I’m gonna make you love that plant scene even more: 1. Crowley’s acting out the way he was parented on his own plant kids. Screw up one time, you’re doomed to the pit/garbage disposal. Break one rule and you’re literally expelled from the garden. 2. The book (but not the show so I’m not considering this a spoiler) eventually reveals Crowley does not destroy the plants but instead fakes their dramatic deaths then takes them to an old lady in his building who’s really great with nursing plants back to health.

This is going to be so pedantic, but it’s not actually mentioned what he does with the plants in the book. Neil Gaiman tweeted that Crowley turned the shredder on to frighten the plants and then gave them to an old lady downstairs, but this was in response to a parent telling him their seven year daughter was upset by the scene. It does seem in character for Crowley, but it is ultimately a head canon, and I believe Neil Gaiman has specifically said he left it up to the interpretation of the reader. However, while the scene in the show was pretty much taken line for line from the book, there is a notable difference. In the book it doesn’t say that he shreds the plants, or even that the sound of a shredder is heard. It simply says that “he would leave the flat with the offending plant, and return an hour or so later with a large, empty flower pot, which he would leave somewhere conspicuously around the flat.” That seems to be the right amount of time to pop downstairs, have a nice chat and a cup of tea with an old lady and help re-pot a plant. So I’m inclined to go with the idea that Crowley did give the plants to the old lady in his flat, but it is ultimately just a headcanon!

It's also was mentioned that Terry typed up 60-70% of the original book - and especially for people who know Pratchett's work - a lot of the world building and the wacky shenanigans are such staples of his writing that it's very sad that it goes overlooked.

But it is sadly a fact that he isn't as generally popular as Gaiman is. Mainly because he focused it all on Discworld, which has a very specific humor that does not appeal to everyone, so if someone doesn't like discworld, they pretty much won't read his work. Gaiman is much more versatile and thus, has an easier time reaching different audiences. ( I say this as a massive Sir Pterry and Disworld fan. I also have the feeling he might not be very well know in America in general)

According to Gaiman, he had the idea about the anti-christ being in an idealic English village, but didn't really know what to do with it. So he sent the idea he had to a few friends. Terry Pratchett (who Gaiman greatly respected) got back in touch and said "I think I know what happens next. Do you want to work on it togther?" Gaiman describes the experience as "The closest Im ever going to get to painting a cieling with Michael Angelo." GNU Terry Pratchett, you changed the world of fantasy and you are greatly missed.

Context as you didn't know who Sir Terry was in the video. Pratchett created a fantasy communication system where the code GNU means to keep passing the message up and down the system forever. In the same world it is believed that a man is never truly dead while his name is still spoken, so having your name sent with this code is a form of spiritual immortality. So Sir Terry's fans have made it the default tribute to him.

Here's a question: which movie(s) would you admit is Discworld? Like, obviously we don't talk about The Watch. Going Postal has a good female lead but the golems are odd Hogfather has Alfred and Susan, but Death is a bit of a let down... Etc

My gran had it. Gave a copy to my mum too. It's pretty much "how to be a good wife"... It's got loads of recipes for stuff, but also how to organise a dinner party and tips to get different stains out of things. That's why it's "Mrs B's household guide" rather than "Mrs B's recipe book"

I love this show so much. Crowley is my sad boi favorite. When this first came out, people were writing their interpretations on the characters actions. And one of my favorite interpretations is Crowley's open hostility towards his plants and demanding perfection and 'casting out' the ones that are imperfect is his way of coping with him being cast to hell for being an imperfect angel by simply being himself, just like how its natural for plants to have wilty spots. Which broke my heart. And Azeriphel's chaotic book shop is his way of distancing himself from the sterility and strict order of heaven. These characters are so tragic and so amazing and I love them so much and I am so excited for season 3 and can't wait for what they have planned. It will be just absolutely bonkers

Niel Gaiman and Terry Pratchett wrote Good Omens. Niel Gaiman wrote the more creepy, disturbing bits, the serious notes, and Terry Pratchett is a much more whimsical, quirky writer, generally. Together, its a masterpiece. There is no second book, Terry Pratche5t died before it could be written. However, the second season, which Niel Gaiman helped direct, is based on his and Pratchett's plans for the second book. Terry Pratcher was a glorious writer, very satirical while fun and deeply meaningful. His metaphors are legend. He was knighted for his writing. I highly recommend his books, especially the Discworld series!

Season 1: The original book, plus elements from the unwritten but planned second book (John Hamm's Gabriel, for example) Season 2: All new stuff, following on from the end of Season 1, but not the story that was intended for Book 2. Season 3: As far as we have been told, the story that was originally planned for Book 2. 'Dick Turpin' is a very famous English highwayman.

@@shaynaformity1384 I guess my comment was also not quite clear, I just wanted to agree with you that Broadchurch is great! I haven't actually heard of the others yet, but I might give them a watch! The only other shows I've seen Tennant in are Jessica Jones (he is the best villain in the most horrible way) and Around the World in 80 Days (not great, but not really bad either).
