Re: American Gods - TV Series

Gaiman isn't doing a direct 1-to-1 adaption, because he figures that'd be a little boring. I think it's the mythology of the world that provides the biggest draw. Anyways, here's an article on the question, digs:

Ah, right. Sounds like a good way to do it! Hopefully it goes for more than one season and we can see what comes next...

Re: American Gods - TV Series

Well if its HBO doing it, that's a good sign. Honestly though, my first reaction on hearing it was, "oh god, they're going to screw that up? That's one of my favorites..."

We'll see what happens, but I don't have a lot of faith in television adaptations. Game of thrones is really good though.
