I was more excited for coven when the name was released, but that turned out to be a bit of a mess despite the amazing concept.

I think Ryan Murphy is more creative in terms of AHS when it's set in the past.

Hopefully it's more in the vein of Asylum with really dark twists and stuff

I think a Circus could be great, it could give them a great chance to expand and refresh the cast, seeing as S1 & S3 had such a small main cast (whereas S2 had a lot more recurring characters)

I hope they really shake it up though, make Sarah Paulson the character everyone loves to hate, make Jessica Lange a character everyone sympathises with, make taissa (if she returns) and evan hate each other, i'm bored of all the characters being in the same mold

Hm possibly, but then again when I think of all the potential story lines they could explore it winds up leading back to magic (Coven) or something weird and involving surgery or gore (Asylum). Heroes did a circus vibe really poorly too and I can't help but feel that AHS will wind up meandering down a similar path.

I love those ideas though! Hopefully the writers'll do that!

I wonder what time period it will be, when were Freakshows really big? I'm thinking like the 1920's, right?

They should get Verne Troyer, he's not done much lately. And maybe the Rock to be the strong man.

I think the pinhead girl from Asylum is definitely gonna be back. Pepper.

What other famous freaks are there in Hollywood?

Pete Burns would be amazing.

I hope Freak Show can be a more coherent version of Asylum.

I thought Asylum was very coherent... pure sadism at a Catholic mental hospital and aliens experimenting with bloodlines...interestingly the bloodlines thing also tied into the bloodyface's son storyline.

What loose ends did you have? bloodyface and bloodyface jr. both got their comeuppance. The Nazi doctor ended up in an oven. Sister Jude finally repented and received salvation. I thought it was a well rounded season and everything was tied up by the end. What did you find incoherent about it?

The fact that it left all it's stories right till the last 4 or 5 episodes and it all felt rushed, the season needed to be a 20 to 25 episode season to be able to solve most of the mysteries properly, Bloodyface was the story they resolved well in Asylum imo.

well i certainly can't disagree that it should be a proper 20-24 episode season. But cable shows unfortunately always have much shorter seasons. the Soprano's used to only give us 10 episodes, and then even take a year off in-between. Homeland also is way too short.

Unfortunately you must sacrifice quantity for quality. AHS always has so many characters that it does feel like it moves too quickly and you never get to enjoy every character as much as you'd like. Sometimes you barely see a character for weeks at a time because they are focusing on the other story lines.

Perhaps they should move to a more Lost-esque method, where each episode tries to focus on just one character for the entire episode... i feel they flirt with that idea, but it does feel a bit disjointed the way you can have 1 character really focused on in episode 3, but then not hear anything about that character again for 5 episodes...

It really is the kind of show that is best watched in a box set way. Total binge-watch material. I watched Asylum in binge-watch mode watched the first 6 in one sitting, then the second 6 in 1 sitting. and i loved it. I watched Coven in real time, and i found it less enjoyable.

Set in Jupiter, Florida, in 1950, Freak Show finds Jessica Lange playing a German ex-pat who is managing one of the last freak shows in the U.S. Her group of “unusuals”? Kathy Bates, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Angela Bassett, and Frances Conroy all play performers whom Lange’s character has rescued; Denis O’Hare and Emma Roberts are also in talks to return. Freak Show’s 13 episodes will track this group as they do anything to keep their business around.
