Important UPDATE/CORRECTION: The Graphic Novel release date has been moved to spring 2025, due to health issues experienced by the artist, Colleen Doran. She will still be at Ineffable Con 5, however, so we can ask her for details, then!
Thanks a lot for all your updates and videos. As my oracle for everything good omens, I'd like to know your opinion about the change of characters some of the cast play between s1 and s2. Nina, Maggie and Shax all play different roles and there's no actual explanation for that but nobody in the fandom considers this to be fishy or a clue of something bigger going on. I can't help but think there's something there. What do you think?
I'm so glad Maggie's actress and her are both autistic because I have autism to! Ps: my birthday is in July which makes me so happy that I'll have that and the graphic novel to look forward to!
Does anyone else think that Maggie perhaps has a touch of dyslexia as well? I bring it up because she misspells "urgency" as "ugrency" in her written note to Aziraphale in season 2. My late best friend was dyslexic and often misspelled words though she was very intelligent.
I have the Headcannon that the "J." that is just a "J." is in fact not "just a J.". As it is likely that Crowley does not remember some stuff from before Falling (like Furfur), perhaps he does not remember his own name from before Falling but the J. sounds a little too familiar even though he cannot understand very well why, and he decided to keep it around (but as he does not remember the whole thing aka. the whole name, it is "just a J." by now).
Interestingly, Aziraphale's outfits are quite fashionable (if eccentric for most of the 20th century) up to the 1960s holy water exchange. Both he and Crowley wear bits and bobs from previous eras mixed up pretty much consistently (although it's less obvious in Crowley's wardrobe), but at some point in the last quarter of the 20th century, Aziraphale sort of... reverts back to earlier stuff. Makes me wonder why.
Hmmm… That’s a really interesting observation. He’s always dressed so fastidiously in the past (“I have standards, you know!”), that I wondered why he became so attached to the threadworn vest as it keeps getting more shabby. I wonder if there’s a bigger reason.
In Neil's s1 FAQ on Tumblr, he clarifies that the name Crowley was based on Aleister Crowley, but that the addition of 'Anthony' as his first name was based on the nursery rhyme, "partly to help people pronounce Crowley's name right." Coleen Doran had to bump the publishing date of the graphic novel back a year due to health issues. It's currently set for spring 2025 (per April 16 update on the Kickstarter page).
In the Leonardo Da Vinci sketch of the mona lisa in Crowley’s flat, It’s addressed to “My friend Antonio” I believe. I think it’s fun to think that It’s almost always been Anthony, but he decided to keep it a secret because of the nursery rhyme. (and maybe his relatability to it)
That's right! It also turns out that Rhyme in other forms goes back to at least the 16th century, and probably further back in spoken or sung form, so he could have still heard it there, before meeting Da Vinci. Isn't it Odd that Aziraphale hadn't heard it until 1941, when Crowley had been using it for 400+ years at least?
That Neil clip is SO frustrating, because after he said Aziraphale broke everybody's hearts, everybody groaned, and then he said. "I'm sorry! Perhaps he will ..." then was interrupted by an audience member and never finished the sentence! I'd like to think it was going to be something like, "Perhaps he will unbreak them in s3."
I chose and voted, but I also believe that they should be voted as a couple and not individually, they were both perfect in embodying their characters, enhancing and completing each other like yin and yang do. Thanks 4 the news!
A demon he would a-woo-ing go Whether his Mother would let him or no 💞🥰 Thanks for sharing all these wonderful tidbits- you and your team are amazing! I especially love hearing about Maggie 💖 I learned that I’m autistic quite late in life too, and it’s both comforting and validating to know that both the actor and her character represent us so beautifully. No wonder I’m so drawn to on-screen “Maggie” and her sweet, quirky ways!✨
1:58 still pretty sure the J is just a J or rather a Hieroglyph version of a J. since the J looks like a Snake. Coincidence? I don't think so. I think it was just Pratchett and/or Gaiman being cleaver on us. Again
@@delaneybenlon6106 could be. But first Movie came out in 1962. Would "I don't read books" name himself after a book hero? Have you looked up the J Hieroglyph?
