Tribute
Not all heroes wear capes. Some of them are behind the lens, rewriting scripts, dating Gywenyth Paltrow. But all heroes nonetheless. So this is a shoutout to the greatest duo since Hall & Oates; Sonny and Cher; Dre and Snoop: Riri and Drake: Brad Falchuck and Ryan Murphy.
These are magnanimous times as these two Saints have blessed us with Glee and then American Horror Story and now Scream Queens. Where we not all there singing along to "Don't Stop Believing" in '09? Where we not more than pleasantly surprised with Asylum's "The Name Game"? Or laughing at disbelief at a show that held a candle light vigil for a fallen frat member to the lulling rhymes of Bone-Thugs-N-Harmony's "Crossroads"? They have introduced us to the greatest characters in tv history, ones we lo pave to hate, others we hate to love, and everyone in between. We were blessed with the Virgin Mary in Sara Paulson. We have been anointed with the Holy Spirit by Evan Peters. And we have been resurrected by the omnipotent God in the talented Jessica Lange. The Holy Trinity.
And also, they found a niche for Emma Roberts. No more Teen Nick for the homegirl. No more strumming chords to Jake Bahardi. No more living Unfabulous (oh ohohoh). So that's a win in my book. And glory to Cheezus we were thrust into the Lima-Broadway world of Rachel Berry and Halle-freakin-lujah was that not the best? Shout out to Mr. Morrison and Coach Sylvester.
So this is a salute to the men that have entertained us since the start of the millennium and as long as they continue to do so, this world will be a better, darker, place with random breaking out into singing. Here's to you two!
