Is it based on the book still or no?

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

Season one is based on the book, season two is still co-written by Neil Gaiman and is apparently based on an idea that he and Terry Pratchett talked about for a sequel, and I have no idea about season three lol.

Season 3 will be something Neil thinks up while on the Can!

I’d rather read something he wrote while on the can than what most authors consider their very best work.

Season 3 is what you just described as season 2. Season 2 is a sort of in-between one Gaiman came up with.

Season one is based on the book. Season three is based on the sequel Pratchett and Gaiman had planned together, but never fully written or published. Season two is a bridge to fill some gaps written by Gaiman alone.
