What does Gaga's acting skills have to do with the season rating? Doing the most

Final scores (maybe):

Rotten Tomatoes - 53% (47 Reviews)
Metacritic: 60 (24 Reviews)

After some select re-watching, I feel like Gaga was actually one of the better parts of the episode. The weakest part of the episode was the opening with the two girls, the weird unnecessary rape scene, and the bloody dual sex scene.

Gaga actually did a fairly good job. I can see why the weak parts of the episode resulted in these reviews now.

I will keep watching, just for Gaga, for now, I suppose.

53% looks much better than 44%, so glad it went up

Also the most reviewed season of ASH on RT, Gaga ha power

You mean the foursome? That was easily the standout of the episode.

Well... I thought it was interesting, but overtly bloody. Like, I understand why, but it seemed overdone. I loved Gaga's speaking parts though. She was much better than I initially expected.

Vampirism is sooo 2005

Gaga's acting was mediocre at best, her line readings were tragic. I'm hoping she improves as the series goes on, because she's not off to a great start.

How can episode 1 have a higher score than 'the season', since critics only reviewed episode 1?

Yikes.
A Madonna stan talking about sh!tty acting when so many of her films are panned
OT: Episode 2 is so much better. Gaga's acting seems to be much better.

no idea. it's ********
