Good Omens is a miniseries[1][2][3] based on the 1990 novel of the same name by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman. A co-production between Amazon Studios and BBC Studios, the six episode series was created and written by Gaiman, who also served as showrunner. Douglas Mackinnon directed the series. Good Omens stars an ensemble cast led by David Tennant, Michael Sheen, Adria Arjona, Miranda Richardson, Michael McKean, Jack Whitehall, Jon Hamm and Frances McDormand.

All episodes were released on May 31, 2019, on Amazon Prime Video. They will be broadcast later this year on BBC Two.[4]

Set in 2018, the series follows the demon Crowley (David Tennant) and the angel Aziraphale (Michael Sheen), who, being accustomed to life on Earth, seek to prevent the coming of the Antichrist and with it Armageddon, the final battle between Heaven and Hell.[5]

Cast and characters

Main

  • Michael Sheen as Aziraphale: an angel who has lived on Earth since the dawn of creation. He was tasked with guarding the Garden of Eden with a flaming sword. He loves the finer things and currently owns an antiquarian bookstore in London.
  • David Tennant as Crowley: a demon who has lived on Earth since the dawn of creation. Originally called "Crawly", he is the Serpent who tempted Eve with the apple from the tree of knowledge of good and evil.[6]
  • Sam Taylor Buck as Adam Young: the reluctant Antichrist who was accidentally placed in the custody of the Young family
  • Jon Hamm as the Archangel Gabriel: the leader of the forces of Heaven. While Gabriel was only mentioned once in the original novel, his role was meant to be expanded in the never-finished sequel to Good Omens, so Gaiman incorporated parts of the plot of the planned sequel regarding the role of the angels into the TV series's plot.[5] In the novel, the leader of the forces of Heaven was the Metatron.
  • Frances McDormand as the voice of God: the narrator of the series
  • Jack Whitehall as Newton Pulsifer: a struggling computer engineer and descendant of witchfinder Thou-Shall-Not-Commit-Adultery Pulsifer.[6]
  • Adria Arjona as Anathema Device: Agnes Nutter's last descendant, an occultist who eventually teams up with Newton Pulsifer to try and stop the end of the world
  • Michael McKean as Witchfinder Sergeant Shadwell: the last officer of the once proud witchfinder army
  • Miranda Richardson as Madame Tracy: a part-time medium and courtesan

