The Sandman Season 1's Biggest Burning Questions and Ending Explained

Season 1 of Neil Gaiman’s long-awaited The Sandman adaptation has hit Netflix. Now that we’ve watched, here are all of our burning questions headed into Season 2 should the series get renewed.

When you’ve got several episodes that span hundreds of years on their own, it makes sense to come out of a series with a lot of questions. And that is certainly the case with Netflix’s The Sandman, so we're going to break down the who’s, the what’s, the where’s, the why’s, and just what was going on with Season 1’s ending.

A lot occurred between Rose Walker (Vanesu Samunyai) marching into the Dreaming to meet her fate and the final credits of The Sandman. Things kick off with one of the most jaw-dropping of those moments involving Gilbert (Stephen Fry) and the stunning Fiddler’s Green. Our exploration of the Sandman ending and our Sandman questions also involves Unity Kinkaid (Sandra James Young), Lucienne (Vivienne Acheampong), Desire (Mason Alexander Park), Lucifer (Gwendoline Christie), and Azazel, and so much more!

We also dive in on the question of if The Sandman will get a Season 2? Unlike Prime Video’s Good Omens — which covers the original source material in its entirety in its first season and was believed to be a limited series at first — The Sandman goes on for many, many more issues after “Preludes & Nocturnes" and "The Doll's House" in the comics (the two segments adapted by Season 1).
