I do love that they make it a lot more obvious without the couple of gay jokes that the 30-year-old book stuffs in there. Speaking of... My other half loved the show (this from the man I am usually referring to as 'Darcy' because he is an unrepentant snob when it comes to anything TV/movie related), but did remark that Michael Sheen's performance as Aziraphale was a little OTT. At which point I whipped out the book and read him the bit about 'gayer than a tree full of monkeys on nitrous oxide'. He conceded the point that MS was clearly just playing the part as it was written. :)
Apparently their petition complains about how "an angel and a demon are good friends", so they either haven't seen it or it went completely over their heads. That's hilarious. And considering that they think it's on Netflix, presumably they haven't seen any...
The tweet very nearly killed me. Except I am already dead because of this. But the tweet made me do a lot of the same undignified noises.
