I really agree. The Them didn't feel like friends at all, and I was disappointed in the horsemen.

I love Aziraphale and Crowley but honestly part of me feels like the series tried so hard to pander to that side of the fandom that the show ended up shafting literally every other character. Aziraphale and Crowley are great and their relationship is great, but they can't carry the story alone and I felt like everyone else in the show was an afterthought which just killed the larger plot -- Good Omens doesn't work if Adam and the Them aren't believable.

Yup. They were so flat! Anathema was, as well. It was disappointing.

By the last episode I'd honestly forgotten all about Newt and Anathema, they were so flat and they just felt oddly pointless. The Horsemen were dull too, I think it was a bad choice to just show them each once while introducing them. I really liked how the book had them show up in bits and pieces earlier and let the reader figure out on their own who these people really are, which made them feel less like an afterthought.

Yes.
And then when they were actually *being* horsemen, they were just...dull. I kept waiting for War's teeth to look 'like bullets', for them to just have some *presence*! Death was just....*boring*!
*sigh*

Newt and Shadwell were boring in the book, so i wasn't much interested in them in the show (and they were boring in the show, too), and yeah - Anathema and Newt kinda just fizzled.

Oh, well - a lot of people love it, Crowley and Axiriphale were fun, so i'll take it.

They did though, I read somewhere that someone (the actors maybe) went and read fanfic and tried to act the characters more in a way that the fandom would just eat it up.
