About This Quiz

"Good Omens" is a truly great show, hailing from the weird and wonderful minds of Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman — two Goliaths of science-fiction and fantasy writing who teamed up on the original novel. Multiple adaptations of the book fell through over the years, and the fantastic version that hit our screens in 2019 almost didn't happen. Pratchett had sadly passed away, and Gaiman had sworn he would never go ahead with the show without his friend. However, Pratchett had written him a letter to be mailed after his death in which he gave his blessing for an adaptation, and so the show went ahead.

The show's delightfully irreverent depiction of a demon who finds having fun is more, well, fun than being evil and an angel who rather prefers ordinary life to even the most divine apocalypse succeeds largely because of the chemistry between its two leads. Aziraphale and Crowley come together out of necessity, but they soon grow into admitting that their friendship transcends basically anything else. Ultimately, this is a show about people fighting for the places and the people they love, and however fantastical they are, this remains a universal theme.
