'American Gods' Season 2 Finale "Moon Shadow": The Power of Fear, A Glimmer of Hope [SPOILER REVIEW]
Welcome back to Bleeding Cool's weekly review of STARZ's American Gods season 2 – and now we've reached the end… and the beginning… more like the end of the beginning… with season finale "Moon Shadow."
When the end credits rolled on last week's episode, things were looking dire for the old gods Mad Sweeney's (Pablo Schreiber)[...]
But with Mad Sweeney being the Irish warrior god-king that he is/was/may never have been, he wasn't going out quietly: speaking truths about Wednesday (Ian McShane) to a now tormented Shadow (Ricky Whittle) and taking Wednesday's prized spear off the playing field Meanwhile, Laura (Emily Browning) and Mama-Ji (Sakina Jaffrey) have a heart-to-heart over Laura's[...]
But with Mad Sweeney being Ireland's forgotten warrior god-king Lugh, he wasn't going out quietly: speaking truths about Wednesday (Ian McShane) to a now tormented Shadow (Ricky Whittle) and taking Wednesday's prized spear out of play Meanwhile, Laura (Emily Browning) and Mama-Ji (Sakina Jaffrey) have a heart-to-heart over Laura's potential future as a destroyer –[...]
For the old gods, Wednesday (Ian McShane) and Shadow (Ricky Whittle) walked away with a newly-rune-recharged Gungnir (thanks to the stylings of Lou Reed); while World (Crispin Glover) saw New Media (Kahyun Kim) bring some righteous social media fire power down on the side of the new gods Weaving through it all? A tale of Wednesday,[...]

A tale of[...]
Because from what we can see in the preview below, Mad Sweeney (Pablo Schreiber) has had enough of his "servitude" towards Wednesday (Ian McShane) – and has some truths to share with a "newly weaponized" Shadow Meanwhile, Laura's (Emily Browning) learning from Mama-Ji (Sakina Jaffrey) she might be a bigger player in this game than[...]
Last week's episode of STARZ's American Gods season 2 left Wednesday (Ian McShane) and Shadow (Ricky Whittle) with a newly-rune-recharged Gungnir (thanks to the stylings of Lou Reed), while World (Crispin Glover) looked to New Media (Kahyun Kim) to bring some righteous social media fire power down on his side But as important as those[...]
Wednesday (Ian McShane) and Shadow (Ricky Whittle) to get the runes on Wednesday's mighty Gungnir a recharge from Dvalin (Jeremy Raymond), the duo have to get their hands on an authentic, Lou Reed-owned leather jacket These were the moments that represented the first season well: watching Wednesday and Shadow as a two-man scam squad pulling[...]

Wednesday (Ian McShane) on STARZ's series adaptation of Neil Gaiman's American Gods, Shadow Moon's Ricky Whittle appears to be sporting some serious geek cred Where's our proof? This weekend's edition of Marvel's Earth's Mightest Show, where Whittle sat down with host Langston Belton to discuss the show's second season and how he keeps in shape.

Wednesday (Ian McShane) and Shadow (Ricky Whittle) look to break bread with dwarf Dvalin to repair Wednesday's mighty Gungnir But in the following sneak preview clip (followed by an official episode summary and trailer), that repair work is going to require some serious rune-ification:

Along the way, we saw some interesting pairings and unique character dynamics, some (slightly heavy-handed) backstory for Shadow (Ricky Whittle), a fine example of "fight foreplay," and an ending that pretty much winked at us as it embraced its deconstructed homage to the "damsel in distress ties to the railroad tracks" cliche.
