This needs to start soon because I'm too excited to wait.

The pictures look great. I'm happy that Jamie's returning. She contributes to the amazing female-powered cast.

Some more bits of info about the series


Sarah Paulson will play Jessica Lange’s daughter.

Angela Basset’s character, Marie Laveau, is based of a real life “iconic" New Orleans character.

"Some of us play witches, some are historical characters," says Lange. Show will jump times, she plays a witch.
"The fun quotient is a lot higher this year," promises #AHSCoven EP Tim Minear.

"Oppression of minorities of all kinds" is a major theme for AHS: COVEN, says Tim Minear.

There’s a very strong theme of family that will be explored on this year’s #AHS Coven

Apparently they've decided to use Alexandra Breckinridge as the young Frances Conroy. I'm glad, it would have felt weird otherwise.

Yay

I enjoyed season 1, before it suddenly went off the rails and had a completely bizarre wrap up that made me feel it wasn't fully thought through.

Is season 2 better? Is the conclusion satisfying?

[Tom4784]

Season 2 starts off slow and a bit crap but it picks up.

looks like you were right

Coven will be a massive witch-off: Salem vs. voodoo. "The witches of Salem, the smart ones, got out very early and they were none of the ones who were burned," Murphy explained. "They all gravitated toward New Orleans, where they now live, and every generation has a great witch who has the most powers of them all, and that's called the Supreme. Ms. Jessica Lange is the Supreme."

"It really is about the witches of Salem pitted against voodoo witches," he continued. "It's been a centuries-long feud and it's up to Jessica Lange and Angela Bassett to mend the fence." (Bassett is playing Marie Laveau, "the voodoo queen of New Orleans" whose real-life reign lasted from the 1820s to the 1860s.) Obviously, expect things between the witches — and non-witches — to escalate quickly. "The witches are really sort of a great allegory and metaphor for any minority group that has been persecuted and has had to go underground and, finally, is like, 'You know what? Dammit, no. We're fighting back,' so that's what they do."

It looks like Coven will be set in both the present day and the 1830s. In addition to Bassett's Laveau, Kathy Bates is playing actual historical serial killer Marie Delphine LaLaurie, a.k.a. Madame LaLaurie, who Murphy called "the most evil woman ever." LaLaurie and her third husband tortured and killed several of their slaves in New Orleans in the 1830s, and were discovered only when firefighters broke down a door and discovered their gruesome murder chamber. Ick. But Murphy promised this season would be lighter than Asylum. "It's much more buoyant and comedic and crafty than last season, which was much darker by design because it was about heavy social stuff," he said, then laughed. "Frances Conroy plays Jessica's rival from high school times."

Sounds good

I actually loved s2 even though a lot hated it... I really liked Lana for some strange reason even though everyone i watched it with hated her

[lily.]

I loved Lana. For me, she was the star of Season 2. She was so damaged.

"Who doesn’t want to be Jessica Lange’s daughter?" jokes Paulson, who also played Laura Wingfield to Lange’s Amanda in Broadway’s Glass Menagerie. Unfortunately, this mother-daughter relationship is fraught with contention. “Our characters are very different kind of women and that’s where the conflict comes, but I’m her child, so there’s some question as to why I’m different,” she says. And just wait until you meet Lange’s new character Fiona. “She’s not Constance from Season 1, actually,” executive producer Tim Minear says. “She’s much, much worse.”
