AMERICAN HORROR STORY Recap: ‘Smoldering Children’
December 8, 2011 by Ben Phelps
Filed under American Horror Story
Contractually, Connie Britton must be signed for all 13 episodes this season, because why else would she make a one-scene appearance in this episode? Violet, Constance, and Larry have all had weeks off, so it’s not like everyone gets used every week. Vivien’s scene just felt like it was there because Britton had to have some screen time, and to remind people that, hey, Vivien is still in the mental hospital! But it had little connection to the rest of the episode, which functioned more as an info-dump about Violet’s situation and the history between Constance and Larry.

So, tonight’s About Last Night segment is sad and pathetic because I was at a work event all night (I know, poor little reporter girl), so I only got the chance to watch GLEE before my TiVo deleted everything else. (The TiVo is lucky to still be alive.)
But I have things to say about GLEE and I certainly want to hear what you watched last night…

Filed under #1 featured, HIMYM, How I Met Your Mother
If you haven’t seen tonight’s episode of HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, it’s about that time to walk away from this blog post and come back post-viewing. Seriously, stop reading.
For those of you who did watch, please tell me you were as stressed out as I was for the entire duration of the episode. I hate to think that I was all alone in freaking out, just waiting for the other shoe to drop. And also please tell me that I wasn’t the only one left feeling really bummed out when that dangling shoe did in fact drop…and dropped hard.
So what’s all this talk of stress and dropping Manola Blahniks?
