The meteor shower Anthony mentions and observes in the final scene is the Eta Aquariids, a meteor shower associated with Halley's Comet and visible in the Aquarius constellation. FYI, they were active from April 19 to May 28 with their peak around May 10 this year

The finale released on May 13, right during the peak

In every Lifetime ( I would find you ) ❤️

Welcome to A Warm Close: Through the Universes! 

A Good Omens fan event where the only fixing we’re doing is fixing Amazon’s budget and making all the different universes that our beloved Ineffables keep appearing in!

If you’re a Good Omens creator tickled by the tag “All Good Omens Fanfiction is Canon” and excited about the snow globe sitting in Asa and Anthony’s garden, especially when paired with the book quote: “The universe is just something small and round, like those water-filled balls which produce a miniature snowstorm when you shake them.” This event is for you!

Check out the guidelines below the cut!

I liked Good Omens 3.

you are allowed to feel any way you like about it.

This is simply an opportunity to extend condolences and kindness during a difficult time.

Whatever opinions or disagreements people may hold, harassment is unacceptable. We do not condone that behaviour, and it should never define this fandom.

Compassion costs nothing and it is reflective of the community many of us want to be in. If you'd like to sign, please do so by Sunday 24th May - otherwise, please scroll on by.

That was a quick dip into horror movie territory for me. The tinny echo of every sound because there's nothing outside. No sunlight, no life. Every bit of human history that had been written down: gone. What is the point of knowing this book was a Victor Hugo if you can't remember the story. I saw that scene and I was staring down the barrel of a bleak future full of boredom, squabbles and emptiness. Even if they'd sat down and written the world...That sounds cruel to everyone involved. How can there be free will if two celestial beings still exist in the mix? They're not omnipotent, either.

I think it's important to consider that a good character based narrative is about the characters feelings, rather than the reader or the audiences.

Crowley and Aziraphale, while we as the audience have known them almost exclusively as a demon and an angel, have never been particularly good at their roles, nor was it their core identify. Their identities were based on how they rejected their roles, and embraced something else.

And what did they embrace? Earth and humanity. The things they found and chose to define them are the Bentley, the bookshop, food and drink, music, film, television, theatre, all very human creations. And the list goes on.

They always wanted to be human, and be together.

And that's the ending they got to have.

That's the only one there could have been, to close the circle of who they are as characters.

Neither Heaven incarnate, nor Hell incarnate.

The more I think about the finale, the more convinced I am that the biggest reveal was not Aziraphale and Crowley choosing a new universe.

It was their decision to choose our universe.

Because Good Omens was never really set in our world. Soho always felt slightly unreal. Berwick Street became “Whickber Street.” History behaved strangely. Even London itself seemed softened around the edges, suspended, out of time somehow, curated rather than lived in.

And the finale finally explains why.

Their Earth really was only six thousand years old.

Young, in cosmic terms. Constructed. A reality actively governed by Heaven and Hell, shaped by rigid systems, binaries and assigned roles. Angel or demon. Good or evil. Obedience or rebellion. A controlled world.

And that is what Aziraphale and Crowley ultimately let go. This is not our universe already collapsing around them. It's theirs. They let it go for a reality not ruled from above.

That’s why the final human scenes matter so much. For the first time, the world suddenly feels real. Older. Authentic. Even the bookshop no longer looks like a mythical little pocket outside reality, but like an actual shop on an actual street in an actual city.

It is finally our world. Messy. Human. Uncertain. Free.

And because this new universe is no longer locked into Heaven and Hell’s rules, it opens the door to larger and stranger ideas: reincarnation, soulmates, souls finding each other across time and circumstance.

Honestly, I am convinced that if we had gotten a full third season instead of a single film, we would have seen exactly that.

Not just Crowley and Aziraphale as two nice middle-aged men, but fragments of them everywhere. Two women in one century. Two men in another. Lovers, strangers, rivals, spouses - every possible gender and version of humanity unfolding across history.

Different faces. Different lives. Same souls. The same impossible gravity pulling them together again and again.

Human now, yes. Fragile. Bound by time like the rest of us.

But still ineffable.
