Review of Fire and Ice

American Gods: Fire and Ice (2021)
Season 3, Episode 7
10/10
It's all starting to come together...
2 March 2021
As it was with season 2, it wasn't until the later episodes when everything started to make sense. This has very much turned into an overarching series where each season is, while slow, building to something grand. Last season it was Mad Sweeney's stand, this season, while yet to discover, is something huge. Aside from being expertly shot (which we are spoiled by as it's now a trademark of the series), this episode contained a few gorgeous moments (though there was quite a bit of exposition and more plot points thrown in, it's more of a nitpick considering how good the rest of the episode is). The last 10 minutes, between the use of riddles that were set up earlier, and the amazing score, masterfully created a haunting, horror-like atmosphere, along with a fascinating yet enlightening reveal, and I'm hyped to see what they do over the next few episodes.
