It feels like we’ve been waiting centuries for Amazon’s Good Omens to put out a trailer, so we’re weeping for joy that the day has finally come. Check it out:
Here’s the synopsis for the series:
Fussy angel and rare book dealer Aziraphale and fast living demon Crowley have lived amongst Earth’s mortals since The Beginning and have grown rather fond of the lifestyle and of each other. So it’s really terrible news for both of them that, if Heaven and Hell have their way, the world will end on Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. Just before dinner. The armies of Good and Evil are amassing, Atlantis has risen, tempers are flaring. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are ready to ride. Everything appears to be going according to Divine Plan. Expect that someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist.
Good Omens is based on the 1990 novel of the same name by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman, and is set to air on Amazon Prime Video in 2019.
