  • Ep.02: Taboo FX - 101 - Episode 1
    Jan 10 2017

    "Taboo" exploded onto our screens with murder, nightmare, necromancy, prostitution and testicular threats. We knew Tom Hardy would be a beastly, brooding, mysterious James Keziah Delaney, but we didn't know "Taboo" would be something rare on FX: a murder mystery.

    Join the Shat on TV crew as we introduce the characters, dive deeper into James' identity, review the history of the East India Company (seriously, Gene went a bit too far in this) and relish the visual richness of this gorgeously grimy debut.

  • Ep.05: Taboo FX - 103 - Episode 3
    Jan 25 2017

    Taboo just threw us all for a loop. Just when we thought we had it figured out, James Keziah Delaney's mother bursts into the narrative, then more hallucinations, then he makes out with his sister, Zilpha.

    Wanna talk about the fireplace scene, Lorna Bow's abduction or whether menstruation is a proper dinnertime topic? So do we!

    Warning: Some of the content in this episode is grosser than crabs crawling out of dude's belly, more horrifying than the Prince Regent's complexion, and more vulgar than Thorne's stupid face.

    Welcome to the Molly House, loyal Taboo fans, let's get nasty.

  • Ep.06: Taboo FX - 103 - River Rants
    Jan 27 2017

    After last week's debut episode of River Rants, the floodgates opened and a heavy flow of "Taboo" viewer mail overflowed our inbox. Scotland Yard was not yet around in 1814, but that didn't stop #ShatNation from trying to solve the puzzle that is Tom Hardy's hit series. 

    Our listeners share their detailed timelines of James Delaney Walker's whereabouts, make connections between the mysterious Carlsbad & Lorna Bow, analogize the literary works of Arthur Macken, H.P. Lovecraft, & F.Scott Fitzgerald, and ask the question: Is Zilpha inspired by the Old Testament's story of Zilpah?

  • Ep.07: Taboo FX - 104 - Episode 4
    Feb 2 2017

    "Taboo" Episode 4 brought us remote rape, a pig costume, fecal feasting, a disemboweled giant, a psychic horse and a fellatio heist. And then it got weird.

    Let's review the Crown's plot against Lorna Bow, James' plan to make gunpowder, Countess Musgrove's ball, Carlsbad's identity, Thorne's duel challenge and why any man would want to ship barrels of whore piss.

    Sounds like a job for Shat On TV! Join our merry League of the Damned, and let the nitrous flow!

  • Ep.08: Taboo FX - 104 - River Rants
    Feb 3 2017

    In this week's River Rants, "Taboo" fans theorize on James Keziah Delaney's secret motives, teach us about what submissives like from their dominants, and speculate on what happened to Anna Delaney.

    "Taboo" viewers also wrote about the blood bond between Horace, Zilpha, Anna and James Delaney. And they dug deep into who is helping the Americans in their attempts to capture the right to Nootka Sound.

    Hear what your fellow Tabooians are saying about the show, then share your thoughts by writing to hosts@shatontv.com!
