@@BirdieNoodle Yet there have been major & minor clues all throughout: - Nina, the former nun at the school, saying *"sorry to break up this intimate moment"* in which Crowley was nose to nose with Aziraphale against a wall in protest of having been called out for being nice. - Nina asking Crowley if Aziraphale is his *"bit on the side"* amongst a list of other possibilities, none of which included a female & Crowley stumbling away stunned at the truth of the feelings between him and Aziraphale visible to the world. - Nina & Maggie giving Crowley relationship advice in the bookshop, which is so amusing since A&C had involved themselves in getting N&M to fall for each other. There were even more clues...
@@yubantwo2086also good to remember that the nun and nina are two separate characters, (bbc has only ten actors, you see) and if you're talking about the actress, Nina Sosanya, if im not mistaken, then im sorry, this is just a small misunderstanding lol
The fact that Aziraphale didn't notice Crowley saying he lived in his car because he was so busy being so whipped with realizing what exactly was the Alpha Centauri offer Crowley's given him twice 😂😂😂
Neil Gaiman himself said that their relationship is a love story. If you can't take the word of one of the creators of the book/series idk what to tell you. It's as subtle as freight train
I love how the bathtub scene is one of the coolest crowley scenes and its aziraphale. He really went "if i want to sell this i have to be so cool and confident and suave just like my cool best friend crowley, if he were here he'd talk like in a movie"
Yeah that was what I assumed the video was about given the title (cause I refused to accept the fact that review person isn’t the only one who thinks they’re just friends (TM)). Yeah they’re lovers but here’s them being besties too! This video was golden tho so I’m not mad lol
2 things: 1. If they don't start S3 with Love of my Life it'll be the biggest missed opportunity 2. It was left out but when Crowley says "I shouldn't litter, or I should litter, doesn't matter, there isn't anyone watching anymore" he is 100% meaning Az. Az is there to scold him if he does or praise him if he doesn't so it doesn't matter 😭
I got through the book and season 1 without getting the hint. To be fair, it’s not nearly as apparent in the book without Michael and David staring into each other’s eyes every scene.
I mean, they intentionally decided to focus the tv series on crowley and aziraphale, having them involved in more scenes and adding a bunch, specifically for the purpose of coming at it from a romance angle. In the book their chemistry was more of a bit lol, they had an old bickering gay couple vibe to them more for the fun of it. There were definitely scenes in the book that are pretty easy to read as romantic though!
I remember seeing the fanart for the first time in 2019/2020 before I actually started watching it. People were already shipping them. After rewatching BOTH seasons it's so easy to pick out the little clues
Like many books we read back in the eighties and nineties, it was there already whether you put it together or not. Even in the book, other characters shipped them. There are obvious lines in the book. Because you saw two male (although non gendered technically) beings, you might have misinterpreted the text another way. But... yeah they were there.
I’m on the Aroace spectrum, and even I could see that the two of them are deeply in love with each other. I have trouble telling platonic and romantic apart sometimes in real life (interactions mess with my head), but what I like about media (depends on what media and what genre) is that it’s either already known to the viewer, or it’s very literally depicted to be visible, at varying degrees and styles from sickly sweet 2010s stuff to something as wonderfully complex as Good Omens, so the viewer doesn’t have to rocket science their way through to see that there’s romantic love in the air.
Yes! I am also on the ace spectrum and I like viewing their relationship on the ace spectrum as well but even I could see all those heart eyes the whole time And there's so many stories about best friends, can't we just have this one 😭
Aziraphale: "Come up with somethings or..." *looks at sword* Crowley: *sees the sword but her face is like 'what're u gunna do with that?'* (cause crowley knows Az wont use the sword on her so she's just so confused) Aziraphale: "I'lL NeVeR tAlK tO yOu AgAiN" Crowley: "oh sh*t that's worse than the sword"
The last 10 seconds killed me. I was building up, getting ready for how it really ends when I got the set up for confession, picture of a kiss and them eating at Ritz so funny.
"literally wish i could take that turtle neck off rn" I WHEEZED OMG THEY'RE SO DOWN BAD FOR EACH OTHER THIS WHOLE VIDEO 🥴❤️ and yeah the last scenes of the finale didn't happen at all (im in denial😭😭!!!) can we just appreciate the good old fashioned lover boy in the background
Dear Friends, even as our hearts break for Crowley--and believe mine does--we must remember that his beloved, Aziraphale, loves him too, but, as a being of Love, feels he must share his love (and through it God's love as he sees it) with more than just one person. He's been trained to suspect anything that "only" makes himself and one or two others happy.
