Too many “what got cancelled too soon” questions, what’s a show that went on too long?

Hard mode: no The Walking Dead

    I think the first season was even better than the book. It was unlike anything I have seen before on TV. I’m fine it exists in the first place :D Never read Anansi Boys and Beowulf. Is it worth it?

      I loved Anansi Boys definitely recommend reading it. Anansi Boys is very different from American Gods but does exist in the same world. I’ve read everything by Neil Gaiman because I just love how that man writes. I think the Beowolf short story is either in a collection of his short stories, but I also think it’s added to new additions of American Gods or at least I think the special edition of America Gods has it, but I might be misremembering.

      Have you given The Sandman on Netflix a try? I really enjoyed the job they did on it, and having read the comics I kind of wouldn’t have minded if the added more of the short side stories because I feel they inform the larger main story.

        Sounds interesting, maybe I will check it out sometimes. Ananasi was one of my favourite characters.

        I loved the Sandman Series on Netflix, design and acting were great. I personally think the comic gets better with every book so I’m strongly awaiting the next ones :) I hope they can keep the quality.

        Altough I think they did a good job on the cat story.
