2. Yeah yeah, it's been on the air a while now. We just watched the pilot. Thank you, DirecTV DVR.
3. If we didn't know the two showrunners also created the narrative-train-wreck that is "Glee," we would never have believed it.
4. Only in movies and TV shows do people have no problem buying a creepy house in which someone was killed. How often do you think that happens in the real world?
5. Connie Britton. So amazing. But we feel like she's cheating on Kyle Chandler when we see her with a new TV husband.
6. The credit sequence gave us goosebumps. And not in a good way. Few things more unsettling than old turn-of-the-century black-and-white photos where the people just sort of stare dead-eyed into the camera. We almost stopped watching.
7. Dylan McDermott's character is a complete jerk, but he's Dylan McDermott so you still kind of like him.
8. "You're going to die in there."
9. Pilots are supposed to clearly sketch out the main characters and provide a clear indication of future subplots and storylines. No lack of possibilities here. A brilliant, efficient introduction into a fairly complicated situation.
10. Genius: wife sees housekeeper as dowdy and wrinkled, husband sees housekeeper as young and sexy. Shades of The Shining.
11. The producers sure do like to take advantage of FX's willingness to let a certain s-word fly free. A little much, if you ask us.
12. Jessica Lange seems to be enjoying herself.
13. Great stuff. We may even like it better than our favorite other new show, "Person of Interest."
