American Gods

Watched the first episode, will be watching more. If you liked Legion you will probably like this too. :wink:


This was pretty interesting, might be some semi spoilery visuals but it only goes into their mythologies and not their stories in the show. This made me want to read the book  :)

Two episodes down and I'm into it, read the book about four years back so it's a little fuzzy, but it has been, from what I remember, overwhelmingly true to the novel. Digging it, can't wait for Twin Peaks to start up soon too.

You think you're pretty smart with your dago mustache and your greasy hair.

Haven't read the books, just finished the 2nd episode. I still don't know if I'm enjoying the show, or if I am looking at some retarded shit.

I'm not eloquent enough to explain it. Buty I really recommend you to read American Gods and Anansi Boys. Very different, but both very enjoyable.
