More importantly: How much juice do you think Ryan Murphy has with his friend / Emma Roberts' aunt Julia?

Enough that, say, he could talk her into an under-the-radar cameo as Chanel's mother for the finale?

Jamie Lee Curtis was mostly doing yoghurt commercials for a while.

Candle Vlogger has mostly been a background character so maybe. Fat suit perhaps?

Edit: Actually Breezy Eslin is heavy in real life. So that probably wouldn't work.

She's not opposed to tv too. She did that horrible show with the CW, Ringer, and the short lived sitcom, The Crazy Ones, with Robin Williams. I'm hoping that means something could theoretically be drafted up.

Other Scream Queens I wouldn't mind coming into the fray: Sigourney Weaver, Danielle Harris, Linda Hamilton (who did Chuck, so she can do tv), Neve Campell, and Jennifer Love Hewitt (who did Criminal Minds recently). They all did horror around the time Scream Queens gives homages to.

I actually really like Ringer. It was intentionally way over the top. At least, I hope it was intentional.

I didn't realize she worked on Scream Queens, but I did know that Langenkamp and her husband had an FX company.

Not to derail extensively but yes, yes it is. I stopped watching halfway through the "Morgan's 90 minutes of backstory" and from what I can tell every episode since has been supremely poo poo.

I mean what's the deal with that show, almost every season has started out very good and proceeded to get very bad. Like, the first couple episodes of this season were actually fantastic!

That doesn't really matter. It's not like it was actually Nick Jonas is the devil costume all those times between his appearances on the show.

It's a Ryan Murphy show. They'll blow it off by saying she wore Spanks, or just not mention it at all.

Thanks to Candle Vlogger we know she has motivation. Maybe her grandma is dead all along, the one who supposedly sent her that chainsaw. Dead at the hands of the Red Devil Killer.

Sadly unlikely given this

During the promotion of her new thriller Secret in Their Eyes, Roberts revealed why we won't be seeing her in any upcoming seasons of AHS!
She explained:
"I'll tell you why—because I can't even get through the commercials. I am the most fitful scaredy cat. When the first American Horror Story came out, remember the first poster? I said to him, 'OK, I curse you. I stop at a traffic light and I have to look at that thing on billboards. It gives me the willies. What is that? What is going on? What have you done?'"

Candle Vlogger (the character) is from Antarctica?

http://www.designntrend.com/articles/63828/20151031/scream-queens-breezy-eslin-why-jennifer-obsessed-with-candles.htm

quote:

In a new interview with Cosmopolitan, Eslin revealed that there's actually a reason why her character has a strong connection to candles, and the actor has known about it ever since she got the audition script for the role.

"Jennifer is originally from Antarctica and in Antarctica there are, like, solid weeks of darkness each year; it's very cold and, well, fire is her best friend," Eslin shared."So then somehow the Bath & Body Works catalog came to her house and she started reading and she realized she could have the warm, comforting feeling of fire and also these scents of spring and summer and flowers, and all sorts of things without being in those places, but as [a means of escapism] from her barren, icy homeland."

Found this when I googled "Breezy Eslin," because I thought it was a nickname for Abigail Breslin (hope her character dies ASAP).

Of his own sister who is also somehow black despite having two white parents? We're already running a high chance of incest with Pete possibly being a tranny.

They're fraternal twins, meaning 2 eggs. It is physically possible to have 2 different fathers if each egg is fertilized around the same time by 2 different men. So it could be only half incest and the baby mama got Eiffel towered by Grace's dad and a black dude. Wouldn't be the first double team mention in the show. And not the most hosed up thing Murphy has done in a show.

That was quite a shameless Samsung plug. I can't complain, because that was my exact phone, so I can pretend I'm waiting for Chanel to call. Now if only anyone ever called me.

Sort of an anticlimactic reveal, assuming it's an actual reveal and not a stupid and infuriating cliffhanger.

the truth
Dec 16, 2007

The phone call made it clear there is a yet another co-conspirator, so hopefully there is still a sister and not twisted tranny incest. Pete is missing an Adam's apple, though.

That makes pretty much everyone a possible suspect. Now I think it is either Hester (fake poison? Turned around and looked at something off camera for no reason right before the lights went off in the mall) or Chanel (significant established connection with Pete, and he probably did the spray tan thing for her), but thanks to this thread I know Candle Vlogger is apparently a very real possibility.

I hope it isn't #5.

I hope next week is awesome and gives us a satisfying finality.

I hope this show gets a second season and is done in an anthology style like AHS so people can come back. Almost the entire cast is great.

the truth
Dec 16, 2007

My overall theories of each major character:

Chanel: a murderer, maybe tub baby, possibly some sort of con artist (says Grace is the only person who is as smart as her, Radwells had never heard of her supposedly old family, she was not this alpha in the spray tanning scene), maybe adopted.

#2: dead, an alcoholic, not the tub baby

#3: not a killer, not the tub baby

#4: dead from meningitis before the show started

#5: a bad actress, has some shady behavior (placing phone down in the last scene and distracting #3 and Hester so Chanel would be alone with Munsch) that could possibly be attributed to her alleged desire to kill Chanel (according to her Internet search results). Probably not tub baby.

#6/Hester: high likelihood for tub baby in my opinion, many suspicious behaviors and quotes in many episodes.

Grace: not tub baby, not Pete's co-conspirator

Zayday: not tub baby, innocent

Candle Vlogger: lol

Chad: lol

Niecy Nash: lol

Dean Munsch: a murderer, possibly Pete's co-conspirator which would make him tub baby incest tranny

Wes/Grace's dad: nope

Pete: a killer, but who and how many? Transgender tub baby who likes half-sibling incest? Sprayed acid on the previous Kappa president for Chanel? I think he is not trans and was just caught up in stuff that got out of control, either by his obsession with Chanel (if she is tub baby) or because he got close with Boone, who actually just started out as his source. Maybe it is Chanel and he killed Boone and Gigi (another explanation for not talking in those scenes other than keeping the identity a mystery from the audience) so they could get away together, but she is planning on killing him at the end and be the sole survivor.

I truly have no idea who Pete's co-conspirator is, but I'm in the same boat as the truth regarding chanel. There's got to be more to her than has already been established, her story and convenient rise to prominence doesn't feel quite right. Also, Dean Munch has something on the side going on as well that will come to fruition I'm sure.

Favorite dialogue of the episode was with Chad and Pete at the DDS house. "You do not bequeath a box of lube to an acquaintance." "He was my deep throat," "so you were gay lovers?"

Do we have one or two more episodes?
