Ah, thats a great idea! Maybe if I do a part two I'll include it :) Thank you! Also that last one haha :D I've never seen that as a tag but now I'll search for it!

I'm gonna be so brazen as to point you in the direction I did another commenter, The Magic Trick You Didn't See theory on Season 2. It speculates on why it might be season 2 is such a fanfic trope fest. I should just make this a comment on the actual video 😅
@@DiaArtCreativity I've seen so many people on Tumblr writing "angle" for "angel" lately that I feel like they're either making a show reference or Tumblr has been infested by demons (either of which could make sense, I suppose--also, typos).

For season 3, I want the tags: BAMF Crowley, BAMF Aziraphale, Major Character Death **cough** Metatron **cough**, Amnesia, Major Character Injury, Flaming Sword, Memories, Hurt/Comfort, Regret, and FINALLY: Angst with a Happy Ending 😭
Watched "Tolkien" today and shouted at "metatron" when he showed up. Dude will always be them from now on. He's not a villain in Tolkien, but he is. He very much is. I usually am pretty good at keeping actors separate from their roles, but maybe it's just too fresh yet. Similar to Umbridge. Ms. Staunton is a fantastic actress, but it took a bit to shake it.
@emilyray9438 Oh absolutely, he's become the same type of character as Umbridge, a villainous role that is so convincing that it's hard to seperate them from the actor
Derek Jacobi also played the Master on Doctor Who- it was only for a few minutes on the show before he regenerated into John Simm, but he‘d previously done an audiobook or something.
Oblivious Aziraphale, Aziraphale is bad at feelings, enemies to lovers (ineffable bureaucracy), mutual pining, everyone knows they're in love, Bentley ships it etc
GO S2 proves what Michael Sheen says about fanfiction- and what we've been trying to say about fanfiction this whole time: fanfiction is a beautiful expression of love and art ☺️😊
Quite right, quite right! Sorry not sorry...so true! 🤣 I would maybe add: POV - Outsider (Nina "six shots of Espresso", for example), Notice me Senpei (first scene), Dom Aziraphale (apology dance lol), Amnesia (Gabriel), and... First Kiss 😢.
Oh, yeah, there were some things I didn't include. For example the whole 40s flashback or Aziraphale driving the Bentley or the Bentley having it's own mind😀 But I didn't want this to get too long. If this video does good maybe I'll do a part two 🙂 Thank you for your comment!
this is how i'm learning tags, I love this and I was hoping for a video that would explore exactly what each scene had in relation to fanfiction tags. I had no idea Jane Austen was used as a tag??? 😭 That's hilarious.
My bestie the usage of tags is varied and unknowable. I've been using ao3 for years and to this very day I still find tags I've never seen nor thought existed. I remember the day I learned that "accidental baby acquisition" is a popular tag 😂😂😂😂
this is my favorite good omens compilation, the tags appearing was just- the timing was so right. I was surprised “married & kids” didn’t pop up at the end of the Bentley bickering, though. absolutely hilarious
i love how nina didnt take a second to even mention wife or girlfriend when asking crowley if he had a partner just straight up "do you have a husband? or boyfriend?" XD
Oh, I love all the "no beta we die like-" tags 😀 I found another one that was like "no beta we die like the I love you in Crowleys mouth" and I was like TOO SOON, man😂
I like when Aziraphale tells Crowley" I'm borrowing the car," not "may I borrow your car?" More back-bone Aziraphale- that's the spirit! Nicely made as usual.❤❤
I NEVER REALIZED BUT WHEN CROWLEY TALKSING ABT LOOKING INTO EACH OTHERS EYES AND BEING SHELTERED WHEN ITS RAINING LITERALLY REMINDS ME OF THE FIRST SCENE (IN EP1 S1) OF CROWLEY AND AZIRAPHALE WHERE THEY TALKING ABOUT THE FLAMING SWORD AND AZIRAPHALE COVERS HIM WHEN THE FIRST, THE FIRST THUNDERSTORM HAPPENED???
