American Horror Story (Spoilers Inside)

[USS Redskins]

I am.

wow- I didnt see season 1 but this is one craxy f'ing show. Aliens, Exocisms, Nazi War criminals, masked killers, monsters, nympho's, lesbians, sadist nuns... OMG it is NUTS and I love every second of it.
Jessica Lange is such a great actress.... Is it wrong that I think she is smoking hot in this role? I mean, evil but its way hot she has lingerie on under her nun's outfit.... and she was kind of a tramp...

Never saw season 1 but have seen the last few episodes of season 2. It's very rapey and odd feeling. Kind of digging the storyline, though...

I like the second season, except for it being shot in the dark.

It has done well enough that they just gave it a Season 3.

I think I like this season a little better than season 1. It's picking up the pace which is good...I wasn't a huge fan in October. It's very creepy and the acting is great!

I wouldn't say you're wrong.

I'm definitely not about to put her in my personal celebrity top 5 or 10 or anything, but I'd say that it's very fair to objectively consider her as "sexy" in this role this season.

Which was clearly the point in creating this role for her - her inner struggle as a former lounge singer and sexpot, now as a nun trying to run away from her past and feeling guilty about the life she used to lead (and the murder she committed as a result of it).

For a 63 year old woman, she's carried this part really well.

I thought Season 1 dragged on and on at times. I also thought that they jumped around too often between the different "monsters" or "paranormal" elements within the house. Between the neighbor next door, Jessice Lange randomly coming in and knowing everything that was going on, the S&M rubber guy, the basement creature, everyone dying and returning as ghosts, etc. It became too much.

They started this season pretty fast paced but they honed in on a few key narratives very quickly and it's been gravy since.

I think the writers just weren't sure of how the show would develop in the first season, and what kind of reaction it would have from its audience, which gave it more of a "flying by the seat of its pants" creative feel.

This season feels way more planned out from the start.

On a side note: this may have been addressed already in this thread, but a few episodes ago, didn't Jessica Lange literally bump into one of the aliens? At the end of the episode, the one where she got drunk and the inmates had to watch a movie?

Was that ever resolved in any way?
