Bloody Disgusting is an amazing site. I love their reviews.
Quote:
Speaking of vampires, it takes quite a bit of time before Lady Gaga is introduced. She’s “The Countess,” a seductive, eccentric and methodical vampire who owns the Cortez Hotel. Yet, even with the power of Gaga’s performance, Sarah Paulson, who plays Sally, a junkie and friend of The Countess, has the most provocative character of them all.
Am I the only one who interpreted this as "At first Gaga was going to be in 3 episodes, but then she was like MORE and she is going to be in 8 episodes" and then he was talking talking and he was like "so yeah she decided to be in the season"
I think he was still refering to the 8 episodes ... ?
He says "she said I'm gonna do the whole season...." which is 13 episodes.
After a disappointing fourth season, “American Horror Story” returns to FX with “Hotel,” which spends most of the debut episode building and introducing characters.
(...)
The most exciting thing about each season’s debut episode is the visual introduction to the characters and locations. While “Freak Show” may have been the most vibrant and colorful of them all, “Hotel” features stunning costume designs and set pieces that are nothing short of spectacular.
But, what I found most intriguing about “Hotel” is that it appears FX and Ryan Murphy have taken their gloves off. Being that “Hotel” is the fifth season, I don’t think the filmmakers have any fear of losing committed viewers. Thus, they have taken everything to the edge of gluttony, which is ironically part of the underlying story-arc.
(...) Ryan Murphy and company have set the stage for a monstrous fifth season that’s boasting its ability to be unapologetic from sex to the drugs and violence.
Positive review overall. Gaga's performance is also kinda praised, so that's also positive.
I'm confused. Lemme wait for further word cuz "full season" can be interpreted so many ways. I hope it's not just 8, though, cuz ANY main cast member only being in 8 is tragic.
