Coven was essentially the definition of selling out they pandered to the tumblr crowd and white girls 100%.

If Freakshow is dark like Asylum, which Murphy said it will be, it won't be selling out. Period.

I distinctly remember reading a quote where he said something about Season 4 being similar to Coven.

Yeah. He said it's going to have the camp humor that Coven had. That just makes it worse.

He also did say that it wasn't going to be a circus/carnival/etc. theme, though, because everyone guessed it (a majority of people did; not just ATRL), yet he said everyone was wrong, so I don't know where he's going with all this.

Didn't he also say that it was going to take place in an earlier time period... then he took it back and said it was going to jump from past to present?

He's so confusing sometimes.

He didn't say he was changing the format of the show. It's always been a past and present story line, with the present dominating the plot. It's just reversed. It's predominantly 1950s and will have some present/future story line incorporated.

I don't get this though? what's the clue?

[AMIT]

OMG, I'm so excited for this!!

Hopefully it'll be better than Coven.

Honestly... I feel like FX made Ryan Murphy change the theme to pander to what everyone wanted.

There was so many clues that pointed toward aliens or whatever.

Asylum had aliens. This IS American Horror Story. ...

[Sorbet]

Asylum was EVERYTHING. I'm ready for something similar

Y'all are too much seriously

And witches?

All of the season themes are horror story cliches tbh...

People think it looks a bit like a clowns face.

What kind of fortunetelling teas on my side

Originally posted by Grin Toll

I'd like, for next season, a team of professional assassins running a traveling circus as a cover-up. Jessica will be the crime baroness, owner of the circus, arranging deals with customers. Lily will be the respected yet greedy professional killer who only cares about money. Evans will be the maniac who is only in for the joy of killing and has an obsession for murder toys/tools. Their mission would be to execute key people in a huge corporation and an assassin hired to kill Jessica. As the story develops we'll be watching how these evil people came together, what their backgrounds were like, how they are connected/turned against each other at times and how they travel from town to town entertaining people in daylight and killing them in night. Sarah will be the sneaky bitch who gathers information on people and seduces them just to kill them off after the sex like a blackwidow. Kathy Bates will be a kitchen freak, caterer of the circus, making cotton candy and ice-cream for children and deadly poisons for her targets. There'll be an illusionist and his partner/girlfriend who is also his partner in crime. They'll be madly in love, do everything together and approach their target together. There'll be a make-up artist, dressing like celebrities and performing for visitors, but she'll disguise as different people when after her hunt. Frances could be a fortuneteller hypnotizing/maipulating people and convince them to commit suicide.

He first said it was gonna take place in the year 1950 (and to pay attention to what happened that year?), then he said it was also going to take place in the present for a small bit, but mostly be set in 1950. The hint about paying attention to the year 1950 lead to some people believing about alien experiments conducted by German scientists in the year 1950, which I think would've been great.

Like, so many people have been saying "I hope it's not scary ", but this is American Horror Story. Coven was good, but it was more like American Horror Story: Bad Girls Club more than anything.

[Allstar]

Meh, I see them copying some other shows and movies but we'll see

[BeyonceHatesMe]

Hopefully this will actually be horror themed like Season 2. Reminds of Asylum. I think there could be a lot of possibilities with the characters.

[How Blue]

Let's hope they actually have good character development this season.
I was really upset with Coven's.
Some characters did complete 180's throughout the season.

I mean I liked Coven but I don't think I was scared once
Maybe the flashbacks to Delphine's torture chamber gave me some chills but Asylum legit made me scared. The theme can be so scary with clowns and other creepy looking people if they really go there, although I can't think of an interesting storyline.
Maybe a freakshow circus that goes around and kidnaps people and children I don't know...

I wouldn't have been mad at Alien experiments
