'American Horror Story: Roanoke' is not the typical horror show or even typical 'American Horror Story.' AHS is known for bringing in viewers with its over-the-top and often hilarious moments that are typically followed by a jump scare that makes you wonder how you were ever laughing in the first place. But 'Roanoke' was a little different, tone-wise.The season was downright creepy. While there were a few moments of comic relief, 'Roanoke' had more than a few scenes that made your skin crawl or made you want to look away from the screen.Unlike the typical 'AHS' episodes where there is some sort of paranormal situation happening to draw in the main characters and viewers, the season primarily focused on Matt, Shelby, and Lee's relationship drama while they filmed their reality show. There are some pretty intense moments when Shelby and Lee try to escape their house as it burns down around them and their ghosts try to chase them out of the property.

In Season 9, Episode 12 of Criminal Minds, Garcia and Hotch are in the middle of a tense phone call with an unsub threatening to kill people. Garcia tells him that she can trace the call and come from inside the building. 'You're not tracing this call,' he says.The unsub then asks her where she came from; Garcia says she was adopted. He then asks her if she knows who her birth parents are, to which she replies no. He then gives her a clue — what does she see when she looks in the mirror? She looks directly into the camera as she says, 'A single mother.'I'm sure it's just meant to be a momentary distraction for Garcia, but viewers were quick to notice that there was one major problem with this scene: The show never actually addressed where Penelope came from before then.As far as we know, Garcia is entirely unrelated to the BAU — aside from occasionally flirting with Morgan and joking around with Reid, there is no reason why she would be on the show at all. However, viewers can't help but wonder how they could have possibly developed such an integral character without ever giving us some insight into her past.The weird connection between Garcia and MorganGarcia and Morgan have been teased as a possible yet unlikely romantic pairing, but this Reddit thread brings up another possibility: maybe Garcia isn't who we think she is. She may have just been an agent that Morgan recruited to join the team, but they might have had a past before that.One Reddit user makes a pretty good point — Derek Morgan can't remember who Penelope Garcia is during one of the flashbacks from earlier in Season 9.

Telling Shakespeare’s classic story is no easy feat; it’s been done many times before. But director Joel Coen has a long history with Shakespeare adaptations: he also directed O Brother, Where Art Thou? and No Country for Old Men—both of which were adapted from the works of William Shakespeare. His latest adaptation is no less visually stunning than his previous work, so fans of his work will be happy to tune in to watch The Tragedy of Macbeth on Apple TV+.What is the thriller about?Fans of Shakespeare will also be thrilled to know that the two-time Academy Award-winner has been added to the Apple TV+ lineup as well. The film, based on William Shakespeare’s classic play of the same name, stars Denzel Washington as the Scottish nobleman Macbeth and Frances McDormand as Lady Macbeth.The play centers on a power-hungry husband and wife duo who let ambition corrupt them, causing their downfall. The story is one of Shakespeare’s best-known, so it would do well to brush up on the Sparknotes version before you watch (although we wouldn’t blame you for just diving right in).In addition to Washington and McDormand, the film also stars Antony Sher as Banquo and Justin Kirk as Donalbain. It was also co-directed by Ethan Coen—who is responsible for films such as Fargo and No Country For Old Men—and received universal acclaim from critics when it was released in 2000.
