American Gods (2017)

Excellent opening episode for season 3 and absolutely fitting and more than a little spooky how it’s exactly 20 years since the book came out, at a time when Big Tech was just learning to crawl and yet it seems almost like a blueprint for 2021:
“Distract, misdirect, make them give a fuck about what we say is important.
Your job is to provide and control the narrative.”
I don’t know if Neil has taken on a more hands on approach for this season as executive producer, but something has changed as it has that feel of the first season and while season 2 was nowhere near as bad as many suggest, I’m very optimistic about what’s to come.
The book is obviously not the series and obviously you don’t need to read it to grasp what’s going on but for fans of the series who want to augment their viewing experience, it is well worth your time.
