Edward Mondrake found his next member - Twisty the clown is dead! Shame. He should have stuck around for the whole of the season imo. His shot off mouth looked grotesque and his back story was quite sad. Such a good character too, but it looks like Dandy's going to become the new Twisty. I was hoping he wouldn't kill Dora but looks like he's gone over the edge now. He really is one messed up brat!
Elsa's back story was quite horrific too. Legs cut off for a snuff film, bit extreme but that's AHS for you!
I liked the scene where all the normal folk came to say thanks to Jimmy and the freaks but Jimmy's still going on about Meep!!! We hardly saw much of Meep anyway.
Another good thing about last night's ep there was no Frances Conroy and there was no song! Thank god!
With Twisty now dead and the kidnapped people returned to their families i wonder where the storyline wiill go now?
Well it's not as good as Murder House and Asylum, but i'm enjoying it. As for the thread not being active, well it's a 'cult' show and maybe would rather watch something else and talk about that instead.
Flashbacks and flashforwards (are the flashforwards merely fantasy or set in reality? Meaning do Stanley and Maggie really kill some of the freaks?)
Jimmy still going on about bloody Meep!
Multiple songs from the future
Vaginal bleeding
Gay bars
Dell a closet homosexual
Dandy practically naked
Dandy turning into a serial killer/new Twisty the Clown
I was confused by the whole cupcake museum thing with Dot and Bette. So they're actually find and nothings happened to them? So it was just a dream sequence? Or something that'll happen in the future but not happened yet? (As in, Dot and Bette will end up in the museum but just not in the way that was shown and not quite yet?)
I think I'm enjoying this season less than previous ones. Coven was messy at times, but the general theme of the internal and external feuds of the witches kept me interested. I'm not really feeling the freaks.

When you think about it, what 'freaks' does the show really focus on. It's mainly lobster boy and the conjoined twins. The rest of the freaks and that's not including the principal cast don't even get a look in, let alone a line or two to say. They're just there to make up the numbers. It's rather misleading.

They've featured the other 'freaks' plenty of times including the British actor with disfigured arms and the woman with no legs in last weeks story. Kathy Bates character, Angela Bassett and others have also been prominently featured.

I wasn't referring to them, they're the principal cast.
Ethel - woman with facial hair
Dell - physically strong
Desiree - has 3 tits
You can hardly label them 'freaks' even if that's what they're supposed to represent in the show.

Well like I said they did feature the British guy and the other woman with no legs last week which was very moving. And the back story of others over the last few weeks.

True, they did show her last week. Well we're almost halfway through the season with no end-game in sight, so i'm wondering what the 2nd half is going to bring.

I was including them in my comment. Arguably Dandy and his mother are also freaks, as are most of the other characters in their own way. In the same way that the "walking dead" refers to the human survivors not the zombies.
I feel the same as some of you, I am not enjoying this season as much as previous ones. However, I will keep watching to see if it improves over the next 3 episodes or so, if not...then there is always next season I guess.

But... what? They would have fitted in very well at a real freak show. Bearded ladies were part of a circus sideshow or freakshow. So was a strongman. I don't recall many women with three boobs but they would certainly have been labeled a freak. What are you expecting? They have to hire actors and how many actual actors have deformities? Many of the 'freaks' on the show are not actors at all. It would be foolish to hang a show on them. Plus, there's less potential when it comes to people who are less mobile.

First series since the first that I'm enjoying. Poor twisty
Jessica Lange's Gods and Monsters was awesome

I love her. She is a very underrated actress.
Not given up. I love it.
Definite improvement on Coven.

Overall i still rather enjoyed it.
Dandys great - 'why won't you die - you're making me feel bad!'

They would have been labelled as extra also.
