The second day after watching "Good Omens", after "Secret No. 9", I can't help but admire the drama again and again!

1. The imagination is so rich, I can't believe it was created by human beings!

2. Another interesting point is: I used to think that understanding a story and a play depends on understanding, but now I realize that without imagination, you cannot enter the story. It seems that Einstein's sentence: Imagination is more important than knowledge, and there is another layer of connotation [social society]

3. The small settings in the play are also quite interesting: the four knights of the apocalypse of the son of the devil are war, hunger, pollution and death. Pollution came into office after the plague retired, and it has kept pace with the times. But in the end, they were defeated by the beliefs of children: peace, healthy and delicious food and cleanliness. Death is not defeated because it is eternal and everywhere.

4. The opening of the end of the world and the birth of the devil's son originated from a bad behavior of the hell devil's civet cat for the prince. But the irony is that the devil in hell is half-hearted, and the child is replaced by the wrong child. What is even more ironic is that the child of a serious family is replaced by the target politician and taught to be a despicable bad boy, while the real child of the devil is replaced by a kind ordinary child. He was taught to be the kindest good boy in the village, and even the vicious dog of hell was "named" into a cute little dog, as shown in Figure 7 [covering his face] What's even more ironic is that the devil's son After being awakened, he actually became a little guardian of environmental protection: he made the nuclear pollution disappear, the disappearance of Atlantis appeared, and he also let aliens come to earth to promote peace [laughter]

5. Friendship may be the biggest theme in the play. After all, after the devil's son got all his power, he was called back by his friends again. He said: I don't want to rule the world, I think about playing games every day to make my friends If they are not bored, they are already tired.

The friendship between angels and demons is most worthy of mention. They finally joined forces to help the son of demons prevent the end of the world. Six thousand years of friendship is no joke [social society]

6. The identities of demons and angels are also worth mentioning. Demons have good intentions, always paddle when they work (do bad things), and often help lovely angels unconditionally. Seduce Adam to eat the apple of Eden, but suddenly start to wonder if he has done a good thing. Angels do good deeds conscientiously, but their superiors collude with hell just to carry out the so-called God's plan that they do not understand. Feeling distressed that Eve gave her his flaming sword, but was scolded by God for it.

What is an angel, what is a demon, what is right and what is wrong, what is good and what is bad?

In the end, the old snake said: the war is not over, but it may not be a war between heaven and hell in the end, but a war between us and them. Intriguing.

    Cosmetic contact lenses are a bit too much, but who doesn’t want a lullaby to be Nanny?

    It is indeed a 100% restoration of the original work, and I couldn't foresee the luck when reading the book. The whole production and filming method is still quite a British drama assembly line, but fortunately, it is suitable for the style of the original work. The adaptation with the author participating in the whole process is different. Although there are not too many surprises, it still guarantees the bottom line of quality (this is better than 95% of the dramas), so I sincerely hope that all authors will treat their children well and really participate in the adaptation. , instead of holding the illusion of "hand over the film and television to professional people, they must be better than me".
