2)The conversion therapy scene in AHS was so… perverted. And it kills me that her sexuality was considered perverse, while the treatment was down right sadistic. Kills me even more that treatments of the like happened frequently. *flips through Foucault and Butler for answers*

I was skeptical when I started watching AHS because of Ryan Murphy and the terror that is Glee, but Asylum is actually amazing in my opinion. It’s definitely way more graphic than the first season and some scenes can be too much for me, but the overall story lines are awesome. I love Lana’s portrayal and the fact that her partner signed her away to Briarcliff was so scary because it was accurate for the time period. However, I think there’s so much more there to discuss than just the lesbian characters like Sister Jude’s struggle with her faith and Shelley’s institutionalization based on her desire for “too much sex”. This show is excellent because it makes you think rather than just attempts to scare you, although I still wish they would tone down the gore.

It’s too much shit going on to form a cohesive plot. In S1, the main focus was the Harmon’s haunted house. The opening was always interesting because it led to a new ghost’s background story. This season, the alien story line is just messing up the vibe for me. It just doesn’t seem to fit. I think it would’ve been cool if they would’ve just expanded the Bloody Face story line and focused on that or some kind of serial killer, but they’ve gone and spoiled the suspense of Bloody Face now. I am curious to know who’s present day Bloody Face, because there’s no way it’s the same one form the 60′s. He’d be way too old for that. I’m wondering if Lana is pregnant by him and now the child has grown up to be the “new” Bloody Face. Idk? I love Jessica Lange on this show. Her presence might be this season’s saving grace. If renewed for a S3, I hope she comes back. And even though I like s1 as a whole better, I do like Lily Rabe and Tate’s character better this season. They have better roles imo. I couldn’t stand Tate in S1, but I can deal with Kit. I hope he proves his innocence, but with Lily Rabe being Satan, there’s no way she’d rat Bloody Face out. She’s loving this too much. lol I saw the preview for next week’s episode, and they’re gonna have a psycho Santa running around the asylum. lol They’re about to get too silly and ruin the horror feel for me. I don’t mind campy horror-comedies at times, but I wish this show would stay pure horror.

Lana just can’t catch a damn break. My God!
