The Shards

Yeah.

But, I mean, I'm loving the shards.

I'm not talking about-

Yeah, I love it, too.

Like, it's super funny.

So I, I, I write it with a sense of humor.

Just like the shards.

Like-

The guitarist and music director of the band say they significantly expanded lower priced tickets for each stop on this tour, as, quote, "It shouldn't be a mortgage payment for a family to come out to see us." Fan club pre-sale begins tomorrow and Friday, with general sales beginning at, uh, 10:00 AM on September 18th.

It is time to grab your can of Aquanet and dig out your Jordache jeans because tonight is the season finale of The Shards on FX.

It is the twisted, exhilarating 1980s serial killer thriller and brainchild of Ryan Murphy of Glee and American Horror Story fame.

Uh, reporter Alicia Vitarelli chatted with the cast about the edge-of-your-seat explosive wrap-up to season one.

[tense music] Being a teenager in 1981 was perhaps the last moment of our youth.

In The Shards, FX and Ryan Murphy bring Brett Easton Ellis' best-selling novel to the screen as elite prep school seniors find themselves in danger.

I had no idea that my friends and I would be hunted by perhaps the most insane serial killer ever.

Tell me about this story.

All right, coming up, a look ahead to a blast from the past.

A preview of the season finale of the 80s-inspired TV series, The Shards.

Here's what's coming up tonight on ABC7 News at 7.

Jeopardy! followed by Wheel of Fortune.

That's followed by ABC7 Eyewitness News at 11.

All

right, tonight, a scandalous first season of The Shards wrapping up on FX.

It's a twisted 1980s serial killer thriller, and it's the brainchild of Ryan Murphy, the creator of Glee and American Horror Story.

Zero answers, disjointed storylines, and now every single character crammed into a room at the end of episode 9 of The Shards called Stairway to Heaven, which could be the season 1 finale or the series finale, depending on if it gets renewed.

I do think this is one of the most polarizing series of the year.

And honestly, for the show to play the Go-Go's Our Lips Are Sealed at the end of this episode felt like a huge slap in the face.

And we still have no idea if Brett or Robert are even involved in some of these crimes.

Welcome back to Media Melanie TV, where I cover shows worth talking about.

And yes, major spoilers ahead for The Shards, Episode 9, Stairway to Heaven.

Today, we're going to break down this somewhat anticlimactic episode.

I'm going to go over my initial reactions, a very quick recap, go character by character.

sure

and um i like i don't really care for american psycho at all but i love his writing and uh several of his books i i like quite a bit and i don't like the movies made out of those books But there is a new series on, I'm watching it on Hulu, so it's probably on FX or something like that, and it is called The Shards.

And it is based on his latest novel, which I listened to him narrate while he was writing it on his podcast.

So he released it as a weekly audio book on his own podcast.

Shazam.

I've got to get this on my playlist.

So it's called The Shards.

If you don't want a bunch of gay sex in your horror, you're probably going to want to pass on this.

Ooh.

Exclusive sneak peek at tonight's final episode of The Shards.

Fans are waiting to see how it ends.

Starred season finale airs tonight at 9:00 Eastern on FX, Hulu, and Hulu on Disney Plus.

But also Riley Green's going to be on with Jimmy Fallon.

And then on Jimmy Kimmel, who just came back last night, he's got Mariska Hargitay and Kaya Gerber, who's in that show The Shards.

Yeah, I still haven't watched it.

I've heard great things about that, too.