I love how much Crowley pays attention to Aziraphale. Literally every scene theyre in, Aziraphale just has his full, adoring attention, it's so sweet. Also the way Crowley stands next to Aziraphale when Aziraphale is talking to people is the most married thing ever istg. He's half facing away and slightly behind him, and standing so close he's practically leaning against his shoulder. He does it when they're telling people about the shopowners meeting, when he sits on the arm of Aziraphale's chair when talking to Muriel, a couple of friends do not stand that close to each other everytime. It just screams married 😂
Love how Azi says guns lend weight to a moral argument. Then in the final battle says to Crowley “come up with something or-“ and raises his sword and the look of fear in Crowley’s eyes. He believed his angel was about to put moral duties before him and finish that sentence with “he’ll kill him”. ALSO Foreshadowing to S2 and the Second Coming….🤔
They didn't even get to be roommates, though! Because Crowley, beautiful, dumb, bitch that she is, never asked Aziraphale if they could stay at his place!😅 Like Aziraphale would have turned him away! Lord knows, Crowley's plants would probably love to be around someone who's a bit kinder to them.
I can’t unhear the “baby” in the drunk scene that comes from Crowley when trying to form the word “bouillabaisse”. The fact that it immediately pans to Az making a kissy face doesn’t surprise me. (@ 6:50) I can’t be the only person who hears it…
I just realised my dad used to do that hand thing to the cars like Crowley while just strolling on to the road with not a care in the world lol. RIP, hope he's having a banana daquiri with Terry P somewhere in the afterlife.
IT IS FCKING BEAUTIFUL. You created pure gold. The BEST azi&crowley counter I've seen so far. I laughed and said awwww the whole 24 minutes. And also THANK YOU for saving the end, I have something to go back to after re-watching both seasons and crying in my pillow
Didn’t Neil say that if someone got through s1 and s2 and still couldn’t see the obvious love they had for each other they never would?? Someone correct me if I’m quoting him wrong Anyways, definitelyyyyyyy besties ✨✨ love the counter
Sense this video went from 400 views to 2k over night i should probably mention you can find me on these social media platforms! Tiktok @AziCrowleyEdits Twitter @ShayBunny95 Tumblr @AziCrowleyEdits Thabk you guys! Yall are so nice 🥹❤❤❤
I just love Crowley's role as the observer most of the time. Hes said in the book to not blink much bc of the snake thing which was translated beautifully into a love language lol. He just loves to see what his charming spouse gets up to. He does so many funny things!!
Crowley and Azira are so awesome. I don't care what they do. They are such a wonderful duo. Crowley and Azira proving demons and angels can pick a side with a friend/lover/whatever that is the same side.
8:35 I would have added 5 for Crowley here lol Also i have seen stills from ep 5 when he’s following AZ around, he’s staring at him so much there 😭 He’s so in love I’m in pain
I don't know if it's because I'm asexual or if it's something wrong with me, but i need it to be either stated that they're in a relationship, or people kissing to realize. Not just with this show, in general. They said they were friends and i took them at their word, I'm sorry I was foolish.
Honestly, while I felt I saw some romantic attraction from the Garden of Eden scene in episode 1, I love how this series made me rethink relationships in a new frame. They ARE the best of friends, AND they love each other. How exactly they love each other doesn’t really matter and doesn’t take away from their relationship in any way. I love how they’ve blurred the lines between where friendship “ends” and “love” begins - I now feel there’s a huge spectrum of overlap there. A friendship without love is no true friendship - though the love for a partner is different and usually much more intense. Good Omens made me see more love in my life.
@@hannahg.8572Wonderfully put! As an aromantic person, I think it’s a shame that romantic love is so often prioritized over other “types” of it. Personally, I don’t see Aziraphale and Crowley’s relationship as just “spouses” or “friends” or any other human label; I think Aziraphale said it best. It’s ineffable. (That being said, this video is a joy, and everybody is entitled to their own interpretation!)
@@KK-rx5zr omg yes. on some levels I love that the kissed because god knows we need more queer rep, but on some levels it felt like it tool away from the wonderful ambiguity that they captured so well. Crowley's "Not actually, either" line and consistent gender fluidity felt way more significant and genuine as representation, and in a lot of ways their relationship had been queer from the very beginning, because they were two nonconforming, genderless beings in love. I wish the kiss hadn't been the climax of the season, it made it feel almost romcom-y. (this is a very minor issue i have lmao i love GO so much)
@@NorthJackson Yes, I totally understand! Although I see the kiss a bit differently, as- for me -it doesn’t take much away from Aziracrow’s ambiguity? Neil himself thinks that kisses have little to do with love, and has said that the kiss wasn’t to show they’re in love, as we’d known that from the beginning. I see the kiss more as a desperate, last-ditch effort to keep Aziraphale from leaving (that sure went well) than as a confession- there were a lot of feelings involved, but I don’t think they all have to be romantic…! Afterall, Neil is open to aromantic interpretations, and David has said that we can label them however we wish! Still, those are my own thoughts, and I 100% understand being unsatisfied with the kiss as a climax. Either way, I definitely agree that Aziraphale and Crowley are queer from the start! (Oh, I also love GO, and adore the casual rep with Crowley- what an absolute icon!)
