i watched american gods (it’s hopefully no spoilers I tried but if scared no go probs)
do you think whoever made the opening credits got a real briefing or they just got a vintage vegas postcard handed to them by bryan fuller, who is making far too much eye contact, a short poem about how much he has feelings about this show scribbled on the back of it, and a couple of bottles of booze
oh puppy is a puppy ohhh. sweetheart I want to protect you, regardless of if it is needed. (it is)
speaking of casting I WAS WORRIED I WOULD NOT LIKE WHO THEY PICKED TO PLAY LOW KEY BUT I LIKE WHO THEY PICKED TO PLAY LOW KEY
your cgi tree is low budget and I want to file a written complaint on behalf of treebeard. he feels strongly about his people
Can we get a snapshot of the series of horrified tweets going out from all the randoms in that airport slowly realising that the guy two seats from them just said "-they tell me Laura's dead. Let me out early. I'm coming home" in a relatively level tone. Someone thinks it's a prank show, someone else is asking for #whoislaura to get trending, someone on the same flight is kind of emotionally messaging their mother because intellectually they know they probably don't need to be worried but just in case
real talk time i am kind of jealous of people who first read or watch this not as dumb mythology nerds, because i spoilered myself a bunch just out of trying to guess it and knowing just enough references to properly spoiler me. also someone give me a person who hasn't read this i need to know how you read certain lines if you don't know all the spoilers it is killing me here I am so curious

you know when that "I don't know how I feel about this and have been like that for a long time" moment comes and oops yes there it is I am going to drink more.
unrelated follow up question: do you even know how many times in my professional life I have wished to say "I will work for you until the second you piss me off" but apparently, according to some, I have expressed this via non-verbal signals. i am happy about that
does literally everyone want to fuck mad sweeney or
IM SORRY I JUST WANT TO KNOW

every time you're like oh I wonder how they will make wednesday as much a piece of shit as he should be? and so far, they have delivered
hi there robbie's wife, the plot thanks you for pulling absolutely no punches
"if you were going to leave I could have taken it" is a fucking gift to this show on a number of levels both with dealing with masculinity post prison whatever, but also just in general, if she leaves you? deal. it happens. the alpha male protag in this is saying he would have. I believe him? idk just important maybe be more of that explicitly
if anyone comes at audrey i might fight them
on the other hand if anyone comes after technical boy I will be there with a full scale support balloons and flag, probably making semi-subtle side references to the KKK
oh dude who said subtle
