I hated season 2 yet I require season 3. Neat trick.

[gettyupcowboy]

I despised S2. It didn’t have a plot.

[craww]

Precisely what I've said. It doesn't have a plot so much as a series of conceits. Very bad fanfic vibes.

It was the television equivalent of this meeting could’ve been an email.

[picturemegone]

A League of Their Own and now this smh

[melancolour]

ooooh it sounds like s2 was good? Bless Neil Gaiman for being able to help deliver more Good Omens content to us that's actually good! I will watch, but probably not for another couple of weeks.

It was very different from season 1, and yet I really loved it the same

[jaequeeragenda]

Season 2 is pure romcom imo,my fave season. No kids and no hets

[gettyupcowboy]

No it wasn’t. there was zero plot.

[siaht]

My heart fucking stopped I thought this was about season 3 holy shit

But yeah we knew about season 4, it was never in the plans to begin with

[siaht]

Also I cannot wrap my head around having to wait 3 or 4 years for S03 provided the renewal happens this year.

Neil said on Tumblr that he has most of it written and the only things keeping him from getting it underway are the strike and not having the green light from Amazon yet. Still, he said they would be filming it in 2024, and that post-production would take THE ENTIRETY OF 2025, so release date would be 2026 at the earliest. Like, I know Good Omens is very CGI heavy but I just cannot fathom it taking a whole year to be done.

So yeah I've been really thinking that I need to not fucking die in the next 3 or 4 years because god help me if I go before the finale drops. I will not be a happy person in hell.

I don't think it needed a second season. the first season resolved everything just fine

I also feel weird about them recasting beelzebub, I guess because they didn't think the person portraying her was hot enough for hamm? idk

[nutella_forever]

Apparently there was a scheduling conflict, so they had to recast

[squirrels_oh_no]

She had contractual obligations and wasn't available during filming.
