I'm liking the campy style a more this season. Last season was just too much of a hodgepodge of WTFery that didn't cohere, and Season 1 had almost no characters that were enjoyable to watch (Jessica Lange's was about it). While I don't care much about what's going on with the younger characters, Lange, Kathy Bates, and Angela Bassett are electric for every minute of their screen time.

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!
And Patti Lupone! WHAT.
I am kind of surprised that this season is so woman-centered. I like it, mind you.
And all the men are monsters.
Well, except the butler and one-off characters like the doctors and detectives.
The butler is questionable, though, because he does Fiona's dirty work. And the missing tongue makes him quasi-freakish, if not specifically a monster.
Yeah, I was kind of including the butler as a monster, in the broadest sense.
Is the hubby a monster? We don't know a lot about him, but he doesn't seem like one just yet.
Also, I'm still crazy about this show!
And this show is still crazy, period.
Most fucked up show on TV. Masturbation and minotaur sex! I was trying to explain this show to my mother and I couldn't even...just, no.
But it's some damn good TV.
