Just finished episode 5, i'm surprised I'm enjoying it so much since I don't normally like sleepaway camp slashers. Good redemption after Apocalypse.

Nah it was the previous season. Macaulay Culkin is in the newest one, so I was curious to see his role but wanted to get up on the series before I start it.

And Billy Idol isn't in here, at least hasn't been in here yet, but they've played half his discography so far.

It can be hard if you don't enjoy the format, because all the seasons follow the same format for the most part - there are characters, they do some things, you're wondering who they are, then there are some clips that give you more context and information about who they are. And I'm realizing at Episode 6 of this season that it's not really building up to anything. This makes for a really hit or miss experience - if you don't like the theme of the season then you're kinda SOL.

I do love the premise of the show, incorporating urban legends and real, brutal American history to weave these intricate tales. And I have fun exploring all the twists and turns that they throw at you.

Definitely a show where you can skip seasons if you find after a couple of episodes that you don't like what's going on though. And Apocalypse really turned me off to the whole thing (that's why we skipped a season) - it had the most terrifying opening half hour of a television show or movie I have ever witnessed in my life... and then the remainder of the season was outright awkward trash.

Also think Billie Lourd might be the first celebrity crush I've had in a long time >_>

I think I find the storytelling format to be way too formulaic and in your face. The dialogue is really over the top and I'm often questioning that a person would say that in real life. And AHS is awful about their endings. It's like they come to a logical conclusion and then there's still 1 or 2 more episodes of just filler epilogue that doesn't make any sense

Ill save you the disappointment and tell you to skip the Double Feature Season. Its the first season I decided was so bad I couldnt finish. If you already watched the Cult season Im sorry about that one too.

Cult was my favorite season hands down.

I was watching the reviews for every episode on Amazon when they aired and everyone was getting passed off, I loved it. You could tell people were missing all sorts of points.

Damn then this is the show for you! I couldnt stand the over dramatic acting from Paulson and the bad writing for each character. You should check out the side series on Hulu too then.

Cult and Roanoke were definitely the weakest. The newest double feature was pretty bad too. All the other seasons had something to like tho.

Yeah I watched the anthology series, it was fun. I kinda hoped they would roll with a theme from each season like in the opening episodes.

Roanoke was bad, yeah. If I were in charge, I would have set it up so the first half of the season were filmed with brand new actors with no credits to their name as the real people and set up the recurring cast to do the dramatization. Air that first half of the season in Springtime as a special to give it an appearance of being a real story. Then roll into the second half in autumn.

The fact they used the regular actors for everything really ruined the effect of an unsolved mysteries retelling.

She's a babe, and a really underrated actress. Always sells her part in these stupid shows.
