The response to the pilot episode far exceeded expectations so, I'll be continuing with the show! :)
In order to avoid spoilers as much as possible, I'll be recording the rest of season one and all of season two before releasing the next episode here on RUclips.
So, you should see episode two in about 3-ish weeks, if I had to guess.
If you don't want to wait, the full reactions will be going out every Saturday (one episode per week) starting THIS WEEK over on Patreon: www.patreon.com/britanybinges
Cool!
3-ish weeks. eh... 🤣 (jk, take your time... I'm the one that decided I wouldn't watch this until you posted episode 6)
@@Fizzbuzz994 Yeah, those three weeks went out of the window REAL fast. lol But, we're here now and back in it. Although, there is going to be a another break. lol I posted a video about me taking a break to do some traveling. So, season 2 won't start until July 1st.
i love this show so much, david and michael’s chemistry is everythingggg
It's definitely the main thing I enjoyed about this episode. :)
I think one of the main draws for this show without giving anything away is the complex emotional dynamics, especially between the two main characters. And I would urge anyone to watch it just to appreciate the fantastic acting shown by them throughout the show. I honestly didn’t really get drawn in the first time I watched it and stopped after one and a bit episodes but then when I came back to it later I became hooked. It really grabbed me second time round for some reason and I became obsessed. So in short yeah might be a bit of a slow burner but worth it because the writing and acting is excellent throughout.
I'm really glad to hear that, even though it didn't hook you the first time around, you came to love it. That's what I'm hoping will happen for me.
And, honestly, I think your comment made me realize why I wasn't instantly sold. I loved the visuals, the humor, the premise, the chemistry between the two of them, etc. so it was kind of confusing for me at the end why I wasn't super into it. But, I think it's because I wasn't really able to form any emotional attachments to any of the characters. That's the #1 most important thing for me when watching a show. So, it's encouraging to hear there will be some complex emotional dynamics. :)
It's been a while, but i remember hearing that Supernatural Crowley was specifically named after/in reference to Good Omens Crowley. with the whole demon who's against the apocalypse because they like earth the way it is and don't want the world to end thing. that's all they have in common though
the book came out in 1990 btw. season 2&3 of the show are from sequel that Gaiman & Pratchett plotted but never got the chance to write before Pratchett died.
that might be why you have some trouble getting into it, actually- this ep wasn't meant to be a "pilot". season 1 wasn't originally meant to be a first season, it was meant to be the entirety of the show, just putting the novel to the screen. Neil Gaiman did not produce this show for audience/ratings/etc- the usual stuff pilot eps are grabbing for. He pushed it through as a tribute to his late beloved friend, Sir Terry. that it's done so well is likely due to the decades of the novel's cult following.
That would make sense that SPN's Crowley was based on this one. I could definitely see some similarities just in this first episode.
Good to know this wasn't exactly a traditional pilot. :)
@@BritanyBinges exactly! I mean, I'm very glad that the story is being brought to new audiences like you who aren't already familiar with it. it's an amazing story and the cast&crew did such a wonderful job of translating it to live action. this is just one of those times when a little context on the background matters to understanding production choices
also, i just realized I referenced a s03- that hasn't been made, but if it gets greenlit, that's where Neil's getting the plot from.
Pretty sure both are Based on Aleister Crowley, the occultist.
Omg, I hope you'll enjoy this show, especially now that season 2 is out! Welcome to Good Omens!
I honestly didn't even know there was a season two and it just so happened that I put this on a poll right at the same time it was coming out. lol
It's a satire about trying to prevent Armageddon. The only other thing you should be aware of it that it is based on a BELOVED book, which explains the narration, etc. It's a labor of love for Neil Gaiman to give his friend Terry Pratchett (who passed away a number of years ago) a final wish, for the book that they wrote together to be adapted.
i think the reason crowley suggested that aziraphale kill warlock instead of doing it himself is bc he's still operating under the assumption that warlock is the antichrist, and hell WANTS the antichrist to begin armageddon. crowley killing the antichrist would make him a traitor regardless, whereas aziraphale would be able to spin it as a good/angelic/holy act against hell, and so heaven may be willing to forgive him
that is definitely true. There are other reasons as well, but saying what those are would venture dangerously close to spoiler territory
David and Michael actually weren't friends before they did this show. They only knew one another to say hi at a party or something DT said they became closer during the publicity tour phase of the series. And then they did their own show, Staged, during Lockdown.
