A Good End To A Good Story: American Horror Story (Spoilers)

This week concluded the first season of American Horror story, and the final season that deals with the Harmons, and the many ghosts of the Murder House. Yep, all girls out there can begin the deepest pout in knowing we likely will not see Tate Langdon ever again. (The horror!!!) While at first, I was furious at the decision I have actually come to terms with it. All in all the point of the show was made pretty clear at the end that haunts don’t just end because we humans will it to end. Honestly, even the characters ended their stories respectfully, and for that I give the writers some serious credit on that. Going into this more I am going to begin to explain why the characters stories actually ended really nicely, and in a mostly non cliche way.

Bella Swan Wishes She Was Her

1. Violet

She honestly seemed to like Tate so much that she would look past all his actions, and try to tell herself that he didn’t remember he killed those kids, or that he has changed. She accepted that he was a monster, a monster that she loved, but she loved her mother and family more. In the end she gave respect to those who cared about her most, and sent him away. I liked this because it was honest, and showed that Violet may be a teenager, but has a head on her shoulders. One that will not allow some silly boy to  blind her from the truth. Who would date a serial killer? Considering a certain book/movie kind of ruined the strength of women by allowing her female character to look past all the monstrous sides of her love and just accept it. Violet believes in justice, and she knows the best justice for Tate is to not let him have what he wants: her. It was a very mature thing to do.

Fall Line Up: Sexy and Shameless

This fall line up has gone through pretty well. I have to admit that the newest shows have actually garnered my attention. Along with a couple shows that have either made me sit there dumbfounded at the fact that they got green lit, or that they have become so clever by the newest season that I’m dumbfounded it got this far.

American Horror Story

American Horror Story
First to talk about is American Horror Story for it’s wonderful abundance of weird. (The weird that makes you continue watching, however.) There is actually something for everyone. At least under the age of 50, and maybe a few exceptions that are above. (Cool parents for the win!) My mother for example would probably find it odd, and be too creeped to continue further past the second episode. This is also the woman who watched all 5 seasons of Queer as Folk with her daughter. (My mother is a critic.) Although, for my generation, this is like giving condoms to teenagers. Easy sell based on the fact that it is supernatural related. Then enough older references to movies like Rosemary’s Baby, Poltergeist, and even Beetlejuice. It can easily get a crowd, as it is a viewer magnet.