Not sure if this helps, but you can vote daily until voting closes! Depending on when you see this comment you potentially have time to vote for David and Michael ❤
You know, I think with the poem, it could be that Neil and Terry got Crowley’s first name from it and then they decided that Crowley himself got his name from there as well. It’s the most adorable little bit of info that our favorite demon (who is a terrible demon) loves a poem about love. All I want in season 3 is for Aziraphale to give Crowley a hug and a fabulous kiss. ❤ Poor Crowley needs some love lol.
I have to rewatch series 1 but I'd swear i saw "for mio amigo antonio" written by Leonardo on the Davinci's drawing he's got on the wall so he used the name Antonio before the XIX century. I need to rewatch the series to make sure I haven't imagined this, though...
You are correct, he must have used the name! interestingly, A Frog He Would A Wooing Go was not written in the 1800's, it was just written down then. There are even written records of it dating back to the 1500's, so the rhyme itself, in spoken or sung form, goes back further than that. IT's so old, it's sort of controversial when it first came into existence. But it could still totally make sense that Crowley got it from hearing the rhyme. Weird that Aziraphale had not heard it before, if Crowley was using it as far back as the late 1400's!
There is another St. Antonius who has been much more popular in Bavaria/Austria than the Antonius who had to deal with demons. People addressed this Antonius to find LOST items or a partner/true LOVE. Also in other catholic areas this Antonius has got quite a romantic job. There is even such a thing as a pilgrimage to Padua only for singles who are trying to find a spouse. So when Crowly introduced himself as „Anthony“, I (knowing Bavarian tradition) understood it like he has been trying to find something (somebody?) valuable he feared that was lost. It didn‘t occur to me at all to see it in any different way! 😊
I love your videos. Your monitoring social media and the internet in general for the tiniest crumbs of info on the franchise, merch, cast, crew, and fandom is hugely appreciated and fascinating
Thanks for the heads up about the Tell-Tale TV awards. Good Omens is second in the fantasy series category at the moment - so close! Also David and Michael are currently right next to each other as second and third which is cute :)
I thought it was after Saint Anthony (who was supposedly tempted by demons) Granted the idea of Crowley tempting St Anthony, Then years later panicking trying to pick a human name only to pick Anthony would make a cool fanfic idea
Maggie Service has joined our autism ranks! Lol. No wonder I vibed so hard with her. ❤ I was a huge fan of that storybook when I was little. Now I can't get Aziraphale mouse and Crowley frog out of my head. Though, speaking of another drog related story, hehe, Crowley could totally be a frog prince. 😂 Another good video. ❤
I'm a Hellhound Tier myself, plus some additional stuff I ordered on the side XD I jumped on the graphic novel less than an hour after it started, and 30 min after it was started it had almost reached its goal, and I asked how long it had been up for and Neil answered me on Twitter :D
@@Sendarya I literally couldn't stop myself when I found out about the novel :D I am still watching season 1 and 2 of Good omens on a regular basis, so it have yet to loose its hold on me! XD And I have been subscribed to you sense you started the Good Omens videos I believe o.o Lots of interesting information in a format that's easy to understand and remember! I have ADHD and Autism so normally a lot of information gets lost for me, but the way you do it(and the subject) makes it easier for me to retain as well as it being so much fun to listen to!
I’ve made sure to vote! I’ll do David today and Michael tomorrow. Also, if it’s true that Crowley himself took his name from that nursery rhyme, that’s absolutely adorable 😂
I always assumed it (Crowley's name) was related to Aleister Crowley, beginning with an A and all and having 3 syllables though I'd rather he was named after the frog.
Crowley's name, Crowley is based on Alistair Crowley. It is only the Anthony part that he got from a Nursery Rhyme, somewhere in the late 1800's, presumably.
