Amazon announced a renewal for Good Omens’ third and final season this Thursday. This surreal dramedy follows the exploits of angel Aziraphale (Michael Sheen) and demon Crowley (David Tennant), now exiled from Heaven and Hell, respectively, as they work together to stave off the apocalypse. Check out a statement from Neil Gaiman, co-author of Good Omens alongside the late Terry Pratchett:
“I’m so happy finally to be able to finish the story Terry and I plotted in 1989 and in 2006. Terry was determined that if we made Good Omens for television, we could take the story all the way to the end. Season One was all about averting Armageddon, dangerous prophecies, and the End of the World. Season Two was sweet and gentle, although it may have ended less joyfully than a certain Angel and Demon might have hoped. Now in Season Three, we will deal once more with the end of the world. The plans for Armageddon are going wrong. Only Crowley and Aziraphale working together can hope to put it right. And they aren’t talking.”
Vernon Sanders, Amazon MGM Studios head of television had this to add: “Good Omens has checked every box for a clever, witty, and funny comedy that not only made it a success on Prime Video, but also made ‘goodness’ watchable and fun thanks to Neil and Terry’s immense creativity. The final season is sure to be packed with the same dynamic energy that our global customers have come to enjoy.”
