reason for being so good. It isn't super thrilling, the story is absurd, and I rarely ever laughed. But Good Omens is just really fun to watch. And it's all thanks to the two main characters, they just are entertaining. Anytime they aren't on screen the show goes down in entertainment, gets boring, and kind of becomes cheesy. I honestly would watch them do anything and be incredibly entertained. With that being said, the last episode is pretty good on it's own. Goodbye.

Season 2 edit: This season is just a tad worse than the first season. Yes, there is more focus on the main two characters and it had me laughing a little more. The side characters are equally bad, although Gabriel and the bug lady in the last episode were entertaining. The main thing that made this season worse was that the first four episodes were slow and it felt like the spark that quietly made season one a good show was gone. In conclusion, if season 3 receives the same amount of hate as this season has I probably won't be watching it.
