It's clearly AHS, and they include those letters, but they keep stylizing it as ?6 with the question mark in front. Perhaps a reference to the years it'll be set in, as in 1586 and 2016?

Gaga owned last season but I feel like her character was very much written around her - it played on her strengths as a performer and the kind of aesthetic she could rock. I don't want to sound too much like I'm doubting her, but to me she seemed like a great one-and-done big draw, and would prefer that as the show moved forward it got a different big, weird name each season. Then again it may end up being the Celebrity Showcase featuring Other Assholes and maybe a Spooky Castle

A couple years ago I thought Kathy Bates was a one season featured star. I'm glad I was wrong.

The answer to all questions about those teasers: They're just yanking our chains, deliberately. At least they're upfront about it this time.

Tired Moritz posted:time for time travel. Can we time travel season 3 out of existence? Season 4 was kinda dull as gently caress after the clown died, but it never made me go "WHAT THE FUUUUUUUUCK!?" the way Season 3 did. I don't know why it doesn't draw more notice, it was one of the most batshit and incompetent things I've ever seen on TV, and I mean it. It was hanging with the likes of Heroes and Dexter in the logic department, just better acted. That season was made entirely of pure-grain stupid.

I feel like they should've brought back James Cromwell too after his performance in season 2. My friends and I still crack up at "Show me your mossy bank."

For sure, Cromwell was great. The show just lost so much more (to me) when Rabe started to do only cameos compared to, say, Lange leaving.

Fat black girl from American Horror Story why do you let them make these awful websites... I rewatched hotel. I think its about time to rewatch some of the seasons.

They just released a new teaser that's all the signature imagery from the past five seasons edited together. Thanks, I guess. Honestly not sure when to make a new thread or what to put in it since there apparently won't be a press preview blitz this time.

They're running a contest where, if you guess which of six teasers is truly related to the season's theme, you can win a car and a trip to the set. https://www.ahs6sweeps.com/ So one of those six is essentially confirmed to be relevant. Lullaby seems like the safe answer, but they're using the Blind Date graphic on the website under the show page.

It will be the least voted trailer to intrigue people who didn't pick it, Simpsons rules.

That was a small subthread in a season with much larger threads that had nothing to do with aliens, it could probably sustain a whole season if they focused on it.

I ended up picking the wind chime one because it seems to fit in wit the usual stuff, and it's not quite as bold as some of the others. Plus, at the end of the Anthology teaser, they put the ?6 made out of bones, seemingly hinting toward that sort of thing.

If I gave a poo poo I'd vote the cottage-smoke one due to the leaked set filming pictures..

I heard a decent argument for the Wind Chimes one in that apparently a discarded subplot from the first season involved a serial killer who used hedge clippers, and I guess Ryan Murphy said he'd be returning to stuff they didn't do in the first season or something I dunno but I need a car so I entered anyway.

But they're not promoting Season 2, are they? Are they!? (Although if they decided to rebroadcast Season 2 as a surprise rather than go on with this Season 6 business, I would be down for it.)

I really liked the first two seasons, thought three was boring, and thought four started out pretty good and then just went seriously downhill halfway through. I caught the premiere of Hotel and honestly I found it so ugly that I just checked out completely and didn't watch another episode (I remember a pretty gross rape scene in particular; that things felt forced and not creepy, just edgy or what people keep calling "try-hard"). I've heard from a lot of friends that it ended up being a great season, much better than the last two, I should def give it another try, etc. I know it's not like there's any continuity and I can just jump into the new season, but now I'm more curious about watching the last. You guys think it's worth it? Did it stick to the tone set by the first episode? Where would you rate it alongside the previous four? Thanks :^)

Season five is horrifically nonsensical, offensively bad and a complete waste of time. I keep hearing people saying how great it was, but they were wrong. It was truly awful.

Opinions differ on 5. It was a big improvement on 4 and especially 3 in terms of telling a story with plausible through-lines and connective tissue. It's still got cheap shock moments and exploitation but it was never not going to be a basic cable horror show. A lot of people were simply amazed that Lady Gaga turned out to be a not-terrible actress. Thread consensus on season ratings: 2 [gap] 1 5 4 [large gap] 3

We need nonsensical charts and rankings that try to convince people that season 5 was worth a drat, but it's bad. real bad. If it were any good, it wouldn't need something like that. Watch American Crime Story season 1 instead of AHS season 5. Thank me later.
