American Horror Story Announces A Murder House and Coven Crossover Season

American Horror Story’s creator Ryan Murphy dropped a bomb about the future of AHS while attending EW’s PopFest. Murphy had already mentioned a future revisit to AHS’s third season Coven, linked to Lady Gaga’s Roanoke role, however, Murphy further revealed it would actually directly link to another of the show’s seasons as an official crossover.

Murphy revealed, “We do know what we’re going to do“. “It’s not going to be the next season, but we are going to do a season that’s a crossover between Murder House and Coven together, which is very bizarre.

Murphy further clarified, “There will be characters from Murder House and characters from Coven together” which as you can imagine it sent the panel’s audience into a spin. However, Murphy also confirmed the crossover will not take place during the show’s seventh season, largely because of scheduling such huge names at the same time. Murphy stated “I’ve already started going to actors from both of the seasons, quietly, saying, ‘I think in the window if you could fit us in,‘ “so yeah , it’s fun. It’s weird.”

Alan, Zorn’s son walks into the room and sees his dad on the floor, but soon finds out he is his robot clone. Zorn tries to leave work and is soon tasked with working on a project with a co worker he hates.

Alan is really close to Craig and Zorn works with his coworker to figure out how to make Alan like him. He soon brings robot Zorn to his work so he can replace him. Zorn and Alan head to the game event to get the new game Alan wants because Zorn thinks of it as a quest. He might be a weird guy but he really does want to be a good father. Though this will blow up in his face since he is letting his son skip school and not telling his mom.

Zorn and Alan go through the line and Alan is weirded out by his dad as usual. Zorn’s robot and his coworker Todd connect because of what the robot says randomly. Todd thinks Zorn actually cares about what he is saying.

Edie and Linda drink and beat up robot Zorn. Linda kisses the bot before Alan and Craig walk in. When Craig beats the bot with a frying pan, Edie attempts to fix it and activates it’s detonation mode.

Todd freaks out on Zorn but Zorn rebuffs him before heading home to destroy the robot. Alan and Craig team up and take out the robot by pouring wine on it. Alan and Zorn go and get pizza to make up for it and  the episode ends with the bot’s last words.

Another weird episode, yet one that still had some depth. It was interesting seeing the character’s try to hang out. Alan and Zorn are so different and Craig works will well with Alan which Zorn just hates. Interesting to see the two women in Zorn’s life as friends, life just got harder for Zorn I am sure.

Family Guy S5 E4 ‘Inside Family Guy’

The episode begins with a parody of Dr.Who called Dr.Who Farted. The Dr has farted in his Tardis and he and his assistant can’t leave until it dissipates. The characters are unsure of who speaks first in the episode and we soon back out showing that it is being filmed.

The characters all talk about the show Office style starting with Lois. Lois is always having trouble with Peter cheating on her.Chris says that originally the show was all about him.

James Woods then goes to talk to Stewie who says he really does hate the show and only does it for the boost for his side business. James Woods goes into the writers room and we find out that Quagmire has found god.

Peter runs into the writer’s room angered by a script. Peter has become a terrible monster on the set and won’t even rehearse unless its with balloons. Stewie calls Fox to get Peter fired and replaced. We find out Brian was “killed off” to make a movie. Peter has no idea he was fired. There is a nice Adam West cameo where he is dressed as 1960’s Batman.

Peter finds out he was shot and killed in the next episode. We find out he is being replaced by David Spade who is playing Uncle Ricky. Peter is given one more chance but he quickly blows it. Peter decides to live in a hotel for the time being and is happy to be in a cheerio’s commercial.

Peter is having a good time not working because he can do his own thing. James Woods talks about the flashbacks and how hard they work to get these done. Peter is soon thrown out of the hotel for not paying and ends up in a terrible apartment.

The cast is about to film the first episode without Peter and we find out that David Spade is really the most annoying person to work with. Peter gets on the lot by successfully pitching a show to the network executives. Peter apologizes to everyone and he is brought back onto the show. Getting rid of David Bowie is darkly humorous as he gets Sofia Vergara deported. The last thing we find out that Peter does this thing every week, before seeing a super cut of all the times Peter was hit in the sack with a bag of nickels.

 

The Simpsons Season 28 S5 E5 ‘Trust but Clarify’

Homer and his family go to a museum and soon Homer ends up seeing the world as impressionistic art. A nice couch gag really, quite majestic really.