the review at the start was my mom's exact opinion on the ending. i was like, what do you mean they shouldn't become lovers??? can't even have good rep, straight people always have something to complain about
Fact 1: Neil Gaiman literally told everybody long before season 2 that he has written the script as a love story. Fact 2: GO1 already has a lot of elements that are typical for a love story narrative, including more than one (!) breakup scenes, as well as typical romcom elements more specifically (like the “Sorry to break up an intimate moment” scene). Fact 3: The cinematography was also typical for a romantic story. I mean, when Crowley races to Aziraphale and “Good old-fashioned lover boy” starts playing, or when the end scene features the two main characters drinking champagne in a romantic restaurant while “A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square” is playing, or when the hero rescues the angel-in-distress and his books, and we get a prolonged shot of the look on said angel’s face while romantic music is playing… None of it is exactly subtle, is it? Fact 4: Michael Sheen has also said in interviews that he decided early on that Aziraphale is in love with Crowley and had based his acting choices on that premise. Fact 5: The original source material (the book) also features one of the characters being described as “gayer than a treeful of monkeys on nitrous oxide” and the main pair being perceived as a couple by other characters (notably by Anathema, when she felt safe in their company after Crowley called Aziraphale “angel” because she assumed they were a gay couple). Fact 6: The idea that Aziraphale and Crowley will end up sharing a cottage in South Downs was also discussed by Neil and Terry long before season 1 was even planned. Fact 7: Many interactions between the main characters can be easily perceived (and were, in fact, perceived by a major part of the audience) as demonstrating not simply affection between friends but romantic attraction, flirting, or sexual tension. Yet some of the cishet audience was genuinely surprised by the kiss. And I don’t just mean the homophobes (these people can obviously deny the possibility of queer romance even when the queer couple is legally married, so no surprise there). But I have a friend who is very supportive and who reacted positively to this turn of events but who was still surprised. And I really don’t understand how it’s even possible to miss something that is there on the screen so plainly. Seriously, how? Granted, I grew up in the 90s, in the time when you had to look for the subtext if you wanted to see any sort of representation (e.g. Xena/Gabrielle, Kirk/Spock), so my brain just automatically picks up on these sort of clues even when they are subtle. But the thing is that it was absolutely NOT subtle this time. And neither the author nor the actors ever pretended that it wasn’t a love story. So, how in the world could anybody miss it?
Xena and Gabrielle... That brings back memories of a young girl who was totally not a lesbian. 🙋🏻♀😏 Also very fond of Cissy and Penelope in "You rang m'lord?"
dude (genderneutral) I don't usually comment here but your video made my evening. it's perfect, the chaotic music, my two fav besties LMAO, your counters and especially your comments fhdgbd it's hilarious and excellent. Thank you
I like to think there was an instant attraction, but they both became aware of their feelings at different times. I see Crowley realizing he loves AZ in Rome when AZ says, "let me tempt you--" then gets all flustered. Idk why. Just feels like that moment, that stare was the realization. After that, Crowley has a "AZ in danger" radar and shows up to save him multiple times. He seems to go out of his way to interact with AZ. I also think he probably first suggested the arrangement and convinced AZ it was a good idea. I think Crowley discovered this earlier because he has more self-awareness of his thoughts, opinions, and beliefs. I think AZ realized he had fallen in WWII. Crowley caused himself physical pain by going inside a church, performed what must have been a pretty heafty demonic intervention, and put his physical body in AZ's hands (needing a "real miracle" to survive), all to save AZ. Then, even tho Crowley couldn't care less about books, he saved them because he knew AZ cared for them. The music swells and AZ is not nearly as subtle about is realization moment. I think that realization is why he eventually changed his mind about the holy water. Crowley trusted AZ, despite how crazy the plan sounded. AZ returned it by showing his trust that Crowley wouldnt hurt himself with it. I think the "You go to fast for me, Crowley," line was heartbreaking. But i think its a reflection of how Crowley knew about his feelings for a lot longer and thus actively persued contact with AZ. But AZ just realized during WWII. Of course that seems like a long time to us, but to immortal beings it probably felt like nothing.
