Here is the good news, team.

We need some good news, right?

Good Omens Season 2 is fucking amazing.

(Just the tiniest of spoiler ahead if you were oblivious to what was happening in Season 1.)

And by amazing I mean finally, explicitly queer. Halleluja. Of course, Season 1 is queer, but it was the kind of queer that made straight people say “Why can’t they just be really good friends?’ and then I proceeded to rip my hair out. Season 2 saw that rebuttal and took a sledgehammer to it. Love is love. We win again.

But also — season 2 was someone more beautiful and funny and just goddamn cozy. I 100% loved it more than the first season. Bless this angel-demon romantic comedy satirically set against a war between heaven and hell but on a micro-level set at a bookshop. And a coffee shop. There is an overabundance of Jane Austen references and a plot-driven recreation of fanfic tropes.

I do not want to spoil anyone, so I’ll leave it there and say Good Omens is well worth the time and well worth the four-year wait for the second season (and there had better be a third).

With Love,

Natalie
