    • Trivia
      The series was originally picked up by HBO with Tom Hanks as producer.
    • Goofs
      Mr. Wednesday's Missouri license plate starts with the number 3. In Missouri, only trucks have license plates that start with a number. His 1966 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham would start with a letter, or better yet would be eligible for Missouri historic vehicle plates.
    • Crazy credits
      The opening credits are set against a totem pole made out of various religious symbols fused with modern-day technology.

    No comparison to season 1
    Season 2 is so horrible and slow. Just seem to drag every episode out.
