With having to move my media server and having finally unpacked my dvds yesterday my personal watch list has exploded. I'm trying to figure out what to watch first. |

But that's not what it's about.... Oh - and I really enjoyed the book, and a re-read of the book. The TV series is different in some details, of course, but also excellent. |

I enjoyed "Good Omens" (both the book and the show), but while reading it, I couldn't help but feel it was reminiscent of Heinlein's "Job: A Comedy of Justice". Not necessarily a bad thing; it just meant I wasn't quite as enamored with Good Omens as I might have been had I read it first.

Vis-a-vis the "religious themes," well...kinda is the best way I can put it. Mostly NOT is the more accurate way. The story wouldn't exist without them, but it's not proselytizing if that's what she's contemplating. Not IMHO, anyway. (Waves at everybody--sorry, between the crud that kept me down for a while and a staff loss in my admin office, I'm just not able to get over here daily as I used to.) Hitch |
