Have you ever watched American Gods? What did you think?

I loved the first season. Ian McShane and Crispen Glover

I think I only saw bits and pieces of it. However I do love the book the series is based on. Actually believe I have a signed copy too.

I loved all 3 seasons of it. Technical Boy and Media were my favorite characters. I was disappointed when it got canceled because it had one final season left.

That’s stupid then. They could of gone on for the last one or at least share what was going to happen.

Exactly! That's how I feel. The show got cancelled over a feud off all things. A FEUD! I looked up that they were almost done with it and then I looked up possible spoilers based on the books on what would happen.

It’s a real shame. We never got the channel it was on I believe so I only saw bits of an episode. Not enough to say how it was or anything, but I’m sure it could have been awesome. My sister who introduced me I think to the book liked it.

Well maybe there do something someday to wrap it up. I hate when shows do that stuff near the end.

I've never read the books. I have however read spoilers about the books online just to get the gist and how different fans say that there is a huge gap between the show and the books.

Well there’s just one novel that the series is based on, by the same name. And there’s “Anansi Boys” which does have Mr. Nancy appear in it but isn’t a sequel, but is a good read. There’s also graphic novels that came out a few years ago I think.

That's good. I'm glad it's just one novel and not many. When watching the show and reading stuff on reddit, I had come under the belief that it was based on several books. I didn't think I had the patience to read multiple novels. I had thought the same about Planet of the Apes until my father gave me a novel and said "That's it. It's all based on that one book." I was surprised.

Yeah sometimes longer series are…intimating. I sometimes like these stand alone ones. Honestly all of Neil Gaiman stuff is pretty good (ones I read anyway). I own a couple copies I think. One is just normal and at least one is signed. Don’t have the comics though did get the first two volumes for my sister for a gift.
