Good Omens [Amazon]
2019-06-01 19:40Ok, the six eps were fun, although I have to admit that I ended up watching the dubbed version (despite not all of the language jokes translate properly), because I had a hard time following -esp. the demonic- accents and the German subtitles on English sounds were... confusing. Sadly, the English subtitles included way too much sound description as to be not equally distracting, hence...
...but I digress. Overall, the series stays very close to the book (as far as I recall it) and shines whenever it focuses on Aziley - and I wish they'd put as much effort into the secondary and tertiary cast. Exaggeration is an acceptable method of style, but without enough substance it quickly becomes annoying (see Heavenly executive (tm)).
Anyways, all this complaining aside - it were two days of fun watching this. If you can get a hold of this, have fun! :-)
Now, back to the Decagram.
