We are short handed this week.\u00a0 I’d like to think that people are taking a stance against the stupid decision to edit this episode, but we both know that’s a lie.\u00a0 I am here with my AHS gal pal, Melanie, and we slog our way through yet another “riveting” episode of AHS.\u00a0 We tried, we did, but they aren’t giving us a lot to work with, and I’m fucking cranky.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \u00a0Is this whole season just going to be mostly a series of flashbacks?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Melanie: \u00a0Yes, but aren\u2019t most season filled with an exorbitant amount? \u00a0<\/span>(Kent: You are probably right. \u00a0I can think of some instances and I am sure I am forgetting a lot more. \u00a0It seemed to me, and once again I am probably wrong, but it seemed like most of the flashbacks took a jump back in time so it fit the narrative. \u00a0In this case, they are retelling things that happened weeks or months ago and that just seems lazy in a way.)<\/b><\/p>\n

    Kent: \u00a0It appears that way, which Kent of 5 years ago would have loved. \u00a0Kent with no short term memory is struggling to keep things straight. \u00a0It\u2019s unfortunately confusing at times for me and I practically need a chart to keep shit straight.<\/span><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

      \n
    1. \u00a0Much like Emma Roberts, Mare Winningham showed up for one whole episode. \u00a0Are you satisfied with her role or would you have preferred more?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      \"\"<\/p>\n

      Melanie: \u00a0I was satisfied with her role of a badass bitch. \u00a0I think that people are doing a one and done because they don\u2019t want to be more associated with this piece of garbage of a season. \u00a0<\/span>(Kent: That is slow clap worthy.)<\/b><\/p>\n

      Kent: \u00a0I want more Mare! \u00a0I fear that with Frances Conroy being the last familiar face left, she\u2019s gonna be a one and done as well. \u00a0Which begs the question, if they were going to do all of these one and dones, why didn\u2019t they get more familiar faces?<\/span><\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

        \n
      1. \u00a0Does the truth behind the gas trucks disappoint you?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Melanie: \u00a0I was sure it was wine, so yes very disappointed. \u00a0<\/span>(Kent: So just in case any of the readers wish to buy Melanie a Christmas gift, she has been dropping some pretty big hints.)<\/b><\/p>\n

        Kent: \u00a0Absolutely, unless it\u2019s a lie. \u00a0I\u2019m still hoping for the joker. \u00a0This seems all too clever ridiculous at this point.<\/span><\/p>\n

         <\/p>\n

          \n
        1. \u00a0Give me your thoughts on Meadow and her death?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          \"\"<\/p>\n

          Melanie: \u00a0It just shows how people have really bought into Kai\u2019s bullshit. \u00a0At least she got some dick before she went. \u00a0<\/span>(Kent: See, that\u2019s underappreciated. \u00a0In the end, don\u2019t we all just want a little something something before we die? \u00a0Granted, I would also be happy with a box of Slim Jims, pizza, and a good horror flick, but that\u2019s just me. \u00a0Hookers and blow is still the way to go.)<\/b><\/p>\n

          Kent: \u00a0Meadow has been my favorite character this season and I hated seeing her go down the way she did. \u00a0It was a real bummer.<\/span><\/p>\n

           <\/p>\n

            \n
          1. \u00a0When considering AHS\u2019 rich history of antagonists, has Kai done enough this season at this moment to be rated higher than the main antagonist from any other season? \u00a0I\u2019m not going to try to list them because this has become an exercise in futility. \u00a0I would say that the first 5 seasons have multiple main antagonists, so you use your best judgement.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            \"\"<\/p>\n

            Melanie: \u00a0He has proven himself to be the main antagonist, which is so very hard. \u00a0Each season has more than one main antagonist…so bravo to him. \u00a0But he is still not the best of the worst, lol. <\/span>(Kent: Melanie and i talked about the main antagonists from season\u2019s past. \u00a0You would think that with all past seasons having multiple \u201cmain\u201d antagonists, that with Kai being the top of the heap here, that he would be ranked higher. \u00a0And then you consider the heap that he is on top of. \u00a0SIgh.)<\/b><\/p>\n

            Kent: \u00a0The thing is that he\u2019s the leader and has followers. \u00a0But he\u2019s also involving politics. \u00a0The Butcher didn\u2019t stoop to that level. \u00a0I want to give him credit for being a mastermind, but this has been so over the top that the credibility isn\u2019t what you would like it to be. \u00a0Until further notice, he\u2019s still in last, but has potential to move past Butcher and maybe the aliens from season 2.<\/span><\/p>\n

             <\/p>\n

            Were You Kentertained by this particular episode?<\/span><\/p>\n

            Melanie: \u00a0Eh, not really. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

            Kent: \u00a0This episode was a step down from the previous 2-3 weeks. \u00a0It answered so many questions, but knowing that everything is real and not in Ally\u2019s head has really lost a lot of luster. \u00a0They turned the scope back to politics. \u00a0Then there was the whole editing thing due to Vegas. \u00a0That whole thing was a bunch of horseshit. \u00a0If you are traumatized by violence at this point in time, it\u2019s understandable, most people are empathetic to your plight, but use some fucking common sense and don\u2019t watch a TV series titles American Horror Story. \u00a0Don\u2019t be a fucking idiot. \u00a0\u00a0I\u2019m miserable and cranky. \u00a0No, I can\u2019t say that I was Kentertained this week, but I look forward to next week in the spirit of optimism! <\/span>(Melanie: \u00a0I watched the unedited one, you didn\u2019t really miss much.)<\/b><\/p>\n
