That sounds like some nasty condition.
"Where's Joe?"
"He couldn't make it, he has sour limey"
Here's what boggles my mind. This show is targeted at the same audience that people like Chris Rock say they won't play for anymore because they're "too PC". Doesn't this just go against everything they say they stand for?
With all the news and reviews going on this week I forgot to post this pro and con piece from NYT on the
wonderful!/horrible! Scream Queens

But they're not watching. And it's not that they're "too PC," it's that they're sick of this crap and can see how what it puts out goes against the world they want to live in.
I think that's true FindingNamo.
There's a way to do fun humor that offends everyone - Sarah Silverman - but then there's this, which just feels forced.

Well, now I feel like I have to watch it... ![]()
I found it stiff and wooden on all accounts. Emma Roberts is one note and is hard to watch for an extended period of time. He should have used someone else who was a better actress and could play various methods of manipulation.. I think the idea is ok and with a better script it could work but it just feels slapped together. Yes Nick Jonas is cute!

Maybe they change everything about it before Broadway.

Ha! Ha! Ha! Love it!!!
Okay kids, tonight's the night! Like some of the girls said last week:
1) sharpen your claws, jungle red (what movie again?)
2) more male nudity! more male nudity! ![]()

You guys do know this is on American network tv, right...

Okay, tonight it got real stupid. I mean, that 90s chick is going to a flip and kick the red devil so hard they fall backward behind a couch? Dumb.
The two ladies just show up for a sleep over and no one really cares?
Keke Palmer just has a chainsaw under her bed, and that's okay?
I thought the episode last night had some funny moments, but I was more amazed at some of the dialogue they got away with...
Jock to Chanel " I love how you shave your box in that interesting way"
Teacher to class " C U Next Tuesday" that one made me actually giggle
but I'll still give it some time. (No abortion jokes though; I'll leave that to you girls).
I thought the show before that with Rob Lowe was funnier.

I figured when no one posted about this show last night they were following the "if you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all" adage.

Only the Murphy/Falchuk/Brenan dream team (and apparently like the first years of Glee they are the ONLY three writers on staff,) still think that young people use terms like box and gash constantly and that just using such terms is HILARIOUS.

Last week my Facebook was all aflush with talk of this show. This week nobody talking about it.
I admit I was hopping this thread would be as fun as The New Normal one was...
"Box"? Jesus what is this, 1973?
Eric I thought so too.I guess if we started bitchiness and name calling like RuPaul's Drag Race some people may notice.

Spoilers: I mean the frat boys get cut up with the chainsaw. The street is completely empty. Later, no one even mentions it. It's so stupid. But Niecy Nash does make me laugh.
The homage to Titus Adronicus was unintentional, right? Ugh what an awful show (and yes, I'll keep watching.)
What is disappointing is that Murphy/and his co-0orts could have done something clever. The monologue about the Vietnam meaning of Texas Chainsaw is clever (even if I don't believe the creators believe it.
The homage to Titus Adronicus-
I actually thought it was homage to Monty Python's Black Knight and wanted him to try and kick and get the legs sawed.
Nicey Nash is so over the top she is hitting orbit soon!
