This is such a strange, worlds-colliding conversation.
Hey, don't worry about it. Nest full of vampires, you come get me, okay. Box full of puppies, that's more of a judgement call.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I have been having a lot of fun with American Gods. The places where the show has done things differently than the novel have all been good changes, IMO.
WITH THAT SAID: next week's episode is the one they're going to have to work hard to win me over about casting. I adore Kristin Chenoweth, but she's not who I pictured a certain Personage looking like.

Weirdly, I actually pictured that character as Marilyn.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I don't remember that character well enough to know how I pictured her.

In the book, she's supposed to be voluptuous / chubby..

I have two new obsessions: I finally listened to Hamilton, and just keep playing and replaying it in my car. Newsflash, it's awfully good.
And the leftovers. I've now watched the last episode 4 times, and it knocks me out every time, Carrie Coon is that good. I kind of want to watch the entire series again. But that's not going to happen or at least not for a while. I suspect that the last three episodes of The Leftovers are the best movie made this year. That would be the Matt and Laurie taking the boat to Australia ep, the second International Assassin episode, and the final episode.
I found a thing about the Wu-Tang music in the trampoline episode. [link]

She's supposed to be a fertility goddess, of course she should be voluptuous.

Having now watched the episode, I think she did a good job. Also, Orlando Jones better get a LOT more to do next season, even if I cringe every time one of his avatars skitters across the screen.
And damn, they're really diverging from the book, aren't they? I like it, but things are very different.
I need to remember to go buy the soundtrack.

Is Laura getting faded colorwise as she continues her undeadness?
(I thought of you, Jilli,particularly at the beginning of this week's episode.)

Random: I am amused that people all over the world are seeing The House on the Rock signs.
Now we need to see Mars' Cheese Castle signs.
