Good Omens - Amazon Prime 31st May

[Anonymous]

I've never read any of the Discworld books but have seen all the adaptations and am really looking forward to seeing this.

I'm watching it all tonight back to back episodes so I hope it's as good as everyone says or I'll be back slapping people

It was weird. A bit like Dr Who meets Lucifer.....
I watched it all through but then wondered why I did?

Sounds like it ain't my cuppa tea 🍵 I'm not into supernatural stuff.

I certainly won't bother with any other series.....

That's fair enough. I may watch the first episode after the footy but while I have Prime I'll try and make the most of it.

As the whole story has been told, I do not see much scope for any further episodes or spin-off series.

Besides, one half of the writing team is no longer around.

They're still making Bond films...

So true. Any successful franchise will continue irrespective of the writers....

Finished and thoroughly enjoyed it.

On Bond, Barbara Broccoli who is Albert Broccoli's Daughter is still in control along with her Half Brother Michael G Wilson.

As both have been involved with the production of the franchise for most of their lives they know the formula and how to put a darker spin on Fleming's work which they have done since Casino Royale (2006) of course.

Do you think they are stringing them out?

[jonsie]

Sure!!
