Oh crap...American Horror Story just started with a Down's kid and Ginger Twins(activate!!!) I love it already

I just got home and was able to watch it. Lots of different stuff going on. It was ok, going to take a few episodes to see if it will be good.

'American Horror Story' scares up strong FX ratings | Inside TV | EW.com

Preview did not get great reviews...expected that though. This is going to be a show for certain folks. Not for everyone. Hopefully it catches enough of 'those people' to last a while.

Well, I watched the pilot last night and I ****ing loved it. So weird and depraved.

Really hope this gets a chance to stick around.

FINALLY I find where the talk of American Horror Story is going on. I have been looking for this discussion for days! Hahaha! See what happens when I leave the site, I come back and it's all super organized! Nice!

Anyways... this show is so goddamned weird and I LOVE it. Are we keeping the talk vague to avoid spoilers for those who haven't seen it? What're the roolz?

You missed much kiddo. We had to categorize because we had 2 massive wipes of PAGES of threads. We start with categories and then some things graduate. Trying to keep the page count down.

The show was ok. It's kind of an icky slow burner but it has potential to be good dirty silly fun. No real rules...so far no strong opinions either. Feel free to discuss to your hearts content.

Just one thing I want to add:

If you wanna talk spoilers, let's do that. Just mark 'em as such.

Also, I really, really liked the first episode. Not very scary, but weird and ****ed up.

The one thing I didn't like was the seemingly generic storyline - damaged marriage, angsty kid, move to a new place to start over but the house has history, blah blah blah. Oh and the daughter would not stand out THAT much in this day and age's LA high school crowds. They made the school look like it was in OC. But I like how it's shot, and it's juuuuuust twisted enough, IMO, to override the generic bits. The maid! The ghostgimp! Jessica Lange and her creepy messages. They didn't waste any time getting into the oddities, either. Ghost baby! WTF! LOL

Yeah. I think the basic generic tropes are intentional. Have a feeling they are going to start from a real vanilla setup and just tweak the crap out of it. And yeah, even one episode in you can see just how far they are thinking of going. Gonna be tough to balance, don't want to go too far and blow the proverbial load, but I am pretty sure everyone who is watching this wants to be head f'd at least a little bit. They need a good wtf moment soon to get people really talking.
