      @@rossy5632 Hi there! Guess kinda better late than never, but I do recommend the book. The humor is very British and references are made decidedly for a British audience, which makes sense since both authors are, so if that's not your taste, I wouldn't buy it. As for stuff missing...there isn't a whole lot removed, just changed. Usually to tone down the violence just a little. I'd like to classify the book as a Dark Comedy and I thoroughly enjoyed it as one. Just don't get your hopes up for "more gayness" in the book, it doesn't happen. Both Pratchett and Gaiman have a very implicit approach to writing, so the characters will never explicitly say something like "I love you" but it's heavily implied they do. Sorry the essay, but do give it a try, it's the one of the last projects Sir Pratchett worked on and is well worth the read!

Also, now that you mentioned it, i don't really want to read the book expecting to find more "explicit" romantic demostrations; i actually adored the fact that about the show, that you can tell they are in love just by seeing how much they care and do for each other. I guess, since i love even the most subtle details, i'm curious about which exactly are those changes, including their personalities, actions, characters and/or scenes. But yeah, i wanted to know what people think on the book, since i'd be my first time reading something from Neil and Terry, and i always tend to do a bit of research first hahah

      ‘Suddenly, she felt safe after all’

    The “I lost my best friend” also seems like a nod to the Queen song “you’re my best friend”, written about the writer’s WIFE. Crowley, who’s been involuntarily listening to Queen for decades, obviously knows that it’s a clearly romantic song. This is Crowley calling Aziraphale his husband.

Sometimes someone can be homosexual but heteroromantic. They have no romantic feelings for people of their same gender but find them sexually arousing. Or bisexual and heteroromantic or homosexual and biromantic.

    I can't cite this, but I remember reading somewhere that Gaiman has stated specifically that the /only/ reason he didn't make them explicitly in a romantic relationship (or, at least moreso ;)) in the TV show is because Terry isn't around for him to discuss that change with. Through most of the production of the show, Gaiman said the parts he tried most to preserve were Pratchett's bits (which, for example, is why we have a lot of narration despite it not translating perfectly to the medium or Gaiman's normal scriptwriting style) and the parts he felt most free to cut, change, and remove were the parts he wrote. Good Omens was the work of two writers who were friends, so idk I'm a little forgiving of Gaiman not wanting to change something so integral to the story into something different from what he and Pratchett had discussed explicitly. The actors played it like a romance, Gaiman thinks they love each other, and that's basically as gay as I think anyone is comfortable making the story so soon after the late great Terry Pratchett's death.

    I do believe Gaiman said they are, in fact, IN love. They're also queer. Part of the whole thing is that they have no gender nor sex (unless they want to), their feelings, their love is really just ineffable. He resents from saying they're gay because this is a specific title which is not entirely accurate. He, however, said they are canonically in love, are queer, are agender (or at least non binary) and that anyone can interpret that whoever they want. The representation is there, it's visible. They don't have to kiss or hold hands (even though they do, when getting on the bus in the last episode), it's the kind of love that you see in their body language, their words, the lightning and the soundtrack and everything else, the kind of love that you have for the person you want to spent eternity with, your best friend, your lover, your other half that makes your heart jump whenever you think of them. It's true love, and it's ineffable.

And so from my perspective I knew that the love story would be one of the driving things that would get us from the beginning to the end.”*

I love that they’re *not* “explicit”; they don’t kiss, they aren’t ridden with sexual tension, their love is beautiful and pure and divine, and exactly the type of love I want to see depicted on screen as an asexual aromantic human.

      I agree, the act representation is great but can we all stop demonizing sexual activity and making not having sex pure? Purity culture is inherently harmful and leads into rape culture and other crappy things. Maybe we can get to a place where both not being sexual and being sexual are legitimate choices and neither discredits the other.

Also, you can be nonbinary and use he/him or she/her pronouns- there are no rules and pronouns don’t necessarily equate to gender. The fact that they’re male-presenting would lead me to call them gay, but each to their own. (They v gay tho lmao)

    In my opinion I think that they’re pretty clearly together? Like, even my parents who try to deny all gay stuff could tell that they are together. It’s not exactly “gay subtext” when they’re constantly eating dinner together or having romantic music playing in the background of their scenes or looking at each other like that. Gaiman has stated that they’re both asexual, so they’re not going to kiss or do anything sexual. But they’re in love. They’re together. And I think that’s great representation. Not all romantic relationships are sexual relationships, too. And that isn’t represented a lot.

    I don’t think it’s queerbaiting, as long as you’re not selling them as gay. (The ones who actually did that was the fandom)
    Let’s compare, for an instance. Voltron, after that 5 minute shit about Adam and Shiro that not even the voice actors read as gay, the producers went off on screaming “HEY OUR SHOW IS GAY”, having it in the lgbtq tag on Netflix, the creator doing art that said so,,, all that stuff
    Now, Good Omens, the book, was never selled as GAY ENTITIES DATING, the story itself it’s so much more than that. The protagonists themselves only appear in like, half of the scenes. Their relationship shouldn’t be confirmed to be gay with a kiss or something because this was never the intention. The whole point is about how relationships can make us human, no matter if it’s romantic or not. Yes, I read them as gay, and most people do but the point of the thing is about how each individual reads them.

