    American Gods

    Anything less than the second coming of Al Swearengen will be severely disappointing.

    I imagine this would be very weird for people who haven't read the book or have at least a broad grasp of the premise of the story. I think it looks promising. A really gory Stranger Things for twisted grown up minds?

    Well, that was .... interesting. Seems like it should have been better than it was, kind of a less-than-the-sum-of-its-parts thing.

    Yep. Moments of brilliance.

    Season 1 is available on Amazon Prime now, but season 2 isn't, and I don't have STARZ, so just started watching season 2 on DVD from library. Very interesting show, cool story and characters. Ian McShane, as always, is amazing. (Season 3 is in slow-release now on STARZ.)

    The first episode of the second season is set partly at the House on the Rock, which had me wondering at first if it was an elaborate set, but which is actually a real thing located in Wisconsin.

    Pretty wild place, to put it mildly. Anyone ever been there?
