Not having ever watched Coven, is there anything I would've missed in the most current episode?

I love the James March character. When he just starts laughing was great.

James March has been my 2nd favorite Even Peters character!

He so obviously and desperately wants to do other roles: he really leans into the stuff that is out of his archetype!

Loved his character in Cult, too.

I'm watching Cult for the first time. I wish I hadn't been spoiled (AHS: Cult spoiler) that Ivy was part of the cult. Although when you do find that out so many of her actions, plus the fact that she knew Winter prior to her being their Nanny. makes so much more sense. It really is terrifying but I'm glad it's a "reality" terrifying and not super natural.

AHS has really improved with shorter seasons.

You think Alpha warlock guy is the anti Christ baby from season 1?

His name is Michael Langdon. That's exactly who he is.

Finished Cult and loving loved it! I really liked the "realness" of it. There was no supernatural bullshit, no demons, werewolves, vampires, etc. It was real and it preyed on real fears. I thought it had kind of a flat ending but really liked it overall.

You know, as a fan of AHS I never completely finished season 1 (I remember bondage suit dude) and didn't make it through season 2. Season 3 and on I've watched. I don't remember why I didn't binge through these completely on netflix back then but I may as well play catch-up now. Then I'll probably understand more references to those.

Asylum is really good, it does suffer from "too many subplots" that the longer seasons all stuffy from

Next week's episode is going to be 1:18 (roughly 55 minutes after commercials). I think I read in the same article that we are going back to bunker in 2 weeks.

How are people feeling about 4 (maybe 5 or 6) episodes of flashbacks? How badly do we want to get back to the bunker? What was even happening at the bunker when we left off?

I've seen every episode so far, there's one episode left, and I'm still not sure if this is a good season or not. Definitely the first AHS season I've felt this way about this late into it

I'm just hoping we get the loving apocalypse tonight.

I think she's going to die in the attempt, and thus the supreme does not have to die.


My bet is on:

F. Heal Michael's soul so he doesn't turn evil in the first place, or at least comes back from evil.

They've setup over and over there's good in him, and that he's been pushed towards this outcome. If they deviate his destiny, they fix everything.


Part of me still thinks the coke nerds realize what a colossal mistake everything has been, and that the actors from the forward timeline are the same characters (not that we'd expect that due to the way AHS plays with actors).

Mostly because otherwise it's odd that two characters are going to pop up in the mind wipe mess.

She probably has manual / automatic settings. I doubt they are still controlling her.

1: Good
2: Great
3: Clusterfuck
4: Boring
5: Uneven but mostly good with some greatness mixed in
6: Really good
7: Really good
8: Thus far, really loving good

Basically there was a big dip in 3-4 and 5 straddled the fence but I've liked every season since Hotel and I don't dislike Hotel.

Coven was incoherent, Freak Show was boring. Coven II is really pretty coherent and definitely not boring.

I could get on board with this list. I'm just frustrated mostly because I know only have one episode left and we have a lot of ground to cover. I'm sure they will stick the landing because thus far it's been really good.

I feel like Hotel is pretty polarizing. Some people enjoyed it, some have hated it. I also think this season has been bait and switchy to an extent but it hasn't been a "mess".

Leave in Murder House, Coven, and Hotel flashbacks, change Eichner's character to be hunting Michael and not being gung ho for the apocalypse in the first place, put in exposition that everyone invited into the sanctuary has the potential to birth more anti-christs, don't have Billie Lourd go back in time and just have her kill Michael then reset everything. Poor Michael didn't even have a chance.

Wait was Billy Eichners character that was in the shelter..the same that was in the robot lab?

Sarah Paulson will not have a major role this season, but doesn't rule out a cameo

No Peters, almost no Paulson, is this even still American Horror Story?

After being front and center for so many consecutive seasons I'm ok with her stepping back a bit