I love how everybody watching Good Omens 2 just decided that the meat eating scene is basically porn. Which is completely weird but also very nice and accurate.
the moment the kiss scene came on i had to physically back away from my laptop cuz i didnt know if i could handle it again. also love this video sm it was hilarious- i laughed out loud so many times
Am I the only one that sensed Raphael hinting this season?…if not that then at the very least Crowley was an important Angel before he fell hinting?? (I’m talking about the dominions and thrones or higher scene with Muriel…also…he said “let there be light”?!?!)
@@tymondabrowski12 just wanted to show that he has as much similarities to him. I think there are 3 more Archangels that never got any names. So maybe he was one of them. And personally, I'd prefer that idea, as it'd make him kind of special.
@@ninastarsky7321 Is 'first kiss worst kiss" a tag? (Not casting aspersions on the quality per se, but that was a kiss of pain, grief, and desperation.)
@@HuntingViolets I honestly havn't seen a tag like this. But when season 3 comes out and we get another kiss then maybe I could make a video like this one and tag it Second kiss 😀
I woke up from a dead sleep last night with the thought of them being turned into humans in season 3 and living out the rest of their human lives together.
That's been my dread for a while. That Gaiman solves the whole Angel and Demon getting together quandry by making mortal. And after all those millennia wasted when they could've been together, they only get a handful of decades as mortals before it's over.
@@emmahealy4863I disagree. As mortals they would only have a few decades together before death. And if they were given immortal life, after death they are going to *different* places -Az to heaven, Cowley to hell. Forever.
That would be pretty sad. For two immortal beings to be turned into humans (with the lifespan of only a few decades) would be the same as outright execution. And after their human lives come to an end, their souls would go to different places (Crowley to Hell, Aziraphale to Heaven) and they would never see each other again, for the rest of eternity. Sounds like a very cruel punishment to me. And Good Omens is supposed to be a comedy... If God would decide to be creative and fun with the punishment for their meddling in her affairs, I think she would put Aziraphale and Crowley in charge of the Earth. "If you like Earth so much and believe you can do better than me, you can have it, now you're the ones who are responsible, good luck." That's if she views their meddling as worthy of punishment, which may not necessarily be the case.
Perfection? PERFECTION! Thank you so much for the edit! It was really amazing and I had a lot of fun trying to anticipate the next trope/tag XD Loved it!
![crowley and aziraphale being silly for 10 minutes [not so] straight :)](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/DeseygH_7l4/mqdefault.jpg)
The lack of communication, but effort was made with the kiss scene made me chuckle
it made me SOBBB
not me m8 i screamed
I laughed hard 😂
"Lack of communication but effort was made" is the perfect way to describe the final scene between Aziraphale and Crowley
"Denial of feelings" and "mutual pining" and "married for 6000 years but they don't know that" 😂
"Unresolved Sexual Tension" for the eating scene got me
Got me laid out dead, man, it's too real 💀
"Might get explicit later no actual smut" lol
Might get explicit later...no smut tho 😂
you've seen 'angst with a happy ending' but have you ever seen 'fluff with an unhappy ending'? that was season 2
Too right
no you are onto something, I really believe Neil grew tired of the classic stadard tags in the fanfics and decided to greate a new one
Excellent, I'd like to suggest - "Aziraphale is bad at feelings", "Sentient Bentley" and maybe "Crowley is a pine tree in sunglasses".
Ah, thats a great idea! Maybe if I do a part two I'll include it :) Thank you! Also that last one haha :D I've never seen that as a tag but now I'll search for it!
CROWLEY IS A PINE TREE IN SUNGLASSES
@@ninastarsky7321 I thought I had seen that but it might be something else ☺️
@@Dimeiswhere Agreed that this is absolute gold
So, Aziraphale is pining for a pine tree? I *see* it! 💜🌈😈😇
I'm shocked that 'The Bentley as a Child of Divorce' has been unmentioned since I've seen quite a few permutations of this tag.
I spent my whole first viewing being like: Neil, my love, you've just written fan fiction of your work. (Yes, we all love it)
I mean the actual good omens book itself is a fanfic (canon compliant) to the bible so..
I highly suggest The Magic Trick You Didn't See theory about season 2~ It' exactly goes "this is all like a fanfic - why?? because THISSS" Very interesting.
