Over dozens of seasons of television, from Nip/Tuck to Glee to American Stories both Horror and Crime, super-producer Ryan Murphy has created his own cottage industry of ambitious, theatrical, cards-on-the-table melodramas featuring some of the best actors and actresses in TV. This week on the pod, Allison and Clint go it alone to count down fifteen of Murphy's greatest collaborators, from established character actresses to lantern-jawed hunks, to Oscar winners of all persuasions.
