American Gods

First!
What the heck was that?! Did you see that oh my gosh I can't believe they opened with that. Just wow just friggin wow!

I'm sitting here in the mall as I write this. Since Sunday's premier I have seen it three times.

Were there some weak points? Absolutely.
Were there differences from the book? Absolutely.
Does it take away from the show? Absolutely not.

We have a good introduction into each character. I enjoyed the hint into Shadow's lineage. I was able to watch with someone who did not know the story and they picked up on it.

My main critiques are a bit nitpicky.
Once I saw the actor who was originally scheduled to play our favorite leprechaun I couldn't see anyone else in the role.
I still think he would've been a great fit.
I know nothing of the present actor and I'm not convinced.

Shadow as well I feel like there are some odd choices.
His motives for just up and agreeing to working with Wednesday
