"It's a blessing that Good Omens Season 3 is happening at all. Mired in real-life controversy, creator Neil Gaiman stepped away from the project, and many fans were worried that the show would end after the heartbreaking confession and betrayal of the Season 2 finale. Thankfully, Aziraphale (Michael Sheen) and Crowley (David Tennant) live on, albeit in a shorter, feature-length special that tries its best to tell the story of the Second Coming but really just wraps up the story of these Ineffable Husbands. But let's be honest - that's all we really wanted anyway."
"Good Omens 3, as the final episode is still called, picks up a bit after Season 2, when Aziraphale left Crowley for a cushy job in heaven, leaving Crowley heartbroken back on Earth. Now, he's sleeping in alleyways, while Aziraphale is "upstairs," running Operation Second Coming like the Navy. Unfortunately, he's a bit over ambitious, and things run amok when one by one, crucial elements of the plan start disappearing: the Megatron (Derek Jacobi), the Book of Life, and finally, Jesus himself (a perfectly-cast Bilal Hasna)."
"Jesus ventures down to Earth, looking for that red-haired, strange-eyed angel who showed him all the cities: Crowley. He finds him, heavily inebriated, and he sets on a strange quest that brings him among the people of Earth. This time, instead of feeding the masses with loaves and fishes, he feeds them with day-old pizza. Unfortunately, that's the only really terrestrial storyline in the episode. The rest is all a political thriller between Heaven and Hell (mostly Heaven), and it can so"
A feature-length Good Omens special continues after the Season 2 finale, with Aziraphale leaving Crowley for a job in heaven and Crowley left heartbroken on Earth. Crowley sleeps in alleyways while Aziraphale runs Operation Second Coming, but the plan goes wrong as key elements disappear, including the Megatron, the Book of Life, and Jesus himself. Jesus comes to Earth to find Crowley, who is heavily inebriated, and Jesus begins a quest that brings him among people on Earth. Instead of performing miracles like loaves and fishes, Jesus feeds people day-old pizza. Most of the remaining story unfolds as a political thriller between Heaven and Hell, mostly within Heaven.
