Patient G2573. Review: American Horror Story: Asylum, S2 Ep 10 – “The Name Game”
Her duty as Grace’s (Lizzie Brocheré) protector feels a little out of place. I mean, why Pepper and not one of the other patients? We do learn why she ended up at Briarcliff but a deeper exploration of her background would’ve fleshed out her character more. I suspect, though, the writers have placed more import on the main characters now that American Horror Story: Asylum is drawing to a close.

It’s a Sopranos/O.K. Corral Mashup! Review: It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia – “The Gang Dines Out”
While Mac (Rob McElhenney) and Dennis (Glenn Howerton) are having their “monthly dinner” at Guigino’s, one of Philadelphia’s finer eating establishments, Charlie (Charlie Day) and Frank (Danny DeVito) walk in to celebrate their one-year anniversary of living together. What none of them realizes is Dee (Kaitlin Olson) is at a table of her own. What ensues as the four men try to outdo each other has me chuckling deep down to my very core.

What’s Dead Is Then Alive. Retrospective: American Horror Story: Asylum, S2 Ep 9 – “The Coat Hanger”
Sister Jude might be in shackles now, stripped of her clerical standing, but she’s allowed some room to roam the asylum. I’m counting the days until Sister Jude uses her wits to turn the place upside down. Just because she’s out of her nun’s habit doesn’t mean her power as a woman has diminished any.

A Video Game Takes Over at Paddy’s. Retrospective: It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia – “Charlie Rules the World”
Focusing on a topic that isn’t as laugh out loud funny as those in recent Sunny episodes, the show tackles online gaming, and how easy it is to succumb to the virtual world. That’s not to say “Charlie Rules the World” doesn’t have its moments, because it does. While Mac (Rob McElhenney), Frank (Danny DeVito), Dee (Kaitlin Olson), and Charlie (Charlie Day) are immersed in the game, “Techpocalypse,” Dennis tries to keep a foothold in real life.

Death At Your Door. Retrospective: American Horror Story: Asylum, S2 Ep 8 – “Unholy Night”
There’s no way, in the hell that’s Briarcliff, there can’t be a dark side to this otherwise cheerful (for most) holiday. Santa, whose real name is Leigh Emerson (Ian McShane), turned evil during his first stint in jail for a petty crime. Can’t say I blame him with what he endured, but he’s gone to the extreme.
