Everyday, it’s a-gettin’ closer. As we get closer to the highly anticipated return of Good Omens, Prime Video teased us with the official trailer for Season 2. The wait to reunite with our fave angel/demon duo is as ineffable as it is intense, so this two-minute first look is a balm for the soul.
Here’s a synopsis for Season 2 per Amazon Studios:
“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.”

Admittedly, I was hesitant about diving into a second season of this series after the first installment covered the material in Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett‘s Good Omens novel. However, since the authors plotted details for a potential literary sequel to the beloved fantasy before Pratchett died in 2015, I’m assuming Gaiman and co. will implement those ideas for this next go-round. As long as Gaiman’s at the helm and he honors Pratchett’s contributions, I’m good.
Plus, who can say no to more of David Tennant and Michael Sheen’s adorable chemistry as Crowley and Aziraphale? They’re the divine (and hellish) Odd Couple in the Good Omens universe. Judging by this trailer, we’re in for a deeper dive into their friendship. One thing it highlights is Aziraphale’s need for Crowley. I love the addition of new characters like Muriel (Quelin Sepulveda), along with Miranda Richardson returning as someone entirely different: Shax.