Hah, gay atmosphere everywhere, even in the book, I’m really shocked how someone doesn’t see it 😮😂 (not trying to offend anyone, I’m really shocked) (First I read the book, then watched first season. I started to ship them, but when I found out it was canon , I was extremely extremely happy!😆) Amazing video btw!
As someone who uses all pronouns (Saying this because I told that to a friend and just said "I'm going to keep treating you as a girl") and that has an hyperfixation with Good Omens, I feel like you would be a great friend
You know what this show is like? It _is_ like watching a box of puppies. It's like watching a box of puppies, being so happy, then getting told that you'll even get to take one home if, by the end of the day, they haven't all been taken. So you wait, you watch a few of them get chosen by other people, but you're sure that one, hopefully, will still be there for you. It starts getting late, there are two left. It's getting later, and now there's only one. But you have hope, because you believe the person who promised you one will probably just close up early so that you can have it. Then in the last fifteen minutes, the puppy gets run over by a f*cking car. Then you get told, but hey, sometimes dogs reincarnate to be with their humans, and so, maybe, if you wait a few years, it'll reincarnate as another puppy, and maybe, just maybe, you'll get to take _that_ one home, but only if it finds you, and you have to wait a while, and even then, you still have to live with the trauma of _watching it get run over by a f*cking car!_
As an individual that doesn't really care about their pronouns I love that the fandom do the same for this two. And also, that all of us are in denial of the last scene.
I fucking love this and the pronounce you used make me feel so seen since I use they/them and he/him so seeing other people using them for my comfort characters makes me feel safe. So thank youuuu for this totally platonic complication. Youre amazing! And I can't wait to see what you do with s3 heheheh
"Get thee behind me!" Really????? Oh, I'm sure they both would like that. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 P.S. At the Ritz, when Crow calls them "Enough of a bastard to be worth knowing", AZ blushes!!!!! So cute!
Hey, noticed something else. This gesture AZ does at 22:34, pushing Crow on the small of his back to get them to go and fetch Nina and Maggie? That's the most old-married-couple gesture you could think of.
Here again. AZ "just happens" to be there in Ancient Rome, and Crow "just happens" to be around during the French Revolution. Wherever one of them is, the other is always close by. They cannot live apart. That's why they will be back together as soon as season 3 starts. Right? RIGHT?
Straight person here. Watched the first season, and I thought they were platonic friends. In the second season however, things were pretty obvious even in the first few episodes.
Wow, of course they're besties, how could I have not seen that? Watching your video it's so clear to me now! (sure...) 😉 So clever! And thank you for stopping where you did, on behalf of all of us.
Love how theres a whole plot point where aziraphale doesnt pay attention to crowleys warnings because the romance b plot has gotten him so love-horny he cant think right
I saw the gay (yes I know they are ethereal and occult beings with no gender and sexuality, I know)the literal first two minutes they were on screen. I just got the book. YAWL, BFFR THEY ARE SO GAY
I'm straight and I WISH they end together Even in S1 I KNEW they're each other's half S2 EP.6 broke my heart I still can get over Crowley riding in silence all over the Bentley, and Azi's smile on the elevator This video is awesome F*CK all them not seeing love where love is because they're so mind closed (Sorry for my English) PD: you didn't add a counter for all the (no so) sneaky touching
"... 'cause it was so easy to fall in love with David." - I mean ... can we blame M? Just perfect video, thank you for showing these besties/roomies having good times together
The best part is just the absolute hypocrisy of it lol Are you going to tell me you'll have one, singular, friend for 6000 years and that's _only_ your bestie... Like?? Real life friends don't last that long (AND EVEN IF THEY DO WTF DUDE YOU LOOK AT YOUR FRIENDS LIKE THAT? GROSS). Let's stop pretending like it works that way. If you only ever had a friend, forever, chances are that you guys are staying for a deeper reason. There's a deeper connection going on for these two to stay together for the entirety of time, that's what I'm trying to say... You either brothers or lovers. No point in between... And it's easier to fall in love than to adopt a stranger lbr LMAO 😭💕 PS: THE NIGHTINGALE SONG??? HELLOOO? PEOPLE DON'T LISTEN TO THE LYRICS? 👹🌈
I love the ironic perfection of "you're my best friend" actually being a love song. And like two lines after the loverboy song was cut off there is a date at the Ritz and pretty much describes the events after the Antichrist showed up: "Dining at the Ritz, we'll meet at nine (One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine o'clock) precisely I will pay the bill, you taste the wine Driving back in style, in my saloon, will do quite nicely Just take me back to yours, that will be fine Come on and get it"
Oh my god when I saw Crowley give AZ the briefcase the first time I watched it I was like,ITS HAPPENING YYEEEEESSS,I literally read the book as a kid and thought how the two would be great together and frequently would draw them together and this all without the constant faces and looks,this is my security blanket while I survive until season three rationing out season two subbing now so I can watch this every day
![crowley and aziraphale being silly for 10 minutes [not so] straight :)](/img/n.gif)
"You're My Best Friend" and "Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy" are overlapping SO CHAOTICALLY it feels very fitting for their relationship
Can't believe you cut the biggest clue in s1: the gay guy saying to azi "you're better off without him" on the street lol
That one guy made this ship real
Youre right im sorry 😭
I hope they invite him to their wedding@@BirdieNoodle

I love how the bathtub scene is one of the coolest crowley scenes and its aziraphale. He really went "if i want to sell this i have to be so cool and confident and suave just like my cool best friend crowley, if he were here he'd talk like in a movie"
I love those scenes purely for the implication that Crowley and Azi know each other so incredibly well they can mimic each other perfectly
ALMOST perfectly- they both made each out to be a bit more badass than they are
@@frogfish1567 I think Crowley was just genuinely trying to hold himself back from beating everyone in that room to death
I mean, you should be bestfriends with your lover.
