American Horror Story season four debuted this week on FX with “Monsters Among Us”, an excellent introduction to a fantastic world of the weird and wacky. We discuss erotic Tupperware(tm) parties, the ethics and morality of the Freaks, David Bowie anachronisms, and struggle with Kathy Bates’ accent. All that and your typically stellar fan feedback. Can’t wait for next week!
Guess who’s back with a brand new podcast! Cecily and A.Ron get the feed started and the party rocking by discussing the upcoming season of American Horror Story: Freakshow, strong female roles, diversity, and finally ask if American Horror Story is the most feminist show on television?
Special thanks to Brian G. for commissioning this custom podcast using our Subbable subscription system! Brian decided to have us take a peek at FX’s The Americans, episodes 101 and 102, “Pilot” and “The Clock”, and we were only too happy to oblige. The Americans is a taut, well made, great looking, and stylish thriller set in the heydey of the Reagan Administration revolving around two Russian intelligence agents deeply embedded as American civilians. What did we like? What didn’t we like? Listen and find out! Thanks again, Brian!
Jim, A.Ron and Eric three way bang the Fargo wrap up for season one. We talk the finale, possible plots for season two, more Fargo story telling innovations, and A.Ron learns to stop worrying and love the Gus. All this plus a heaping helping of your awesome feedback!
The first season of FX’s Fargo is in the books, and what an impressive rookie season it was. A.Ron and Jim have some small quibbles about the finale, but overall are impressed. Next week we come back for a season one wrap up cast. Let us know what you thought!
Jim and A.Ron discuss the latest episode of 24: Live Another Day, and debate the morals of terrorists, the ethics of doctors, and try to get down to the bottom of the race for ineptness that is Poor Man’s Orlando Bloom versus Benny B-RAT’s goon.
Jim and A.Ron ponder the meaning of the latest excellent episode of FX’s Fargo, “A Fox, A Rabbit, and A Cabbage”. Thing discussed; more evidence of Lorne’s supernatural flavor, Lester’s increasingly bad life decisions, turducken, Roller Girl, the “platinum era” of television, and more possible ways to tie in the series, the movie, and potential future seasons. All this, and a few inches of fluffy white feedback, coming right at ya!
Jim and A.Ron are super impressed with this episode of Fargo episode 108, “The Heap”. Lots of innovative and ballsy film-making on display, and we talk about it all. We talk about the couples, Gus and Molly, Lester and Linda, Key and Peele, Wrench and Numbers, the increasingly eerie Lorne, and machine gun themed baking. All this, plus a light dusting of feedback, and a segment from our Fargophile Eric from Personal Arrogants!
Jim and A.Ron talk about the latest episode of Fargo, 107, “Who Shaves the Barber?” Discussion topics include mathematics, philosophy, and masturbation.
Welcome to our coverage of Fargo episode 106, “Buridan’s Ass!” This week, we discuss white out conditions, make fun of French philosophers, and get into a heated debate regarding acts of god involving fish. All this, plus another light dusting of feedback, plus our now weekly discussion of Mormon theology. Enjoy!
