pocketsizeizzyhands asked: Hey Mr Gaiman! I absolutely adore Good Omens. I have watched it so many times. I was wondering if apart from amazon prime video was there any other way to watch the show legitimately because I can’t watch it on amazon, since the videos are not available on my country, and I want to support the show because it is truly a masterpiece. So how can I make my views count?
Are you sure you don’t have Prime Video where you are? Right now, the only places that don’t have it are Mainland China, Cuba, Iran, North Korea and Syria per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_Video. (Which makes me wonder how we are getting so many people watching it in Mainland China.)
I am from mainland China. Personally living abroad right now and watched the series through Prime subscription, though my friends back home generally have these options to watch the series:
1) Pirate download, since most people don’t have any other means to get the material. We also have groups voluntarily translating the subtitles into Chinese, enabling it to reach a wider audience. (But we do want to watch it legally!! Very much!!! Many people love the book and the TV series with utmost passion. Many friends of mine have already bought the script and the companion book.)
2) Connect to VPNs or other proxies to change the IP address, so we can stream it on Prime with a foreign IP.
That’s fascinating. Thank you!