Yes!
Exactly! Few things annoy me more than people acting like it's mutually exclusive
Yeah that was what I assumed the video was about given the title (cause I refused to accept the fact that review person isn’t the only one who thinks they’re just friends (TM)). Yeah they’re lovers but here’s them being besties too! This video was golden tho so I’m not mad lol
The entirety of the good omens fandom is after the person who wrote that review
As they should 💅😇
“And they were the best roommates ever” 😂😂
JK, I ship them so hard I could be in the navy at this point.
This is the greatest pun I actually can’t
2 things:
1. If they don't start S3 with Love of my Life it'll be the biggest missed opportunity
2. It was left out but when Crowley says "I shouldn't litter, or I should litter, doesn't matter, there isn't anyone watching anymore" he is 100% meaning Az. Az is there to scold him if he does or praise him if he doesn't so it doesn't matter 😭
also, ik they aren't he/hims per se and love that this video absolutely refuses to stick to any particular pronoun ❤😂
Them: *Literally flirting for six thousand years*

Valid. Shell have plenty of time to catch up in s3 💅
the fact that by six minutes in i was literally gasping for breath because GOD DAM IT they're so in love
IT IS FCKING BEAUTIFUL. You created pure gold. The BEST azi&crowley counter I've seen so far. I laughed and said awwww the whole 24 minutes. And also THANK YOU for saving the end, I have something to go back to after re-watching both seasons and crying in my pillow
BRILLIANT!!!!!!
this has to be the funniest and smartest take on crowley and az.
what a great ending to 2023!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
thanks!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you. Happy 2024! Cheers! 💅
Best New Year’s Eve present ever
Also the very double take of "i've never eaten an oyster"
Could you explain it?
@@dashazhuravleva6737 oyster= female parts
I love how chaotic ur scoring is
I am in fact a chaotic bisexual, so...checks out.
Didn’t Neil say that if someone got through s1 and s2 and still couldn’t see the obvious love they had for each other they never would?? Someone correct me if I’m quoting him wrong
Anyways, definitelyyyyyyy besties ✨✨ love the counter
Yea he said it just like that.
Sense this video went from 400 views to 2k over night i should probably mention you can find me on these social media platforms!

Thabk you guys! Yall are so nice 🥹❤❤❤
Clicked on this video thinking "no ways this person still thinks they're bsfs" then saw the review lmao
There are SO MANY stories about best friends and wholesome bromances if that's what you want to see...can't we please just have this one thing 😭😭😭
Ikr? 😭
I just love Crowley's role as the observer most of the time. Hes said in the book to not blink much bc of the snake thing which was translated beautifully into a love language lol. He just loves to see what his charming spouse gets up to. He does so many funny things!!
Crowley and Azira are so awesome. I don't care what they do. They are such a wonderful duo. Crowley and Azira proving demons and angels can pick a side with a friend/lover/whatever that is the same side.
This was a delight. Besties forever!
If their tiny half miracle combination was so powerful, I can't imagine what will happen when they both go all in.
I am adding this to my channel of good omens playlists. This is absolutely awesome!
Glad you like it! 🥹🥹❤️❤️
8:35 I would have added 5 for Crowley here lol
Also i have seen stills from ep 5 when he’s following AZ around, he’s staring at him so much there 😭
He’s so in love I’m in pain
I don't know if it's because I'm asexual or if it's something wrong with me, but i need it to be either stated that they're in a relationship, or people kissing to realize. Not just with this show, in general. They said they were friends and i took them at their word, I'm sorry I was foolish.
