During the Great Depression, an Oklahoma farm boy and a charismatic minister learn that they are key players in a proxy war being fought between Heaven and Hell.
"
Incredibly complex HBO show set during the Depression. A young man with strange powers is laying low with a traveling carnival. At the same time, a preacher is discovering his own powers.
The show moves very slowly and only lasted two seasons so there's not a lot of answers or explanations of the show's deep mythology. But if you have the patience it's very rewarding.
Powerhouse Cast: Nick Stahl, Michael J. Anderson (best known as the backwards talking dwarf from Twin Peaks), Adrienne Barbeau"
