Good Omens (Season 2)

The Woke is Strong in this one!  Aziraphale (Michael Sheen) and Crowley (David Tennant) return to London and the latest issue from Heaven.  Rather than the forthcoming apocalypse with the arrival of the anti-Christ, we have Archangel Gabriel (John Hamm) arriving naked and with a severe case of amnesia at Aziraphale's book shop.  Now, both Heaven and Hell want to get their hands on Gabriel while Aziraphale and Crowley must not only protect him but discover why he has amnesia.

As in the previous series, we are shown several incidents through history where Aziraphale and Crowley crossed paths.  One of these is the Book of Job.  It turns out that Job's wife was black.  Oddly, his three children by her prove to be a lily-white son, a mixed-race daughter, and an Iranian daughter.  What is this casting?  The makers want it to be abundantly clear that they cared not a whit about race or ethnicity during casting.  Genetics worked differently in Biblical times.  Then we have the vinyl record seller who is crushing on the coffee shop lady.  Yes, here's a relationship that will check off the mixed-race box and the lesbian love box.  Sigh.  Oh, and God's pronouns are 'they/them' for those who are curious.  In the middle of the 19th century while visiting Scotland, Crowley and Aziraphale come across grave robbers who sell bodies to the local surgeon.  Of course, the body snatchers are a pair of waifish girls.  Um, they have no other means of supporting themselves.  Really?  Digging up bodies is just the sort of work for 100 lbs. girls.

As I strongly advise against seeing this travesty, spoilers follow.  It turns out that the Archangel Gabriel had been meeting secretly with Beelzebub (Shelley Conn) to agree never to have Armageddon.  During these meetings, they fell in love.  Yep, by the end, they run off together to spend eternity on Alpha Centauri.  Crowley gets inspired by this and, at the end of the finale, kisses Aziraphale passionately and proposes that they too run off together.  Sigh.

Skip.  Do not waste time on this disaster.
