I think he was perfect for that part. I've also liked show-dead-wife more than I remember liking her in the book. Though, when I read the book, I was a teenager in my first relationship and thought of cheating as some lovecraftian horror that only unredeemable non-humans could ever think of committing, so she never had a fair chance. As an adult, who has since experienced being cheated on and dealt with it, I can muster more sympathy for her.

I love the Lakeside plot but it really feels like an in-universe short story that Gaiman stuck in to pad out the main plot. When Wednesday chastised Shadow for not going in the beginning I legit thought they decided to excise it.

Is that the part where they just hang out in some old timey town and do some light grifting?

For how little screentime he got, I can't imagine Anansi any other way now. Took like 3 harry potter movies before they overwrote my internal imagined faces, but one scene with Anansi.
