American Gods: The Lake Effect (2021)
Season 3, Episode 9
9/10
A rush to the finish?
15 March 2024
Nine stars. There's a TON of book in this episode. That's what makes it so good. There's also a sense of desperation showing in a rush to the finish.

Shadow does his research, and figures out what no one wants to know. It takes him to the core of the Lakeside mystery. Although justifying Ganesh by turning it into a bad pun was a lousy bit of writing. I was hoping to actually see the Kobold, but I guess they didn't want to spend the money on the CG for it. We finally get the peace conference between Odin and World, and it turns out as it must. It was a good choice not to have if off-stage, as it was in the book. The inevitable resolution of Laura's revenge fixation wraps this one up. That leaves one episode to go, and a ton of story to tie up. This looks bad. One episode clearly isn't enough, but that's all we've got. 15 March 2024.
