No,it's been renewed for 2 more seasons. For that reason alone, it seems to me they're going to go back in time to stop Michael.

Roberts is an awful actress, afforded a career strictly because of Julia and white privilege. Paulson and Fern both look like they're going to be deliciously bitchy,together and apart.

I don't think Outpost 3 is built on top of the Murder House land. Murder House was not set near a forest and Venebale said Outpost 3 used to be a boy's school. Timothy and Emily were only brought to Outpost 3 within a few weeks/months of the blast, not enough time to go Murder House - Boy's School- Outpopst 3. I'm guessing the "boy's school" was actually a male version of Miss Robichaux's Academy for warlocks, and Michael was shipped off to that school at some point. It would appear Michael is the leader of The Cooperative. Other than Rubber Man, I don't think we'll see any actual Murder House crossover until episode 6, when Lange is slated to appear. The thing that has me uneasy about this season is that,judging by Michael'shair length in trailers, there appears to be a great deal of going back and forth from the present to the past. Roberts and Jackson weren't in the episode, but they probably have great agents who negotiated main credits for them and they'll be in most episodes. Emma Roberts is a blight on this series considering her past of physical abuse. It totally makes me side-eye Murphy that he keeps giving her work. Between that and the constant gratuitous bare ass shots, and Murphy gives me a very icky feeling.

He played David Madson in American Crime Story Versace. I can't wait to see what he does with Michael. I love that they played that song You Belong to Me from Murder House when Michael made his entrance.

In one of the trailers, they have a pic of Dylan McDermott lighting a match looking dazed. That's from Season 1 when he gets lured downstairs so Rubber Man can go to the bedroom and rape Vivien. I really hope that don't don't take the lazy way out and have the coven witches go back in time to stop Michael from being born, but I think that's what's going to happen. Not only is that lazy, but it essentially erases the whole first season.

I'm beyond jazzed for this season, but still managing my expectations. AHS always careens off the tracks after episode 4 or 5, with the exception of Murder House. Not getting why he keeps giving Emma Roberts work when she beat Evan Peters, but okay. I didn't like Coven at all. Murder House was just so pitch perfect all the rest pale in comparison. After watching the trailer, my hunch is that the black snake and rubber man are both Michael and he's going to try and impregnate someone. Cody Fern is going to be a welcome addition to the Ryan Murphy Canon. If he's half as good as Michael as he was as David on ACS Versace, we're in for a real treat. Choosing to play a gay man for your first big/breakout role is a bold move, regardless of his actual orientation. He was robbed of an Emmy nomination. I think the "crossover" aspect of Murder House/Apocalypse will be some scenes from the past showing Michael interacting with Tate and Vivian and finding out he's a child of rape. THREE MORE DAYS!

Please let this mean Zane is gone. Kelsey as the publisher for Empirical is beyond ridiculous and once again pushes the narrative that youth trumps experience.

wait. a man writes this show? I realize there's probably a writing team, but in no way should a man be the lead writer for a show about women. But then, I've always believed Darren Star was a misogynist, so that tracks.

They've destroyed every character on this show except Diana. Diana is the only one with an arc. With each season she evolves more emotionally. Everybody else? They're the exact same person. If they hadn't started adding layers to Carrie, Miranda, etc I would have bailed on SATC after season two. Up to that point, the characters were all insufferable. That's where I'm at with this show. These people are AWFUL. And for the love of God, will someone please think of the children and fix Kelseys's foundation ?

Kelsey thinks Zane is the type of guy to force himself on a woman while she's inebriated, yet she dated and still has feelings for him. Hello, writers? A little continuity, please? Also, can we not praise men for not being rapists? The Andrea Merkle looking reporter said what we've all been saying. "You're 27? SERIOUSLY?" Ugh, please break Maggie and that buzzkill of a girlfriend up. She's a fucking nag.

Don't get me started. As much as I loved ACS Versace, there was absolutely no justifiable reason why Italian actors weren't cast to play Gianni, Donatella and Anthony. Even Cunanan's character was cast with an actor of the same ethnicity (Filipino.) I remember when the Scaramucci thing was trending. Nobody thought twice to make mafia and gangster jokes, even celebrities like Rosie O'Donnell. Chris Cuomo finally spoke up and said how offensive it was. Until we make more of a stink about it, people will think the generalizations and stereotypes are okay. I didn't blink when I saw that Enzo lived with his mother. I know so many Italian men that live at home well into adulthood. Although I originally hoped his Mom lived with him and not vice versa. But, yeah, the overbearing screechy Italian mother thing is a tired trope, as was the use of "bruddah" for brother. Cause, like, we're stupid and ignorant and Joe Pesci once said "youts" instead of youths that one time.

Christ. They keep Liza and Charles together for three episodes then break them up? What a waste of Laura Benanti.

This so hard. If they were at some snobbish uppercrust party, go for it. But to steal from a clinic? Yeah, that's gross.