The episode begins with a parody of Making a Murderer revolving around Itchy of Itchy and Scratchy. Krusty soon appears on screen to peddle a candy, that is actually good unlike other things he has sold.

Homer’s ambition knocks out his apathetic side and alcoholic side. Homer now feels like he could do more if he changes up his look.

Kent Brockman is on a talk show, and performs a little Talking Heads.  Kent Brockman’s lies finally catch up to him and apologizes to the world. Right after this Brockman is fired and replaced by Arnie Pie.

Homer decides to get new clothes and of course asks for Marge’s help. Bart is out to prove Krusty’s candy is something good even though it is giving people awful side effects. Homer gets a fitted suit, and now feels like he can do anything.

Bart and Lisa sneak into Krusty’s factory and steal some chemicals to see what these candy’s are made of. Kent Brockman is looking for work but to no avail.

Homer shows off his new suit to his friends. The kids take their chemicals to Frink who finds the candy’s are filled with Formaldehyde. Brockman goes to work for a Buzzfeed type sight but isn’t what they are looking for, especially since they went bankrupt.

Homer goes to Burns for a promotion but is rebuffed because he thinks the suit is garbage.  Lisa brings her story about Krusty’s candy to Brockman who thinks he is unworthy to report any more. He heads to a former anchor support group.

Homer is about to continue trying to get a promotion when his other sensations take out his ambition and he goes to Moe. Brockman heads to show Krusty what his candy is doing to people who eat it. With this report he is back on top and has given up lying.

The Simpsons is such a classic show and it is good to see episodes based mostly on characters that don’t usually get the full spotlight. Kent Brockman really showed some depth in this episode and it was interesting see him at his lowest and highest in an episode.

Son of Zorn-S5 E5 ‘A Taste of Zephyria’

Zorn is in the office playing Minesweeper when a coworker disrupts him laughing hard. He shows him this terrible comedy about Zephyrians and this upsets Zorn to his core being a Zephyrian himself. I think its humorous that he thinks its really racist.

Zorn makes his son wear a special belt from Zephyria so he can show some respect for his nation. A friend of Alan’s named Layla is obviously interested in him and he isn’t sure what to do.

Alan asks his friend out for coffee and to do some work and she is totally up for it. Suddenly Zorn comes and steals Alan away with a lie, because of course Alan can’t be happy can he? At a Zephyrian restaurant Alan gets a text from Layla.

Zorn hates the Zephyrian restaurant because it is rather terrible and brings Alan home. Edie goes to talk to the neighbors about their talking gnome and Zorn comes to drop Alan off. Angered by the restaurant he destroys a trash can, and soon, the neighbors take the gnome in.

Alan once again invites Layla to hang out and watch a movie. Edie uses the neighbors fear of Zorn to get a few changes from the neighbors. Taking Layla to his father’s house he finds his father “bringing” Zephyria to him using Craig’s idea.

Zorn shows off his culture to Layla and Alan and it is rather odd. Layla is taken over by an evil spirit and hit in the face with a tongue from his instrument made of throats. She leaves when he yells at his dad, and goes outside to talk to her. When she is about to leave a harpoon launches out of his Zephyrian belt.

Edie’s lie comes out about Zorn being her fiance and the gnomes come back in full force. Alan proves to Zorn that he sort of cares for his culture and the belt is removed. Edie is watching Alan and Zorn be close when her neighbor calls, soon bashing Zephyrians. She finally takes out her Zephyrian weapon and destroys the gnome once and for all.

What an interesting and somewhat powerful episode. Zorn really is upset that there is so much racism towards Zephyrians. This show keeps pulling me back for more and that is good as it is so weird.

The Last Man on Earth S3 E5 ‘The Power of Power’

The group finds themselves in a huge building where the power still works somehow. The building is amazing and even has food. Something they are most excited for is working toilets and Tandy tells them they are home.

Lewis is a stick in the mud but finally concedes to living there. They are awoken by Tandy driving around in a small car. The gang splits up each taking a floor and Todd ends up staying with Melissa. They are having a blast when the power goes out.

Tandy confronts him and Lewis walks off annoyed. Todd goes to talk to Melissa and lets her know Gail dumped him. She hugs him which is one of the first actual human things she has done in a while, its good that she loves him.

Tandy makes a house for Carol after putting her in the stocks for punishment.Todd sees Melissa again and finds she burned her shirts but wants to have a baby with him. Things are as weird as they always are wherever these weirdos are and that is part of what makes this show great.
