Unveiling the Unanswered: 10 Burning Questions Good Omens Season 3 Must Finally Resolve

Warning: The following contains spoilers from Good Omens season 2.

Summary

Season 3 of Good Omens will delve deeper into the evolving bond between Aziraphale and Crowley, eventually culminating in their union.

The portrayal of The Metatron's involvement in Aziraphale's ascension to the rank of Supreme Archangel may not be straightforward, but rather a clever ploy.

The Second Coming will have a significant role in Season 3, with Aziraphale and Crowley being involved. There may also be the return of additional characters like Nina and Maggie, who will provide advice to Crowley.

Season 2 of Good Omens ended on a heartbreaking note, with Aziraphale ascending to Heaven and Crowley driving away in despair. As for Season 3, it remains uncertain whether Prime Video will renew the series. However, creator and showrunner Neil Gaiman has assured fans that if Season 3 doesn't happen, he will write a novel instead. He has also confirmed that Season 4 will not be happening, making Season 3 the show's conclusion.

10 Will Aziraphale & Crowley End Up Together?

In Season 3, the anticipated continuation of Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett's original sequel, the dynamic between Aziraphale and Crowley will be further explored. In the finale of Season 2, Crowley courageously admitted his romantic feelings to his best friend and celestial adversary, Aziraphale, taking the advice of Nina from Give Me Coffee Or Give Me Death and Maggie from the record shop. This revelation came amidst the surprising declarations of love from Beelzebub and Gabriel, causing upheaval in both Heaven and Hell as they departed Earth. If Season 3 moves forward, it will mark the conclusion of the series, raising significant questions that need to be addressed.

In the conclusion of Good Omens Season 2, Aziraphale makes a proposition to Crowley: if they both return to Heaven, Aziraphale will restore Crowley's angelic status. However, Crowley is quick to remind Aziraphale of the havoc that Heaven has caused in the past and will continue to cause in the future. In a surprising turn of events, Crowley then shares their first kiss in the show, leaving Aziraphale deeply affected. In response, Aziraphale utters the words, "I forgive you." This heart-wrenching cliffhanger leaves their friendship in a fragile state, and Season 3 is expected to explore the complexities of repairing the damage. While it is likely that Aziraphale and Crowley will reconcile and potentially end up together by the end of Season 3, the journey to get there will require significant effort.

9 Was The Metatron Tricking Aziraphale Into Becoming The Supreme Archangel?

Derek Jacobi, portraying The Metatron, assumes the divine voice of God, making a fleeting appearance in Season 1 as a ethereal projection to deliver God's message when Aziraphale attempts to contact Heaven. However, in Season 2, The Metatron takes on a much more significant role, returning to cast out Gabriel and appoint Aziraphale as the Supreme Archangel. Given the show's warning about the perils of Heaven, it is unlikely that The Metatron is all that he appears to be. Hence, this newfound position for Aziraphale could potentially be a deceitful trap, as Crowley had warned him in the finale.

8 Will Aziraphale Really Be Able To Change Heaven?

Although Aziraphale currently holds the esteemed title of Supreme Archangel, it's difficult to discount his inclination to do good while residing in Heaven. The flashbacks in Season 2 shed light on Aziraphale's constant struggle to resist acts of kindness wherever he traverses. Perhaps, he could emulate Crowley's example and mentor a few of the lesser angels in Heaven. Alternatively, Aziraphale might be confronted with significant changes that will shape the future of Michael (Doon Mackichan), Uriel (Gloria Obianyo), and the newly introduced Saraqael (Liz Carr).

7 Where Is Crowley Now That Aziraphale Is Gone?

6 What Does The Second Coming Mean For Aziraphale and Crowley?

Season 2 of Good Omens saw Crowley residing in the confines of his car as he frequented Aziraphale's quaint bookshop. However, the gripping finale witnessed Crowley embarking on an enigmatic journey to an undisclosed destination, his face etched with a blend of anger and heartache. With Metatron's obscure proclamations regarding the arrival of the Second Coming, it is highly probable that this turn of events will reunite Crowley with Aziraphale (or vice versa). Nonetheless, during the interim, the elusive Crowley could be lingering in any crevice of the world.

Aziraphale is approached by Metatron who recognizes his expertise and understanding of how Earth functions, seeking his assistance in initiating the next phase of the Grand Plan. In the Season 2 finale, Metatron refers to this phase as the Second Coming. The Second Coming traditionally refers to the reappearance of Jesus Christ, who serves as the judge of both the living and the dead, often associated with the end of times. Gabriel gives a glimpse of the impending announcement when he assumes a semi-angelic state, forewarning Aziraphale about the arrival of tempests, darkness, great storms, resurrected dead, and widespread mourning. Each passing day brings us closer to this event.

