TV Review: American Gods (Season 2)

[froodle]

The award winning series “American Gods” bears a unique distinction of perhaps being one of the most inventive, confusing, and bizarre series to ever hit TV. This Starz originated program arrives sometime after the debut season 1 which introduced us to the world of American Gods, a series consisting of 8 episodes based on Neil Gaiman’s novel of same name. Neil’s writings have been the core inspiration for several shows and movies over the years due to their originality and depth, most recently the amazon prime series “Good Omens”, as a point of comparison.

However with uniqueness, often comes a deeper more integrated storyline and showcase of dialog that lives somewhere way above our typical expectations of shows. American Gods is a perfect example of this statement which might live in the same universe of uniqueness as series such as: “Preacher”, “Twin Peaks” and “Eerie, Indiana”.
