#AMERICAN GODS SEASON 1 FULL#
Shadow Moon (Ricky Whittle) and Media (Gillian Anderson) in American Gods 1.02 ‘The Secret of Spoon’ 1.03 ‘Head Full of Snow’ We also meet Czernobog, another Slavic deity, but incredibly grumpy and rude. Czernobog offers a bet to Shadow: if Shadow wins, he will join them, but if he loses, Czernobog gets to hit him with his hammer and kill him. In Chicago, we meet Zorya Vechernyaya-a guardian goddess from Slavic mythology watches the skies in rotation with her two sisters, Utrennyaya and Polunochnaya. Back in the present, Wednesday and Shadow eventually hit the road to get his hammer in Chicago, but first Shadow meets Lucille Ball from I Love Lucy, except it’s really Gillian Anderson playing the role of Media, another ‘new god’. He convinces the slaves to kill their captors and burn the ship, even though they’ll die too. The episode begins in 1697 with an incredibly intense monologue from Anansi, a deity from African folklore who often travels in the form of a spider. Shadow Moon (Ricky Whittle) and Mad Sweeney (Pablo Schreiber) in American Gods 1.01 ‘The Bone Orchard’ 1.02 ‘The Secret of Spoon’ We’re also introduced to a seductive woman by the name of Bilquis who takes a man completely inside of her (via lower extremities in case you were wondering) thanks to him worshipping her. However, a mysterious force cuts Shadow down and kills all of his attackers. The Boy orders Shadow to be ‘deleted’ and he’s attacked and strung up by his neck to a tree. After dropping a gold coin on Laura‘s grave that he got from Sweeney, Shadow then finds himself in a car with someone named Technical Boy who is asking questions about Mr Wednesday. While at the funeral, Shadow learns his best friend was involved in the car accident as they were involved in some extra activities whilst driving. Stopping at Jack’s Crocodile Bar, Shadow runs into Wednesday again and soon finds himself employed and also in a fight with a 7 foot leprechaun by the name of Mad Sweeney. With his sentence almost over, he’s released early as his wife has died in an accident and while on his way home, he meets a man by the name of Mr Wednesday who would like Shadow to work for him, except he declines. The first episode introduces us to Shadow Moon who is currently in prison. Now on to the season recap!

#AMERICAN GODS SEASON 1 SERIES#
In regards to the television series, you could attempt to compare elements from the series to other television shows, except there’s no point as it’s in a category entirely by itself. This is what makes American Gods so very intriguing and almost disorienting because you have nothing really to compare it to. Some may find the series confusing, and that is understandable as the book by Neil Gaiman is also like this since it’s filled with a significant amount of content across 600+ pages, and for me, it’s a book unlike anything I have ever read before.
