& now they fired Mr. Nancy for being too black in his speeches. New showrunner Charles Eglee from Fremantle who fired Mel B., Gabrielle Union, Nick Cannon, Heidi Klum (who used to be married to Seal), etc. did not like the message from Mr. Nancy to Black America. The excuse is he is not in that section of the book. Uh, I read the book and Mr. Nancy is paramount to the war. He also had his own franchise called Anansi Boys. This move is an insult to all Neil Gaiman fans, the author and storyteller Neil Gaiman, and the fans of the series. He is a MAJOR FUCKING character. Now, imagine if they fired Odin actor from the book or changed his image to a chinese old woman......they would fire Eglee and his name would be mud. But it is ok to sully and distort anything representing black culture especially in America. This is the typical racist agenda seen on tv and now it is infected my beloved and cherished stories by Neil Gaiman. I will not be watching this series from now on.
Finally!! Someone who has actually read Gaiman to bring up this point!! Let's continue the ridiculous ,baseless excuse though and ask why isn't Mr Wednesday a blonde Norseman or Tech boy an overweight ,acne -faced character ? How about Orlando writing,producing an Anansi Boys adaptation ? He wrote,developed much of his character's adaptation in American Gods.
I will no longer support a show that fires the author of this script for telling the Truth about the plight of African Americans in this country... So we are shown the truth what are people afraid of that we might rise up and change the conditions?
You would think that if they fired him because they didn’t like that he was speaking the truth, as so many are saying THEN THEY WOULD OF INSTEAD FIRED THE WRITER..... PEOPLE DO REALIZE THAT HE IS A ACTOR RIGHT? a extremely TALENTED, INCREDIBLE ACTOR I MIGHT ADD, AND I ALSO PERSONALLY LOVE HIS CHARACTER THE MOST ON THIS SHOW....BUT HE IS JUST REPEATING THE WORDS IN THE SCRIPT,,,,HE DIDN’T WRITE THEM....SO IM AFRAID THIS ARGUMENT MADE BY SO MANY...IS COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY MOOT, as is your claim that they FIRED THE AUTHOR OF THE SCRIPT....because he is NOT THE AUTHOR....HE IS ONLY REPEATING THE LINES THAT HAVE BEEN WRITTEN FOR HIM. Now if you were to argue that they fired Orlando because they didn’t like the character he portrayed...for the reasons you have stated...THEN YOUR SENTIMENTS MAKE MORE SENSE....IM JUST LETTING YOU AND OTHERS THAT YOU WILL BE MUCH MORE CONVINCING IF YOU MAKE YOUR REASONING ACCURATE....especially since I see that you have copied your point and put it on multiple videos....which is also perfectly fine..as you want to get your point across to as many people as possible....please take this as constructive criticism..at least In your case....
Fayomi Falade Aworeni really? Hats off to him! I’m so confused as to why they would fire one of the audience’s favorite characters. They expanded Mad Sweeney’s role to appease the audience- why would they take Orlando Jones away from us!?!!? Has Gaiman spoken about this at all? He may have a penchant for Norse Mythology as a whole, but Anansi seems to be his favorite God.
You left out Bast. But she isn't greatly featured in the show, so I guess she is easily overlooked. In the show and book Bast mostly appearance as a cat, and only really takes on human form to have her way with Shadow and heal him in the process. In the book she says she sees through the eyes of all felines. I would like to hear about Bast's real world mythology if you felt inclined cover her too.
Thanks for the comment, Damien. You are right, I did overlook Bast. Hopefully, if more African gods appear in the series, there can be a part two of this episode and I will make sure to include Bast.
@Erik Killmonger and that is the only reason i will continue to watch it, but if it focuses to much on European mythology i will have to stop watching it.
I just found out about this series! I love Orlando ! I was looking forward to seeing him . He's such a wonderful actor. I'm not sure if I will watch now that he's been fired. He's very talented so he won't have a problem getting work. God bless you Orlando.
Every time we wake up to something, they shut us down then complain we don't learn or do anything. I KNOW the God THEY serve. And it's not the Great I AM.
