Good Omens director on Amazon and Scotland

Good Omens creator Neil Gaiman and director Douglas Mackinnon had to "prove" to Amazon bosses that the big-money show could be made in Scotland.

Good Omens Season 2 could be better than the first

The best parts of Season 1 are when Aziraphale and Crowley interact, full stop. And there simply isn't enough of them!

Alicia Kania, The Mary Sue, 22nd July 2021

Good Omens going beyond the book? That's not a bad sign

While Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett never wrote a sequel, they did sketch out a plot that will now form a second season. If they wanted to continue the story, I want to watch it.

Good Omens Series 2 confirmed

It's been confirmed that Good Omens is due to return for a second series, with David Tennant and Michael Sheen reprising their roles as Crowley and Aziraphale. Six new episodes will be filmed in Scotland later this year.

Good Omens Series 2 rumoured

Good Omens, the comedy drama starring David Tennant and Michael Sheen, is reportedly set to return for a second series.

British Comedy Guide, 13th May 2021

It seems the apocalypse has been averted. But how? The final episode of this Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett collaboration answers that question in discursive and inventive style. After a standoff between angels and demons there are neat reappearances from Jon Hamm and Anna Maxwell Martin.

Phil Harrison, The Guardian, 19th February 2020

Armageddon at last approaches in Neil Gaiman's handsome, but somehow inert, fantasy comedy: tornadoes are blowing, God is speaking and Jack Whitehall's accidental witchfinder responds to the looming end of the world in the way all virgins should. Plus, the antichrist finally reveals himself.

Good Omens review

Despite some hammy special effects and occasional overwriting, Neil Gaiman's epic six-parter zings with wit, wisdom and heaven-sent casting.

Flora Carr, Radio Times, 5th February 2020

More backstory for Michael Sheen's prissy angel, Aziraphale, and David Tennant's louche demon, Crowley, as this adaptation of the Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett novel continues. From Noah's ark to the crucifixion, the pair have plenty of shared history. This series has proved as inventive as its provenance suggests.
