I liked Good Omens a lot, but yeah, I feel I would've liked it more if it was all Pratchett.

Yeah, I preferred Gaiman works myself, although I'm guessing we won't see much more of them in future.

I liked it better than either of them alone. Discworld feels too flippant for me, and too whiplashy when it suddenly wants to be Super Serious About The World. Gaiman's writing is so constantly up its own ass about the ~power of stories~ that it often makes the actual story he's telling loose stakes, because hey, it's a story, so the power to do anything is always there, isn't it so meta and clever.

Good Omens manages to mix them together in a way that actually balances the light-hearted zaniness and the big moral questions in a way that holds together instead of going off the rails. (never finished the TV show tho, just remembering why I liked the book. didn't dislike the TV show, just not great at keeping up with TV)
