For anyone who may have missed the news, it was confirmed going into this past weekend that Starz has officially ordered a season three for American Gods. The confirmation didn’t take long, as it came before the second episode of season two aired this past Sunday.

In addition to the new season order it’s also been announced that the third season of the show, which stars Ricky Whittle, Ian McShane, and Emily Browning and is an adaptation of Neil Gaiman‘s novel of the same name, will have a new showrunner.

The delightful chaos wrought by Amazon Studios’ new Good Omens TV series at SXSW cannot be denied or ignored, literally. With such an enormously immersive marketing strategy, you’d expect it was being positioned as the next Game of Thrones or Westworld, both of which saw HBO employ similar tactics in years past. But, you’d be utterly and completely wrong.

Good Omens is something entirely different — and, if successful, could have the potential to usher in a new era of TV.

Bringing together creator/showrunner Neil Gaiman, seasoned British television director Douglas Mackinnon (Sherlock, Jekyll), and fan favorite actor David Tennant for Amazon Studio’s forthcoming TV series Good Omens not only means the show will impress, but also that it’ll be chock-full of references to Doctor Who.
