Starts tomorrow 21st October at 10pm on Fox. I thought Coven ran out of ideas towards the end of the season. Let's hope this season continues strongly. Great cast list this time round.

Is he still writing for AHS or has he handed the reins over to other people?
It's a 90min feature length opener. Being repeated again at 1.30am.
Presumably it will cover similar ground to Carnivale.
Out of AHS so far I only really enjoyed Asylum so going to give this series ago, I thought the first episode had a better start than Coven did at least.
I loved Murder House instantly and loved Asylum after got used to it after a few episodes, Coven i didn't bother with and Ep1 for this season is so-so for me so far. It sure was a stabby happy episode. I don't think i've seen no many stabbings in one single episode of a television show! Gruesome, yes, but necessary??
The killer clown and the siamese twins were brilliant. Sarah Paulson doing excellent work as usual. Great to see Pepper from Asylum in this. I'm guessing this is where she was before she was put into the Asylum? Jessica Lange was good but not too keen on the song at the end. Why was she singing Life on Mars a song from the 70's by David Bowie when the show is set in 1951? It would be really stupid for that to be an oversight surely they did their research? Or it was done deliberately? Has no one else noticed this? Either way if there's more songs in every episode it's seriously going to put me off. This isn't Glee! Were there songs in Coven??
As for Kathy Bates, what accent is that meant to be?!?!
I did like seeing some of the other 'freaks' - the tallest model, the shortest woman, etc - i'll keep on watching for sure as i'm sure it's only going to get better. Looking forward to Vic Mackey appearing next week.
There is more songs to come and yes they deliberately chose anachronistic songs.
Coven had Stevie Nicks turn up and sing Seven Wonders.
The clown is genuinely scary, though, and it was great to see Pepper again. The effects for Paulson's Siamese twins was very good as well (hmm, I think we're supposed to call them conjoined twins these days).
So at the moment an amalgamation of AHS, Glee and Carnivale but a good start.
Liked - Pepper from Asylum, the nod to Mad Men when Jessica Lange said she was smoking Lucky Strike ciggies, double Sarah Poulson and Life on Mars.
Disliked - Kathy Bates' accent and the wee woman/girl? who freaked me out.
It achieved it's objective then.
Why would anyone want to post in a thread which says SPOILERS INCLUDED?!
I don't know what you're like but i don't like reading spoilers. Who wants to watch a show and be told what's going to happen? What's the point in even watching? Use some common sense!
I have common sense thank you very much and my thread said Spoilers included because we would be discussing the episode and it would mean people could discuss the episode without putting everything in tags
Horrible judgemental person. Give people a chance to explain before going off on one. Your nothing but a bully
You all treat me like an outsider on here and go to great lengths to start arguments with me. Sick of it.
When we say no spoilers, it means no spoilers ahead of broadcast, so once an episode has begun broadcasting, that episode can be discussed without spoiler tags.
You are the one who went whingey when your thread didn't take off but another one did.
I can see nobody starting arguments, but you, you wanted to have a moan that your thread didn't take off, ridiculous.
The one criticism I always have of AHS is that it usually starts great and then goes all over the place. Hope this season flows better.
Best bits were seeing Pepper again, Elsa's big reveal, The Life On Mars song, Bette and Dot. Loved it.
Never went all wingey, i made a point and an observation
But last time i checked, this conversation didn't start with you. Again, another bully. It isn't being ridiculous when someone stands up for themselves and continually finds themselves ostracised on here but members like you become aggressive and nasty when someone is open about how they feel. Judging by your reaction, i can easily see what your role was like the playground at school. A nasty bully. I know the whole your feeling sorry for yourself comments will follow. I am just open about how i feel. People go out there to make my time on here difficult and you are indeed one.
I think so, it's set ten years before Asylum.
I am not bullying you thats just down right stupid. If your thread doesnt take off you dont go onto another one and act like you are hard done by. Then to accuse everyone of bullying you is just annoying.
I was far from the bully of the playground but thanks for judging my character based on a passing comment, ill remember to judge you and assume that you don't like it when people don't agree with you and whiney.
