Hot Take: 1992! GO is not that bad
So I know this script is the stuff of hell and hellfire but I'm going to be honest. I really fuck with it. I like that there's no Shadwell or Newt, nobody's favorite character. Honestly I found those two characters just to be filler, and annoying. Skip over their part every time I re-read GO.
I like that Crowley is a proper demon who absolutely is spot on about humans for the most part. The clowns and Satan crack me up and I much prefer that over the bike riding horsemen. IFYYK about what Anathema does in 1992, it's so freaking metal.
It's corny with Crowley and the club, imps waiting drinks and just the sleaze of a 1990s thriller movie mixed with clique hell motifs like black candles to talk to hell. I love it. Like a bad spin off of Devil's Advocate.
Maybe it's because I don't care either way if Crowley and Azi end up as a couple but I much prefer the slightly nuttiness of 1992 GO. Though I will always have a soft heart for Sir Pratchett's quips in the Book!GO. I think the 1992 GO has good bones, just needs some tweaking.
