Mae Greenleaf should get the Velma Mulholland treatment


If no one remembers Velma Mulholland from In Living Color, Google her. She's a character who was in black-and-white while everyone else was in color because she lived in an old movie.

That's what they should do with Mae because she's a straight-up psychopath out of a Gothic horror film. She should just be floating through the show in greyscale, standing at the top of staircases, casting film-noir shadows wherever she goes. Next time you watch her carrying on, just imagine her in What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? or as Margaret White in Carrie.

Heretico, why do you characterize Mae as a psycho?? She played her brother by making him believe she believed in him so he wouldn't run. Lynn Whitfield deserves an Emmy Award for this role she's playing.