I would say give it at least three episodes before you decide. There are lots more characters to introduce, but I think it will gain you lots of viewers.
Just about to comment this. Though, you could easily think they were bffs already at this point, as they had such immediate chemistry when they first made this show.
It's funny to think how far they've come since then, with their families now entwined (especially in their show 'Staged'), and with even two of their daughters -- born a few days apart -- sending video messages to each other all the time. ❤
I hope you stick with this one. It's a slow burner but the character dynamics get *so* good. This first episode has to cram in quite a lot of backstory to get us to the start of the story proper.
This is great to know! I care the most about the characters when it comes to a show. So, it's encouraging that a few comments now have specifically mentioned character dynamics. :)
This is an amazing show, really hope you enjoy it x Also hope you can spot all the Doctor Who references
Oh, I'm sure I'll miss plenty of the references since I don't know the show as well as most people who have watched it repeatedly, but I did catch at one least in this episode. Lol (Not sure if him saying was supposed to actually be a reference to the Smith and Jones episodes, but it definitely made me think of that.)
I would love it if you continued your reactions to Good Omens! It's a very entertaining show based on one of my favorite books. It's worth it even just for watching Michael Sheen and David Tennant have fun acting together, but then you also get a great cast of side characters!
Thanks for this feedback! It's good to know there will be some great side characters eventually. The characters are always the #1 most important thing for me with any show. :)
The first episode of Good Omens had to cram a lot of info and introduce a lot of characters for a 6 episode series. It's not abnormal to find this episode a bit odd, even for extremely long time fans of the novel like me. Supernatural did pull some inspirations from Good Omens (and a number of other Neil Gaiman works as Kripke is a big fan of his), so when the time came SPN borrowed the name Crowley for their demon.
I'm glad it's not abnormal to find this episode a little odd. Knowing now that it's based off a book and that the season is only six episodes long (neither of which I knew before watching it) it definitely makes more sense. I do also love the idea that SPN's Crowley was based on this one. :)
ye i think the pacing might feel a bit atypical because the first season is a very faithful adaptation of the book. personally, it took me until after the cold open of the third episode to be fully hooked. hope you give it a chance! c:
This is actually really great information to have! It's good to know that not everyone who's a fan of the show was hooked right away AND that I'm not the only one who that the pacing was a little odd for a pilot. :)
I'm definitely open to giving it a chance (especially when I learned after posting this on Patreon that the first season is only six episodes).
We'll see how it does on here and what the feedback is like. :)
This show is fantastic. Yes it starts very slow, but what makes the show is the chemistry and relationship between the Angel and the Demon. they are absolutely the best part of the show and if you can manage past the slower parts, you do get to really fun moments and development
More please! I think as long as you're into the dynamic between the two leads, you'll probably enjoy the rest of the series. They're very much the heart of the show, even if there are other things happening 😁
Their dynamic was definitely my favorite thing about this episode and the characters are always the most important thing in a show for me. So, that's promising. :)
Also, I noticed your pic and username... just in case you're not aware, I recently started releasing Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. reactions on the channel. Episode 1x3 will be published tomorrow. :)
@BritanyBinges That's actually how I found your channel! Happy to see you're watching multiple great shows! 😄
Good omens is very good and one of my favorite shows, please watch more, it’s a slow burn
Im guessing that you havent read the book but the Nuns are from the Chatteting order of St Beryl, named after a nun called Beryl who couldnt stop chattering and who was subsequently strangled for her annoying habit.
No, I haven't read it. I honestly didn't know it was based on a book until I watched this.
@@BritanyBinges Neil Gaimen is great in everything. Add Sir Terry Pratchett and you've got gold.
Nun? Annoying _habit?_ Eh, eh? Good stuff. 😄
Hope you do the whole show! 2 seasons now and even that is only 12 episodes all in. Not a big commitment but an aweseome journey.
My favourite thing about it is the dynamic between the two leads, they're amazing together and even more so in season 2.
I'll watch anything Tennant and Sheen do together now, including the comedy miniseries Staged which stars them as themselves and is brilliant.
This show is absolutely amazing. And I'm very exited to see more of your reaction to this
I can't relate because when I watched this during the pandemic I started episode one at 11pm and couldn't put it down until I had finished the whole season. But there are definitely some parts of the story that are more engaging than others! Would love to see more reactions to this show.
