I'm pretty much in line with everyone else. Asylum touched on so many things that were going on or still deeply felt by people when I was growing up- UFOs, Nazi experiments, demonic possession, and... damn... what was that one plot line that I can't recall now... it dealt with an unsolved mystery in history...
Still love Murder House even though Asylum was more off the wall and hyper-everything... but Murder House really took everyone by surprise. There had never been anything quite like it before. And Jessica Lange was a revelation.
Coven tried too hard to do too much, though I love that it used some of my favorite actresses like Mare Winningham, Patty LuPone and Kathy Bates, even though they didn't get enough to do.
I hope that Brad Falchuk and company will listen to criticisms of the 3rd season and come back with all barrels blazing for FREAK SHOW.