It happens bestie ❤️✨️
Honestly, while I felt I saw some romantic attraction from the Garden of Eden scene in episode 1, I love how this series made me rethink relationships in a new frame. They ARE the best of friends, AND they love each other. How exactly they love each other doesn’t really matter and doesn’t take away from their relationship in any way. I love how they’ve blurred the lines between where friendship “ends” and “love” begins - I now feel there’s a huge spectrum of overlap there. A friendship without love is no true friendship - though the love for a partner is different and usually much more intense. Good Omens made me see more love in my life.
@@hannahg.8572Wonderfully put! As an aromantic person, I think it’s a shame that romantic love is so often prioritized over other “types” of it. Personally, I don’t see Aziraphale and Crowley’s relationship as just “spouses” or “friends” or any other human label; I think Aziraphale said it best. It’s ineffable.
(That being said, this video is a joy, and everybody is entitled to their own interpretation!)
@@KK-rx5zr omg yes. on some levels I love that the kissed because god knows we need more queer rep, but on some levels it felt like it tool away from the wonderful ambiguity that they captured so well. Crowley's "Not actually, either" line and consistent gender fluidity felt way more significant and genuine as representation, and in a lot of ways their relationship had been queer from the very beginning, because they were two nonconforming, genderless beings in love. I wish the kiss hadn't been the climax of the season, it made it feel almost romcom-y. (this is a very minor issue i have lmao i love GO so much)
@@NorthJackson Yes, I totally understand! Although I see the kiss a bit differently, as- for me -it doesn’t take much away from Aziracrow’s ambiguity?
Neil himself thinks that kisses have little to do with love, and has said that the kiss wasn’t to show they’re in love, as we’d known that from the beginning. I see the kiss more as a desperate, last-ditch effort to keep Aziraphale from leaving (that sure went well) than as a confession- there were a lot of feelings involved, but I don’t think they all have to be romantic…! Afterall, Neil is open to aromantic interpretations, and David has said that we can label them however we wish!
Still, those are my own thoughts, and I 100% understand being unsatisfied with the kiss as a climax. Either way, I definitely agree that Aziraphale and Crowley are queer from the start!
(Oh, I also love GO, and adore the casual rep with Crowley- what an absolute icon!)
It's actually incredible that there are people out there who don't see it??????? Like????? 💀💀💀
The counter breaking when they were at the ritz made me cackle 😭😭😭😭
the review at the start was my mom's exact opinion on the ending. i was like, what do you mean they shouldn't become lovers??? can't even have good rep, straight people always have something to complain about
Fact 1: Neil Gaiman literally told everybody long before season 2 that he has written the script as a love story.
Fact 2: GO1 already has a lot of elements that are typical for a love story narrative, including more than one (!) breakup scenes, as well as typical romcom elements more specifically (like the “Sorry to break up an intimate moment” scene).
Fact 3: The cinematography was also typical for a romantic story. I mean, when Crowley races to Aziraphale and “Good old-fashioned lover boy” starts playing, or when the end scene features the two main characters drinking champagne in a romantic restaurant while “A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square” is playing, or when the hero rescues the angel-in-distress and his books, and we get a prolonged shot of the look on said angel’s face while romantic music is playing… None of it is exactly subtle, is it?
Fact 4: Michael Sheen has also said in interviews that he decided early on that Aziraphale is in love with Crowley and had based his acting choices on that premise.
Fact 5: The original source material (the book) also features one of the characters being described as “gayer than a treeful of monkeys on nitrous oxide” and the main pair being perceived as a couple by other characters (notably by Anathema, when she felt safe in their company after Crowley called Aziraphale “angel” because she assumed they were a gay couple).
Fact 6: The idea that Aziraphale and Crowley will end up sharing a cottage in South Downs was also discussed by Neil and Terry long before season 1 was even planned.
Fact 7: Many interactions between the main characters can be easily perceived (and were, in fact, perceived by a major part of the audience) as demonstrating not simply affection between friends but romantic attraction, flirting, or sexual tension.
Yet some of the cishet audience was genuinely surprised by the kiss.
And I don’t just mean the homophobes (these people can obviously deny the possibility of queer romance even when the queer couple is legally married, so no surprise there). But I have a friend who is very supportive and who reacted positively to this turn of events but who was still surprised.
And I really don’t understand how it’s even possible to miss something that is there on the screen so plainly. Seriously, how?
Granted, I grew up in the 90s, in the time when you had to look for the subtext if you wanted to see any sort of representation (e.g. Xena/Gabrielle, Kirk/Spock), so my brain just automatically picks up on these sort of clues even when they are subtle.
