História de Horror Americana

The 9 stars are for the first 9 seasons.

American Horror Story was a brilliant show in the early years, and I've watched some seasons on repeat, especially Hotel.

Sarah Paulson was one of the most talented, dynamic actors consistently throughout all of the different narratives and characters.

I was not excited at all about Double Feature or NYC, and Delicate is just bad. It's awful. If I had never seen American Horror Story before and only watched Delicate, I would give it one star.

All good things must come to an end, and Ryan Murphy just didn't know when to stop. At least we'll always have Coven.

I loved the first 2 seasons of ahs. This show had some good early seasons, especially asylum and freak show. Dandy and Twisty are terrifying. After season 4 freak show ahs went downhill. But the later seasons are awful. 0/10. After season 8 it becomes unwatchable. The opening credits of the show are the best part.

American horror story is a great if you're into this kind of horror, people that are into slasher movies/shows will probably not like this.

Overall AHS has its low seasons and high seasons, every season is very different and that's why most people aren't into all the seasons. Overall probably the best thing about this show is the casting and acting. Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Jessica Lange and Kathy Bates for example are incredible actors/actresses that never disappoint in this show.

I personally think its genius how Ryan Murphy managed to make every season very different from the ones before but still manages to connect all of them.

My opinions on the seasons;

1. Murder House: 7.5/10, Great season with some real scary things, not my favorite season, it had flaws but the casting was amazing. 2. Asylum: 9/10, Scariest season of all for sure, my kind of horror. You'd expect that a season that is mostly filmed in just one building would be kinda boring, but it sure wasn't. Incredibly great season 3. Coven: 8.5/10 probably the most hated season of the show, but why? I loved it. Sure, it wasn't that scary and it had flaws but the casting was perfect. Lange and Emma Roberts were both perfect for their roles. Evan Peters annoyed me though, his role with the whole love triangle with Madison and Zoe was stupid. Probably my favorite season although it wasnt scary at all. 4. Freak Show: 5.5/10 Doesn't compete with the other seasons to me, the casting was good but that was about it. Overall I kinda enjoyed it, I guess? The ending was disappointing although Lange left the series in a great way. The only character I really enjoyed was the villain. Not a great season, sorry. 5. Hotel: 6.5/10 Not a very beloved season by most, but to me it was watchable and I dont feel like I wasted my time watching it. The casting was okay, Lady Gaga did great job acting and definitely added a great touch to the season but apart from that it wasn't a really interesting season all around. A lot of blood and sex but not the best season of the show. Overall I would recommend watching it although most people aren't into it. 6: Roanoke 7/10 Finally another scary season. The season felt like a haunted-House horror movie but longer. Sarah Paulson did incredible as the "crazy, paranoid wife". A big plot twist in the middle of the season and it left me with some confusion but I sure did enjoy this season. 7. Cult 7/10 Before the season started I was really scared I wasn't gonne like this, politics, clowns and Evan as the villian, but after watching it I actually enjoyed it. The concept was alright to me and some episodes were just boring. Again, Sarah Paulson played the crazy wife but again, she portrayed it well. Her wife was very annoying and I hoped she'd die early on but she didn't. The "different" episode with Frances Conroy was incredibly boring and didnt feel needed but sure let's forget about it. Sarah did a perfect job and her character was great, excited to see more of her next season.

I love this show and I'm definitely excited for season 8 (Apocalypse) and season 9&10. I can understand why people dislike it but it just is your cup if tea or it isn't. Hope to see more of these horror shows in the future.

AHS is sometimes a great show. Some seasons are amazing and some are just ok. Season 9 was not that great and so far season 10 is awful. The writing now feels like it was written by a teenager. The dialogue doesn't feel natural at all. The whole vibe is different and amateurish. Scenes are included that are ridiculous and don't make sense, even for a fictional horror show.

I highly recommend the early seasons though so I'm still rating it highly. It was innovative and unique. I looked forward to the episodes every week. The cast, acting, and the writing were all phenomenal. There were fan theories that they all tied together which made it even more interesting. If they would've ended it on top it would be a 10/10.

I remember watching the first season of American Horror Story (now called Murder House) and thinking "WHAT THE H*** WITH THIS SHOW?" - it was unexpected, visceral, graphic and just really compelling. Twists came out you so fast and the characters were all memorable and stunning.

Seasons 1-7 really are good with my favorite being "Asylum" - Murder House, Coven, Hotel all add pieces to already stunning puzzle. Good writing, well shot. Both Roanoke and Freakshow were a bit weak but in both cases you could see the writers were trying to stretch and pushed past what they could do. Cult was the worst of this group as showrunners tried their hands at politics which didn't really translate to this genre. Still, it was visual and interesting.

Season 8 picks up characters and storylines from the best of the previous seasons and gives a full-circle story. Worth every minute with characters (particularly from MH and Coven) you really like.

Season 9 forward shows what happens when a series runs out of what made it great. In trying to start a "new" arc - the show is all over the place and really poor in quality. The emphasis on "hot gay characters' replaces deep or quirky people, and the show itself searches for a genre - 1984 can't decide if its making fun of 80's slasher films or if its trying to be one, Double feature gives anthology style a chance and fails twice - neither story is long enough to tell a good story or short enough to dismiss. NYC is the AIDS allegory no one asked for, and Delicate shows AHS at its saddest grasp yet - writing a vehicle for Kim Kardashian because. Love her or hate her, people will watch here.

AHS has gone from ground-breaking TV to the lowest of low hanging fruit. Watch 1-8 or at least watch 1,2,3, 6, 8. Let go of the rest.
