I think most people are, they just tried to hide it like I did. But when you fall in love you realize how lonely you’ve really been,” he says. “I feel like I was blind before I saw you. Like, I never loved anyone before I knew you.” The clip ends with the phrase, “he could happen to you” shown on the screen.

Funny enough, it just might. With news that Connie Britton and Dylan McDermott will return for the Murder House/Coven crossover season, officially subtitled Apocalypse, series co-creator Ryan Murphy shared the first photo of Mr. and Mrs. Ben and Vivien Harmon back in their “forever” house. ahs Credit: Prashant Gupta / FX Perhaps they’ve quelled their rocky marriage in death. The two characters have been absent in AHS after their starring roles in season 1, probably due to the fact that their dwelling has a pretty strict supernatural ruleset: what happens in Murder House, stays in Murder House… except on Halloween. So when the Harmons died in Murder House, that’s where their ghosts remained. Their daughter, Violet Harmon, will also be back for AHS: Apocalypse by way of Taissa Farmiga. We’ll see how the actress swings playing both her Murder House and Coven characters. There’s another member of the Harmon family that will likely ruffle some feathers and that’s Michael Langdon. Cody Fern from Murphy and Brad Falchuk’s American Crime Story will star as a grown-up version of the illegitimate demon child. Vivien gave birth to Michael after she was raped by ghost Tate (Evan Peters) and the child was last spotted in the care of neighbor Constance. And, yes, Jessica Lange will have a part to play in all of this. The Coven spell-casters are back, as well, while Sarah Paulson pulls triple duty as Supreme witch Cordelia Goode, medium Billie Dean Howard, and a new character named Venable, who’s seemingly spotted in one of FX’s Apocalypse teasers. The count down to the end of the world has already begun. Tune in on FX this Sep. 12 to see how AHS: Apocalypse goes down.<doc-sep>

When we heard that Connie Britton and Eric Bana would be starring opposite each other in Bravo's upcoming series Dirty John, we couldn't wait to see two of our favorite actors finally together onscreen. And now the wait to see their chemistry is finally over. Britton and Bana came together to present the award for Variety Talk Series during the 70th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards Monday night. Britton looked stunning in her green floral gown, while Bana looked incredibly dapper in his navy blue tux. Earlier in the night during NBC's red carpet coverage, Britton and Bana, who was attending his first Emmy Awards ceremony ever, were looking forward to the show's after parties. "We've got a late start tomorrow. It's dangerous," Bana told Natalie Morales. But perhaps Britton and Bana won't actually be partying quite that hard. "We work pretty hard, so for us to have a fun night out is... I don't know. We'll probably fall asleep," Britton joked. Dirty John is the true story of a woman named Debra Newell (Britton), who falls in love with the charismatic John Meehan (Bana). However, this whirlwind romance soon turns into a dark tale of deceit, manipulation, and survival for Debra and her whole family. Debra and John may look so love in these first-look photos, but the above sneak peek of the series shows that Dirty John is going to be anything but a fairytale. In addition to starring in Dirty John, Britton and Bana also serve as executive producers on the series. "Yeah, it's just nice to be involved from the ground up and so too is Connie. And so we feel like good partners on this project," Bana told The Daily Dish in May. "I really love her work and [I'm] really excited to get a chance to work with her finally." The cast of Dirty John also includes Jean Smart as Debra's mother Arlane Hart, Julia Garner and Juno Temple as Debra's daughters Terra and Veronica, respectively, Kevin Zegers as Debra's nephew Toby, Keiko Agena as Debra's co-worker Nancy, John Karna as Terra's boyfriend Jimmy, Sprague Grayden as John's first wife Tonia, and Cliff Chamberlain as John's best man from his first marriage Ethan. Dirty John is set to premiere on Bravo later this year. See more of Britton, below.
