Kind of good news, at the same time they completely changed the premise of the show and have basically been flogging a dead horse. Radcliffe in sequin assless chaps definitely made up for it though!

Is it based on the book still or no?

Theyve exhausted the source material now, but Gaiman is all for it continuing

Given how disappointing and out of nowhere the seasons 2 ending was, I'm not exactly thrilled by this piece of news, but we'll see.

Season 2 really felt like a stopgap measure to pad out the series, didn't it? I appreciated the character bits but I'm hoping the final season brings more substantial story to the table.

Hell yeah. As a show only viewer I really enjoyed it.

We're all show-only now. Only the first season was an adaptation of the book, season 3 will be an adaptation of the unwritten sequel to the first book Gaiman and Pratchett never had the chance to finish before Pratchett passed.

Season 2 was also entirely original straight from Gaiman. He said he felt there needed to be a bridge between the published book and the sequel they planned, so he wrote a story on his own to do that, and that's Season 2.
