There comes a point in each season of American Horror Story where the story transcends its stern idiosyncrasy and is accepted into the grander Murphy-Falchuk universe. When the Bough Breaks seems to be that very rite of passage, hinting at the rousing possibility that Delicate isn’t as disconnected as we thought. Since convalescence after an emotionally and physically draining experience isn’t a concept that fits into the cruel frame of any American Horror Story narrative, Anna’s got no respite from the brutal all-around agony she’s been going through. Let’s see what trouble the grieving actress has gotten into this week.

It’s an awful day for Anna. And her pseudo-supportive husband’s wildly tone-deaf suggestion about bringing the cops into the mix once again just isn’t cutting it. Anna’s right, though. If they were dismissive enough...

American Horror Story: Delicate has been off to a strong start with its unique season. After an encouraging pair of introductory episodes, “When the Bough Breaks” proves to be the season’s slowest, most atmospheric, and least substantial entry. American Horror Story at least understands that Jennifer Lynch is the right person to get behind the camera for an episode that’s sparse in dialogue, but dense in cryptic sequences where characters explore caverns and haunted spaces that shouldn’t exist. If nothing else, this energy really keeps the audience on their toes over what’s actually happening and what might just be some figment of Anna’s feverish fugue state. The viewer is just as foggy and disassociated as Anna. Just like how Anna’s face blemish/likely-spider-nest continues to grow, American Horror Story: Delicate further develops its story. Anna’s worsening facial imperfection reflects the slow burn surface...

From the looks of how Rockabye’s promise of a sweet dream strings Anna along to desert her in the middle of a nightmare, Halley Feiffer isn’t playing around. And neither is the 12th season of American Horror Story, as our haunted, paranoid actress’ conditions are evidently growing more and more delicate. Callously multiplying the stakes that waged a war against Anna’s emotional and physical well-being in Multiply Thy Pain, the second episode hoists her up only to drop her on the cold, hard ground of unfathomable terror. How’s our Gotham Award winner handling her increasingly wicked personal and professional life? Let’s find out.

Congratulations Are In Order
Just when you thought that a signature dismissive husband whose wife is being haunted by something very obviously sinister couldn’t have any redeemable qualities, Dex gives you a pleasant surprise. You’re right, Dex! Anna isn’t making it up.

‘AHS: Delicate’ tells a terrifying tale of doubt and distortions as Anna’s IVF treatment takes several turns for the worse.
“Would I ever do anything to hurt you?”
American Horror Story, as a postmodern horror anthology show, is reflexive and self-aware by design. It’s all about holding a mirror up to not only society, but also the horror staples that audiences have taken for granted. American Horror Story has always had a lot to say on the public versus the private and the compelling dissonance between the two. AHS: Delicate, which is explicitly set in the artificial world of the film and entertainment industry, is especially interested in this territory as an actress struggles to prepare for her biggest role yet–being a mother. “Rockabye,” which successfully evolves the season premiere’s themes, digs even deeper into how identities can blur together as the public erases the private.

Let’s just say Chester’s admission of love to guidance counselor Sam did not go well. Despite how truly heartbreaking it was when our typically animated lead discovered his feelings were unrequited, let’s face it: it was a truth the boy had to learn sooner rather than later.
In the first moments of Generation‘s Part 1 closer (now streaming on HBO Max), Chester, in as plain of clothes as we’ve ever seen him, looks completely demure and destroyed. He runs into Sam at school, who tells him he’s been assigned a new guidance counselor because Sam...

“Please, please buy the noisiest toy for my child,” said no parent ever — unless, of course, that musically-inclined tot is destined to be the next Aretha Franklin, Jimi Hendrix, Mozart or anyone in between. Some of the best music gifts for kids don’t have to come in the form of bright plastic instruments or (worse) a singing baby shark toy with no off button. Whether you’re shopping for pint-sized producers or elementary-aged audiophiles, there are plenty of cool toys for the youngest music lovers in your life.
