I’ve seen many posts about callbacks in Good Omens episodes so here’s one I noticed in S2:
When the demons attack the bookshop Crowley stops them by, as he tells Aziraphale, “making up a regulation they’re too stupid to check.”
Five thousand years earlier Crowley told Aziraphale he had a permit allowing him to destroy Job’s property. Aziraphale responded by going to Heaven’s records department to confirm it was true. He checked.
Ninety minutes doesn’t feel like long enough but to put it into perspective remember that Jemima only had five lines.
The most unrealistic part of Star Trek isn’t the humanoid aliens or the transporter or the holodeck. It’s that Starfleet officers never swap stories about the weirdest alien species they’ve shagged.
I’m finally watching The Haunting of Hill House and the reveal of the identity of Bent Neck Lady 😱

If you see this you’re legally obligated to reblog and tag with the book you’re currently reading
Prince LeStat by Anne rice
Dracula
Pride and Prejudice
Rooted by Lyanda Lynn Haupt (Neverwhere has been put on hold for obvious reasons)
Transit of Venus by Rowan Metcalfe
I enjoyed Kaos but still don’t understand WHY the Trojan 7 sabotaged the monument. As a prince of Troy, the great Hector’s only son, you’d think Astyanax would have come up with resistance more inspiring than horse shit and graffiti.

If River is Luke Skywalker I guess that makes Lamb Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Medieval scribes writing things like “fuck the abbot” (their boss) and “I am so hung over I feel dead” and “that goddamn cat got in here and pissed on the manuscript” and drawing penis monsters and purposefully unflattering portraits of public figures and animals in the marginalia is funny, yes. But more than that it is so deeply quintessentially human. It reminds you that they were largely just frustrated young adults who did an extremely repetitive and tedious job 6 days a week during daylight hours in poor conditions and felt the same malaise young adults feel now.
"This parchment is very hairy" is my favorite. That poor scribe, trying to write on hairy parchment, so annoyed.
Don’t scare me like that, Molly is my favourite character
So…the young woman Chapman extracted from Les Arbres is River’s mother & the assassin David Cartwright killed in his bathroom, Bernard, is (was) River’s brother through their shared father Frank Harkness. Right?
I’ve started listening to the Good Omens full cast production and have found more Nanny Ashtoreth lullabies.
I’m one episode away from finishing season 3 of Slow Horses and then I’ll start season 4. It is as good is people say even if it doesn’t make sense to me that Slough House is always the choice of MI5 for sensitive operations, given that other agents are also considered disposable.