@@Reicha Yeah it's really good I've read it twice :)
@@Reichaexact!
@@azcdtixsso this is fanfic-ception??🤯
The scene where Aziraphale is telling Crowley that he IS gonna take the car and Crowley should look after Gabriel should be labeled “Dom Aziraphale”
Iconic 😂
*wheeeeeze* 😂slight Dom/Sub
or Aziraphale is a bastard worth knowing
That and the scene where crowley does the apology dance and Azi says "very nice" WITH THAT TONE AND LOOK ON HIS FACE
@@liaspooked4980 facts indeed!!
It's the *_Lack of Communication, but effort was made_* for me😭
the Jane Austen-freeform im dead 💀
No that took me OUT
"I am about to ruin your lives" - Neil, probably
A little further into the first meeting, I think we have some "Aziraphale fell first" going on.
This was recurring thought as I watched S2! Neil Gaiman woke up, chose fanfiction as a setting, and just went to town! LOL! It was amazing!
Go2 really is an unfinished fic that got dropped into semi-permanent haitus right at the climax
I swear if they ever update with a chapter title going 'Update' or 'Announcement' I'm going to fricking sob again 😭
5:31 after aziraphale says "Castilian balls" you can hear crowley say a small "oh" in the background and that somehow makes me unbearably happy
I hadn't noticed that before!! That made me snort with laughter.
Cotillion balls. (That shouldn't affect your happiness, though.)
That scene should have been accompanied with a Balls -freeform tag 😂
And the way he was like "well-" when Aziraphale mentioned the balls lmaoo
Suggestion for the end “author regrets nothing” followed immediately by “author regrets everything”
at 00:25 I was like oh sure Aziraphale's first love and then I realized- no, the VERY first love in the universe-
oh OHHHH this one is heartwarming
"Hurt no comfort"
"I'm about to ruin your life"
- Neil Gaiman
Also "Everyone sees it but them" FOR REAL
Also featuring "pre-fall Crowley" and "poisoning/intoxication"
yknow now that i think about it, this being organised in this way, makes it seems like theres a way to interpret this season as an intentional commentary on fanfiction. on like meta narratives and stuff. like fandoms generally. theres literally a pride and prejudice au. and a coffee shop. and characters shipping/trying to create scenarios for other characters to get together. something something forced to do stuff something something the kiss wasn't about love something something free will something something heaven and hell demanding things be how they are smth smth
The matchmaking is more like _Emma,_ but that, interestingly, goes unmentioned.
Not to forget "surrender the angle". The whole misspelling part could also be a commentary on Fanfics 😂

the "Hurt No Comfort" TOOK ME OUT 😭😭😭😭
It felt so weird that they gave us what we wanted.... that now that I think about it, that ending was coming 😭😭😭
Yes, we can't be happy for too long 😅
This is why we can’t have nice things
So we all are agreed season 2 feels like fanfiction 😂
This got me absolutely cackling! I was half expecting a 'The Bentley Ships It' thrown in there too 😂 Thanks for sharing!
"She had BALLS" sounds so fvcking funny out of context 😳🤭🤣
"she had balls."
"well-"
"cotillion balls!"
"oh."
will never cease to make me cackle out loud
Oblivious Aziraphale, Aziraphale is bad at feelings, enemies to lovers (ineffable bureaucracy), mutual pining, everyone knows they're in love, Bentley ships it etc
Gods I wish Neil Gaiman could write and/or produce all my fanfiction from now on
this feel like a fluff with sad ending
Honestly I read so many Good Omes fanfiction on ao3 and recognized so many scenes and dialoues?? They read all the fanfics I swear
don't forget the GO-specific "Gabriel Amnesia AU," "Crowley Was Raphael," and last but not least "Beelzebub/Gabriel"
"Lack of communication,but efforts were made" followed by "What are feelings" i know the sentiment is sad, but it made me laugh hard 😂
I want a part two of this so bad, it was hilarious!😊
Thank you! Maybe I'll make it :)
Same!

"literally the slowest of burns" made me snort because. it literally is the slowest burn it is possible to be