But the thing is that it was absolutely NOT subtle this time. And neither the author nor the actors ever pretended that it wasn’t a love story. So, how in the world could anybody miss it?
Xena and Gabrielle... That brings back memories of a young girl who was totally not a lesbian. 🙋🏻♀😏
Also very fond of Cissy and Penelope in "You rang m'lord?"
dude (genderneutral) I don't usually comment here but your video made my evening. it's perfect, the chaotic music, my two fav besties LMAO, your counters and especially your comments fhdgbd it's hilarious and excellent. Thank you
Well, I hope you know this comment made my day. Thank YOU 🥰
They kiss and go to breakfast and then nothing happens is my canon thank you
Speak your truth 💪
the face crowley gives azi when he says “let me temp you to !!” im sobbing 😭😭😭
the "thought" captions are relatable af
Do we know just WHERE Crowley slapped his husband during the car argument? Maybe the hand....maybe somewhere more....intimate?
ive always wondered about that. all we get is the slap noise
What about when Crowley is drunk on laudanum? Where does he smack Aziraphale then? 👀
This was amazing! It deserves way more views
Thank you 🥹
I like to think there was an instant attraction, but they both became aware of their feelings at different times. I see Crowley realizing he loves AZ in Rome when AZ says, "let me tempt you--" then gets all flustered. Idk why. Just feels like that moment, that stare was the realization. After that, Crowley has a "AZ in danger" radar and shows up to save him multiple times. He seems to go out of his way to interact with AZ. I also think he probably first suggested the arrangement and convinced AZ it was a good idea. I think Crowley discovered this earlier because he has more self-awareness of his thoughts, opinions, and beliefs.
I think AZ realized he had fallen in WWII. Crowley caused himself physical pain by going inside a church, performed what must have been a pretty heafty demonic intervention, and put his physical body in AZ's hands (needing a "real miracle" to survive), all to save AZ. Then, even tho Crowley couldn't care less about books, he saved them because he knew AZ cared for them. The music swells and AZ is not nearly as subtle about is realization moment. I think that realization is why he eventually changed his mind about the holy water. Crowley trusted AZ, despite how crazy the plan sounded. AZ returned it by showing his trust that Crowley wouldnt hurt himself with it.
I think the "You go to fast for me, Crowley," line was heartbreaking. But i think its a reflection of how Crowley knew about his feelings for a lot longer and thus actively persued contact with AZ. But AZ just realized during WWII. Of course that seems like a long time to us, but to immortal beings it probably felt like nothing.
Somebody to love song with this particular scene explains everything about them. Love your edited video ! The counter exploded lol.
LITERALLY KICKING MY FEET GIGGLING THIS ENTIRE VIDEO
best thing ever, how I love these two
Okay I can't 🤣 here take my sub. 🤣
This is right up my humor! Loved every second of it! ❤
More videos soon! My full time career has been so busy! But i promise ill be back at it!
How could anyone not absolutely LOVE and ADORE the one constant in their life? Best friends... SURE... maybe about 2000 years ago.
that commentary was too funny
Hah, gay atmosphere everywhere, even in the book, I’m really shocked how someone doesn’t see it 😮😂 (not trying to offend anyone, I’m really shocked)
(First I read the book, then watched first season. I started to ship them, but when I found out it was canon , I was extremely extremely happy!😆)
Amazing video btw!
As someone who uses all pronouns (Saying this because I told that to a friend and just said "I'm going to keep treating you as a girl") and that has an hyperfixation with Good Omens, I feel like you would be a great friend
🥹🥹🥹🥹 sending love!
A perfect happy New Year's video.
saw the title and was like 😨
You know what this show is like? It _is_ like watching a box of puppies. It's like watching a box of puppies, being so happy, then getting told that you'll even get to take one home if, by the end of the day, they haven't all been taken. So you wait, you watch a few of them get chosen by other people, but you're sure that one, hopefully, will still be there for you. It starts getting late, there are two left. It's getting later, and now there's only one. But you have hope, because you believe the person who promised you one will probably just close up early so that you can have it.
Then in the last fifteen minutes, the puppy gets run over by a f*cking car.
Then you get told, but hey, sometimes dogs reincarnate to be with their humans, and so, maybe, if you wait a few years, it'll reincarnate as another puppy, and maybe, just maybe, you'll get to take _that_ one home, but only if it finds you, and you have to wait a while, and even then, you still have to live with the trauma of _watching it get run over by a f*cking car!_
I lovveeee how you use all of their pronouns interchangeably
It was honestly whatever i felt the vibe was in that moment lmao i quite literally let my heart decide 😅
As an individual that doesn't really care about their pronouns I love that the fandom do the same for this two.
And also, that all of us are in denial of the last scene.