What happened to the spare baby is exactly what God described. It's not a spoiler to tell you that.
honestly i watched the first season only for two main characters and their chemistry. the plot and other characters weren’t interesting to me but the second season is much much better and even funnier!! i really liked season 2 so i recommend to continue reacting to this show
Thanks for this feedback! Glad to hear you liked season two even more than season one.
i hope you continue with this show. the first season is good but the second season is even better. the relationship of crowley and aziraphale is so fun and entertaining
So everyone who has mentioned the second season has said it's better than the first. That's very encouraging. :)
@@BritanyBingesI just finished the second season a couple days ago. I….liked it? Still mulling it over in my mind, but I don’t think I liked it better than season 1. I can see why other people would, it was REALLY playing to the fan base. That got a little annoyingly distracting for me. But it was still better than most other shows I have seen recently.
@@BritanyBingesI prefer the second one as well, but loved them both.
I looove good omens!!! michael sheen and david tenant are amazing in it ! one of my favorite shows!
This is definitely a show that can take a bit to truly understand, or go along with some of the more absurdist things in it. The two main characters definitely steal the show though, and their emotional dynamic with each other is just so great to watch on screen! It takes a little getting used to, and I hope you continue with it! I love this show so much, and I’m so excited to watch season 2!
At first, I wasn't fully onboard with Good Omens either. I watched the show because of David Tennant (soon after I watched Broadchurch which was an AMAZING show), and I had no idea who Michael Sheen was (I watched Twilight when I was a teen so I didn't remember much). I'm not from an English speaking country, I hadn't read the Good Omens book (or anything by Neil or Terry for that matter), and I was not a Christian. So I had NO IDEA what I was in for.
As you might already understand, coming from a place like that, the show did feel a little "silly" but I stayed for Michael-David dynamic. They are SO GREAT as Aziraphale and Crowley, I didn't really care much for the plot! After Season 1 was done, I didn't think about Good Omens again mainly because it was advertised as a "limited series", a one off and Season 1 ended without any loose ends. Plus, this was 2019. I wasn't into any social media, so I was oblivious to the references, easter eggs and theories surrounding the whole show. However, since I loved Michael and David... I wished maybe they could work together. Then the Covid lockdown happened and I stumbled upon RUclips clips of "Staged" - a zoom call format comedy show David and Michael did during Covid. Staged was hilarious and very well done so I started loving them together so much more! On a whim, I decided to read Good Omens. AND OH BOY. I LOVED THE BOOK SO MUCH! I went back and rewatched the show, fell in love with it and AziCrow all over again! Now I cannot even imagine ANY other actor playing Aziraphale and Crowley. I also watched other reactors and their discussions which made me realize how brilliant the show actually is (as I didn't really know about Christianity this helped me a lot!). I slowly got into the fandom and read theories and explanations... honestly I regretted how LATE I was for everything.
I know there are people who will not be into shows like Good Omens for different reasons, but I believe if there is enough *curiosity* to look for things around Good Omens... many more people will come to love it so much more. That's what happened with me. I was in for Michael-David's chemistry initially but I stayed for the brilliant story telling once I understood what the show means.
And Season 2 did not disappoint! I can safely say I love it more than Season 1 even though the ending was a little painful. I really really hope we get a Season 3 - the cast and crew deserve it and we do too.
Love that everyone’s reacting to this show now that Season 2 is out!
What's funny is, I put this on a Patreon poll last month without even knowing there was a season 2. lol
Forgot how much I loved Frances McDormand's narration as God.
Please keep watching straight through to Season 2!! This series is incredible. Honestly, in my opinion, S2 is far better because it focuses almost entirely on Crowley and Aziraphale rather than having a bunch of complex storylines woven together.
Thanks for this feedback!
I absolutely adore this show! Especially since s2 just came out!
Yeah, I didn't even know there was a second season until after this won a poll over on Patreon. So, the timing really worked out. lol
OH?? MY GOD?? I DIDN'T KNOW YOU'D BE DOING THIS I AM ECSTATIC
Please continue with this, I think there's a lot you'll enioy. I've been hyperfixating on this (again) bc season 2 came out recently but even that aside it's definitely one of my favorites
Thanks for this feedback!! :)
Yeah please continue to watch
It s difficult to understand on beginning but everything clip together at the end
Thanks for this feedback! :)
It's definitely worth continuing in my opinion, it gets so much better. The book is also worth reading, written by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman. Regardless if you decide to continue, I enjoyed this video and I'm looking forward to more Doctor Who
I doubt I would read the book and it's not really what I typically read, but I'm definitely open to continuing the show. :)
Michael Sheen & David Tennant didn't get cast because they were already best friends, they became best friends because of the fact they were cast together. Stars aligning and all that.
