I dunno, I liked the addition of the ‘let’s run away to Alpha Centauri!’ stuff and also the little added backstory of Crowley helping to design nebulas in GO1. I thought they were good additions to the story this version of GO was telling and I could also imagine maybe applying it to Book Canon in a way. But, well, it's just… for a character originally defined by his Iove for Earth…
It just started feeling kinda weird to me that the longer TV Omens kept going, it felt like the whole Starmaker and Alpha Centauri gradually got more and more focus and by some point it started feeling like it was subsuming other important aspects of his personality?
Especially in GO3, which seemed to conclude that all of his positive traits were a result of him being ‘an artist’ as a Starmaker, and then the one personality trait Professor Anthony shares with Crowley, the one thing that’s supposed to immediately tell us he's a reincarnation or some sort of Cosmic Echo, is the fact that they both love Star stuff. Nothing else was needed apparently.
It's just... as a huge fan of Book Crowley, it just feels pretty disappointing how little of the original character I could see there by the end.