I was needing another video from you. Seemed like too long. I need you to sort through what ever information is out there and make sense of it for us. ❤️
Great video and research as always thanks! Personally I think the authors had it in their mind that Crowley chose the name Anthony, it kind of fits with his personality. I hope we get an 1850s flashback that explains Aziraphale's really rather bitter comment "oh of course you do" during the fight with Crowley in 1863. I can't imagine that meeting is the first time they met after Crowley got back out of hell and I wonder if there's more to that. But I think we will definitely get something in the 1940s that explains the nightingales line, which you theorised brilliantly on but I think they will & should explain it.
I agree. Based on the wording in the diary, which was written only a short time after the events in 1827, how would he know it would be quite some time, unless he'd already seen him again? It sort of doesn't make sense, lol. I think he saw him again within the year.
I was about to complain that Walker Scobell is also in the running but then I realized I have time to vote three times :D (also at the time of this comment, he and Michael and David are the top three anyway lol)
wait wait wait…I thought Crowley’s name was based on Alistair Crowley… Either way, I now am convinced that Crowley chose it because of the nursery rhyme. I listened to it several times, looked at the words, and it’s literally about a frog who meets a mouse & tries to impress her/“woo” her, but a cat comes along and it’s kittens attack the mouse and the rat (which the frog was traveling with), and then the frog gets eaten by a “lily white duck”. Frogs are associated with grossness, unpleasantness and witchcraft (spells/potions often require a toad/frog or some body part of it) - Crowley thinks he’s perceived as gross/tainted/evil. Mice are associated with meekness, not calling attention to themselves, being sneaky - Aziraphale is, on the surface, rather docile, a bit placid and non-confrontational. Crowley is constantly trying to woo Aziraphale. The cat/kittens could be seen as “societal expectations”/what Aziraphale and Crowley “should” be doing, which the mouse (Aziraphale) falls victim to (he LEFT) and just when Crowley (the frog) thinks he’s safe, a “LILY WHITE” duck” swallows him whole. The duck isn’t a brown duck or a grey duck, or even just a normal white duck; it’s LILY WHITE, the purest, whitest white, so I’m guessing God? I think maybe this scenario playing out is what Crowley fears. Or maybe I’m just over analyzing like I usually do.
Crowley's name, Crowley is based on Alistair Crowley. It is only the Anthony part that he got from a Nursery Rhyme, somewhere in the late 1800's, presumably.
David is in 2nd and Michael is in 4th - The actor from Percy Jackson is in 1st and from Outlander is in 3rd and while they are great, do we really want our Good Omens actors BEHIND them?????
I know hundreds of people have already spotted it, but... when Crowley and Aziraphale are with Shakespeare in the Globe, Crowley says a line from "Antony and Cleopatra" that orinally goes: Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale / Her infinite variety." Which is supposed to show how beautiful, smart and intriguing Cleopatra was for ... Mark Antony and, well, other men too, who were infatuated by her. Crowley clearly says HIS instead of HER :) funny bit is that this scene takes place a few years before the play about Mark Antony and Cleopatra was actually seen on stage for the first time. I'm more and more moved by how Crowley shows subtle signs of his love throughout centuries. At first watching I could not see it all. And I guess there is still so much more to be seen. So.. maybe his names also comes a bit from the play? Also... one funny detail about the scene in the theatre is when Aziraphale miracles himself a coin to pay for the grapes (we can hear the miracle sound that is always there when either of the two performs a miracle), the same second Crowley appears in the background. As if summoned ;)
Aww, Aziraphale miracles up some wealth in more ways than one, how sweet. I'm with you entirely. I didn't pick up the subtle romance and love the first time. Now I can't figure out how I ever missed it. It's in practically every interaction. ❤️ Also great now about the subtle dialog change from Crowley. Of course DT still delivers it like the pro he is.
