The Them AREN’T aged up, but they’re PLAYED by 17-and 18-year olds trying to be passed off as “eleven”
Aziraphale is cast as an older, overweight actor and the fandom reacts by starting to ship Crowley with Newt
Aziraphale and Crowley are cast as very talented actors of color who are perfect for the roles and perform them flawlessly but the fandom reacts by pulling a TFA and zeroing in the only white guy/white guy ship in the cast and now 80% of the new fandom content is Pollution/Famine

They replace the Bentley with a muscle car because an antique Bentley doesn’t look “cool” enough
Crowley wears a skirt but it’s treated like a joke and Aziraphale makes transmisogynistic comments
Crowley and Aziraphale lean in to kiss at the Ritz but then pull back and scoff at how silly it would be if two males were involved that way.
There’s a joke thrown in with something about ancient Rome or something but it’s clear the writers are uncomfortable with the chemistry and try to diffuse romantic tension.
Anathema doesn’t actually want to have sex with Newt but Newt pressures her into having sex with him “because of the prophecies”
No Queen in the soundtrack
People start shipping Agnes Nutter and Thou-Shalt-Not-Commit-Adultery Pulsifer
I just love the headcanon that Crowley says this line because he plays video games. Like imagine it.
When Pacman first becomes popular all the machines in the area have the highscore menu dominated by AJC and 666 and other variations
He has one of those systems with the joysticks and games on casettes and tries to make Aziraphale play Battle Tanks with him
He buys a Gameboy color ostensibly because he needs to be familiar with it for the purpose of encouraging mass consumerism, but in reality he has copies of both Pokemon Red and Blue because he wants the version-exclusives.
Skyrim comes out and he spends 3 solid days straight playing it because he LITERALLY does not need to eat, sleep, or use the loo
He plays Overwatch and tanks that don’t protect their healers find themselves mysteriously booted off because their connection is malfunctioning. Especially if they keep spamming “i need healing” at user SnakeMan666
