American Gods
Meh2/4 · Mediocre. Watchable if it is already on, but I would not go looking for it.
The first season is like a very long roadmovie with very little plot and many tangential short stories. There's filler and increasingly strong whiffs of propaganda since the first season, but at least there's some story. The second season removes the little plot there was in the first to replace it with Lynchean unexplained nonsense and plain, unadulterated propaganda. There are scenes that completely break the plot, like when incarnate gods are at a diner surrounded by gunmen and dying to gunfire but their enemies just decide to stop shooting because otherwise the show would end right then and there.
