I'm hooked. I like the fact that they're not making it paranormal, showing that the true evil comes not from the witches or aliens or the black rubber clad S & M weirdoes, but from your fellow man. I love how they're making the Liberals out to be wildly paranoid folks scared of their own shadows, and the Conservatives out to be cult-like extremists. No one is spared the writer's wrath. LOL

And...bonus Easter egg for those who are horror movie fans. Does anyone recognize the house Sarah Paulson and her wife live in and the house across the street where the strange beekeeper and his wife live? (hint: Illinois)
It looked like the Halloween house with Jamie Lee Curtis

And we're still waiting for a good one. ;-D
I met one of the Manson girls in 1974. She was traveling with a motorcycle gang and seemed to have something for me. Bangs covered the 'X' on her forehead. I didn't believe she was who she claimed to be until she pulled back her bangs. She scarred the hell out of me. My 'buddies' thought it was a hoot and would yell to me when she came around... Hey, Cap's (if I recall her name correctly) here and wants to seeeeeeeee you.' It was the week from hell. She still supported Manson and I remember her telling me there are a lot of Charlie's offspring running around.

Trust me, I know. First hand.

I was watching this video on YouTube, "The Manson children: Where are they now?" or something to that effect. They interviewed the son of Charlie and Mary Brunner. His name is Michael Brunner. I was watching it and thinking, "That guy looks so familiar. Where have I seen him before??" So I Google his name and find out that he at one time lived in the same Wisconsin city I live in. I then realized where I knew him from. He was my neighbor from two houses away. I knew the guy. Mike. He had a little boy that used to play with my daughter. Mike was the nicest, coolest guy, very friendly, always smiling.

I still get chills when I think of how close I was to Charles Manson, and I didn't even know it at the time.

OK, is anyone else watching?? I'm caught up and ready to discuss!! ;-D

Anyone? Bueller?
I have not watched this week's yet. I am not sure about it. Love the clowns but do not like Sarah Paulson's character this time around. At all. She seems to be overacting. And I'm not crazy about politics being so front and center. Sick of that.

Have not decided yet whether to stick it out or give up. :chew:

I haven't found any character I like much, really. But I'm trying to stick it out as I think I see where it's going. But they just keep making such dumb decisions.
Hey, I'm constantly freaking out and yelling about clowns that no one else can see. The restaurant alarm is going off late at night. Hey, I got this!! :facepalm_smiley:

And by the way, I have to fast forward the opening credits. Too much!!:oops:
