Good Omens follows an angel and a demon through time until ultimately … the end is near and they are forced to work together to stop the apocalypse. I’m not sure how historically accurate all of the backstories are, but the show seems to take pieces of religious teachings, like Noah’s Arc and others, to show what it was “really” like to be there.

One of the most ironic parts of the show is that the person causing the start of the Apocalypse is a child. This makes for an interesting dynamic as he realizes he has powers that can control his friends and end the world.

The show also follows the great, great, great, great, great ancestors of a witch and an incredibly unlucky witch hunter. While all of the stories don’t seem to match up at first, they culminate in one of the greatest endings to a mini-series that has ever been created. We can only hope that the show gets revived for another season .. or at least, maybe, a spin-off or two.
