soc_puppet: Dreamsheep as Lumpy Space Princess from Adventure Time (Default)
Made it through the Good Omens TV series for a second time finally. It was really too much brain and too heavy a theme for me right now, but apparently I was committed. I'll have to pick something lighter to watch next. Or maybe just switch entirely to podcasts? Hrm.

Anyway, something that stuck out at me from the first time I watched Good Omens was this little bit of Pepper's dialogue towards the end:

Right after War (portrayed as a woman in Good Omens) tells Pepper to go home and play with her dolls, Pepper responds with, "I do not endorse everyday sexism."

Seconds later, she says to War, "I believe in peace, bitch."

I mean. Did no one on the production notice that? Really? Or was that some sort of extremely weird, deliberate choice?

(There's probably lots of folks who have already talked that little exchange to bits and I've missed it since it's not my main fandom; it's just been bugging me too much not to say anything myself.)

Anyway, other than that, it remains a delightful production and quite a good show, if not exactly what I'm in the mood for with Pestilence making a comeback and giving Pollution a run for its money after all.