@@PrimordialChaos07 You come from NOTHING, STEALING from everyone else, trolling us because of your crippling INSECURITY. It's actually quite Pathetic.
Props to Neil Gaiman for writing this great graphic novel series and for actually showing knowledge of the subjects within. Also props on the casting directors who actually cast melinated actors in the correct roles.
We have been making some improvements on the sound but we still have a lot more to do. We want production quality that matches the quality of our content, so thank you for the constructive feedback!
African American are not African just American with darker skin. That’s the problem. Did you know wat your soldier did to people on Africa? Or the big oil companies owned by Americans?
Gianluigi Torresi...Dude, we don’t NEED your perspective about African Americans. You sold us out, we in America fought for our dignity and rights THEN sent Jet and Ebony magazines over to your continent to show you how to do your hair let along other things. And that was in the 60s. So, you learn, and now you want to act like our oppressors and change the narrative to that of you being the teacher. Screw you! You still don’t have sidewalks and inside toilets in many places of Africa. Take a seat in the back and shut up...
If i offended Someone sorry i use to work with real african and maybe younshould too maybe some take some lessons. Until people don’t undetstand there is no “us” and “them” world no moving up. I don’t consider myself better or worst because of ma skin, my religion. I read, speak to people listen their perspective. Respecting. Learning.
They are called mythological because we can (in modern times) NEVER uncover fact from fiction rather they were real (actual beings) or part of various pseudosciences/philosophies. Information has been distorted due to many different factors ranging from language to rulership influence to cultural diversity to wars. Therefore RELIGIOUS practices are made to construct the aspects of these individual deities bases upon 2 identification markers called belief and cultural origins. Thats my take on it but great video ahki.
Great series, really love the theatrical scenery , would love for Orlando Jones to be restored to the show, and bast be given an episode to uncover her own story. And dead wife stay dead, also please bring back mad swinny love his character so much
I loved the novel so much and really enjoyed the Anansi Boys. I honestly can’t watch the new season now that removed Mr.Nancy because they believe his speeches are too black and they make an excuse that he isn’t in this section of the book however he is paramount in the war. He is one of the most important characters. That’s one of the reasons I love the novel. The diversity of characters the importance of different cultures and how the book doesn’t only focus on the most commonly used mythologies like Greek or Roman or Norse or even Egyptian. It focuses on multiple others including Native American and African Mythology. That’s why I just can’t watch season three. The people in charge have fired one of the most important and interesting characters in the entire story.....they also removed a bunch of other characters or the actors just left. Which makes the story change and I just can’t deal with it.
This video was enlightening.. Inshallah,Peace and Power.. I use to watch American gods until the writer and Orlando Jones we’re fired.. due to the content on Black History.. And our condition here in America..
@@Tekka579 that what they want you to think. They use sheba as front in the series. But she.os actually Ishtar. Ishtar is the goddess of sex, war, and matron of prostitutes. She is also the queen of heaven. That is why when she have sex in the episode she engulf her partners and you see them in space and time among the stars. Also when she went to the museum to look at her gold chained outfit she was surrounded by Mesopotamian/sumeroan artifacts and her display of the garment as the center. She wears red because she represent the whore of Babylon/ prostitute.
@@theseventhhathor859 I believe ishtar was actually the goddess easter also in the show, in one of the episodes mr wednesday explains that if he is to win the war on the new gods he will need the goddess easter (ishtar) the goddess ishtar represents vertility and life, thats why when mr. wednesday arrives to ask for her help you can hear the birds tjirping and bunnys (also fertility) running around like in spring. The reason mr.wednesday needs easter is because she is not only a goddess of fertility but also of war and destruction, watch what she does to mr worlds men and the land when she strikes. But thats just my opinion, great show either way
@@rebelking6389 the goddess you're talking about is Ostaria- goddess of the spring. Ishtar is a different goddess. Im talking about Sheba that is actually inanna/Ishtar.
I agree. You don't have to be religious to know the facts or to understand other peoples culture. These were actual people who were turned into gods by their people.
