They are all pretty much standalone seasons, although on occasion they'll have links to previous seasons. Not enough to make a difference in what you would see as a first time viewer.This looks interesting in the ads. Have never watched an ep of AHS - is there anything i need to know going in?
All but the first season has had this issue... Grabs you at first, then completely the viewer by making changes that never should have happened...I've watched every season and am prepared for a great concept and really good first half that falls apart midway through the season and struggles to finish adequately.
Spot on...although you forgot to mention how at least one character will get more and more fantastically gay as the season progressesI've watched every season and am prepared for a great concept and really good first half that falls apart midway through the season and struggles to finish adequately.
i went on youtube a few weeks ago and looked at all the ads. This season looks pretty awesome if what we see in the ads plays out during the season. I saw a trailer for the 1st episode, and it may just start kind of slow. At least feels that way cause the ads look awesome and interesting as hell, and not sure we won't jump into them until a few weeks.This looks interesting in the ads.

EP:1 was good enough to hold my interest, so i'm in for another few.
minor complaint:
Ally's anxiety/neurosis with regard to seeing clowns seems to be brought on by any reference to Trump. MAGA hat on the cashier in the store? clowns boning in the produce aisle. looking at Trumps' twitter feed at dinner? clown self-pleasuring in the kitchen. seems a bit heavy-handed considering all the material the producers have to work with.
also, did i understand correctly: Ally voted for Jill Stein and Ivy's bent out of shape at that?
well, I think we can handle the thread with the Trump/Hillary stuff cause there is a whole other forum for the political headaches.Good first episode I would say.
I just hope people don't ruin this thread with Trump/Hilary talk.
However, it already has the feel of another season that will start out really good then it the top of the hill and come barreling down.
Side question.......was Hotel worth watching? I got through like 4-5 episodes.
I will try to be vague because can't put spoiler tag in now (though it is a harmless spoiler if you saw the episode). but I think what ever her diagnose is, was definitely existent from before like she said during 9/11 and everything. I was thinking of a paranoid schizophrenia kind of diagnosis, but definitely little early to draw too many conclusions. I think this show in particular is good at not being too predictableQuint said:EP:1 was good enough to hold my interest, so i'm in for another few.

It has started just fine. It has the feel where it could go off the rails pretty easily.How was it? First season was awesome but everything since has been pretty bad. Don't think I've watched the last couple seasons. But I saw a trailer for Cult and it looks different.
Severe anxiety can cause hallucinations. Anxiety from phobias could be the case here.I will try to be vague because can't put spoiler tag in now (though it is a harmless spoiler if you saw the episode). but I think what ever her diagnose is, was definitely existent from before like she said during 9/11 and everything.

The sister is in on it. Wasnt that obvious?So is the kid hallucinating too or are the clowns real? The babysitter saw the ice cream truck but not the clowns. If he is just seeing things, I guess we know who his real mother is and I'm sure we'll eventually learn who the father is.
Is it just a coincidence that Kai's sister is the babysitter or is he targeting them?
Good start to the season, I thought.
yeah, almost too obvious.The sister is in on it. Wasnt that obvious?
Ryan Murphy said this season will have no "supernatural forces" in it.Or, the show is going all supernatural dumb #### again.
Watching the premiere now. It's terribleHow was it? First season was awesome but everything since has been pretty bad. Don't think I've watched the last couple seasons. But I saw a trailer for Cult and it looks different.
It's like the guys that hang out in the Political Subforum wrote the premier. But, I'm still watching and it's not that bad, so far I'd rank it in the middle of the pack with potential upside:Watching the premiere now. It's terrible
It's good. It goes back in time to the day before the election and shows you how some of the characters developed with some surprises thrown in.I didn't see this week but I'm enjoying it so far
I'd put Cult, through 4 episodes at 2.. Asylm wasn't my "cup of tea" .. Just don't care for "torture porn"..It's like the guys that hang out in the Political Subforum wrote the premier.

1- House
2- Asylum
3- Hotel
4- Cult
5- Freak
6- Coven
7- Roanoke
I think Roanoke was so bad it drove off a lot of people, unfortunately. It's already renewed for two more seasons after this one.
Oh cool...that sounds good. Might watch tonight.It's good. It goes back in time to the day before the election and shows you how some of the characters developed with some surprises thrown in.
I love torture porn.I'd put Cult, through 4 episodes at 2.. Asylm wasn't my "cup of tea" .. Just don't care for "torture porn"..
I'd put Roanoke at 3... It did make a VERY strange turn halfway through but I still ended up watching all episides...then Asylym.. the rest are best forgotten.
Hoping Cult continues on being good... so far it is definitely my favorite after the first season
yeah i thought this week was real good. i would love entire episodes of evil clowns, which this wasn't, but this episode did a nice job of setting some things up and explained a bit about the reasoning in the show. explained some things that on first watch didn't make complete senseI didn't see this week but I'm enjoying it so far
maybe it depends on what you were expecting. the pre-season commercials were awesome and i know i would have loved a whole season of a killer clown cult. we have a smaller degree and it is a little more of a psychological attack, but there is enough action along with the plot that i'm on board. more action and violence would be great, but i don't know if this show will ever be thatNot even sure why I am still watching. I think its horrible but some in here are making me feel like I'm just not getting it.
Paulson's character is obviously gonna become part of the cult.I didnt see any pre season commercials. Sarah Paulsons character is so annoying I am kind of watching and hoping she meets with some terrible demise. Her wife is pretty annoying as well. The only character I find interesting this season is the kid with blue hair.
I was assuming the wife is part of it after her involvement with the sister. Paulsen will be freaking out eventually and her wife will pull off her clown mask.Paulson's character is obviously gonna become part of the cult.
Yes, I think so too. That's why the wife never "sees" the clowns and how they keep getting in the house.
I'm digging it.

Did you see this weeks episode? Because:Paulson's character is obviously gonna become part of the cult.

YeahDid you see this weeks episode? Because:
I really liked the 1st half... Then they decided to end the season at the midpoint and start a whole new season.. it was very strange... but the 1st half was good enough that I stuck through the 2nd half.. which was a first time since season 1 so there is that..This past episode of the flashbacks really threw a nice wrinkle into things.
Roanoke? I guess I just wasn't paying attention cause I either just totally forgot or didn't even realize that one existed. Doesnt sound like anyone liked it though.
