Dammit I am not getting STARZ
Bryan Fuller gives me hope it will be good and sadness that he's 3 to 1 on his shows getting cancelled before season 3.
Though I still wish they'd do a Sandman show instead of movie and an American Gods movie instead of show. Doing it this way just feels backwards since American Gods was one main plot while The Sandman is a lot of stories. If we're lucky, they could segue American Gods into an Anansi Boys project without the producers insisting the characters not be black or gods. That was fucking stupid.

Bryan Fuller now 4 to 0 on his shows getting cancelled. Hopefully Gaiman's success can counteract the trend.
I can't believe there isn't more posts on this.
Shadow and Laura
Mad Sweeney, Shadow, and Wednesday
I am just impressed with the casting so far. The people picked so far are damn near perfect for their roles. I am very excited.

Probably because it's on Stars, a lot of us won't be able to watch it for a while and thus aren't as crazy about it right now.
Also since Fuller's shows keep getting cancelled, cautious optimism seems the best route.

A lot of us are already paying for various TV services. I'm not the target audience for that; my service is Netflix, I don't even have basic cable for TV. But I know others get combo-packs and that makes sense. If you're just getting a few things, that means there are other things you're not getting, so it's a matter of priorities.
You can get Starz as an add-on to Amazon Prime now, I think...?
You can get a 7-day free trial under Prime, but after that it's a monthly subscription.
Right, but you don't need any cable subscription, so it is easy to spring for a month this way.
I guess I'll just reread the book.
Wow. I've read the book so often the spine wore out and split at roughly 3/5ths of the way through.
Out of curiosity, what part?
The end of Chapter 1, where some random guy gets eaten by a vagina.
That's probably the strangest scene (and supposedly in the series). Push through. I found it worth it.
Doesn't even need to push through; you can skip that entire scene and it has no bearing on the rest of the novel.
Comic Con San Diego interview with Brian Fuller, Neil Gaiman, and cast.
You're welcome. And the big surprise is who is playing Easter.

Damn, that's pretty good casting for Shadow and Odin (though I always imagined shadow's voice being deeper... blame audio books.) I'm in.

If you don't get the Starz channel on your cable/dish, maybe PM me your e-mail address, and I'll see about arranging for you to stand where things of this sort generally fall off trucks.
It's a series of tubes.
