Correct me if I'm wrong, but the book was wrapped up in S01 wasn't it? I'm trying to remember if I saw S02 and if it was essentially new material?
Yes, only S1 was from the book. S2 and the finale/S3 is new material but Neil Gaiman said it was something he and Pratchett had planned/talked about. S3 was in development when Gaiman's allegations came out so instead of a full season to wrap it up they made it just 1 longer episode, which I think is unfortunate as I've loved the series.
It was.
Gaiman and Pratchett had started planning a sequel, but it never advanced past the early stages. Gaiman decided they couldn't jump straight into the sequel concept in season 2 so that season is new material that bridges the gap.
Is anyone even going to watch it? I guess fans of the actors maybe, but I doubt I'm alone in being a former fan of Gaiman's who's lost all interest in his work since his rapist behaviour came to light.
Just enjoy the Terry Pratchett half
He wrote the tv adaptation and the 2nd (and 3rd?) season/s are his work as pTerry is dead.
And even if a new writer was brought on to make 3, it's still an intellectual property that's irrevocably linked to Gaiman now.
