This is one moving love story. Last episode of season two, I was watching through my fingers, knowing what would happen but denying it. It's so horrible. Crowley. Actually the kindest, softest, most angelic one of the two... He'll have to stay in a place way worse than Hell. My heart aches. And Aziraphaele still blindly devoted and clueless... But he'll know what Hell means too, I can tell you that... and he will so deserve it! As much as I love him, he's such an idiot...

This show NEEDS a third season. Anyone who reads this, help in anyway you can. Have people, family, friends, colleagues, followers... watch it by all means necessary. And review! People in charge. Please, don't cancel this show, just please. I love these guys so much, I couldn't stand it if their story just ended like this because, well, audience and money...

PS: I need to extend my review after watching a second time, without a pause between the two seasons. In all honesty, I was so smitten by the love story and so shocked by the ending that I granted10 stars although I thought to myself "season one was better crafted and more sparkling. Our beloved Terry is obviously gone." I'm no so sure anymore. Watching the whole story in one go and maybe watching *again*, carefully, with a sharper mind, I realized that I had missed A LOT of VERY IMPORTANT things. The show is actually it quite consistant throughout. So much so that when I began reading the book today, I actually expected to find Crowley and Aziraphale setting the universe into motion. Of course, had Terry been there to refine things in his very personnal, unrivaled, brilliant ways, well... If someone knows how to summon him... Anyways, I don't think he's turning in his grave. I'm sure he's proud.

Lastly, I wanted to say that I'm not mad at Aziraphale anymore. I can see things from his point of view now. He is oblivious because he is who he is, obviously, but also because he has less information than Crowley. I have a theory as to how Crowley just KNOWS that things won't work out for them in Heaven.

Ah. A bit of advice. If you're going to watch again, don't think it will be less painful. You'll only end up more traumatized.
