Rejoice: 'Good Omens' Will Officially Return For a Third & Final Season
It's true that the Ineffable Plan can occasionally grind exceedingly slowly, but wow does it ever come through in the clutch sometimes. After months of handwringing, speculation, and rumors that the show was definitely probably almost certainly coming back, Prime Video has finally made it official: Good Omens will be returning for a third and final season.
The popular adaptation of Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett's beloved novel aired its second season back in July, and fans have been on pins and needles ever since wondering whether they'd get the chance to see the resolution to its devastating emotional cliffhanger played out onscreen. (It's likely that multiple apology dances are needed, is what I'm saying.)
Season 2, among other things, saw the subtextual romance between the angel Aziraphale (Michael Sheen) and the demon Crowley (David Tennant) finally become text on screen, ending with a desperate kiss between the pair and a painful separation. Desperate to change things Above, Aziraphale accepts a promotion to Supreme Archangel of Heaven and leaves Crowley behind when the demon refuses to return to the celestial realm with him. Between their heartbreaking goodbye and the looming threat of the Second Coming, things don't exactly end in a great place for our faves --- or the world at large.
