Man Crush Monday: Evan Peters

Since its Halloween week, I thought I would talk about the person all AHS fans are weirdly attracted to this MCM... EVAN PETERS!

1) He can play the good guy and the bad guy- One of the reasons I think its weird to be so attracted to him is that he can be both good and bad. In season 1 of AHS he was the bad guy that everyone kind of fell in love with because he was so good to Violet. But ultimately he was a very bad guy that did something very very bad (I don't really want to give spoilers... but if you haven't seen season 1 at least you probably have no interest in the series.) But then in season 2 he was really a good guy in a bad place. He was open minded and the aliens chose him for that reason. And in season 3 and from what it seems in season 4... hes not good or bad. He can really do good things.

2) I've never loved his storylines, but I think he does a great job- I like his characters... but I feel like he has very odd storylines that don't quite fit in with the rest of the season. I mean I liked him in Season 1... but a bunch of annoying girls on tumblr thought he was hot and wanted his character to be their boyfriends... and its like really? He killed people at his high school and he raped Connie Britton's character and they had a demon baby that killed an innocent maid... you really want him to be your boyfriend. As a character I really liked Kip, but the aliens thing was out of left field. I think that he did a great job and stuff... but aliens did not belong in the world of Asylum... which was weird. I thought he did a good job as Kyle on Coven... but his character didn't have much of an arc... well I guess he sort of did. I mean he was a regular guy, then he died and came back and then he was a monster but then he healed and was normalish... I guess that is a bit of an arc... but still I always want more of him cause he is actually a great actor.

I do like his character this season though! He's like the leader of the Freaks and I like Dot's crush on him.

3) He will make you attracted to some pretty unattractive characters- There is something about him. It's like impossible to not fall in love with his characters, even if they are completely unlikable. It goes back to #1. In the first season he was a pretty bad guy, there is no denying that... but there is still something about him that is just... he's hot. That is probably it, and I am trying to say it is so much more than that... but it boils down to he is damn hot. Also talented, but lets get back to the hot thing. He is hot.


4) I have a lot of respect for regulars of AHS in general- It must not be the easiest job in the world to be a regular in a mini series that does one season every year. Every season all the characters are a little different and have different ways of interacting with other actors. Evan has been in all four seasons. His interactions with other AHS regulars is different each year too. One year he's Jessica Lange's son, next he's hating her because she traps him in an asylum. One year he is just a friend of Sarah Paulson a few seasons later he's her love interest. Its just an interesting thing to see. It's cool to watch all these actors playing such different characters and I think since he has been in all four seasons, it particularly shows.

5) The Hot Thing Again- I'm sorry. It's my "Ryan Gosling is so talented" thing all over again. He's hot and that may blind me to whether or not he is actually talented, but from every season of AHS he is actually talented. It takes a lot to make these characters likable and relatable... but he did just that and it was amazing.

Byeee!

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...

Throwback Thursday: Crazy Ex Girlfriend Season 1

One of my favorite shows is the very underrated Crazy Ex Girlfriend... and when I say underrated I mean the ratings are bad... I'm pretty sure there is a lot of critical hype that is very real and worthy of that sort of hype... I honestly didn't watch it live at all this year until the finale... it was all in my DVR... I had lost a little bit of interest to be honest after the first episode... but I bingewatched it all in one day pretty much and it was great... but that's season 2... let's go back to Season 1. If you're only familiar with Season 2... Season 1 isn't quite as dark. It's definitely more silly than Season 2. It isn't like the darkness and the drama isn't there, it just isn't quite as dark. I have a feeling the show is getting progressively darker, and the Season 2 finale was definitely the darkest so far. The show is meant to be a different spin on a Rom-Com. The girl moves across the country for a guy that has a girlfriend alrea...
