Are you itching for some heavenly (or hellish) updates on the most mismatched celestial buddy comedy to hit your screen? Look no further. We’ve scoured every nook and cranny of the internet, sifted through rumors, and even consulted Agnes Nutter’s prophecies (well, not really) to bring you the most comprehensive update on Good Omens Season 2. Buckle up, folks—things are about to get apocalyptic.
The Renewal Saga: To Be or Not To Be?
Official word is—there’s no official word! That’s right, despite the buzz, and let’s admit, the prayers of fans worldwide, there is no definitive statement about a Season 2.
“We know this question is bothering all the fans of Good Omens,” says a source from Amazfeed, “and everyone is looking for an answer to this question.”
Season 1 ended in May 2019, and we’ve all been on celestial tenterhooks since. However, the production studio of Good Omens dropped hints in June 2021, announcing that our much-beloved series “will be returning for season 2.” But that’s as vague as a prophecy.
Heavenly Cast, Infernal Wait: What We Know So Far
The show is nothing without its divine duo—Michael Sheen as Aziraphale and David Tennant as Crowley. Their chemistry in Season 1 was about as volatile and exciting as a chemical experiment in Hell’s lab. We’ve been told to expect the return of our favorite characters if the series renews, including Daniel Mays, Sian Brooke, Ned Dennehy, and Ariyon Bakare in supporting roles.
“In case Good Omens returns for Season 2, it will continue with the storyline of Season 1 but will have different plot twists,” reports Amazfeed.
But what will these twists entail? Our curiosity is on the brink of unholy levels.

Fans Desperate for Spoilers, but Heaven and Hell are Tight-lipped
Despite the earth-shattering success of Season 1, there’s nothing but celestial silence when it comes to spoilers.
Even the ever-reliable Amazfeed states, “it is no longer necessary to assume the spoiler at this time.”
Is the secrecy a strategy, or are the scriptwriters as in the dark as we are? As Aziraphale would say, “Oh dear.”
Ratings, Reviews, and Prophetic Hints for Season 2
Good Omens swept the ratings off the charts, boasting an 8.8/10 on IMDb and a 90% average audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The show has been hailed as “incredibly funny, cleverly crafted, and perfectly cast,” with lighthearted humor deftly countering the show’s somewhat apocalyptic overtones.
“Looking towards the popularity of this series, the show makers would definitely like to come back with Season 2,” suggests Amazfeed.
Our best guess aligns with them; it might feature six episodes and is expected to release either in late 2022 or early 2023.
Don’t Miss the Show: Where to Catch Up
If you’re a latecomer to the Good Omens party, you can binge-watch all of Season 1, which comprises six episodes, on Amazon Prime Video. And trust us, it’s worth every heavenly minute.
Final Toast: Watch This Space
So, whether you’re an angel, a demon, or just a human who enjoys watching otherworldly entities bumble through Armageddon, keep your eyes glued to this space. Any announcements from the celestial or infernal realms will be reported here, post-haste. As Crowley and Aziraphale would say, here’s “a toast to the world.” Cheers!
