Blog: <p>I have mixed feelings on the upcoming season of Good Omens. I loved the book! And I felt like the first season was a really good adaptation of the book, so I loved that as well! And now I'm wondering: does it need a second season? Isn't that just a moneygrab? (I know it probably isn't because of how much you are personally involved, but it still sometimes feels like that to my cynical young mind). Will it be inevitably worse than the first season?</p><p>And on the other hand: you are still heavily involved, so it just might turn out to be very good. More of the things I loved about the first season? Yes, please! Besides, if I don't like it, that doesn't detract from my experience of the first season and/or the book.</p><p>All in all, I suppose I'm glad you're making it, but I'm not sure if I'm going to watch it…</p> from
