Sierra McCormick also looks like a model - or at least a CW darling - and no overalls or bob can sell her as the weird girl.
Scarlett is another pretty white cis gay but because Ryan Murphy is trapped in the amber of a Prop 8 protest, her life is one of turmoil. Their daughter Scarlett is technically the protagonist of this lesbian love story even if Troy and Michael are the only characters with any development, humor, or specificity. And just like Murphy and Falchuk have parented several monsters, Trichael are raising one of their own. The year is 2021 and cis white gay men who look like former models should get to do whatever their hearts desire gosh darn it! Watching Matt Bomer and a long-haired Gavin Creel commiserate and bicker, I felt like show creators Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk were revealing how they see themselves. They want to run ghost tours out of the famous Murder House just like our queer ancestors always imagined. Michael and Troy are a gay couple with a dream. Just a bunch of a pretty white gays tap dancing their way through racist brutality. But more broadly, this initial two-parter is every tendency I loathe about the powerful television creator I’ve been known to defend. Literally, this first episode revisits the origin show’s titular Murder House and some of its murderers. The first two hours of American Horror Stories are a Ryan Murphy Weakest Hits.
