      MIND-BLOWN 🤯

      The Vision of The Apocalypse

      Cordelia has a vision of the end of the world. She tells Madison, Queenie and the warlocks about her vision and agrees that Michael Langdon be submitted to the Seven Wonders test. When she returns to her coven, Myrtle Snows confronts Cordelia with her decision. Meanwhile, John Henry Moore decides to drive to New Orleans to meet Cordelia and tells her his feelings about Langdon. However, Mead kills him in a gas station. Soon Langdon is submitted to the Seven Wonders test and succeeds. Before the last test, Descensum, Cordelia challenges Langdon to bring Misty Day back and he does. Cordelia confirms that he is the next Supreme. Misty tells Cordelia that she should have been left in Hell since Langdon is evil. Cordelia says that he will not be the next Supreme and she has only tested how powerful he is. Then she asks Madison to go to the Murder House to learn more about Langdon. Chablis overhears the conversation and asks to go with Madison.

      "Boy Wonder" is an episode of the "American Horror Story" where Cordelia exposes her vision of the Apocalypse to the other witches and warlocks. She suspects that Michael Langdon is evil and confirms at the end of the episode. The show has a musical with Steve Nicks that has nothing to do with the show. My vote is eight.

      Leslie Grossman is great, but Stevie Nicks is CRINGE

      Resembling a young Bette Midler but funnier than she ever was, the character Coco St. Pierre Vanderbilt is hilarious, and was the best thing in the first part of this season. There was a sad point where it seemed... well without saying any more she's really great, and makes the show. Both a comic relief and an interesting character who goes against the grain on all levels. Including her humor. That's it. End. She rules...

      Unlike Stevie Nicks, who is not even beautiful anymore so why have her trying to be a sexy witch, and what is this, VH1 or AHS? She's so horribly cringe on the series. It takes you right out of the story-line. A multi-millionaire celebrity singing free songs to a school of witches, ha. No one that famous does anything without millions...

      Players only love you when you're PAYING!!!!!
