The main creative lineup alone is enough to make many people exclaim, what kind of immortal lineup is this?
David Tennant vs. McSinn is not finished, and Jon Hamm, Francis McDormand, Benedict Cumberbatch and many other acquaintances have joined...
The drama was jointly launched by Amazon and BBC, which is also a strong union. A total of 6 episodes, released at one time. Of course, another major attraction is that the original novel of the play is also very famous, the book is composed
Neil Gaiman (American Gods) and Terry Pratchett (The Disc World) are also a very popular fantasy novel.
The book has a spoof flavor, including the title of the book, you can also feel that this is a parody of the classic horror film "The Omen", but people are good signs. It is still the Son of Satan who has come to earth with the task of destroying the world. But everything seems to have changed, and the boy is named Adam, and he doesn't want to destroy the world.
And Michael Sheen's Angel and David Tennant's Demon Crowley also have their own ideas, and even, they both enjoy their current lives, and they have become good friends, occasionally drinking, replacing each other's classes, and complaining about each other's leadership (God and Satan).
Therefore, the interaction between the two will also become an important point of view of the story, and some netizens are ready to snort the CP of angels and devils.
The story also unfolds on this basis. Neil Gaiman will also serve as the show's writer and producer. Jon Hamm starred as archangel Gabriel, Benny voiced Satan, and Francis McDormand voiced God.
In fact, the show has been evaluated, Rotten Tomatoes 75% freshness, may only be considered to be a fair performance.
However, because of such a lineup and setting, I still want to see it!

Netflix's new drama "Colored Glasses" also chose to start broadcasting on May 31, a total of four episodes, released throughout the season.
The story of the show comes from the influential "Gang of Five in Central Park", in 1989, when a white woman was raped in Central Park, followed by the imprisonment of five black and Latino youths, provided that the evidence was seriously insufficient. At that time, the media also hyped up the incident, attacking several marginalized youths.
Until 2002, the real murderer was brought to justice, and the five people were released, which became a very famous unjust case. However, they have served many years in prison.
A few years ago, there was a documentary "Five Criminals in Central Park" launched, detailing the incident, and won many awards and nominations that year.
The American drama "Colored Glasses" will reproduce that event in the form of a drama, directed by black director Ava Deyole ("Selma", "Thirteenth Amendment"), which has also become a popular drama this year, and racial topics and unjust cases will be the keywords of this drama.
In addition, the addition of Vera Farmiga, Felicity Hoffman, John Regizamo, Nancy Nash, etc., will also add a lot to the show.

Yes, this set of dramas also started on the 31st, and it is the one I most want to see among these three sets of dramas.
The show is from DC, swamp monsters are DC's superheroes. According to Baidu Encyclopedia: The swamp monster, whose real name is Alec Holland, was originally a scientist, due to a secret experiment in the swamp, accidentally detonated a bomb, causing his body and the swamp to merge into one, turning into a half-human, half-plant monster that can control plants, and later join the Dark Justice League.
Yes, this drama will also be a big play anti-hero routine, horror and fantasy meme.
Including, you can also see the hint from the lineup.
For example, Wen Ziren, the horror film director that everyone loves, will serve as the supervising producer of this film. The director of the Tales of the Night series, Len Wiseman, directed the first two episodes of the show.
Including the screenwriting team of this film, Gary Doberman is the screenwriter of the "Annabelle" series and the "Joker Returns" series, so this drama is also an iron heart to do super-powered horror dramas.
Superhero dramas that appear in the form of horror dramas are still somewhat interesting.