Are you people crazy... Tuesday is named after a Norse Warlord Wednesday is named after Wodinsday Odin the Lord of Asgardian Ruler Thursday is named after Thor Friday is named after frigga which is Thor's mother. We are living in their hours they've literally hijacked this realm. This industrial complex country and various parts of the world mimics their star system idrisell. Bible Book Of Daniel 7:25👉 He shall speak words against the Most High, and shall wear out the saints of the Most High, and shall think to change the times and the law; and they shall be given into his hand for a time, times, and half a time.
Is Anpu another name for Anubis? Cause that is the only Egyptian god that fits what you described that I know of. Also, I did not know he was a god orphans. Thanks
That is a beautiful story and I loved it just one little thing as there are no Jaguars in Africa the story must be told with the leopard . I try not to make it too long but Jaguars only exist in the Americas mostly South America and a little bit of Central America
Jaguars aren't from Africa. They're a South American thing only these days thanks to humans. (There's fossils of them in North America, but that's it at this point.) I'm sure someone said this before I did. That said, Leopards are from Africa and a bit in Asia. And I'm pretty sure you're telling a different story than they even tell in American Gods about Anansi. Which shows there's several stories about him. He's very old as a trickster, so this doesn't surprise me.
I don't know this TV show, now I'll have to find it. Interesting. I know you are learning how to have a channel. It's a quest I too aspire to, when I retire. I think you need to make the history more relavent to a modern audience, you need video. You live where there is boatload of history. We can talk off line as this comment will get too long, lol
OK, started the first episode, not sure it's my thing... but I see where you are going. Keep at it, you will get it and please don't mind any critic. Keep it real, put your opinion in it too.
ananse reminds me of a certain hindu entity. she is the goddess of death. also bilquis isn't a goddess... she's like the virgin mary. she is honored but not worshipped.
Technically the Virgin mary could be considered a present day goddess since people pray ro her and honor her as a divine being...similar to Jesus christ. Some gods started off as humans and then later got elevated into being gods. We see this with Jesus, mad Sweeney, bilquis, Shango, Osun, Hercules and so on..
@@xaldinfash4203 she is not seen as a divine being or on the same level as jesus christ. jesus christ is seen as a god from birth.(he is seen as god's son, a demi god) osun, hercules and shango are as well (all seen as children of a god or goddess) they were in human form at some points but never lost their godhood. they were always seen as gods or demi gods. i think you are confusing them with saints or with humans that were legendary like samson, jason, oedipus, etc. mary was and is seen as human. she is seen as a person highly favored by god and respected above the saints but not above jesus or god. so she is not worshipped but highly respected. she does not and has never had a godhood. so she can't be seen on the same level of a god figure but she can be seen as a honorable figure in mythology.
Anup or Anpu is what the Egyptians would have called him. Anubis is the Greek version. We went with the Egyptian version because it made more sense to us to go with the original name, even though Anubis is a more popular name.
season 2 was my favorite, I MISS MR. Nancy (Orlando Bloom) , miss Mad Sweeney and Jinn. Honestly I g=hate for this show to end but Mr Eglee has destroyed it season 3 its my least favorite plus I hate how Orlando was treated
We followed apostates amongst us and began worshiping these demons and abandoned our Supreme power YAH, NYAME OLORUNE CHINEKE NWALI for these lesser beings and he sold us into slavery as a punishment
After getting rid of Ananse I will not watch anymore. Ananse is one of our chief Godz in Obeah, how in the hell you get rid of a major character. I guess the character was too powerful and Goddess forbid give ideas to the debt wage slaves to revolt against their oppressors.
Jaguars in West Africa?! Maybe a Leopard...but a Jaguar! Sure fam wrong continent...you literally have to cross an Ocean from West Africa to find a Jaguar. Still great video and thanks for sharing.
If you consider the concept of Pangea or all the continents being connected in Ancient times, west Africa and east South America (Brazil) border each other. Not so far fetched?
