Everything You Ever Need To Know About Life...

... you can learn from:


Myrtle Snow: Ah, figs, Mother Nature's brown diamonds. In the fall, the rotting leaves smell like an Olympian's ejaculate. Figgy pudding cures the blues and banishes acne. I'm mad for it. 

Happy 61, Frances Conroy! As sad as I am about Jessica Lange leaving the show after this season I think I'll be even sadder if Frances Conroy ever quits. During last night's episode I once again exclaimed about, as I seem to every week, what magic she can spin out of any and every bit of dialogue they throw at her. I think it was something about RC Cola? She made the words "RC Cola" seem like the funniest words you had ever heard in your life. You're the greatest, Frances Conroy.

Frances Conroy could bring a theater full of people to tears simply by reading classified ads from a newspaper.

Amen! When she said "RC Cola" I lost it and wholly because she really made that joke. You know, haha, RC Cola is dated, AHS:FS is set in the 50's, she's the sweetest, most indulging mother, yeah yeah, but without her inflection and elegance presenting that snack tray it would be a flat joke. If I had better video editing skills I would make an edit of every time she says "Dandy" because in one word she can deliver everything.
Edit: Sent this and a few of your other AHS posts to a few friends and they are convinced to start watching. To watch any AHS actually, so a resounding thank you is due. Thank you!
