Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The famous 'Coming to America' cold opens were invented for the show — Gaiman's book has nothing like them. Fuller basically said 'what if we made the most expensive prestige TV possible about immigrants and gods?' and Starz said 'sure' for exactly one season.
The Technical Boy's constant reboots are a sly commentary on how internet culture devours and regenerates itself faster than old gods ever could — by Season 3 he's literally a different actor, which the show treats as canon.
