I've seen people in the comments talking about queerbaiting in Good Omens once again which is MAKING ME FURIOUS
Maybe some of you don't remember the queerbaiting times with supernatural, merlin and sherlock (don't come at me, I truly love these shows)- so please be so kind and stop that.
This show has brought me so much joy (and pain) BECAUSE you can clearly see a distinction between Good Omens and e.g. Sherlock by how the actors and writers adress queer topics and just in general the tone of the series.
So it pains me to see how over the last years the word "queerbaiting" has been used VERY generously and especially MISUSED.
@neil-gaiman is a wonderful person so please don't accuse him of queerbaiting if you disliked the last episode because on the topic of real queer representation Neil Gaiman, Michael Sheen and David Tennant clearly delivered and slayed.
go and educate yourself before you say something mean on the internet