I adore this show and it would be really cool to see you react to the rest of it! The character dynamic between Crowley and Aziraphale is definitely the big seller for me, and you get a lot more of that over the next few episodes. However there is a very specific sort or whimsy and humour to Terry Pratchett's writing in particular that if it clicks with you then its brilliant, but if its not for you then that's that. If you do chose to watch the rest I hope you enjoy it though and I look forward to seeing what you think of it!
Michael Sheen also voiced 'House' (the living asteroid thing) in The Doctor's Wife!
I think its cos its not a pilot... its part one of a 6 part story of a book adaptation... so its setting things up... but not necessarily doing what pilot shows do which have a more or less contained element... wort sticking with... ep 3 is just amazing... but not necessarily cos something big happens... its just lovely to watch.
And the chemistry between the two just gets better and better... they were not friends b4 this... but considering how brilliantly they are together, you wudnt think it... and well its led to the most awesomene dou ever... not just on the show, but on Staged and real life... i adore their friendship...
Carry on watching... its only 6 eps....Worth it
This show is worth continuing in my opinion. Like others in the comments have said it only gets better.
Thanks for this feedback! :)
You really spent a full 5 minutes saying you didn't like it lol. Fair enough, no need to justify yourself. Everyone has different tastes when it comes to media. Good Omens as a whole is kind of an acquired taste but Crowley and Aziraphale as the main characters are definitely the highlight, and season 2 focuses a lot on them.
I really hope you keep reacting to this show!! Honestly it should be more well-known than it is. Also if you're interested, season 2 is amazing! Would totally watch those reactions
Thanks for this feedback! Good to know people are liking season 2. :)
Hi Britany. The book and the show is largely a parody of the Classic horror movie The Omen and a lot of the humor relates to that and the book of Revelations. It's definitely worth watching especially if you like Queen music. Just a quick note the name Crowley is almost certainly taken from the British occultist Aleister Crowley who had a reputation of notoriety in the occult societies of the early 20th century. Your Supernatural character was likely named after him too.
Oh, that's a fun bit of trivia about the name Crowley. I'll have to look him up. :)
I haven't seen The Omen or read the Bible so, yeah, I'm sure I'll miss some things because of that. :-/
Actually, the Supernaturally Crowley, and some of their beginning concepts of angels like their not needing to sleep or eat came from the book Good Omens. I think it was Eric Kripke who said that but I'm not 100% sure of the source.
Every time I think of how to pronounce Crowley's (on GO) name, I actually always think back to the famous Aleister Crowley quote: 'Those who think me holy, call me CROW-ley; those who think me foul-y, call me CROU-ley'. It's an easy rhyme to remember.
@@NicoleM_radiantbaby I never knew that! Thanks you for that!
@@lemonfreshrob Sure! I had some friends who were OTO (the Ordo Templi Orientis -- the modern version of Crowley's hermetic magic group/society) and they always said that quote. 😀
this video just showed up on my home page bcz im a huge good omens fan!! i rly like ur commentary, i hope u keep up with this series :) episode 3 will grab your attention if your favorite aspect right now is aziraphale and crowleys relationship
Thank you so much for this feedback! :)
yes please watch more! I love this show so much! plus it would be amazing to get to see you react to it!!
Thank you so much for this feedback! :)
Please give Good Omens a chance, it's a fantastic show. It comes across as quite silly and hard to follow at first if you go in blind, but it's worth sticking through. When I first watched the pilot around when it came out, I wasn't very interested either, but I gave it another chance and was pleasantly surprised. Like you, I'm a very character-focused person when it comes to tv shows, and this show does not disappoint in that area, especially with the two mains. Without giving anything away, season two delves even more into the characters, and in my opinion that makes it worth sticking with.
I feel it’s wrong calling it a pilot as it wasn’t it’s chapter 1 of a 6 part story so it’s not meant to been seen on its own, a pilot is a stand alone episode to show what the stow could be. This was meant to be a single series as it’s based on a book my Terry Pratchett and Neil Gainman, series 2 has been but together from notes for a second book that was never finished due to Terry Pratchett sadly passing away.
It’s worth sticking with it to get the full story, as it plays out like a novel.
