Watching this season feels slightly wrong to me. I did watch the first episode and even liked it, but it feels exploitative or something. I guess I just have to remind myself that this isn't a real freak show and the people chose to be involved. I do feel bad for little people and such, that the public general still feels free to snap pictures without permission and make comments. Some guy had a piece on CNN recently showing a typical day of people doing that sort of thing to him in NYC of all places.

Glad I am not alone in feeling uncomfortable at the exploitation. However, I try to tell myself these folks are actors and in the entertainment business.

The episode was interesting and well written.

Side Note: That clown was so scary. And i fear I will have nightmares about it.

I've only seen a bit of the latest eppy, and I kind of dig what I saw. I was beyond disappointed with S3 finale so I gave the show up, but I may have to dive back in and play catch up. I loved the movie Freaks! They even found their own Zippy the pin head?! Wow!

While it might seem exploitative to some, this was very real OUAT, and it provides people with disabilities some additional income for being themselves. I choose to look at it this way.

I just started watching. I didn't really like it. Just not scary and exciting like the earlier seasons. I liked the first season a lot more! It wasn't scary or entertaining when they were going on and on about how Ryan Murphy was having nightmares about that gross looking clown. I fell asleep for 7 minutes! I'm so bummed since I was a fan from the beginning!

Well, this weeks' episode was more than a little interesting. Michael Chiklis' character in love with Matthew Bomer..FGinn Whitrock's fine *ss dancing around in tight underwear[which he should always be shown in], planning to murder people, and that salesman character plotting the twin's murder..just one busy episode. Can't believe Elsa would fall for his line of bull**it.

    • I also assumed Tanquir was in Africa. Montega was in the Caribbean, more like Cuba.
    • I got the impression Andre was opening up to Dani about his feelings, that's why I thought he was about to admit he was in love with her. Dani has no idea that what's good for her is right in front of her face. Tomorrow we might get a love scene set to an R&B slow jam.
    • No, he was pining for that walking sleeping pill Ashley, and then later texted Dani for a hookup when he felt lonely. He and Dani got into it a bit as she’s not ready to be seen openly with him still, and they both realized they were hung up on other people - Andre on Ashley (thought he never said her name) and especially Dani on Bill.  Of course neither learnt anything and then proceeded to have sex again.   
    • I'm glad there's a pool set if only for the eye candy. I do think they need to be careful when filming. Today, the direction was off with Kai in the pool -- it looked like he was sitting in a wading pool, and it was clear there was no depth to the water. Also, as I mentioned before, the view from those large windows looks fake as hell.
    • From my notes: San Cristobal with an “a” is from ANOTHER WORLD. Mac, Carl, their fathers, Ian Rains & his father, and Paulina had history on that equatorial island. Paulina was visiting there researching her past & fell for both Ian & Jake McKinnon! San Cristobel with an “e” is from GUIDING LIGHT and is the island kingdom where Prince Richard & Prince Edmund were from. Others with history there were Reva when she was Princess Katherine, Jonathan, Olivia, etc.
    • Schenkel was indeed a disaster.     During 1985, the following characters exited the show: Brian Bancroft, Sandy Cory, Blaine Ewing Cory, Jamie Frame, the first Peter Love, Alice Matthews Frame, Ben McKinnon, Vince McKinnon, Mark Singleton, Perry Hutchins, Grant Todd, and Tony the Tuna.   The following characters were introduced and quickly disappeared Chris Chapin, Neal Cory, Dee Evans, Daniel Gabriel, Michaud Christophe, Edward Gerard, Daphne Grimaldi, Zane Lindquist, and Brittany Peterson.   The only successful characters Schenkel introduced were Bridget Connell, Vicky Hudson, and Jake McKinnon.   Schenkel recasted the popular Sally Frame with Taylor Miller when Mary Page Keller left AW.  Also, he recasted Peter Love twice in 1985 with Christopher Holder and Marcus Smythe.   Schenkel brought back Carl Hutchins for the Egyptian/Arizona treasure story with the poisonous dust.
    • Was Andre about to use the L word with Dani? 
    • Honestly, she should have went splat on the bottom since it looks only 4 feet or less.  I stopped watching by that time, but since they were in L.A. I could believe it. 
    • My mistake. San Cristobal. I've seen it as Alamainia, Alamainland, and my personal favorite, Ubilam ("Malibu" spelled backwards). I was sticking to non-U.S. locations, but I suppose Aremid could have been Canadian. Ah, yes. Haiti?
    • You're very, very welcome! Nice seeing things appreciated.
