Lol. I think I'm out as well.

I bowed out midway through season 3 and haven't looked back. I do pop in on the thread to see how a season is going due to the anthology approach.

I heard they were altering the format a bit for the new season?

Season 4 Freak Show had a lot of issues but there were some good moments as well. Murder House is still the best season, IMO. I find it troubling that they are replacing Jessica Lange with Lady Gaga. If Lange wanted out, that's perfectly understandable, but the need to bring in Gaga as a replacement? Sarah Paulson always delivers great work since she started on Asylum. Let her and Evan Peters take the lead. Or Angela Basset. Or Kathy Bates To bring in someone like Gaga (not, strictly speaking, an actress, just someone with a lot of pop culture cred) seems like the show is going for the cheap thrill instead of a well rounded story.

I only got through the first 3 episodes of Freak Show. IMO the best season was Asylum, though that would have been better off without the demonic possession plotline, IMO.

I know so many people that think Asylum was the best season. I just had a hard time with it, mad scientist, aliens, angles and demons; I rank it as my least favorite! I loved Murder House and liked both Freak Show and Coven. Both had had their moments. One major issue I had with Freak Show, similar to Asylum there were holes that just didn't make sense.

Didn't Jessica Lange state from the beginning of the series she was only in it for 4 seasons? While I absolutely love her, her characters throughout have pretty much been the same. Ditto for Sarah Paulson.

Season 5 is Titled "Hotel" and will feature Lady Gaga.

LMAO

I haven't watched Season 4 despite originally having intended to. Now I don't intend to watch Season 5, but on the other hand I really want to see Gaga acting, lol.

I think Paulson may be out out because she's doing American Crime Story instead.

I liked Freak Show a lot, but I guess, Lange just wanted to play the same character over and over again. But Lady Gaga? That's is a tad bit too much horror for my taste - the bad kind of horror :ack:

So Freak show is worth watching? I watched the first 3 seasons and got 3 episodes into this season and kind of just forgot about it or whatever. How does it compare to the other seasons? It definitely had potential(that clown) and I was wandering if I should finish the season out.

Don't bother.
