American Gods ended too soon, there should be a law against 3, 6 & 8 episodes per season!

And I guess right on which god Mr. Wednesday is, was plenty of clues left both verbally and hidden
in background on some scenes.

His name literally tells you right from the start

I must have missed it, I even re-watched first 3 episodes.

It depends on if you know the old version of his name, and those who might have similar names.

Fair point. I suppose it's a little less obvious than "Thursday" for example.

But i mean...."Location Sweden". Disappointed Viking ancestors

???
It's more to do with the origin of the days name in the Germanic calendar days

  Spoiler:

Wednesday: Old English Wōdnesdæg (pronounced [ˈwoːdnezdæj]) meaning the day of the Germanic god Woden (known as Óðinn among the North Germanic peoples), and a prominent god of the Anglo-Saxons (and other Germanic peoples) in England until about the seventh century. It is also vaguely related to the Latin counterpartdies Mercurii, "Day of Mercury". The connection between Mercury and Odin is more strained than the other syncretic connections.[citation needed] The usual explanation[who?] is that both Wodan and Mercury were considered psychopomps, or guides of souls after death, in their respective mythologies; both are also associated with poetic and musical inspiration.[citation needed] The Icelandic Miðviku, German Mittwoch, Low German Middeweek and Finnish keskiviikko all mean mid-week.

  Spoiler:

He says that Swedes call it Onsdag, as Odins day.

Doesn't Mad Sweeney also call him Grimnir at some point?

Last episode of Handmaid's Tale. The punishment for the adulterer made me squeam.

Re; American Gods. The crows were a giveaway for me.

Made it 3/4's through the pilot of The Mist. Goddamn what a fucking shitshow. Genuinely the worst piece of garbage ive seen in years.

Watched the new Netflix show Glow - got lured by Alison Brie's tits in the first episode, but I guess they blew the whole tits budget on that one episode (well, maybe one more, but that's it).
If women's wrestling is your thing, you might watch it, otherwise finish on the first episode.

[evil edna]

thanks for the tits report

[Phrixus Zephyr]

Fucking love 80's high waisted garb.

Dark Matter is still (or, again) going. Didnt know this before, but apparently is made by a bunch of SG1 alumni. Last episode gave us this gem:
