Who else is going to guest star on this show and what else are they going to do? And I am the only who did not love the season premiere?

The FX series regularly depicts bizarre, unbelievable cosmetic surgery scenarios: a woman so obese she was confined to her couch and literally became adhered to it; another whose dead unborn child remained in her womb for decades, as petrified as a prehistoric fossil.
Amazingly, each scenario is taken from the pages of life. "When you read a news clipping about a woman who has not left the sofa for three years and has grown into the sofa, you cannot quite believe it," said Murphy. "But you know, I find all of those things sort of ripe with intrigue, and I’m very interested in the morality of all those stories." And so it goes.
As the network’s No. 1 show heads into its fourth season the surgical exploits become very perverse and very personal. Katleen Turner, she of the infamous throaty drawl, plays a phone sex worker who needs a voice-lift. "That’s something that I’ve wanted to write for three years, a voice-lift, because I thought it was so odd," said Murphy. "And as soon as you say voice-lift, you think of Kathleen Turner – at least I do. Who has the world’s deepest voice? Other guest stars this season include Brooke Shields in a multi-episode arc as Christian’s (Julian McMahon) randy shrink, Rosie O’Donnell and Catherine Deneuve. O’Donnell, who has decried societal beauty standards and famously condemned fired "View" co-host Star Jones Reynolds for denying that her dramatic weight loss resulted from gastric bypass surgery, plays a "white trash princess from Pensacola, Fla., who wins $400 million in a Powerball lottery and brings in her whole family for extensive plastic," according to Murphy.And Deneuve will play a woman who asks Drs. Troy and McNamara to adjust her breast implants; she wants her husband’s ashes to be put into them – "so she can always be close to" him, explained Murphy. And, yes, that’s happened. "I mean," added Murphy, "it’s insane. But that is actually a true story."
