Rageaholic Monkey posted:To be honest, I'm still way more hype about season 3 (the Katrina season). That was originally going to be season 2, right? I'm enjoying Darren Criss as Patrick Bateman in the meantime, but ultimately I'm just really looking forward to that next season. Just that setting has way more insane ideas ripe for Ryan Murphy to exploit than this one seems to so far. But we are only 2 episodes in... I really don’t think Ryan Murphy is the guy to handle Katrina, and I also don’t understand how it fits “American Crime Story.”

Rageaholic Monkey posted:Can we talk about how hosed beyond belief that episode last night was??? I read what happened to Miglin on Cunanan’s Wikipedia page and was like “I hope we don’t get to see that” Also Air Force One is one of three roles for Duke Miglin’s entire career. Henchman of Santa fucked around with this message at 05:21 on Feb 2, 2018 |

Also man, were the 90s a terrible time for cars or what? That Lexus was supposed to be a luxury car?

GobiasIndustries posted:Do I need to know a thing about Versace to enjoy this season? I loved the OJ season but I dunno how much of that was because of how familiar I already was with the case, I know absolutely nothing about Versace. The last episode doesn’t even have Versace at all. It’s mostly about Cunanan, who is not a particularly famous serial killer.

I’m just wondering when they’re actually going to get back to the show’s namesake

Regy Rusty posted:I mean it's pretty clear that this is the Andrew Cunanan Murder Hour and the Versace title is because he's the most prominent name attached to the events. Yeah but you also don’t hire Penelope Cruz and Ricky Martin and just quietly abandon them after two episodes. They seemed to be setting up something about their parallel lives and I wouldn’t be surprised if we get an episode with no Cunanan at all, especially because we have now seen all of his murders.

Sand Monster posted:Penelope Cruz, yeah, but I'm pretty sure Ricky Martin's phone isn't exactly ringing off the hook with acting opportunities. No, but he’s still much more famous than anyone on the show besides Cruz (and maybe Criss if you’re under a certain age).

clown shoes posted:Waco is a B show with A performances. It definitely has A actors (like half the cast of Boardwalk Empire) but I wouldn’t call them A performances. Not that they’re given great scripts to work with.

Very refreshing to watch someone get the upper hand on this rear end in a top hat

Milo and POTUS posted:What happens? Spoiler bars for sure. I can't watch for a few days The beginning of this episode follows him as he’s living with a wealthy older man, acting as his interior designer. He presents the older man with a list of demands including a pay raise, a new car and first class plane tickets across the world. The older man reveals that he knows everything about Andrew’s facade, having investigated him heavily soon after meeting him. Andrew gets pissed and quits on the spot.

I'm still not totally sold on this story needing to be told in reverse. Are they just gonna leap all the way forward to the hunt for Cunanan and his death in the last hour?

Ok, so we’ve established that a lot of this show is fictitious, but I really want to know how little of Andrew’s origin story there is true.

Rageaholic Monkey posted:Is it just me or is this season somehow even better than the OJ season? The OJ season was some of the most gripping television I've seen in years, but this... The Ringer did a piece about that recently but the reasons are fairly obvious. 1. The OJ trial is one of the biggest cultural events of the 20th century. Every American old enough to remember 1994 can remember tons of pieces about that case and it's had a major impact on how we cover celebrities for almost 25 years now. 2. That show had way more star power--Cuba Gooding Jr., David Schwimmer, John Travolta and Nathan Lane are significantly more famous than anyone in this show besides Penelope Cruz and maybe Ricky Martin, who have small roles. 3. Andrew Cunanan is a largely unknown serial killer. His acts came 20 years after the peak of infamous killers and he took his own life before ever getting caught. His most famous victim gives the show its title but he's barely in it. Plus no fashion designer has ever been as famous as OJ Simpson. But yes, it's a much better show than OJ. That season was really fun but it was 50% trash television, which fit the theme of what it was covering. This season is far more "serious." Also the performances on this season are way better. Schwimmer, Gooding and especially Travolta were actively bad. Ormi posted:
You're related to Andrew Cunanan but this is only your third post in this thread?!