5 Will Nina And Maggie Return To Give Crowley More Advice?

It is logical that Gaiman and Pratchett opted for the concept of the Second Coming as the overarching plot for the originally intended sequel to Good Omens. This notion sets the stage for a thrilling foundation for Season 3. With any luck, it will bring back all the enjoyable chaos of another apocalypse for Aziraphale and Crowley, giving them an opportunity to reunite once again. The Second Coming could potentially serve as another Adam Young-like figure, uniting the dynamic pair.

In an effort to conceal the illicit utilization of supernatural abilities during the initial part of the second season, Aziraphale and Crowley make an endeavor to orchestrate a love connection between Nina, the proprietor of a coffee shop, and Maggie, the proprietor of a record store. Their joint efforts culminate in a sit-down conversation with Crowley during the final episode of the second season, where they encourage him to express his romantic emotions towards Aziraphale. This, however, results in a calamitous kiss. Considering their exceptional performances throughout this season, Nina and Maggie may make a return in the second season to aid in resolving the aftermath of Crowley's predicament on Earth. It is worth noting that both actors reappeared in the second season after portraying different characters in the first season; hence, it is plausible that they might return in the third season under new personas.

4 Will There Be Another Aziraphale And Crowley Kiss In Season 3?

3 Will Beelzebub And Gabriel Be Back To Push Aziraphale And Crowley Together?

The epic finale of Good Omens Season 2 marked a defining moment between Aziraphale and Crowley as they shared their first kiss. After confessing his deep-seated emotions, Crowley's heartfelt admission paved the way for a passionate, tear-filled embrace that had been a long time overdue. Yet, despite the overwhelming emotions, Aziraphale's response was bittersweet, concluding with a painful declaration of "I forgive you." With Season 3 poised to delve further into their intricately woven relationship, it seems highly probable that this tender display of affection could be the prelude to many more heartwarming moments between these ineffable souls.

After Gabriel (John Hamm) and Beelzebub (Shelley Conn) revealed their unexpected love, the couple vanished right in front of Heaven and Hell. In their final moments, just before their disappearance, Crowley proposes a journey to Alpha Centuri. Considering the extensive scope of Season 3, it's doubtful that they will reappear on-screen, but a brief appearance cannot be entirely ruled out. Aziraphale and Crowley are visibly influenced by witnessing Gabriel and Beelzebub's bond, as Crowley later expresses to Aziraphale, "If Gabriel and Beelzebub can escape together, then so can we." Beelzebub and Gabriel could very well become the catalyst that brings Aziraphale and Crowley back together in Season 3.

2 What Will Happen To Aziraphale's Bookshop?

With Aziraphale's ascension to Heaven and Crowley's disappearance, angel Muriel (Quelin Sepulveda) is entrusted with the responsibility of overseeing the bookshop. Despite being nervous, Muriel possesses a kind-hearted nature, making them potentially suitable for the role. However, there are doubts regarding their ability to ensure the shop's safety and prevent any unfortunate incidents. Thankfully, Muriel could receive assistance from their neighbors Maggie and Nina, who are likely to lend a helping hand. Whether Season 3 revisits Aziraphale's bookshop during the chaos of the Second Coming remains uncertain.

1 Will The Aziraphale And Crowley Flashbacks Return?

The Season 1 and 2 flashbacks in the show enrich the story by revealing significant moments between Aziraphale and Crowley. These flashbacks serve as a welcome break from the potentially dark and heavy storyline. Throughout these seasons, the angel and demon duo engage in various escapades, including assisting in a grave robbery, performing on stage, encountering zombie Nazis, and even saving the Bible's Job. Similar to Season 1, Season 2 begins with Aziraphale and Crowley in a biblical setting, this time during the creation of the universe. It is hoped that Season 3 will continue this pattern, giving us more insight into the dynamics between Crowley and Aziraphale when they were still angels.

Although Season 3 of Good Omens on Prime Video has not been officially confirmed, Neil Gaiman has stated that Season 4 will not be happening. As a result, if there is a Season 3, it will be the final one for Aziraphale and Crowley. With the promise of the Second Coming and a trial for their relationship, Season 3 of Good Omens will need to address several unanswered questions before concluding the show.