That is a very valid point, but definitely not something I would've been aware of beforehand since I tend to go into shows with very little information. It's also more nuanced than a simple RUclips series or individual reaction needs to be.
Well he change his name originaly was Crawley that was too much related with the snakes and he change just one letter and be Crowley that is related with crows or ravens.
Oh please do more. It's one of my favourite series ever (it and Heartstopper are the two shows whose return I was most looking forward to for the latter half of this year, to the point I'd forgotten about Doctor Who, which is something).
Thanks for this feedback! Another reactor whose Supernatural reactions I watch (ky nicole) was doing Heartstopper, but I had never heard of it before that and still don't really know what it is.
PLEASE continue, I can't wait! I love your reaction!!
Thank you for this feedback! So glad you enjoyed the reaction! :)
@@BritanyBinges :DDD no problem!
As someone who loves your Doctor Who reactions and Good Omens I am so excited you're reacting to this! I hope you're able to stick with it. I love Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett so I pretty much loved it from the start as I read the book years ago before this came out. So I can't really comment on not liking it at first and it growing on me but I will say it does pick up the pace as the season goes along. It just has a slow start.
Also I wanted to add just in case you're interested, Neil Gaiman was heavily involved in the production. Terry has passed away and it was his dying wish to have the book made into a film adaptation and to have it done well. It's something they both had been trying to do for years. Immediately after the funeral Neil went home and started writing the first episode. His one goal with this was to make Terry happy. So in a way this series is a tribute to his dear friend ❤
Though I *really* struggled with the premise of the biblical timeline, at the insistence of a friend I stuck with it and was rewarded. A large part of it was due to David Tennant and Michael Sheen's performances as their characters do various shenanigans in their attempt to prevent the end of the world.
Def keep watching
Definitely worth continuing with this one, it's a pretty densely packed story but you seem to be following it so far. There's a surprising amount of character development yet to come, and great new characters that you haven't even met yet. I loved season 2 but I don't know how everyone else feels about it, so if you decide to only do one season (or hold off on season two) that would be fine. Season one has an ending to the story just like the book so it's safe to stop watching there if you like.
Without spoiling anything this is a miniseries based on a book. There are a lot of time jumps and things seem disjointed at times, but everything kind of makes sense at the end of the season.
The basic plot for this episode - the satanic nuns, swapping of the American Diplomat's new born son for the baby Antichrist, raising of the child by a satanic Nanny - was based on the 1976 horror film "The Omen". Though in "The Omen" the switch goes off without any hitch unlike in "Good Omens".
There is a Doctor Who connection between "Good Omens" and the 1976 "The Omen" with David Tennant (the tenth doctor) starring in "Good Omens" and Patrick Troughton (the second doctor) appearing in a fairly major role as the priest father Brennan in "The Omen".
Oh, interesting! I've never seen The Omen and I didn't know that's what it's about so I didn't realize there were some similarities.
I also had no clue Patrick Troughton was in it.
You should totally complete the first season. I think there is only like 6 episodes and they’re awesome. Smart, funny a lil sexy…. David has an amazing walk in this one. 🥰
Michael Sheen was house in the doctors wife.
I've only seen that episode once and it was quite a while ago so I don't remember too much from it. :/
*sees show's title and first episode of first season
*checks date of upload: more recent than season 2 release
*clicks, intrigued
*spots padalecki-ackles portraits in background
*notes to self: "ohh this'll be fun"
Now sure if you recognize my favorite nun in the group here. She played Chloe’s mother in the Dr Who episode Fear Her. The one where the little girl would draw things that would disappear and be stuck in the drawing. This is part of why I live British shows so much. You can actually make a game out of it. I’m guessing Brits think our Six degrees of separation from Kevin Bacon game was just silly. They’re all connected over there. I love it.
You are in for a treat~ i hope you enjoy it~
Would love to see you continue this!
Hey I have been looking for reactions to Good Omens. Im sure you’ll enjoy it more as it goes episode 3 is where most people get hooked. And season 2 was stellar. Good thing is that both seasons are 6 episodes each. It’s a quick watch but I’m dying to get a season 3
I personnally like the season 2 better than the season 1
That seems to be the case for a lot of people and that's very encouraging. :)
This was almost as good as the book. I was pleasantly surprised.
PLEASE well worth it 2 series...so far...great reaction
In case it helps - and I hope you have patience - I found Series One "ok" but it was worth it for Series (or Season) 2 which was sublime!!!!
i love the good omens, both seasons. please continue to watch them
I have! :) I've currently recorded through episode 1x4 and the full reaction for it will be going out on Patreon this Saturday.
