The first season of Banshee is so, so , so much better than this disastrous season of AHS, and while the current season of Banshee isn't off to as good a start, it still towers over this embarrassment.

Sort of like OZ SPOILERS

Livers are incredible organs. You can donate a part of one, sort of like giving up one of your kidneys.

It is endemic to the world the characters inhabit, though. As much as I don't want to see Debbie be used like that, it is a plausible, honest scenario and John Wells obviously doesn't shy away from such things. I will reserve judgment until I see how it plays out.

I also was able to sleepwalk through college same as high school…until I took a class that required study (Latin) and got burned. I never took economics, but I'd imagine it requires studying to memorize equations and what not at the least, and for someone like Lip who has never had to study, this could sandbag him. As…

And Ian and Kash, and Ian and Lloyd.

Yeah, the only way this doesn't lead to something awful is if he turns out to be some lonely wierdo looking for a friend. Maybe Debs will hook him up with Sheila.

"Give me your finger."
"No, son, it's PULL my finger."

Yeah Kev may be the most decent guy on the show. Solid dude.

Patrick totally had it coming. Carl went too far, but c'me on, he's a 10 year old Gallagher on the verge of being put on the street along with his family via a criminal swindle perpetrated by his own cousin. When you're poor, losing your house is a big deal.

Best show I saw tonight (sorry True Detective. Speaking of which, everyone talks about how Matthew M looks like death on that show, and he does, but Macy here looks much, much worse. They should do a crossover where Frank and Rust get drunk and go on bizarre rants.)

Still not really feeling it. Matt and Woody are excellent, but the universe feels so underpopulated—aside from Rust and Marty, I can't even recall any other character's names. The serial killer mystery has yet to make me care at all, and with only six episodes left, times a-wasting. I am intrigued by the Rust-Marty…

While I very much enjoyed the first two seasons (more the first than the second) the third one was shockingly improved, especially in the back four. Here's hoping the momentum continues this season.

I honestly cannot fathom anyone thinking this is good, much less better than Asylum.

Seriously, has any show ever gone from ****/***** to */***** in a single season? I've never seen such a precipitous fall in quality.

Nailed it. Even the excess isn't fun anymore.

Much as I try, I just can't care about anything that is going on this season. I'd forgotten Frankenkyle and Spalding even existed. It doesn't help that the characters just do whatever the plot requires of them, with no real agency of their own (except maybe Fiona.) It makes me respect Boardwalk Empire all the more,…

Mixed. Didn't connect to the mystery at all, but some of the interactions between the leads struck me as splendid black comedy, and I like the Absalom,Absalom!/Citizen Kane structure they've got going.

Awful, awful stuff. Embarrassing line readings from the young actresses, characters behaving according to the dictates of plot (Misty falling for the coffin ruse was particularly egregious.) Biggest drop in quality between seasons I've ever seen (albeit the other two seasons were often a mess, they never felt this…

Yes. It really found its voice in the back four of season 2, and has just continued to get better since then. It's also very cumulative, so the early stuff carries more resonance now to the point that I'd call it a masterpiece.
