I first came across the book in 2017, bought it and was immediately hooked by the story.
Years passed, and when they announced the casts for the series, I was skeptical (I’m not a big movie/TV person) as I knew nothing about Michael Sheen and David Tennant.
Decided to give it a try, and boy, it’s so good. Everyone is so perfectly casted.
The chemistry between Angel and Crawley is just umph chef’s kiss.
Although, I’m the archangle fucking gabriel is said in such an impeccable manner.
I’m genuinely worried about II. Not because I don’t think Gaiman can go it alone, but because the original had an unstable insanity to it that will be difficult to continue without being ridiculous for ridiculous’ sake.
I hope it’s good, of course.
Yeah I agree, the thing that makes the book so good is the tag-team between Pratchett and Gaiman, Pratchett was amazing at mixing humor and seriousness like a true comedian. No offense towards Gaiman of course, but even if it’s good it’ll probably feel like something is missing, because it is.
