The Stevie Nicks in the opening scene made me laugh and laugh.
You have the emotional maturity of a blueberry scone.

The Minearverse 6: Fiery Thread of Death
[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath. Oh, and help us get Terriers dvds!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Strix,
and THEN when she showed up again with the same song, I nearly died. That was just brilliant and hilarious.

ITA, I snerked all through that.
Also, Lange calling LaLaurie "Miss PittyPat" was pretty damned funny. And I am looking forward to her being a maid.
I don't love putting Gabourie in a "Chubbie's" uniform, and throwing "Don't make me eat you" out of her mouth. After the fat jokes and showing her mowing on a midnight turkey leg in Ep 1. If it's relevant to her character, OK. But right now? Fat girl is fat. Although she will cut you. I am predicting a schism in the House o' Witchery when she meets Laveau.
So...the minotaur head: unless LaLaurie had her own magic or someone doing juju for her, WhyTF is the head actually attached to her lover's body still, and he's alive? Is his own head under there, and if so, why didn't Laveau take it off? If Lil Swamp Stevie can cure ZombieBro with Spanish moss and gator shit mud, and Laveau can make herself and LaLaurie (and Lover Guy) immortal, surely she could heal him. I would like some explanation on how that came about.
Zoe sure is a follower. Maybe it's the fucking pigtails.
Also: no one works in that morgue? They have time enough to do some private body embroidery and black magicking? I mean, I estimate at least an hour to assemble and baste a new boy.

This is not at all the show to nitpick for reality.
Ryan Murphy talks about this episode. Slightly spoilery.

Oh, me too. The actress should have twirled while she reanimated those gators.
I somehow fell asleep just after the reveal of Marie Laveau in the modern day, so will have to watch the rest of the episode tonight to get my RDA of crazy.

"We have trust issues." Mylar
Oh my gosh, Jessica Lange talking to Angela Bassett about how black don't crack! I could watch that a million times and it would really never get old. I am really enjoying this show.
Little Miss Pigtails needs to grow a spine, though. I'm sure she'll get less wishy washy but right now, she's kind of a pain.
I'm intrigued that Sarah Paulson's character is married and that her husband knows all about her being a witch and is down with her doing magic in a very non-Darren kind of way.

He came out of nowhere, though! I don't remember her even mentioning a husband in the first episode.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I agree. I was so shocked. I nearly thought he was a vision or something.

I did seriously think about changing my tag line to, "Did we just marry the devil? Because I'm not sure I'm down with that."
