[Lights and Waves]

This episode proved that AHS writers have not learned **** and that the series will yet again go off the deep end. That dinner seen was so stupid and cringe worthy. Fan fiction teas.

Sorry. I get where you're coming from. I completely understand my frustration ruining the experience. I know that when someone comes into a thread about something I love, and then they drag it, somewhat brings my excitement and mood down. It isn't at all that bad. I just want this season to be so good, and I think coming off two amazing episodes 1 & 2, I was just left a little underwhelmed. This season is better than Freak Show and I'm enjoying it a lot more, but I haven't nagged about this season up until this point. I stayed positive last episode. And I've been in this thread so hyped, so excited.

I watched episode 1 & 2, walked away needing more, and I had so much I wanted to talk about, now not so much. I still want more, I just have less to talk about in exciment right now. I hope this makes sense.

I still should be able to express my opinions, but I really didn't need to hit send, because in that moment I just felt frustration for what I felt was wasted and rushed space.

I'm not a hater, fan since Murder House. I just want so badly for this season to be good, and for me to not just continue watching the show because I've loved it since Murder House, and for me to genuinely be intrigued. This is also coming from a Gaga fan, and she alone has be over the moon.

A simple ranking system of episodes will do.

I get it sis, I just don't appreciate when people/fans don't have any tact when it comes to tv shows and albums. What works for you might not work for someone else and vice versa. You should be able to express your opinions but think about whether it's gonna annoy others in the same discussion. I've been with this show since its first episode and when Freakshow aired I was so disappointed with everything. I posted couple of times in that thread I believe and it was before it aired saying I'm not feeling the theme. That's it. Same can be applied to albums/singles/episodes.

You need to understand that your (generalizing) nagging and picking the episode apart will be read, and will be taken into account by someone who genuinely likes the plot or the episode and it will ruin it for them.

I think critiquing someone's acting/the plot/character development is fine as long as it's not done in a hysterical kind of way 'Omg this is it, this ruined it for me, I can't they're ruining this whole show, I'm so done with Ryan, he's talenelessssss' especially when we're not even in the middle of the season. That's why I said you should save it for when it ends. You can drag all you want then but rn it's kind of ruining the following episodes for the rest of us.... if it makes sense.

I have a question. How would you explain horror as a genre, and more so American Horror Story to someone religious. Someone who comes from the standpoint, that this is of the devil because of its themes. I personally am a horror fan, and like the art of darkness, but how would you describe it to someone. Like them using killers in their show, may come off as glorifying what they did etc. I have a hard time explaining it, because I personally don't see it that way.


We enjoy thrills, their unfortunately is evil in this world etc, etc

How would you justify it I guess is what I'm asking.

You don't. Just tell them it's fiction and only dumb/weak/simple-minded people would think of it as anything more.
Also you can compare it to any thriller movie that person has ever watched where someone gets shot. That's more realistic than anything in AHS and if they don't have problem with that they need to keep quiet.

3 > 2 > 1 > 4 IMO

The Zodiac Killer. He was never caught. And he also gave himself his own nickname, unlike most serial killers, who get their names from the media.

There's a pretty good movie about him from a few years back starring Jake Gyllenhaal. You should check it out.

I remember seeing it on the shelves when I used to work at Blockbuster. I will check it! Thanks!

I need a gif of Queen Lily whipping ha hair.

[Giorgoc]

Okay Lily better snatch that Emmy. JESSICA WHO?!

The episode was ****ing boring. 2 > 3 > 1 >>> 4.
First time I was bored this season, but it's still much better than Freak Show and Coven - obviously.

Gaga was also meh, hoping this was filmed together with the premiere.

[Eaten By Lions]

The fact that they portrayed these real serial killers in scenes with light-hearted, celebratory banter. If I were one of Jeffrey Dahmer's victims I would haunt Ryan Murphy for that.

Loved the episode though. It seems like The Countess is turning someone every episode.

Didn't think this episode was filler at all, I though there was a lot of blanks being filled in. AHS always does something interesting with the dead for Halloween so the dinner was no surprise.

Evan Peters is very convincing in his character. His voice is on-point, is has an eery, old-fashion quality to it that's perfect.

I think that a lot of people going into this episode already had a big up their ass about it because of that thing someone posted a day or so ago about this episode being written by the "worst writers". How anyone could call this episode boring, or filler, is beyond me. It was a great episode, and it did just the right amount to move the story along, while also giving that twisted Halloween entertainment value that Halloween episodes usually have. It was a fine episode and I think people are nitpicking too much at this point

This will probably be the reason for her downfall.

This episode left me a bit underwhelmed but it was still good. That moment whey they played the music from It Follows
Hope that they didn't just throw that dinner party for the sake of it and that they made it just to reveal later John being the TCK

[Hurem]

this is getting so boring, i can't... My least favorite season so far

I was talking about episodes 5-7, not the 4th episode. Jennifer Salt is a great writer and has written a lot of great episodes in Murder House and Asylum

This episode was kinda dumb Alex is literally the stupidest character in the history of this show. She found her son seemingly unaged, in a random hotel, and didn't take him to the hospital/call the police/tell her husband. Then she takes his temperature and he's like, dead-levels of cold and she just gets him some juice. Then he eats the dog & she takes him back to where she found him. Like, wtf?

Then instead of calling the police or something she immediately decides to become a vampire to stay with him.. like I thought the Harmons were dumb in season 1 for staying in that house but this is whole new levels

They're clearly starting to go over the top with this season & it's starting to ruin it for me.

Guys... I just realized something.
If John really is the 10CK, and Alex is now a vampire... wouldn't that mean they are the same as The Countess and Mr. March?

Is that the plot? Are Alex and John going to become owners of the hotel in the end? Him replacing the serial killer, and her replacing the vampiress? Living there with Holden and those other little monsters, and that daughter they don't care about?

not you spoiling the whole season

[sk8erfan]

Anyone here loving the episode as much as I do? As I was watching it I tried to put myself in John's shoes and I was like: 'This is what horror means to me. If I was in that situation I'd probably just die'...I love how Hotel actually captures different concepts of horror beyond the late 00s definition of horror as something that must make you jump otherwise it's not considedred scary. The psychological game in this season is spot on and while there were some flaws here and there the overall atmosphere was one I particularly enjoyed. And oh, Lily was on fire...At certain points you could easily say 'Oh wow, this really is Aileen!'..Loved it!

Well that makes sense then, because Devil's Night was a great episode lol

[ArtForFreedom]

It's getting a little too far fetched and hokey for me

[Kayhan]

AHS coming for that 0.5m viewers next week bookmark me.


That was a nice Clint Eastwood tribute tho

[romonster]

This episode was interesting but I liked the previous 3 episodes more.
From the previews the next one will be much better

[genetic fail]

Jeffrey Dahmer was so hot
He and John should have totally hooked up