No.TitleDirected byWritten byOriginal release date
1"In the Beginning"Douglas MackinnonNeil GaimanMay 31, 2019 (2019-05-31)
Aziraphale, an angel and former guardian of Eden, and Crowley, the demon who tempted Adam and Eve in the form of the Serpent, are the respective representatives of Heaven and Hell on Earth. Both have grown fond of earthly life and have formed an alliance to complete various blessings and temptations whenever the other may require them. Crowley delivers the infant Antichrist to a hospital overseen by the Chattering Order of St. Beryl, a group of Satanic nuns. Two families are present at the hospital: the Dowlings, an American diplomat and his wife; and the middle-class Youngs. The Antichrist, meant for the Dowlings, is inadvertently placed with the Youngs. Aziraphale and Crowley, both reluctant to facilitate Armageddon, hope to influence the child (whom the Dowlings name Warlock) in equal heavenly and hellish measures so that he becomes normal. The two lie to their respective leaders, archangel Gabriel and head demon Beelzebub, about their plan. At Warlock's eleventh birthday party, Aziraphale and Crowley wait for the hellhound who is destined to arrive on the antichrist child's 11th birthday. When the hound does not arrive, they realize they have the wrong boy. The hellhound locates the real Antichrist, Adam Young, and conforms to Adam's wishes transforming into the form of a small dog. Adam names the hound "Dog", initiating the countdown to Armageddon, to Aziraphale and Crowley's chagrin.
2"The Book"Douglas MackinnonNeil GaimanMay 31, 2019 (2019-05-31)
The forces of Heaven and Hell still do not know about Aziraphale and Crowley's true plan. Meanwhile, a parcel deliveryman is given the task of summoning the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse: first War, then Famine, then Pollution and finally Death. American occultist Anathema Device (a descendant of Agnes Nutter) arrives in England. A flashback reveals that Agnes Nutter had written a book of her prophecies called The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch which also included when she would die. Before she was burned at the stake by Thou-Shalt-Not-Commit-Adultry Pulsifer, she sneaked some gunpowder and nails into her dress, which, when she was set alight, also killed everyone present. In the present day, Newton Pulsifer (a descendant of Thou-Shall-Not-Commit-Adultry Pulsifer) meets Shadwell, a modern-day witchfinder, who invites him to join his crusade. He also meets Madame Tracy, a harlot and medium, and Shadwell's landlady. Meanwhile, Aziraphale and Crowley go to the nunnery to figure out what went wrong in the baby switch. All the records, however, have been destroyed because Crowley's fellow demons burned the nunnery. Adam and his friends later meet Anathema, who lives nearby, and they befriend her. Aziraphale and Crowley, while driving, collide with Anathema on her bicycle. Helping her home, they accidentally take her book. Aziraphale reads the book at his bookshop and notices the accuracy of her prophecies, which include the location and name of the Antichrist, Adam Young.
3"Hard Times"Douglas MackinnonNeil GaimanMay 31, 2019 (2019-05-31)
The episode begins with a series of historical and biblical events that Aziraphale and Crowley have witnessed and experienced and how their relationship grew, including Aziraphale robbing a church for Crowley to prevent the latter's death. Among these events are Noah's Ark before the flood, the Crucifixion of Jesus, the days of King Arthur, meeting William Shakespeare, the French Revolution, and dealing with Nazis seeking books of prophecies during World War II. In the present day, Adam comforts Anathema after she loses her book. Both Aziraphale and Crowley separately send Shadwell to find Adam. Shadwell later sends Newton there to investigate. Aziraphale tries to tell Gabriel and the forces of Heaven about the Antichrist switch up, but they do not seem to care and later cast suspicion on him. Meanwhile, Adam mysteriously makes a nuclear reactor disappear from an air base because of what Anathema told him.
4"Saturday Morning Funtime"Douglas MackinnonNeil GaimanMay 31, 2019 (2019-05-31)
