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!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

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.

You're a brave woman to consider trying.

Amy typed what I was thinking. I'm not discussing even the title of the show with my mother. We can talk about "The Voice" though.

My mother, father and I watch The Voice as our "family show"! They are both convinced that Cee-Lo is a little person. They say it's all in his extremely small hands. I disagree, but it serves as good conversation fodder.

However, we also like to watch more challenging fare. My dad has been my True Blood watching partner since it came on. Ditto for Game of Thrones, which we got my mom hooked on over the summer. Those shows have some questionable adult content that we have nonetheless managed to navigate. Since we are in a holding pattern on GoT and True Blood is really so bad now that it doesn't deserve a lot of in depth commenting, I was thinking we might be able to try AHS: Coven because it's really good! But I seriously got like one sentence in with my mom and realized that I was just going to have to pull back from that because, no. Some things are not meant to be discussed with your parents.

It's the short arms! I think he's on the spectrum.

Oh lord. A couple of times last season, I watched the show on Sunday afternoon before family dinner, and started talking about it to my Catholic family, and had to repeat a hundred times, "DO NOT EVER WATCH THIS. DO NOT." Luckily, the fact that there is "Horror" right there in the title would be a tip-off.

My mother was having in-home IV therapy today while I was working on the laptop. I was horrified to hear the nurse recommend AHS:C to her as something she might enjoy because -- no. I protested and he insisted that it's a comedy/drama and really funny. My mom is really cool for 73 and likes a lot of stuff people wouldn't expect (Buffy, Angel, Firefly, Teen Wolf, Sleepy Hollow, Iron Man, and so on and so on) but I think AHS:C would be pushing the limits.

Comedy/drama? What show is he watching?!