I fucking love this and the pronounce you used make me feel so seen since I use they/them and he/him so seeing other people using them for my comfort characters makes me feel safe.
So thank youuuu for this totally platonic complication. Youre amazing! And I can't wait to see what you do with s3 heheheh
Happy you enjoyed it 🥹
🎵And history will call them close friends, besties, roommates, colleagues. Anything but lovers. History hates lovers🎵
Besties in love 🥰
hahaha i loved this video, thank you for making it!
"Get thee behind me!" Really????? Oh, I'm sure they both would like that. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
P.S. At the Ritz, when Crow calls them "Enough of a bastard to be worth knowing", AZ blushes!!!!! So cute!
Hey, noticed something else. This gesture AZ does at 22:34, pushing Crow on the small of his back to get them to go and fetch Nina and Maggie? That's the most old-married-couple gesture you could think of.
Here again.
AZ "just happens" to be there in Ancient Rome, and Crow "just happens" to be around during the French Revolution. Wherever one of them is, the other is always close by. They cannot live apart.
That's why they will be back together as soon as season 3 starts.
Right? RIGHT?
@@Donnagata1409 Right!
@@Donnagata1409 I love that moment, too. Crowley just lets Aziraphale gently push him on his way to do a husbandly errand.
This was super funny, and I enjoyed myself immensely! 😂❤
Straight person here. Watched the first season, and I thought they were platonic friends. In the second season however, things were pretty obvious even in the first few episodes.
For me, I felt something in the 1st season as well, but yeah it was definitely not a surprise in the 2nd season
Wow, of course they're besties, how could I have not seen that? Watching your video it's so clear to me now! (sure...) 😉
So clever! And thank you for stopping where you did, on behalf of all of us.
I almost cried I was laughing so hard! Great video!
This is LOVELY!!!
This is lovely
We need an aziraphale ‘voice inflection’ counter
Love how theres a whole plot point where aziraphale doesnt pay attention to crowleys warnings because the romance b plot has gotten him so love-horny he cant think right
I absolutly adore your commentary
I saw the gay (yes I know they are ethereal and occult beings with no gender and sexuality, I know)the literal first two minutes they were on screen. I just got the book. YAWL, BFFR THEY ARE SO GAY
This is so random but as a genderfluid person myself I LOVE the mixed up pronouns so much 😭😭💞
OG historians' roommates
Ah yes best friends
I'm straight and I WISH they end together
Even in S1 I KNEW they're each other's half
S2 EP.6 broke my heart
I still can get over Crowley riding in silence all over the Bentley, and Azi's smile on the elevator
This video is awesome
F*CK all them not seeing love where love is because they're so mind closed
(Sorry for my English)
PD: you didn't add a counter for all the (no so) sneaky touching
I def should have!
"... 'cause it was so easy to fall in love with David." - I mean ... can we blame M?
Just perfect video, thank you for showing these besties/roomies having good times together
Completely heterosexual bromance! ❤❤ It’s not gay if they’re wearing socks!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The best part is just the absolute hypocrisy of it lol Are you going to tell me you'll have one, singular, friend for 6000 years and that's _only_ your bestie... Like?? Real life friends don't last that long (AND EVEN IF THEY DO WTF DUDE YOU LOOK AT YOUR FRIENDS LIKE THAT? GROSS). Let's stop pretending like it works that way. If you only ever had a friend, forever, chances are that you guys are staying for a deeper reason.
There's a deeper connection going on for these two to stay together for the entirety of time, that's what I'm trying to say... You either brothers or lovers. No point in between... And it's easier to fall in love than to adopt a stranger lbr LMAO 😭💕
PS: THE NIGHTINGALE SONG??? HELLOOO? PEOPLE DON'T LISTEN TO THE LYRICS? 👹🌈
I love the ironic perfection of "you're my best friend" actually being a love song.
And like two lines after the loverboy song was cut off there is a date at the Ritz and pretty much describes the events after the Antichrist showed up:
"Dining at the Ritz, we'll meet at nine
(One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine o'clock) precisely
I will pay the bill, you taste the wine
Driving back in style, in my saloon, will do quite nicely
Just take me back to yours, that will be fine
Come on and get it"
Oh my god when I saw Crowley give AZ the briefcase the first time I watched it I was like,ITS HAPPENING YYEEEEESSS,I literally read the book as a kid and thought how the two would be great together and frequently would draw them together and this all without the constant faces and looks,this is my security blanket while I survive until season three rationing out season two subbing now so I can watch this every day
This made me laugh sm 😭😭
Awwww 9:24 is the sweetest comment about them I've ever heard!!!🤗🥰😍💛💛💛