Things that Adam has read about and been told by Anathema become true, such as Tibetan monks inhabiting an underground tunnel, the reappearance of the Lost City of Atlantis, aliens, and the Kraken destroying whaling ships. Aziraphale tries to convince Gabriel to prevent the war, but he refuses. Gabriel also learns Aziraphale has been consulting Crowley. Meanwhile, Newton soon arrives in Adam's home village, Tadfield. His car crashes, injuring him and causing Adam and his friends to bring him to Anathema's house to recover. Newton reveals to her that Adam is the Antichrist. Adam starts showing signs of being the Antichrist, which worries his friends. He eventually does not allow them to leave his sight. As Adam calls down a storm upon Tadfield, Newton and Anathema hide under the bed and have sex, fulfilling another of Nutter's prophecies. Ligur and Hastur discover that Crowley lied about finding the real Antichrist and go after him. Crowley manages to kill Ligur with holy water and traps Hastur in his answering machine. Meanwhile, God talks the audience through the theological question, 'How many angels can dance on the head of a pin?' Aziraphale consults the Metatron and tries to convince him to prevent the war, but he too agrees it is a good thing. Shadwell arrives in Aziraphale's bookshop convinced he is in league with the witches and demons, and tries to exorcise him, but ends up separating him from his mortal body and sending him up to Heaven. Shadwell also accidentally burns down the bookshop.
5"The Doomsday Option"Douglas MackinnonNeil GaimanMay 31, 2019 (2019-05-31)
Crowley becomes deeply distraught to find Aziraphale's bookshop in flames and no sign of him, leading him to believe he has "lost his best friend." Meanwhile, Aziraphale is discorporated from his physical body. He is able to tell Crowley that he placed information about the Antichrist in Agnes Nutter's book, which Crowley salvaged from the bookshop. Aziraphale co-inhabits Madame Tracy's body. With Shadwell, they head to the military base in Tadfield to meet with Crowley. Hastur escapes from the answering machine and teleports into Crowley's car, which Crowley drives through a fire, causing Hastur to be incinerated. Adam comes into his power, but he frightens off his friends. Upset over his friends leaving him, Adam comes back to himself, not fully remembering events. He and his friends also head to the military base, where the Four Horsemen have taken over the classified communications hub from which they gain control of all the world's systems. Crowley catches up with Shadwell and Madame Tracy.
6"The Very Last Day of the Rest of Their Lives"Douglas MackinnonNeil GaimanMay 31, 2019 (2019-05-31)
Adam uses his abilities to separate Aziraphale from Madame Tracy. Adam's friends defeat War, Pollution and Famine, while Death takes his leave. Beelzebub and Gabriel come to Earth to have Adam start Armageddon in accordance with the Great Plan, yet Adam refuses. Aziraphale and Crowley suggest to their respective superiors that what they want may be part of the Great Plan, but perhaps not the Ineffable Plan. Both sides reluctantly stand down. Satan hears of Adam's refusal from Beelzebub and comes up to Earth to destroy Adam. Adam confronts Satan, renouncing him as his father. Satan disintegrates just as Adam's earthly father arrives, rendering Adam human and no longer the Antichrist. Adam repairs the world to how it was before Armageddon started, including restoring Aziraphale's bookshop and Crowley's Bentley. Aziraphale and Crowley are tried by their respective peers for treason. They are found guilty and are sentenced to the most extreme punishment, with Aziraphale being told by Gabriel to get into the Hellfire, and Crowley being forced to enter a tub filled with holy water provided by Michael. To everyone's shock, however, they both survive. Back on Earth, Aziraphale and Crowley re-exchange their outer appearances, having swapped them to enable them to survive their sentences. Anathema is sent a continued version of Agnes Nutter's prophecies, but Newton convinces her to let go of her responsibility to follow the prophecies and she burns them. Adam still has some of his reality-warping powers but is temporarily confined to his parents' property. Shadwell and Tracy start a relationship. Aziraphale and Crowley finally have lunch as a nightingale finally sings in Berkeley Square, though God states that nobody can hear it over the traffic.

