I’m not sure if Paul is being naïve because he is just 17 and absorbing the power that’s been revealed to him, or if he is honestly formulating a way to break open ascension to free everyone.

The Secret Circle: Return
Daddy’s home, and I have no complaints, as he looks like a brunette, bearded Daniel Craig.
Full Story »The Secret Circle: Valentine
I’m amused by their teen cynicism (they start so young!) for Valentine’s Day, that Cassie refers to as the “greeting card, florist, chocolate tier industrial complex” and Faye more succinctly calls “Anti-Independence Day”.
Full Story »The Fades: Episode 4
Rare is it that I watch something on TV and at the end I jump up, fist cocked, screaming, “Yes!”
Full Story »The Secret Circle: Medallion
It’s amusing how the show wants to establish Cassie as some kind of bad ass despite her kewpie doll looks and voice, but I do admire that she’s at least growing up.

The Fades: Episode 2
I want Mac to somehow help Paul, maybe get some powers of his own, or just generally be able to be a capable sidekick for him. I think that would appeal to them both, because they both need each other, and there is nothing embarrassing about that.

So it turns out, it wasn’t irresponsible witchcraft but the anti-witches council (aka witch hunters) that caused the fire on the boathouse.
Full Story »The Fades: Episode 1
I’m embarrassed to confess that the reason that I even learned about BBC 3’s The Fades was in a small review in Star Magazine that likened it to “Buffy the Vampire Slayer with an English accent.” Regardless of the source, that capper line made it impossible for me not to watch it.
Full Story »The Secret Circle: Fire/Ice
This episode had so many flashes of fun – and fire – that was ruined by the end with Jake showing up. The only redemption for me was that he didn’t talk. But it also means he’s not staying away, and we’ll have to deal with his brand of bad-acting brood for the rest of the season.
Full Story »The Secret Circle: Darkness
We’re back in the Circle for the new year and most things haven’t changed. Everyone is as dramatic and adolescent as ever, including (especially?) the adults.
Full Story »American Horror Story: Afterbirth
I appreciate the clever title of the season finale, “AfterBirth”, following last week’s “Birth” but also feeling like the remnants of something beautiful and frightening at the same time.

I predict that by next week’s season finale Ben will have completely lost it so he replaces Vivien’s occupancy in the loony bin, or he will join the other “living” dead in the Murder House. Either way, he’s not making it out functionally alive at the end.
Full Story »American Horror Story: Smoldering Children
At the end of at least the last 3 episodes I have sat up at the end and shouted “All right, already! Figure it out, Ben! Vivien! The House is a Bermuda Triangle of Spirits! Get with the program!” as I shake my fist in the air like an old man at the neighborhood kids.
Full Story »American Horror Story: Spooky Little Girl
F you, Ryan Murphy and AHS for giving me the worst nights of sleep before the opening credits of the freaking show. I basically huddled in a fetal position for two nights before I found the episode again on my DVR to watch it full through. In the daytime.

Vivien’s deteriorating is frustrating. I love her strength and to see her falling apart makes me want to scream.
Full Story »The Secret Circle: Balcoin
It’s probably unfair to say, but one of my favorite parts of the episode was watching Jake leave.
Full Story »American Horror Story: Open House
My favorite part of the episode had nothing to do with plot motivation. It was Vivien’s random sex fantasy that paid homage to Janet’s POV montage from Rocky Horror.
