    Eh...okay premiere. John Carroll Lynch as that clown was amazing, though.

    Decent, we'll see where this storyline goes. Agreed about the clown, perfect.

    Season 1 - Great.

    Seasons 2-3 = the suck, never finished either.

    Season 4 - Turned it off after 30 minutes. Just dreadful.

    I personally love the whole campy vibe.

    As a connoisseur of cinema and all things pop culture, this type of camp can only be created in the mind of a homosexual man. Nothing wrong with that. But you gotta love the nods to David Bowie, Marlene Dietrich & George Cuckor melodrama's.

    I think it's pretty universal that everyone loved season 1. It was a good story and a different genre from normal TV.

    I hated season 2, stuck with it through the whole thing. Gave season 3 a chance but it didn't grip me like season 1 did. Guess that was hit-or-miss, too.

    Looks like I'm waiting for this season to end until I give it a chance.

    Never seen this before but always heard it about it. Cute chick I know wanted me to check out so she talk about it with me. It was alright, I'll probably stick with it. I kinda wish I didn't watch that season preview thing that aired right after, felt like it ruined a bit of the story. I can predict where some of it will go.

    Kathy Bates was kind of revolting with a beard.

    The episode was alright. Don't know if I'm totally sold on the two headed girls being interesting enough as the main characters. I do always like the characters that "Tate" plays.

    The clown is cool though.

    This show managed to lose my interest in the opener, watched new episodes of South Park & Key & Peele instead.

    I think about the point they did the cover of Fiona Apple.....

    Relying too much on the makeup and effects
    and not enough on the story

    The Fiona Apple thing kind of kicked me out of the moment so to speak
    my suspension of belief was tweaked for a moment

    I am trying to see where their stories are going

    Sex and violence Sells .. . . but sometimes you still need some story

    Same effect with the cover for me, just totally took me out of the show. Would like to see where all this going.

    The storyline with the Siamese twins makes me think of this...

    I know that you don't have to watch previous seasons to fall in and pick up on this show, but I just finished watching season one and the first episode of season two. The insane asylum bit looks like it may have a little potential, but I'm not totally convinced and I thought that the first episode of season two was kinda boring.

    I'm more concerned about whether Kate Mara came back after the first season. Not sure what it is, but I've had a thing for her every since House of Cards.

    Season 3 was my first season. I'm enjoying season 4 so far, and am going to watch season one and two on netflix. I recently read that the rumor that all AHS are intertwined has been confirmed. I now NEED to catch up on season one and two.