@@Sendarya I'm so used to weird maps of Britain and Northern Ireland without the rest of Ireland that I have to wonder, who decided that Ireland was exempt? Or maybe the Heavenly Host plan to stage a trail version of Armageddon there first, to make sure it will work.
Just a little note - the prices you are quoting are in GBP, or British pounds (£) and not Euros (€) - they are similar in value but not the same, currently £1 = €1.17. Not meaning to judge, just a little clarification!
@@Sendarya You're welcome, although the UK is not the only European country that doesn't use Euros - Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Switzerland (and others) also use their own currencies.
Frog he would a-whooing go sounds similar to a game david and kathrine tate once played while hosting the jonathan ross radio show. Frog he went a flirting.
@@Sendarya It’s an insider in the aro/ace community (that I’m part of). For some reason there are many memes about ace people invading Denmark and then taking over the world. No one really knows why, but it’s everywhere. I think it started on Reddit😅
Another amazing news source much more catered to me than the stuff on tv thats not so cheery. Thanks for all your hard work digging around for every detail we could possibly wish for. My now contented ✨mental health✨ thanks your graciously ❤
Important UPDATE/CORRECTION: The Graphic Novel release date has been moved to spring 2025, due to health issues experienced by the artist, Colleen Doran. She will still be at Ineffable Con 5, however, so we can ask her for details, then!
Bad news to hear about her health. But great for fans to order more books.

That would be soooo sweet if Crowley himself would pick the name from that rhyme! It does have so many parallels to their relationship story!

Ahh, ty for the update on the release date. I heard about her eye! I'll include that correction in the next video.

Mice are associated with meekness, not calling attention to themselves, being sneaky - Aziraphale is, on the surface, rather docile, a bit placid and non-confrontational.
Crowley is constantly trying to woo Aziraphale.
The cat/kittens could be seen as “societal expectations”/what Aziraphale and Crowley “should” be doing, which the mouse (Aziraphale) falls victim to (he LEFT) and just when Crowley (the frog) thinks he’s safe, a “LILY WHITE” duck” swallows him whole.

I'm wondering if they're going to change up Aziraphale's style now or if he'll be too sentimental to change it 🤔
That's a good question. It would be jarring to see him in some sort of modern suit in heaven!
@@Sendarya which means they'll probably do exactly that, and with a beard.

There is a petition out there somewhere!
I just have to say that that the sweet rhyme ends with a cat coming over to eat the mouse and the frog ended up eaten by a duck in the pond. Sorry...
Oh no!! Old nursery rhymes, wow.
Better not be foreshadowing.
Just a little note - the prices you are quoting are in GBP, or British pounds (£) and not Euros (€) - they are similar in value but not the same, currently £1 = €1.17. Not meaning to judge, just a little clarification!
Ah, thanks! I should have looked into that further. I forgot that the UK isn't using the same monetary unit as the rest of Europe!
@@Sendarya You're welcome, although the UK is not the only European country that doesn't use Euros - Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Switzerland (and others) also use their own currencies.
I voted michael sheen but ill prob vote david tennant tomorrow, david currently has 908 votes and michael has 900, (I was the 900th :3)
Ah, is it 1 per day? I will need to do the same. Wasn't about to vote for the one and not the other.
@@tracybartels7535 yeah 1 per day so we can vote equally
Voting each day for one of them is a brilliant solution!
@@Sendarya thank you!! I love your videos sm

7:06 Denmark is gone because the ace people destroyed it 😂
I'm sorry, what?
@@Sendarya It’s an insider in the aro/ace community (that I’m part of). For some reason there are many memes about ace people invading Denmark and then taking over the world. No one really knows why, but it’s everywhere. I think it started on Reddit😅
Another amazing news source much more catered to me than the stuff on tv thats not so cheery. Thanks for all your hard work digging around for every detail we could possibly wish for. My now contented ✨mental health✨ thanks your graciously ❤
