I'm really liking this season so far, but i feel like it lacks something that the first & second season had (not sure what, LOL)

My favourite character so far is Misty :D

& like others, I keep wanting to call Kyle, Tate haha

I've only seen the first episode, so far. Does it pick up? I'm feeling like this season is lacking something. It hasn't pulled me in like the other two seasons.

Maybe it's a genre thing for you, like it was for me... Wasn't totally psyched by the Pilot (just not my favorite sub-genre) but now I'm hooked. Good solid story-telling, acting and direction. Definitely stick with it, especially if you've liked previous seasons.

Thanks! It could be a genre thing for me as well. I love the actors, they did so well the first two seasons. And the new ones seem promising. I'll start up again tonight.

I don't know about this now. The show is kind of losing steam just like with the other seasons. It's of course headed for a big blow up. But it feels like they are starting the whole twist thing again. Maybe things will be more to my liking in the next episode.

Oh, man, I disagree with you! I thought the last episode was fantastic!!




[SPOILERS]

  • Fiona and the Axeman - I thought that the Axeman was going to blackmail her into - I don't know - Making him into some kind of super-human or something... But the twist I found delightfully creepy! (also I'm always impressed when my assumptions with a plot twist are wrong) - It's so a macabre yet oddly romantic tale - I love the idea that he's always watched over her like a daughter and then fell in love with her - So beautifully macabre!
  • Spalding SPEAKS! - I love Dennis O'Hare; seeing Spalding speak was fantastic - I hope that he's not actually dead; this character is so eccentric and interesting. The concept of the living tongue was also creepy and well-done. I'm enjoying watching Zoe's powers extend - I like the idea of her potentially following the Fiona path
  • The Madison & Kyle relationship was creepy and well-done (What struck me in particular is that it really hit me that here are two DEAD PEOPLE fucking - Whereas I never really had that problem with, say, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, I liked that the scene unnerved me) - And the threesome with Zoe just added to the creepiness. Brilliant.
  • As for Queenie and Delphine... I wasn't sure how to feel about this relationship with Queenie supposedly was warming up to Delphine... I didn't buy it and wasn't really a fan... But yet, when she turns Delphine over, I couldn't help but feel some sympathy (WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME?? DELPHINE IS AWFUL!!) - The fact that I feel so conflicted with it just punctuates how well-done the writing is!




[/SPOILERS]



Loved that episode. Can't wait to see what happens next!

I love this season maybe it's just because, I love witches but, this messed up crazy show just has me hooked. Jessica Lange is amazing and I never thought we'd see such a diverse cast on TV. There's so much going on that just drives soccer moms mad and I'm loving every second.

I'm not liking this season as much as the others. There just seems to be something missing

This may be a generational and/or gender based thing, I'm thinking. I'm not digging this season as much as previous seasons either. I still like it and watch every episode, but it's not wowing me like last season. I think they're definitely focusing on the younger demographic this year.

I want more Kathy Bates, and I want to see her duking it out with Lange the way Lange and Cromwell did last season.

I agree. I also think they're aiming toward a younger demographic. I want more Kathy Bates, too! The scenes with her and Fiona are so good. I'd also like to see more scenes with Jessica Lange and Angela Bassett.
