American Horror Story: Cult has really, really lost me now.

They're doing that thing again where they abandon a cohesive story to go off on random dumb bullshit to completely change the direction of the show into something that people weren't as invested in.

I can understand in-fighting between the cultists and wanting to overthrow the leader. But doing it because they want to show off girl power? Spending an entire episode on backstory for a character who won't appear again? I just don't care about all of the women suddenly being brainwashed against the leader of the cult because of feminism! Maybe if they had an actually good reason to like any of about a dozen reasons I could come up with off the top of my head, but this is stupid.

They do this every season, I swear. It's like if you're going to get ice cream, excited to go there on the road. And then they just take a different turn and go, "I know you really like that ice cream, but I really want broccoli instead. So let's have some broccoli for dessert. Trust me. You'll love this broccoli, even though it's not what we talked about, but it's going to be great."

It's not great American Horror Story. I don't give a shit about your crappy divergence so you can tell your little story about this. You had me hooked with the last episode and then you dump me with this and I just don't care! Just because you say "I think it will be cool to tell this story." But it's not cool! It's never as cool as the idea you already had! Why can't you just keep going the same solid direction you are right now!?
