Though the show features many concurrent storylines, Sweet Tooth's cast has always centered on Gus' quest. In the last episode of the show, he makes a firm choice to burn the antler tree so that nature could decide the course of the planet on its own. Hybrids keep being born while the virus is eradicated, indicating that mankind before the epidemic is likely to go extinct gently over time.
Having elder Gus exposed as the Narrator helps to explain why the program originally had a narrator and also emphasizes the relevance of the story being presented. Something that needed a time jump to completely take effect, the narrative of Sweet Tooth provides the starting point for hybrids finally rising to be the dominant species. The series made the storytelling mechanism all the more significant by starting the future from the narration, thereby highlighting that future. The reveals act as bookends for his path as well as for how his choice changed the planet.
Sweet Tooth is set in the not too distant future, post-apocalyptic United States following a catastrophic viral epidemic based on the DC Comics series of the same name. Some children started to be born with human and animal hybrid traits once the plague wiped off the world's population. Many individuals fearing the hybrids believe they are the source of the sickness. After his father dies, a young deer hybrid called Gus (Christian Convery) sets out to locate his mother with the aid of Tommy Jeppard, a loner and traveler.
As its third season arrives, the show has attracted a committed viewership. The show has sparked a lot of discussion, and given its popularity, the series is probably going to keep on.
Sweet Tooth's creator, Jim Mickle, has clarified the meticulous planning behind the narrator of the episode. All through the show, the narrator has been a pillar, narrating Gus's story almost to the spectators like a storybook. However, in the Season 3 finale the Narrator is revealed to be Gus, an elderly man sharing his story to a gathering of young hybrids. This puts the story in the environment of the series, therefore providing a specific justification inside the show for the narration.
Mickle shared with Screen Rant what it was like hiding the narrator's identity until Sweet Tooth's end and how the reveal went. The producer stated how the choice impacted what older Gus said or omitted in his narration during the series, therefore highlighting how the decision had been meticulously taken right from the beginning. Look at what Mickle says below:
Given the favorable reviews for Sweet Tooth Season 3, it would seem that the narrator of the show—older Gus—made the appropriate call in composing the last episode. Given that his narrative has now been recounted with how it affected the universe, it also seems to close the door on any conceivable continuance for the character. Mickle and team delivered the series a fitting climax that seemed deserved by the trip its characters traveled by including the narrator position as such a major component.

Indeed, the first fastball to reach the end there included all of everything. Once more, it's like when you're pitching something far out you're offering far-fetched thoughts. You are wondering, "So many things are going to happen, who knows if we're gonna get to this, but wouldn't it be cool if this is the end?" Then it's like, "Holy s--t, here we are. Suddenly. We are just here; here is [James] Brolin and Christian [Convery], meeting for the first time." Indeed, that was always part of the aspirational pipe dream; you know, "Wouldn't it be cool if we could actually stick this landing?" And that was always part of it, which is fascinating, reading back and writing his voiceover; we always had to be somewhat cautious with the things he would put in there. present was type of strictness we had to follow in the writers room since he mentioned characters and things he wasn't present for a lot of times. At the time, I thought, "Who cares? Nobody understands. Now that we actually pulled it off, though, I'm happy we stayed to it.