The comments on this got a little more spoilery than I prefer so I've decided to finish recording all of seasons 1 and 2 before putting episode 1x2 on RUclips. But, I'm hoping to be finished with the recordings by the end of next week and should hopefully have episode 1x2 here on RUclips the following week.
This such a great and very funny show I think you will enjoy it
It's definitely funny. But, funny isn't enough for to stick with a show. I have to be able to get emotionally invested in the characters and what they're going through. I didn't really get that in this episode, but it seems like that might change throughout the season.
I was about to ask you to react to good omens 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️
What perfect timing, then. :)
So weird that literally just watched this yesterday haha
Haha! Perfect timing. :)
Yes
Please keep going!! 😊
Thanks for this feedback! :)
Please watch more of this show it is really good and you’ll love the end of it!!!😁
Thanks for this feedback! :)
I hope you enjoy the rest of the series, it's a fun ride.
Also that is the most damming indictment of pilot episodes I've ever heard (considering they are meant to be what sells the show)
Well, the most important thing for me in any tv show is that I'm emotionally invested in the characters and feel a connection to them. It's rare a show can make me feel that way in just one episode. So, while I can very much enjoy a pilot, it doesn't usually suck me in.
This show is a pretty slow burn. It really picks up probably at the end of episode 2. The two actors Michael Sheen and David Tennant were not good friends before this show was taped. They were acquaintances. They have become good friends after being on this show
You’re going to Love episode 3 🎉
Oo! Looking forward to this, I think you’ll really like this, can’t wait!
What it’s going to be? What it’s going to be?! Well, it’s… wait… you said don’t tell you. Damn!
Anyway, I think you should keep watching. 😉
lol Thanks for this feedback (and for not spoiling anything)! :)
Love the original book, and the TV adaption is great. I'm currently watching Season 2, which was filmed locally in places, so it's spotting familiar sights.
That's always fun! Not too many things have been filmed in places I've lived, but I visit a lot of filming locations for my favorite tv shows/movies when I travel. :)
Would I like you to continue with Good Omens? Is that a trick question? 🙂 The answer is "yes of course" - it's a great great show.
11:18 He was channeling Russell Brand right here. If you look away when he goes off about bananas, it’s Russell. I swear!
Edit; Oh Gid, it just hit me. I would actually pay to see Russell Brand play The Doctor. Even as a short spoof. But he would be so much fun!
Welcome to Good Omens! 🎉
It starts slow but gets better!
Good to know! :)
The show was great if not amazing, likely as it was written as a kids show & not for adults & has it flaws but there are some really great scenes so I hope you watch it all.
I hope you continue. The series is just 12 it episodes at the moment
Thanks for this feedback! :)
Hella excited to see you react to this!!! Between s2 of this and s2 of Heartstopper, it has been an excellent couple weeks lol.
I can't wait to see your reaction to this!
you should definetly continue reacting to season 1 and then season 2. I love this show!
I'm going to be continuing! :)
The full reactions to the rest of the show will be going out on Patreon starting this Saturday. I want to get all of seasons one and two recorded before I start releasing them here on RUclips because I've already gotten quite a few spoiler-ish comments so I want to try to avoid more of that. So, it might be two or three weeks, but the rest of them will be coming.
Stick with this, it's great! Only 6 episodes!
Yeah, the fact this first season is only six episodes definitely makes me more likely to keep going with it. :)
I chose to watch this show because it was an adaption of a Terry Pratchett book, one of the better (or best, even) writers in the genre of the past century. I really enjoyed it, hopefully you will too :)
I hope you love this! The book’s also completely worth reading!!
It's not really the style of book I tend to read (more into YA romance/fantasy and dark romance), but I've seen through episode four so far. I wouldn't say I'm hooked just yet, but it's definitely an enjoyable show and I can feel myself getting more and more drawn in with each episode.
I want to see more❤
Thanks for this feedback! :)
In all honestly, the CGI is not my favorite thing for the first season- i am a fan of the book, so I enjoyed many nods twords things only book readers would catch- So im very curious to see someone's reaction without knowing anything. I really hope it will grow on you and that you enjoy it. The season is only 6 episodes long, so if you don't care for it at least you won't have waisted too much time. ^^
Stop thinking of this as a pilot episode, or as a multi season TV show.
