This is a great show. Ian McShane RULES!

1. I hope they don't hold us in suspense until Season 2...

to let us know what the hell is going on!

Of course, if "The Leftovers" is any example, we may never know what is going on!

"American Gods" does have some astounding imagery, though!

2. My wife and I loved the book, but her first comment on watching the show:

"This is great, but I don't see how anyone who hasn't read it will have any idea what the hell is going on."

4. She's right.

I'm really enjoying this show, but I don't know what the hell is going on. I have theories. But that's about it.

5. I think it should all come clear(er) in another episode or two.

It's been pretty faithful to the book, but I don't think everything started falling into place until about a 3rd of the way through.

8. I had to read the book twice to get it

I think the show portrays the characters better than the book.

3. Ian McShane

Ian McShane certainly does rule. He was excellent in Deadwood, too.

6. Orlando Jones and Peter Stormare as well

Forget the ceremony, give Orlando Jones the Emmy for that monologue in the last episode. Holy shit.

7. Yeah, that was awesome! nt

9. Its a good show but is moving at a snail's pace.

Only two episodes left in this season and they arent even a quarter of the way thru the book. At this rate, it'll take 8 years to tell the story
