Curiosity peaks when timing raises eyebrows. Just over a week after Neil Gaiman took to social media to dismiss renewed allegations against him, Prime Video dropped the news we’ve all been itching to know: the airdate for Good Omens season three.
Come May 13, viewers will finally witness whether the demon Crowley and the angel Aziraphale, portrayed by David Tennant and Michael Sheen, can bridge their cosmic differences.

Is This Really the End for Good Omens?
The anticipation was always there. What began as an ambitious full third season of Good Omens—rooted in the beloved novel by Gaiman and Terry Pratchett—has transformed into a single 90-minute special. The decision to scale back emerged after the allegations against Gaiman came into focus last September, causing him to step back from what many considered his brainchild.
As days turned into months without a whisper of news, Michael Sheen himself expressed doubts on social media. Would season three ever actually air? Today’s teaser suggests Prime Video believes the time has come.
How Will Fans React to the New Season?
Fans are bound to feel a mix of excitement and hesitation. The gripping finale of season two left many hanging, yearning to know whether an angel can find happiness with a demon—and perhaps stave off another apocalypse in the process.
Yet, the shadow of Gaiman’s controversies lingers, clouding what could be a straightforward celebration of creativity. Even a beloved title like Good Omens can echo with discomfort in the wake of such allegations. Have you heard anyone buzzing about Sandman season two lately? I didn’t think so. The question looms: if you adored Good Omens once, does the current climate dampen your enthusiasm for its return on May 13?
