So season 1 is the high point of the show? Really?

You didn't like Coven? It was the only story outside of the first one that had enough meat to justify an entire season. Every AHS season starts great, but most of them end up degenerating into some stupid bull**** just because they need to fill out the episodes.

For me, its House > Coven > Freak Show > Hotel > Asylum. I've only finished House and Coven...I gave up halfway through the other seasons.

I hated Coven. It honestly felt like they realized the amount of teenage girls in their fan base and decided to make a product that pandered completely towards them. I have spoken to a few people who say they enjoyed it, but for the most part it seems to be the popular opinion that the show keeps getting worse and worse.

What, you guys serious? Season 1, 2 and 3 were all equally excellent. I couldn't get through Freakshow though, haven't watched Hotel or whatever it is called. But the new season seems cool so far.

Honestly, everybody I've talked to thought Asylum and Coven were the best ones, and they can never decide between the two. I thought this was the popular opinion.

Season 3 was trash? what really? it was so awesome. I think it's maybe because I love Wicca and witches so it was pretty great to me. What's wrong with having a female empowerment story anyways? You should watch Hotel at the very least and My Roanke Nightmare except for the first episode was super boring but what's going to be happening this season looks pretty decent.

With AHS being an anthology series, fans are so split on what they consider their favorites.

I loved House, Coven and thought Asylum as a step back but loved the last episode of it. Freak Show I finally made it all the way through and I'm not sure how I feel about the conclusion of it. It was alright I guess. The first time around I just stopped watching it midway through.

Hotel I stopped in the middle somewhere as well. I need to watch it just to see how it gets wrapped up and resolved. It was certainly better than Freakshow imo though.

House > Coven > Hotel > Asylum > Freakshow

Finished Season II of Gotham last night. Holy crap! If they'd tried to cram any more into the plot line the damn TV would have exploded. I've lost count of how many villains have been introduced so far.

Batty, you ARE watching this ****, right?

Spoiler for Spoiler:
The scene where Cobblepot and Butch show up to take out Azrael with the RFG was so damn bad ass I busted out laughing. The music they used while Azrael is blown to bits was so perfect for the mood of that moment. Loved how Butch waves bye and Alfred hesitantly returns the wave.

Spoiler for Found it:

Yup. About a week ago.
