little_girl_lost Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 I'm not loving it so far. It's too much in your face with political messages but I will give it a chance to come together It feels too real like, not a bit of it seems like fantasy in this fantasy/horror series it feels like I was watching tv and flipping between fox and cnn why wouldn't the sarah Paulson/Allison pill couple believe their son over the nanny that they knew for a few days? when the kid can just turn around and say everything the nanny showed him? I hope it all comes together, as calamitous as It seems sidenote: chaz bono in a trump hat was jarring to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't get why they chose to believe Winter either. Now it seems Kai will run for some type of office. This better get good otherwise this will wind up being my least favorite season. I'm not even sure I like Sarah Paulson's character at all. She's just a total mess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1pooh4u Posted September 6, 2017 Author Share Posted September 6, 2017 I also thought it was funny in a cringe like way that a lesbian couple owns a restaurant called The Butchery.

little_girl_lost Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 That was Chaz in the grocery store? yes I didn't get why they chose to believe Winter either. Now it seems Kai will run for some type of office. people are fawning over billie lourd, but her performance is very flat, almost robotic, but idk, maybe she was directed that way. they made a big deal about lena dunham joining the cast, but them name-drop her in the first ep, establishing her in the AHS universe, so she could only play herself now, actors playing themselves is boring as shit. And I like AHS having historical elements (i.e. black dahlia, madam laveau, Rudolph valentine, Edward mordrake, Roanoke) not current news as a backdrop. They need another season set in a time period like season 2 was mostly in the 1960s. This season is shaping up to be weak, I hope it gets better.

Billie Lourde was purposely flat I think she's supposed to be so shocked by the election results I didn't like Evan Peter's spiel to I guess the city council or the councilman's retort. The whole 4chan mom basement bit. I agree with you. I like when they flip back and forth through time. I hope they air that secret season to make up for this lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little_girl_lost Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 One more thing I noticed in this and I see in almost every part of television the lesbian couple's friends/neighbours, the Asian couple that got murdered, Why on tv are Asians only married to other Asians? I would think the super progressive show producers and writers would be above using that trope. and I had to read articles about this season to figure out that evan peters and billie lord's characters were siblings.

1pooh4u Posted September 6, 2017 Author Share Posted September 6, 2017 This plus clips of Trump are a 'Hellll No!' for me. I think the creators made a huge mistake going in this direction so far it's all about the anxiety people went through after he won and PoS feeling empowered to do wtf they want. I watch this show as an escape not to watch what I see people go through everyday I could be jumping the gun and it can turn out to be a great season I'm just super skeptical right now S: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapinator_X Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Just as I predicted earlier in the year! But I understand why people are put off by this years AHS. It sounds interesting on paper, but the election was just last year, and it feels alot less enjoyable when the backdrop is something that's happening right now, albeit with some supernatural flair to it. The joke I did earlier in the year was about the Inauguration being the next AHS, but that's why I have a hunch that this season might not be as good; you could watch the news for the same effect.

mochi Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Have you ever watched a single season? Why don't you like him? I've watched his other shows all his shows seem to be written from a stand-point of him being afraid to do anything that might offend straight people, all his gay characters are stereotypical and insulting, sort of seeming like carbon copies of Jack from Will & Grace, and he's one of these writers who goes out of his way to make all his characters horrible people who the Audience shouldn't be rooting for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for his portrayal of lgbtq characters I'm not looking at them thinking it's a realistic portrayal mostly cuz no relationships in entertainment are realistic imo. Lol, yeah the main character right now, Nicky, I think is her name (played by Sarah Paulson) is annoying to me atm. Afraid of everything and she has a scene with her therapist where she fawns over Obama and says how proud she was of him. I think that my be my shit though. I'm not one to express pride in others. It's insulting imo, like who the fuck am I to be proud of someone else's accomplishments. I dunno I'm probably just a crotchety old lady on this point. :catlol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DragonSinger Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 a little insulting to women to say that's disgusting, but ok, I'm not insulted, I know why you said that I kinda feel the same way because the 'Everyone gay just luurrvs Lady Gaga!' crap annoys the shit out of me. Ryan Murphy has been on my shitlist repeatedly because I've been watching his stuff since Nip/Tuck. He does have talent but like the Wachowskis, his storylines can go off the rails real quick if it's not self-contained. I think that's why American Crime Story, American Horror Story(Excluding Cult), and Feud are better received by critics than his other stuff(Glee past the second season made me want to put my foot up his ass multiple times).

I don't think it was an "Everyone gay just luurrvs Lady Gaga" as much as it was her character was a pretty old vampire that was sexually enticing to humans regardless of their declared orientation. She did kind of force herself on him from what I recall, she had an endgame though, it wasn't like she just wanted to screw a gay dude. Come to think of it, I'm not even sure the gay character was ever shown with another man at all and if he was it was so unremarkable that I don't remember it cat| Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

little_girl_lost Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Episode 2- Don't Be Afraid of the Dark I know that madness is a lot of what this season is, but I hate when i'm watching a horror movie/show that has a character who has hallucinations. I want to know what's real in what i'm watching and its almost always a "gotcha" when something turns out to be a hallucination/dream. They introduced some new character. just to kill them. And the new neighbours across the street. I find billy eichner annoying. And clearly they were colluding with Kai filming his "attack". Ally is the most annoying character in a few seasons of the show, and Ivy is doing almost nothing for the show. And I don't like that this show is relying heavily on the racism brought upon by trump, as if that's the scariest part of his election. If there is a latino character, right away there is someone there being racist against them in the name of trump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
