Good Omens S3 trailer sets up a blessed conclusion
In 2024, we learned that the third and final season of Good Omens wouldn't be a full slate of episodes like the prior two seasons. In the wake of allegations of sexual assault against creator Neil Gaiman, the streaming platform decided to go with a single 90-minute episode to wrap things up—the equivalent of a TV movie. (Gaiman continues to deny the allegations but stepped back from the project.) Now we have the official trailer to get us ready for the big finale next month. (Spoilers for the first two seasons below.) As reported previously , the series is based on the original 1990 novel by Gaiman and the late Terry Pratchett . Good Omens is the story of an angel, Aziraphale (Michael Sheen), and a demon, Crowley (David Tennant), who gradually become friends over the millennia and team up to avert Armageddon. Season 2 found Aziraphale and Crowley getting back to normal, when the archangel Gabriel (Jon Hamm) turned up unexpectedly at the door of Aziraphale’s bookshop with no memory of who he was or how he got there. The duo had to evade the combined forces of Heaven and Hell to solve the mystery of what happened to Gabriel and why. Read full article Comments
Prime Video’s supernatural comedy will end with a special 90-minute final episode.
(Spoilers for the first two seasons below.)
In the cliffhanger S2 finale, the pair discovered that Gabriel had defied Heaven and refused to support a second attempt to bring about Armageddon. He hid his own memories from himself to evade detection. Oh, and he and Beelzebub (Shelley Conn) had fallen in love. They ran off together, and the Metatron (Derek Jacobi) offered Aziraphale Gabriel’s old job. That’s when Crowley professed his own love for the angel and asked him to leave Heaven and Hell behind, too. Aziraphale wanted Crowley to join him in Heaven instead. So Crowley kissed him, and they parted. Once Aziraphale got to Heaven, he learned his task was to bring about the Second Coming.
I guess the folks at Prime Video are worried nobody remembers anything about the first two seasons since it’s been so long, because the trailer comes with what just might be the longest, most detailed synopsis I’ve yet encountered:
