The pilot was premiered this week, here is a review:
American Gods may have finally nailed the modern-fantasy formula on TV
Starz showrunners were on hand after the pilot episode's SXSW screening to confirm that, yes, "the book tends to get into a sausage party with Wednesday and Shadow." They're pledging to put more focus on female characters in the book, including Bilquis and Laura Moon. Yetide Badaki's brief turn as Bilquis in the pilot seems very promising for the kind of darkness she'll bring to the series, but I really want to see Laura get a better shot at coming off as a well-rounded character than this first episode permits (which the book affords her character, to some extent).
Laura???? LAURA??!?!? Unless it's her cocksucking greatest hits I don't think more of a close up on her is necessary.
Have you read the book?I'd be OK with this. I don't see the problem in making sure there's plenty of hot chicks sprinkled in with what I assume are hot guys.
noHave you read the book?
When you watch the show you will realize why that specific character will not be shown that often ....no
Did you read the quote from the showrunner? He seems to think the book is a sausagefest. That's what my statement was based on.
Remind me once it finally airs so I can come back and laugh about whatever makes "Laura's cocksucking greatest hits" so ridiculous.
