![]() ![]() ![]() I remember Terry talking about the idea of a skyscraper, with the guys in hell just down in the basement and the angels on the top floors. But a couple of opposition arguments got airtime as well, including one (which I have no intention of linking to here) by known transphobic pundit Sarah Ditum, which basically argued that because. ![]() ![]() “One of the things that we decided on right from the word ‘go’ is, we needed angels, we needed to see hell-which we never see in -and we needed to see heaven. “We started talking back in 89 about what we would do if we were telling this story as a movie or as TV,” he told me. These show inventions are, like nearly everything else, yet another way for Gaiman to honor Pratchett. Hell, on the other hand, is another set of offices, their own drippy, dank, fluorescent-lit nightmare. In the Amazon show, heaven is seen as an antiseptic, joyless corporation in the sky led by Jon Hamm’s smug and intolerable angel Gabriel. And though the petition never mentions the show’s depictions of heaven and hell, which do not appear in the novel, it’s not hard to imagine them objecting to them, either. “Terry would have loved the nuns,” Gaiman says in this new video. Then there are the “groups of Satanic ‘nuns’ that are chosen to raise the Antichrist,” as the petition puts it. “God is voiced by a woman,” the petition complains. That raised the hackles of the protesting Christian group. ![]()
