GOOD OMENS Final Season Will Be Just a Single 90-Minute Episode

As a dedicated fan of Neil Gaiman and Good Omens for years, I must admit this news has left me feeling like Aziraphale and Crowley stumbling into a deserted wasteland after a cosmic catastrophe. The idea of a truncated conclusion to such an enchanting series feels like a cruel twist in the grand tapestry of storytelling.


Recently, Neil Gaiman announced his departure from “Good Omens”‘ third and final season after production halted due to sexual assault allegations against him. However, this did not assure the Amazon Prime Video series would continue. Now, we learn that the show will proceed without him, but it will conclude more swiftly than many fans anticipated. Rather than a full season of television, “Good Omens” will come to an end with a solitary 90-minute episode.

According to Variety, the Prime Video series adaptation of the 1990 novel co-written by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett is set to conclude its story. This decision comes amidst ongoing, serious allegations against Gaiman, which had left the show’s ending in question. Amazon has chosen to adapt the third and final season, based on the sequel novel that the two authors had planned but never wrote, into a feature-length farewell instead of a full season. When filming resumes early next year in Scotland, it will be for the production of a one-and-a-half-hour finale episode.

As a gaming enthusiast, I’ve got some news about the show we all love – it seems that Neil Gaiman had a hand in crafting its final episode in the past, but unfortunately, he won’t be there during filming this time around. Additionally, his name is no longer listed among the executive producers.

As a devoted fan, I must express my disappointment with this brief farewell for “Good Omens.” However, it’s reassuring to know that the series is concluding, unlike other Gaiman-linked projects that have been terminated or left in limbo. This concise ending offers a sense of closure for fans and the dedicated crew, while also acknowledging the serious allegations against the show’s key figure.
