Married ... With ‘Good Omens’ turns Revelations into a comic romp

BY KEVIN MCDONOUGH Angels and demons and all that jazz, the new cosmic comic fantasy “Good Omens” begins streaming today on Amazon Prime. Based on a popular 1990 novel by prolific authors Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, it imagines the biblical end times compli- cated by the incompetence of celestial forces who have grown just a little too fond of Earth to want to see it turned into a lake of fire. David Tennant makes the most of his role as Crowley, otherwise known as Satan himself, the guy who tempted Eve with an apple and has been with us ever since. He’s a snake-eyed hipster, as louche as a rock star and as flippantly stylish as an Ed- wardian dandy. He’s having a blast. Over the eons, he’s struck up an odd alliance with Azi- raphale (Michael Sheen), a rather fussy and tentative angel. He’s just as addicted to the good life as Crowley, but is too goody-goody to admit it. He runs an antiquarian bookshop in London, loves classical music and can’t stand the thought of the tri- EPK.TV / CHRIS RAPHAEL / AMAZON umph of Heaven, where “The Michael Sheen, left, stars as Aziraphale and David Tennant as Crowley in “Good Omens,” now streaming on Amazon Prime.
