Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAt the end of the opening sequence (in the nebula), the angel who will become the demon Crowley raises his wing over the head of Aziraphale to shield him from the 'raining' new stars. This is a direct reversal of the opening sequence of the first series where angel Aziraphale holds HIS wing up over demon Crowley's head to shield HIM from the first rains in the Garden of Eden.
- GoofsThe Solar system swinging by the pair in the middle of the intro dialogue is not to scale. (Otherwise it could not fit on any screen or would be too small to see.)
- Quotes
Crowley: [referring to Gabriel] He is not our friend!
Aziraphale: I don't think he really has any friends.
Crowley: Exactly.
Aziraphale: Yes, exactly.
Crowley: What does your exactly mean, exactly? I feel like your exactly and my exactly are different exactlys.

Featured review
This second season is off to a delightful start, pushing some well-known characters well out of their traditional comfort zones... even if they're unaware of it at the time.
Crowley and Aziraphale are absolutely delightful and perfect foils for each other's quirks and missteps. Their relationship is such a beautiful example of friendship... their intimate knowledge of each other's strengths, weaknesses, secret delights & sorrows is something I wish all men could have in their lives.
Imagine what a gloriously different world we'd have if this were true?
Jon Hamm is fabulous in all his abundantly blissful ignorance.
That is not an euphemism.
Or is it...?!!?
I still need more characters so I will say make sure to check out the X-Ray extras for delightful BTS scenes and interviews. HOWEVER- Whoever let David Tennant on screen in that mangy, pill-covered, bug-scuffle looking sweater should be sacked! IMMEDIATELY. Wardrobe was apparently MIA making fabulous Liberace-inspired evening wear.
GET THAT MAN A SWEATER SHAVER, STAT!
David- Turn your sweaters inside out, gentle cycle, and lay flat to dry, Love. They deserve better.