This episode is best described as part 1 of a six part miniseries adaptation of the novel _Good Omens_ by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett.
wow you are late to the party. But welcome to GO fandom or something
The humor is very British. Either you like it or you don't. Seems you're maybe in the last category
I read the book back when it was first released and a few times more in the following years. Then i forgot all about it cause... life.
When this show came out i did not know it was a book. So i kept telling my now grown up son. "I have seen this before. I know what happens next" I could not understand it because it was a brand new show and not a remake. Later Of cause i realized it was my old bellowed book.
This show is the best most faithful book to TV or movie i have EVER in my long life seen. Neil Gaiman did a wonderful loving memorial for his friend Terry Pratchett when he made it.
BTW your resistance to the name Crowley used here. This is the original. The book Good Omens was released in May 1990 long before Supernatural was a stray thought in its autors brain. So it is SN who stole it from GO not the other way around.
Amazing series.
I had fun with it... especially season two. :) I'm doing some traveling this month, but I'll be continuing the Good Omens reactions on here starting in December.
@@BritanyBinges I like all the Terry Pratchett films too, especially The Colour of Magic. Definitely worth watching
Your reaction are so cool lmao when do you react to episode 2 this is so cool
So glad you're enjoying the reactions! I've already filmed the reactions for all of seasons one and two. Episodes 1x2 and 1x3 are already available to channel members. They'll start be released to non-channel members once I get episodes 1x4-1x6 edited.
Ooo I can't wait to watch you watch this!
So glad you're excited! :)
My schedule's gone a little crazy, so I'm running behind on getting them all recorded and started here on YT.
I just released the full reaction for episode 2x2 this morning, so we're getting there. :)
maybe you'll find pronouncing the English "Crowley" easier once you know that the SPN "Krahley" was named after this one ;)
Love the opinions and your reaction, keep it up, you're in for a RIDE girl!
Actually, once the pronunciation of his name was specifically talked about in the show, it stuck. I'm a stickler for using people's preferred names so it would've been pretty hypocritical of me to not pronounce it the way he wanted it pronounced. lol
I finished up season one on Patreon last week and I'm hoping to be able to get all of season two recorded by the end of this week so I can start bringing the rest of the reactions to RUclips. :)
This is probably the loveliest and best "reason" I've ever heard (no shade to people who still can't remember names bc of nd issues or whatever) but this...wow...I don't know why this moved me so much, probably because I rarely see it on youtube of all the spaces.
Thank you so much for this little spark of joy and I really look forward to seeing the rest of it soon (and S2 - once you got into it, you won't be able to stop :))
As for Patreon: There are so many great youtubers, artists, writers that deserve support - as is, I'm currently living out of my mum's fridge for most of the second half of the month so...
If I'll ever win the jackpot or make it big, y'all get a subscription, but for now, I'm afraid, my meagre praise will have to enough. and maybe the fact that you make people happy? :)
you certainly made me happy today
and I can't wait for you to make me happy with another video...if you want to.
Have a lovely weekend x
I hope you enjoy. I found that I had to think while watching the show, also trying to keep attention for the lighter humorous. Am I starting to go crazy, in two minds? I enjoyed the series and also enjoyed the second. Have fun!
I think you're looking at this as a TV show that needs to get the viewers to get made, and uses a pilot to reel people in. But it's not a TV show in that sense. It's a miniseries. A very different vibe than a regular TV show, there is no pilot, it's the first chapter.
I've just discovered your channel and I've been watching your Doctor Who reactions, so this is my first time seeing your photo ops and SPN merch! I love them! Do you still go to conventions? I'm going to 2 Creation ones this year...
Right I'll watch the reaction now lol
What's funny is, I saw your username before I read your comment and immediately was like, "Ooooh, they must be a Supernatural fan!" lol
I don't have any conventions on the books at the moment, but that's entirely because of finances. I would go to multiple conventions a year if I could afford it. I'm dying to go the one in Austin this fall because it's their "hometown" one and JDM is going to be there. Which ones are you going to?
@@BritanyBinges I’m actually going to Austin for the whole weekend and New Jersey just for the Sunday (I’m seeing Kansas in Long Island as well that trip).
I’ve also got a couple of UK conventions to.
Supernatural is the basis of my other channel (PurpleNurpleSPN) with lots of fan edits. I wanted something that said Supernatural to fans but can be generic too. And this is my new channel for reviews and reactions lol