Development

Pratchett and Gaiman had planned to adapt Good Omens as a movie for years, with various directors and writers attached to the project at various times. In 2011, a television series, written by Terry Jones and Gavin Scott, was first reported to be in the works but no further plans were announced.[8] After Pratchett's death, Gaiman refused to ever consider working on the adaptation alone but changed his mind when he received a letter from Pratchett, written to be sent after his death, urging him to finish the project.[9]

On January 19, 2017, it was announced that Amazon Prime Video had given a green-light to a television series adaptation of the novel to be co-produced with the BBC in the United Kingdom. Executive producers were set to include Gaiman, Caroline Skinner, Chris Sussman, Rob Wilkins, and Rod Brown. Gaiman was also set to adapt the novel for the screen and serve as showrunner for the series. Production companies involved with the series were slated to consist of BBC Studios, Narrativia, and The Blank Corporation. Distribution of the series was to be handled by BBC Worldwide.[10]

Casting

Sheen as Aziraphale and Tennant as Crowley while filming.

On August 14, 2017, it was announced that Michael Sheen and David Tennant had been cast in the lead roles of Aziraphale and Crowley, respectively.[11] On September 14, 2017, Gaiman revealed on Twitter that Nina Sosanya, Ned Dennehy, and Ariyon Bakare had joined the main cast.[12] A day later, Jack Whitehall, Michael McKean, Miranda Richardson, and Adria Arjona were announced as series regulars.[13] A week after that, Sam Taylor Buck, Amma Ris, Ilan Galkoff, Alfie Taylor, Daniel Mays, and Sian Brooke were also cast.[14] In October 2017, it was reported that Jon Hamm, Anna Maxwell Martin, Mireille Enos, Lourdes Faberes, and Yusuf Gatewood had joined the main cast.[15][16] In November 2017, it was reported that Reece Shearsmith and Nicholas Parsons had also been cast.[17][18] On 15 December 2017 it was reported that Derek Jacobi would voice the Metatron.[19]

On 9 February 2018 it was announced that Steve Pemberton and Mark Gatiss had joined the series.[20] On 6 March 2018, it was announced that Nick Offerman had been cast in a series regular role.[21] On 20 July 2018, it was announced during Amazon's San Diego Comic-Con panel that Frances McDormand had been cast as the voice of God as well as the series' narrator.[22] On 13 February 2019, Neil Gaiman announced that Benedict Cumberbatch will voice Satan with the character itself being a CGI creation.[23]

Filming

Principal photography on the series began in September 2017, with Gaiman tweeting a picture of Tennant and Sheen in costume on set.[24] In October 2017, the production was spotted filming in Surrey.[25] The series also filmed in St James's Park in London and Hambleden[26] in Buckinghamshire, and wrapped in March 2018 in Cape Town, South Africa.[27] Gaiman revealed at the New York Comic Con 2018 panel that they used a Bentley 1934 model, unlike the 1929 model mentioned in the book. This was due to the authors' lack of research on cars at the time of writing the book, and the 1934 model was more the look the authors had in mind.[28]

The six episodes of the series was released on Amazon Prime Video on May 31, 2019,[29] and will later broadcast weekly on BBC Two.[30]

Marketing

On October 6, 2018, the series held a panel at the annual New York Comic Con in New York City. The panel was moderated by Whoopi Goldberg and featured creator Neil Gaiman, director Douglas Mackinnon, and cast members Michael Sheen, David Tennant, Jon Hamm, and Miranda Richardson. During the panel, the first trailer for the series was premiered and subsequently released online.[31][32]

During SXSW 2019, Amazon Prime hosted a Good Omens "Garden of Eden" Party in Austin, Texas during the entire week of the festival. The party was hosted by performers dressed as angels and demons, respectively, with free food, hair & nail services, and a full complimentary bar. David Tennant, Michael Sheen, Jon Hamm, Douglas Mackinnon, and Neil Gaiman made a guest appearance at the Garden of Eden briefly before showing an episode of the series for an early screening at Zach Theatre. A party hosted at the Garden by Entertainment Weekly featured a fire-breather and a spot-on Queen cover band. Good Omens-branded umbrellas and tote bags were handed out at the pop-up experience, and the Garden featured a petting zoo full of local, adoptable puppies called "Hell Hounds".[citation needed]

Reception

Good Omens has received generally positive reviews from critics. On Rotten Tomatoes, it has an approval rating of 84% based on 79 reviews with an average score of 7.15 out of 10. The site's critical consensus is, "A smörgåsbord of heavenly imagery and irreverent hilarity, Good Omens works thanks to Michael Sheen and David Tennant's very-nearly-holy (or maybe unholy?) chemistry – though, at only six episodes long, it's a rare adaptation that may have benefited from being a little less faithful to the good book."[33] On Metacritic it has a score of 66% based on reviews from 19 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[34]

Petition for cancellation

An online petition that erroneously requested Netflix cancel Good Omens has reportedly received more than 20,000 signatures from people objecting to the show's content. The petition, posted as part of a "Return to Order" campaign by a US Christian organization, criticizes the show's irreverent treatment of topics relating to satanism and the devil, and the use of a female voice for God. The petition has subsequently been removed from the site, corrected and reposted.[35][36]
