The apocalypse is on the schedule, and the two beings best placed to stop it would mostly like to keep their lunch plans. That's the setup of Good Omens, Prime Video's fantasy series starring Michael Sheen as Aziraphale, an angel who runs a Soho bookshop, and David Tennant as Crowley, a demon with the kind of closet Anna Wintour might envy. Two charismatic leads who have been quietly covering for each other since Eden, and aren't particularly thrilled that Heaven and Hell want to end the world they've gotten comfortable in. The show adapts Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman's 1990 novel of the same name, blending two genres most TV series refuse to touch. It's a fairly odd couple tale with a supernatural tinge and just enough dark comedy to give the whole thing color. The full run is just 13 episodes split into two seasons plus a 90-minute finale that dropped this past May. You can easily finish it in a weekend, and it's so good, you'll want to.
