    There'll be a cheaper version available from standard bookstores, just like with the Good Omens illustrated edition.

    What Are You Reading 4

    I'm doing a close rereading of the current paperback of Good Omens. Between the novel, the script, and the series, it gets confusing. Not quite as divergent as the various forms of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, but there are shifts in emphasis. Depending on some of the changes, the...

    SPOILERS Discussion of Good Omens, the series

    I've been looking at the fan art for Good Omens online, because when one searches for comments, they are usually mixed in with fanart. Much of it isn't to my taste but some I like, and some of the spinoff cartoons are funny. (Search for Crow-Ley and Aziradove, and also Abziraphale, which are...

    Good Omens.

    I just watched it again the last few days. It really was a good adaptation, with enough new stuff to make it not an exact copy.

    The Watch stills

    "Also inspired in part by Good Omens the series" I think. Their "Vimes" has a neckcloth that resembles Crowley's necktie effect.

    The program about Sir Terry. BBC2

    I watched this program after watching the first episode of Good Omens. I thought it very well made & it brought tears to my eyes in places too. Lovely that people are still keeping his name & books alive.

    SPOILERS Discussion of Good Omens, the series

    P.S. joan-daardvark has posted a (so far) three-part discussion of the use of the words "play", "game" and "real" in the Series, Good Omens. (as opposed to the Novel, Script, or 1991 movie-that-wasn't) It shows how carefully that script was written. Part 1 meta Part 2 meta Part 3 meta

    ...worse, appears in ancient Egyptian art and, if I recall correctly, also in ancient Sumerian art. It does help to explain why Michael in Good Omens is so judgemental. Although the scales are not shown in the series, they also could link Michael to Famine, whose symbol is the scales used to...

    Good Omens musical is still in development: https://www.goodomensthemusical.com/ Being developed by a team in regional NSW, they held a work-in-progress version last year which several of the Sydney fans went to see.

    SPOILERS Discussion of Good Omens, the series

    The huge online fandom for Good Omens has developed some specialized language. GOmens. Snek (for all things snake-related). Snootch (smootch+snoot). Crossover language: AJ and Zira (for the Series), versus Crow and Azi (for the Novel) --I think I have those right, but I don't think there's a...

    I had to look up the Ascot tie - it seems to be something from before I was born. Wow; if anything, an Ascot tie is even more formal than his usual bow-tie. As for the BBC screening "Good Omens" - it's about time! :)

    SPOILERS Discussion of Good Omens, the series

    Hmm... it's been years since I've read "Good Omens", so I can't remember what happened to Hastur. In the film, all we see is Crowley and Hastur (who possessed a mortal's body in the call centre) in the car. As Crowley drives through the fire, Hastur simply screams and screams, so I implied from...
