A pilot has been added to IMDB, it will be released in 2019, the cast is known.

P.S.: gentlemen, do you think I'll ruin watching the series if I read the book? Are there any unexpected plot twists?

@NeverLoved: The book was written by Neil Gaiman and Pratchett, the geniuses of fantasy, so I strongly advise you to read it. there are plot twists, it would be boring without it, although the narrative is rather not built on shocking.

@cinnamon88: I've already read Pratchett in its entirety, from January to March, it's impossible to tear myself away :) And Good Omens somehow missed out on a bunch of other books with co-authors that I skipped. I'm going to read Gaiman's works separately first, thank you.
UPD: Oh, did he write the American Gods? Then I'm definitely going to read tonight.

@DarvTormen: I wouldn't be surprised if the director is a fan of the tenth. But in general, if you think about it, stylistically the roles themselves are quite close, the tenth is still a trickster if you do not look purely at the external positive side.
PS Why not, I've reviewed the trailer ten times purely because of the doctor's intonation and the expression "-I don't even like you. - You do!"

The chemistry between Michael Sheen and David Tennant is amazing. During one episode, they changed the image several times, what will happen in the next series.
P.S. Jokes about dinosaurs and ducks in St. James's Park are particularly popular. And there's also a joke about the fact that people staged World War II, and Crowley reported that this and the Spanish plague were his handiwork.

It's not that I doubted it would be a cool series, but even I didn't expect it to be so good. I was pleasantly surprised by how accurately the creators managed to adapt the book. I was afraid in vain that the film adaptation would lose its trademark humor - the atmosphere is 100% conveyed. Tennant, as usual, is very cool, and Shin plays great.
I haven't watched the next episodes yet, but I can tell you for sure: It's going to be something amazing.

perhaps the only disadvantage of this series is the lack of a long monologue by drunken Crowley about infinity (about a bird that sharpens a diamond mountain with its beak, wink-wink, by the way, the twelfth Doctor had a similar monologue, that would be an interdimensional crossover)

I also like everything so far. The drunkenness of Crowley and Aziraphale and them in the images of the nanny and the gardener are scenes that I really wanted to see on the screen even while reading the book. Both Sheen and Tennant, in my opinion, did a great job!

A small interesting detail, for those who have not read the original - at the 28th minute, where a policeman (traffic warden) ignites a notebook, this is still the work of Aziraphale. There they have a small dialogue that the angel always thought that traffic wardens is an invention of the hellish side, and the demon answers him that he always thought that the angelic side tried.
Aziraphale is not as white and naive as it may seem)

Great first episode! I recently reread the original source, so I can say that everything was done very closely, and the series is sooooo Pratchett. It's a pity that the short dialogue about the policeman's notebook was removed, I really liked it, and the metamorphoses of Cerberus were shortened (probably, the budget was not enough). As it is, everything is cool, Sheen and Tennant are just fire (no one doubted it), and I'm just upset with the gardener and the babysitter! Seriously, I've read the book twice and it never occurred to me that Nanny Ashtaroth is Crowley in disguise! The only thing that confused the series was the quality of the graphics (on the other hand, the very tone of the narrative makes very realistic graphics optional) and Crowley's wings (someone explain to me why they were made black, otherwise I don't understand this particular series idea). I also really liked Frances McDormand's voice, even though I had imagined that the narrator would be a man. And after the plastic-white paradise and the angel on the gyro scooter, I remembered the "Miracle Workers" and wanted to joke that Steve Buscemi is God here too.

@Raventree: there was so much canon in the series that I didn't expect that you could somehow forget about the changed hair or eye color, especially when the hair color is truly gorgeous)
Even the same Pepper, whom I wanted to see red-haired, did not cause any rejection in the film adaptation, since her appearance does not affect the plot at all. except that it parallels the War.

@AshenKai: Yeah, it's a very careful film adaptation, everyone would like that! And the changes here fit well, quite neatly. Yes, and a million jokes about the fact that the Doctor finally turned red are worth it : D C Pepper, yes, it doesn't catch my eye, I also have with many heroes of "American Gods": the fact that the Shadow is a mulatto, in my opinion, does not interfere with the plot in any way - he just took after his mother, no one, I can't imagine anyone other than Ian McShane as Wednesday, although he's also not a red-bearded man, as in the canon, and the technoboy of our time is just such an impudent skinny major in Balenciaga, rather than the way he was described in the books.

Listen, since you're not a racist, what's the difference? What if this isn't a movie about indigenous Celtic Irish and their oppression due to red hair and lack of soul?:) I've always been curious to ask those who leave such comments :)

Thanks to Ser Pratchett and Gaiman for the amazing book, and Tennant for the gorgeous image of Crowley.
The humor in the series is funny))) Visually, everything is just "incredibly kosher." I look at it and realize that this is exactly how I imagined it when I read "Good Omens."

The screensaver is interesting (screensaver as a separate kind of art), but I think few people noticed that it has a shot of a phone booth standing, and the main characters are next to each other, drinking wine at the table, that's for sure a reference!:D
Humor is right on the level, English is always good for me. I will be waiting for the translation from Lostfilm.

And if they are informed that they may encounter resistance regarding same-sex love, then there is 100% clarification about the oppression of women.

I was looking for a worthy replacement for the TV series "American Gods", "The Chilling adventures of Sabrina", "Wizards" and "Lucifer".
I don't really follow the news in the world of TV series, so I was pleasantly surprised that the series was based on Gaiman's book.

The series has the atmosphere that my soul wanted so much: angels, demons, gods, "refined pathos", subtle humor, beautiful picture, addictive plot.

@driveshaft: According to modern anthropology and genetics, all the first people in 4004 BC, or rather about 70-50 thousand years ago, were black. And they remained like that for another forty thousand years, and only then did they begin to acquire modern racial features. They weren't Negroes either, but their skin tone was similar.

@chapav: the phrase "I don't believe" does not apply to Pratchett's works - there may not be such a "game"
and in general "caricature" and constant subtle banter is what many people love his works for. and Gaiman added a very good pathos. and what has happened so far is very encouraging)

For me, the beginning of the series was slightly delayed, but then just a masterpiece began.
The interaction between Sheen and Tennant is SIMPLY AMAZING. They charmed me for 1 episode. I've honestly been waiting for this series because of my love for Tennant, and you know, I've BEEN WAITING for a REASON. He's gorgeous here.
On the downside, I would say that the rest of the characters are pretty faded. I hope it will get better, after all, it's only 1 episode.

Tennant's gait, I think, should be banned by law, because it's impossible not to stick to these legs. Michael Sheen is such a nice girl in the role of Aziraphale, just moore-moore-moore :Z

Then the same thing will happen with the broadcast on television and the cartoon on the cinema screen.

Interesting.. it turns out that everyone has long known the script in detail. And they are waiting for a spectacle for a long time. Imagine if you know every detail (think you know) how everything will be, because the screenwriter published the manuscript before and is dragging with the release. A nagging sense of expectation. And you have already taken the side of godnot \ slag. This is not an independent book, namely a TV series or a movie without an announcement

I'm reviewing it a second time before watching the second season. It's just as cool as the first time. But there's a question about the plot. Crowley didn't remember what the child's father looked like? Maybe the book explains this point somehow? It's clear that he saw him briefly, and he's probably not interested in people, but still...?