To be fair, it is more realistic for someone Jane's age to be drawn to a Pinstripe over a Ben. Jane is wildly immature and self-absorbed and Ben is, well, neither. jane's too easily threatened by someone with it all together because she's a mess. Pinstripe is a trope in the same way Jane and Ben are. He's the smarmy but good-hearted guy with commitment issues that's great in bed. (Big) Jane is the neurotic, self-centered immature Manhattan girl. (Carrie) Ben is the handsome but boring guy every woman knows she should settle down with but doesn't. (Aidan)

wait. Wait. WAIT. Jane blows off work to go to Paris and hang with her friends knowing her boss is there, too? Out of nowhere Richard shows up in Paris to profess his love to Sutton when they've barely crossed paths this whole season? Pinstripe offers to pay for Jane to have her eggs frozen? My God, is this show campaigning for Most Unrealistic Writing - Drama Emmy? And i can't even with Sutton agreeing to leave Paris and ditch her job for a guy. Christ, this show.

Sam Page was on All My Children. He was either Ryan or Leo's estranged brother.

they're trying to make Jacqueline look out of touch to support the will they/won't they replace her story line. It's a very sudden left turn and it just didn't work for me. I think maybe they were trying to lead up to it with the conflict between Jacqueline and the new board member, but it all feels really choppy and uneven, story-wise. Had they brought this up earlier in the season and then built on it, maybe it would have created more tension. There's no tension. She won't be fired, and if she is, she'll come back the way Jane did.

Re: the comments being taken away. A lot of women's sites I used to frequent got rid of their commenting section because they became over run with MRA types, and that was before the 2016 election. I can only imagine the shit show that goes on now. I don't know any online magazine/entertainment site that has a vibrant, intelligent commenting community anymore. (Excluding this site.) Dlisted, maybe. But that's it. I was surprised to see Billy Magnusson in this episode. I thought he was strictly a film actor now after Into The Woods and that Tom Hanks/Spielberg movie. Who'd he piss off that he's back to doing one off appearances on random TV shows? Are they bringing him back? Oh, look. Jaqueline is about to be replaced as EIC by someone younger at the same time they all head to Paris for Fashion Week. Where have I heard that storyline before??? N

The Kiss was a dud for me. They'd already had them kiss so many times before that it was anti-climactic.. And cliche. Hoo boy,is this show cliche. The re-introduction to each other at the Xmas party; the request for the cabby to turn around; the kiss in the snow. We've seen it all so many times that it completely sucked the air out the The Kiss for me. I don'tlike Zane or the actor who plays him. I've seen more than one interview where he's said crude things. Zane reminds me of Finn (Mtthew Goode) from The Good Wife. They added a male lead character because Josh Charles left, but they had no idea what to do with him so he became this one dimensional prop. Not only is Zane boring, he's a lech. I've said this before: in the current Me Too climate, having a male character so sexually charged in the work place and who kisses a female co-worker without her consent at a Christmas party is really tone deaf. They either need to write him as less ass grabby or get rid of him. Same for Lauren. She was fun in the first season. Now she's just there to facilitate other character's story lines. I'm sensing a Josh/Caitlin pairing.

I love how Jane went from non-orgasmic to being able to have an orgasm with no problem and after little to no intercourse. So realistic. As soon as Pinstripe came back I knew Ben was doomed. This show has a problem with writing arcs. Everything gets dropped after two episodes.

Ahhh! I FINALLY figured out from where I'd seen the actress that plays Brooke before. She's on a Match.com commercial. She's the woman who likes to travel and likes "nice guys." ( Come find meeee!) Jane is literally every navel gazing first person essay writer I know. They manage to make every single tragedy about them. It Happened To Me: The Same Thing That Happened to You But, Like, Much Worse by Jane Sloane.

I don't know. If I had a boss like Jacqueline, I'd probably do very little work, too. Does she ever get upset? Is there ever a crisis? Does she ever have to put an employee in their place? She's like the polar opposite of Amanda Priestly. I know Joanna Coles was an EIC of a magazine and is now a producer of the show and Jacqueline is based on her, but come on. I've always felt Jacqueline was too perfect. Her character needs more layers.

Why do i get the feeling that next week Jane will have pregnancy scare and we'll find out Ben is against abortion because he believes in God. Then the rest of the episode will be about what decision should Jane make even though she hasn't even taken a pregnancy test yet. (But why let that stop days of angst and sucking the air out of every room?)

I really wish they hadn't tied Sutton's love of skeet shooting to her alcoholic mom and just let it be that she enjoyed the sport. Also, what kind of job lets you take off for a few hours at your leisure?

OH MY GOD I CAN NOT WITH JANE AND HER FEELS. She's exhausting. she has some self-righteous opinion about everything. Her face is constantly pinched like she's in pain. i can't stand her.
