I can't agree with that, at least this series has some likable characters. Cult's characters were annoying from the beginning and only got worse when they changed for no reason because Murphy's storytelling that series was more schizophrenic than usual. Ally disappearing for a few episodes to become a bad ass manipulator and stone cold bitch after spending the first half of the season being a scared mess is one example, another is having Kai's character completely destroyed just to fit the whole crappily handled feminism=hating men angle that Murphy tried to force into the last few episodes. Everything that happened later on in that series basically made the first half pointless, they've kind of done that in this series admittedly with the first three episodes but at least half the season didn't end up mattering.
Cult was a chore to watch from the second episode onwards but intrigue has kept me watching this series at least.
Don't get me wrong though, this, along with Cult and Freakshow will be a season I'll never watch again. I just think that Cult is the worst thing AHS has ever done.