Well sad for them cause they blew it! Done with the serious but it’s our history and we have many AfricanAmericans that can finance and produce movies series and stories so we can see them and as we have seen with the BLM protest many are not as racists as we think they are
Anubis and Anpu are different names for the same god. We chose Anpu because it is the older name and the name that the Egyptians would have most likely used. Anubis is the Greek (Hellenized) version of the name. As we did research for this episode, we found that this is common with many Egyptian names. For instance Ausar, Djehuti, and Hetheru have been changed to Osiris, Thoth, and Hathor respectively. Both sets of names work and many historians use either set
& now they fired Mr. Nancy for being too black in his speeches. New showrunner Charles Eglee from Fremantle who fired Mel B., Gabrielle Union, Nick Cannon, Heidi Klum (who used to be married to Seal), etc. did not like the message from Mr. Nancy to Black America.

I heard it was the guy who played Shadow Moon said he was playing the race card. After he defended the guy on and off the set.
I was just about to watch this show because i wanted to follow mr. Nancy's story specifically but since he's gone...no american Gods for me.
I thought anapu was anubus?
Anup or Anpu is what the Egyptians would have called him. Anubis is the Greek version. We went with the Egyptian version because it made more sense to us to go with the original name, even though Anubis is a more popular name.
season 2 was my favorite, I MISS MR. Nancy (Orlando Bloom) , miss Mad Sweeney and Jinn. Honestly I g=hate for this show to end but Mr Eglee has destroyed it season 3 its my least favorite plus I hate how Orlando was treated
We followed apostates amongst us and began worshiping these demons and abandoned our Supreme power YAH, NYAME OLORUNE CHINEKE NWALI for these lesser beings and he sold us into slavery as a punishment
After getting rid of Ananse I will not watch anymore. Ananse is one of our chief Godz in Obeah, how in the hell you get rid of a major character. I guess the character was too powerful and Goddess forbid give ideas to the debt wage slaves to revolt against their oppressors.
Jaguars in West Africa?! Maybe a Leopard...but a Jaguar! Sure fam wrong continent...you literally have to cross an Ocean from West Africa to find a Jaguar. Still great video and thanks for sharing.
If you consider the concept of Pangea or all the continents being connected in Ancient times, west Africa and east South America (Brazil) border each other. Not so far fetched?
@@kcataclysm6926 Yeah...true but man didn't exist when Pangaea was formed.
@@blackchang1981 I thought we were talking about gods? If they do exist they're probably pretty old....
Jaguars are in Africa.
@D M Black Jaguars are found in South America but they do have Jaguars in Africa and Asia
The audio in this video is terrible
Sheba wasn't a goddess though
🤔💯
Myth??? THOTH??? A MYTH!!! 😂😂😂😂
Honestly I couldn't get past the audio.
without nancy mr that is i dont watch the show
I thought that Egypt god was Anubis
Anubis is one God. Egypt has a pantheon. The main God of Egypt has always been Amun'Ra.
Tyisen Saunders yea Ik ra he’s the sun god
It was
Anubis=Anubu=Anpu....same god different language translations
Hey Beo, SPEAK UP PLEASE
Well sad for them cause they blew it! Done with the serious but it’s our history and we have many AfricanAmericans that can finance and produce movies series and stories so we can see them and as we have seen with the BLM protest many are not as racists as we think they are
And Jesus?
You left out the Orishas
The orishas arent in this video but we added them in part 2. You can watch part 2 here:

@@humblehistory141 thanks will do
Thank for using Egyptian names and not the FALSE Hellenistic one.
just dont watch it i dont
Man they ain't no jaguars in Africa...educate
You mean anubus
Anubis and Anpu are different names for the same god. We chose Anpu because it is the older name and the name that the Egyptians would have most likely used. Anubis is the Greek (Hellenized) version of the name. As we did research for this episode, we found that this is common with many Egyptian names. For instance Ausar, Djehuti, and Hetheru have been changed to Osiris, Thoth, and Hathor respectively. Both sets of names work and many historians use either set
@@humblehistory141 ok then sorry
@@humblehistory141 I always new the Egyptian GOD OF THE DEAD as anubis
