| Grotesquerie |
Doesn't seem to matter what I do! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, October 23!
Our Top Pick tonight is Grotesquerie (FX, 10 & 11 p.m. / Hulu, Thursday). This Ryan Murphy-produced horror drama finds Det. Lois Tryon (Niecy Nash-Betts) teaming up with Sister Megan (Micaela Diamond) to solve some seriously heinous murders that deal with the unhuman and cult. I kinda liked the first couple episodes but I haven't continued. The fifth episode is notable for being a one-take episode.
Elsewhere, Med gets in the Halloween spirit, Theodosia returns, Nature hangs with gorillas, the Loud House goes trick or treating, Nova gets cold, the Elementary considers pets, Netflix revisits the Zodiac killer, a new Ink Master must be found, Love can see, the Civil War has Secrets, and Chris continues to be Hated.
