“Good Omens” Season Two Set to Premiere July 28 on Prime Video

The second season of Good Omens will debut on July 28 on Prime Video. After the worldwide success and overwhelmingly positive reception of the first season, co-creator Neil Gaiman is giving fans what they want: a brand new story starring their favorite unholy duo.

On the 33rd anniversary of the publication of Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch, the novel that inspired the first season of the show, the premiere date of Season Two was announced. Gaiman collaborated with superfans Hilly & Hannah Hindi of The Hillywood Show to announce the date in a fan-funded video titled “Good Omens Parody.”

The six-episode season premieres on Prime Video on July 28 in over 240 countries and territories around the world.

What is season 2 about

The second season of Good Omens delves deeper into the mysterious friendship between the fussy angel Aziraphale (who also happens to be a rare book dealer) and the fast-living demon Crowley. Aziraphale and Crowley, who have been on Earth since the beginning and have successfully thwarted the apocalypse, are settling back into life as mortals in London’s Soho when a mysterious messenger appears.
