WATCH: It’s been officially confirmed Good Omens will not be returning

July 5th, 2026 by Marc Comments

The official Good Omens X page has confirmed that the series is over and will not be returning.

While we knew that the series was planned for three seasons – including the drastically shortened finale due to accusations made against showrunner and co-creator Neil Gaiman – it’s not set in stone, as, I suppose, it should be, that the adventures of Aziraphale and Crowley have officially come to an end.

Taking to X, the account wrote: As the lights go down one last time at AZ Fell & Co, we would like to thank you all for joining us on this ineffable journey.

AZ Fell & Co is the bookshop owned by Michael Sheen’s Aziraphale (AZ Fell, geddit?) in the show.

While the series lasted for three seasons, it was based on a single novel written by the genius Terry Pratchett and Gaiman, and, to be brutally honest, when the storyline of the novel ended in season one, the series should have called it a day too.

Originally based on Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman’s international best-selling novel, Good Omens 2 explores storylines that go beyond the original source material to illuminate the ineffable friendship between Aziraphale (Michael Sheen), a fussy angel and rare-book dealer, and the fast-living demon Crowley (David Tennant)”.

“Having been on Earth since The Beginning, and with the Apocalypse thwarted, the duo are getting back to easy living amongst mortals in London’s Soho. That is, until the archangel Gabriel (Jon Hamm) turns up unexpectedly at the door of Aziraphale’s bookshop with no memory of who he is or how he got there.

While Crowley is leery as to why the archangel has come to the bookshop, Aziraphale is keen to solve the mystery behind Gabriel’s condition. However, hiding the archangel from both Heaven and Hell quickly disrupts their lives in unforeseen ways. To solve this mystery and thwart Heaven and Hell in the process, the duo will need more than a miracle; they’ll need to once again rely on each other.

The series stars Michael Sheen, David Tennant, Jon Hamm, Doon Mackichan, Gloria Obianyo, Miranda Richardson, Maggie Service, Nina Sosanyam, Liz Carr, Quelin Sepulveda, and Shelley Conn.

Good Omens concluded May 13th, 2026.

The adventure of a million lifetimes is coming has come to an end.

He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
