American Horror Story: Coven review – 3×11: ‘Protect The Coven’

January 16, 2014 by Joe Lipsett

This week American Horror Story finally embraces its batsh*t crazy inner self as everyone joins in a lively game of “who’s the biggest psycho?” The correct answer is: everyone.

It’s the final episode of AHS: Coven for 2013, so naturally a few characters have to bite the bullet, right (nyuk nyuk)?

Everyone is reeling from the untimely death of resident cutie Kyle (Andy Mientus). And when I say everyone, I mean everyone, including me. As one of the only characters that I actually cared for this season, it was a bitter pill to swallow after last week’s final scene. At least they honored him with a Kyle-centric episode. Let’s review.

Smash review – 2×07: ‘Musical Chairs’

March 20, 2013 by yellowwait

This week on Smash: two major exits, a show closing, a new song, and the beginning of a cringe worthy love triangle. On the bright side, it’s the end of the dreadful Terry Falls (Sean Hayes) storyline. Let’s bitch! [Read more…]

Smash review – 2×06: ‘The Fringe’

Another week, another ho hum episode of Smash. While season two has been much more enjoyable then season one, there are still moments and plot points that make me shake my head. At least in this episode we get another killer song from Hit List to add to our playlists.

Smash review – 2×04: ‘The Song’

What a difference a week makes. After a solid start to the second season, Smash returns to some of the problems that plagued its first season including a nod to one of TVs most hated characters…like ever. On the bright side J-Hud closes the episode with one of the best songs from the series and of course, she kills it. Did I mention Sheryl Lee Ralph (the original Deena Jones!) shows up as Veronica’s mother? Let’s bitch.
