It sure wasn’t American Horror Story: Freak Show. I had never watched a single episode of A.H.S. before this latest season. Not because I didn’t want to, I just never really had an opportunity to. But, when I watched Ms Paulson during an interview on the TODAY Show last Fall and she described her “Bet & Dot” two-headed freak character, well, let’s just say….I was intrigued to tune-in and see what this “Freak Show” had to offer. And, am I GLAD that I did!!! What a stellar cast of actors and actresses! From the wonderful Jessica Lange to the amazing Kathy Bates and everyone else. The storylines gripped me from the very first episode and I couldn’t hardly wait for each new episode. The truth of the matter is, this type of “Freak Show” really did exist back in the day. Can you imagine just how estranged, lonely, outcast and full of pain these freak show performers must have felt? I can, thanks to the somewhat truthful storylines of the A.H.S. “Freak Show” series. I even had my husband watching it….which is a difficult task considering that he basically only watches ESPN Sports Center!! Now, I can’t hardly wait for the next season of American Horror Story to begin. I say, bravo & well-done to American Horror Story: Freak Show!!!

What does “Glee” actually have to do with “Freakshow? What was so hard to understand about the characters? All of the writer’s allusions seemed to come from a young and shallow person with no understanding of the history of freaks. Maybe the writer is better at covering shows like ” American Idol “.

So when they get killed off it isn’t particularly epic.

Still love the show…

I understand the characters and how they made the show complete. There are a few points where it seems like the critic was watching with his eyes shut-lol. My favorite one so far was the Coven season, but I’ve thoroughly enjoyed each series and can’t wait until the next begins-and also, Jessica Lange is an AMAZING actress. (One more very important thing not to be forgotten ….She has absolutely gorgeous legs!!!)

He is so wrong and represents perfectly what is wrong w/ the basic concept of professional criticism! I thought AHS Freakshow was amazing!! Brave, unique and only possible in America!! To achieve that quality of acting, writing and effects on a weekly TV show is mind bogglingly difficult and its a shame that some wet blanket critic is allowed to hyper criticize and split hairs on something that is meant as casual, escapist entertainment!!!! That critic couldn’t pull off a show of that quality w/ all the time and money in the world!! I despise critics like that!! Thank you AHS for a fun ride and I look forward to next year w/ bated breath!!!!
