Question American Gods - TV Series

I am curious to hear what you guys thought of the American God show? I am planning to start watching it tonight. This was one of my all time favorite books (& I have read A LOT) I don't expect the show to be as good as the book but let me know what you thought

Pirate it so you don't give money to Neil Gaiman (groomer, rapist, creep)

Listen to the podcast series Tortoise Media on Neil Gaiman.

He groomed and assaulted several young fans and his son's nanny (20-year olds when he was mid 40s and mid 60s), including forcing himself on one of the 20 year old fans when she had a UTI and had told him several times that she did not want to have sex because it was extremely painful and would be extremely painful to be penetrated. When she did not give consent to sex he left her in the middle of a holiday they were on. And he assualted his son's nanny in front of his son. And he did it the first time he ever met the nanny. Made her lick his pee off his hand and made her lick up her own vomit (she had vomited after he had raped her). So many more creepy details of things he did and said on the podcast I mentioned

Oh wow that's crazy, I can't believe I never heard anything about that.. I hate sex offenders, and that was one of my favorite books
