David Tennant Defends 'Good Omens' From Accusations Of Blasphemy: “People are very keen to be offended” - Infosec.Pub

“People are very keen to be offended,” says Good Omens star David Tennant. Ah, he’s been on the internet at least once, I see.

I haven’t seen it but I’m sure it’s about as reverent as every other show out there. Frankly, who cares?

I get the feeling some choices in the adaptation were made specifically to annoy conservatives.

I’m ok with that.

I would go as far as to say the show is ham fisted about its political stances; it barely attempts to be subtle.
Is there any particular reason it needs to be subtle? It’s ok for art to have a political stance.

Doesn’t need to be subtle. It’s usually a smart business decision though.

In this case, Tennant’s claim that “people are very keen to be offended” isn’t very convincing. The show illustrates multiple contradictions within the bible.

If I was offended by this, it might even feel like Tennant’s statement come off as gas-lighty, but I don’t, so… lol.