      So I’m guessing Beauty and the Beast being in a relationship should have been left ambiguous? Because love and relationships influence and change people, regardless of them being romantic?
      No. I can understand a little bit of the frustrations of the LGBTQ community because they do exist, and should be represented in film, and the most they’ve got in film and TV is secondary characters and villains, and gay-coded main characters left to the interpretations of the audience. If you were watching a rom-com, wouldn’t you feel satisfaction in knowing if the main characters ended up together in the end or would you be satisfied with an ambiguous or left to your interpretation ending - not just sometimes - but all of the time, across genres, cultures, even if the romantic / friendship was just a subplot?
      Queer-baiting is indeed a ploy to attract audiences of all types. And it’s like they value audiences who are LGBTQ lesser because they won’t give them the satisfaction of confirmed relationships, but the heterosexual relationships are “safe”. It is also a ploy to keep audiences of all types interested until however long the show may continue. Because the “confirmation” of the relationships is the reward for staying till the end, or the “left to audience interpretation” in the end somewhat reward anyways.
      I read that Voltron had a lot of creators, writers and producers conflict, and that is indeed what happens when you are unconventional and have diverse characters and sensitive themes. They did a lot of characters dirty, not even just those who were labelled LBGTQ.

    • @nc375
      @nc375 4 года назад +6

      yes their romance is ambiguous enough for all people to relate and to place their own perspective too. It's something that's very flexible, and because of this it has allowed the fandom to feel accepted and create diverse work about it. It's really a positive thing, you know? However Neil did say that he wanted to "take the beats of a love story, and see how that works". The fact that he changed it into a love story has made the tv show more meaningful to many people. The thing is, the love is there, just there - you just have to see it for yourself. And if you don't see it, well your way of the perspective of love is different. It's a beautiful thing to put really, to make it almost indirect and concealed. But all the hints are there - the music, the expressions, the body language, their decisions together to be on "their" side. They aren't even gay - they can't be gay if celestial beings aren't female or male. SO, it doesn't really mean that people can't say they're gay - literally their gender is ambiguous as stated earlier so all people can relate.

The label only exists because some humans decided heterosexuality to be the norm. However I'd take the argument that since they've spent so much time on earth though could have begun to identify as gay regardless. But we don't know whether that's the case.

    I think this is a really well done video, with a good message, but I'd like to add that for me, as someone on the asexual spectrum, it was really refreshing to see a central, deep, loving relationship be validated without sex or sexuality ever coming into the picture. No matter how you view the show, Crowley and Aziraphale's relationship is central, complex, and undeniably deep, and the show accomplishes that without sex as even a consideration. Not only that, but the advertising campaign for this show never tried to cash in on their relationship for representation cookie points. I agree that Neil Gaiman isn't some paragon of virtue, but the idea of this love existing outside of labels was really validating for me.
    Also, given that Crowley and Aziraphale are ancient supernatural entities who have lived through 6000 years of different ideas of sexuality, it would feel weird for them to suddenly latch onto a single modern label as a marker of identity. They've always been their own brand of queer, that doesn't fall into neat boxes, and that's rare in media, especially in protagonists.

      I mean this is what Neil Gaiman explicitly said and is also evident in the text and show so he’s not even just saying it after the fact like it’s literally just true and as much as I like this youtuber I don’t appreciate him implying Neil gaiman is queerbaiting just because it’s not an allo mlm relationship

    • @YugSihtTsuj
      @YugSihtTsuj 2 года назад +19

      There's a passage in the book that spells it out. Aziraphale, it says, is quite definitely _not_ gay, because all angels (including fallen ones) are actually asexual. They have no interest whatsoever in physical romance, but they can pursue one if there's a good reason, and "even then they (would) really have to work at it."
      Mind you, I think it's clear that what's between them is really and truly Love. It was purely platonic though, but no less true for that. They just didn't realize it until they were up against it.

    In the books: They're not gay, they're literally, deliberately, not gendered characters as we understand it - that said they are expressly written as a couple- I think they were described as 'an old married couple' by Gaiman.
    Gaiman also said in an interview about the show the only reason he didn't make them openly a gay couple in the TV show is because Terry Pratchett wasn't around to make that decision together with him about their characters.
    Head-canon: They are extremely gay and I love them.

      The thing is, I like it better what's it's not directly said. If it's blunt enough for some bigots to bristle at the series and most people to call them husbands, do they need to say they're gay? Did Disney need to say, Snow White, Cinderella, and Sleeping Beauty are straight with their prince charmings?

    • @adsfornothing3146

      Also the book has the typical STP sense of drama, that's *there* but not that huge. If you compare Good Omens with that drama thing being romantic love in mind to the discworld books, Nanny and Esme are gay (not a bad idea at all hahaha) and the entire watch is gay for Sam and the entirety of Ankh-Morpork is gay for Carrot except Vetinari, who is mah aroace babey. Also he's a pretty heartless genius and I love him. Ofc you can see Azi and Crowley as a couple, but I like to interpret that also as a sign that men can indeed be best friends and they can care for each other and cry over the others disappearence just like female characters do without being labelled as unmanly or gay. But that's just my opinion.
      (btw. I love seing Azi and Crowley as an old married couple but I also love seing male characters in fantasy not being forced to toxic masculinity by authors, but what do I know)

    In Gaiman’s defense, in the book, Aziraphael and Crowley are barely there (and their whole 6 thousand years’ long relationship with Victorians, Nazis and so on) was made exclusively for the show *because* so many readers noticed the subtext and shipped them. So the show was indeed sooo much gayer than the book. And I also like the asexual reading of the show - if you consider angels and demons as physically sexless, we were shown the extent of their love.
