    This is my first attempt at watching American Horror Story, and boy is it an f'ing cheese-fest.

    Complaints:

    1. I gave it a shot based on the theme. Visually it could be stunning- but they're just kind of tossing it away.

    2. The dialogue may be the worst of any show I've seen of late. Many laugh out loud moments that kill whatever is going on... and I don't think it's supposed to be comedic. The writing is just that bad.

    3. Acting is about as poor as it gets on TV other than Sarah Paulson and the old lady.

    4. They somehow made a scary clown seem more goofy than creepy... quite a feat.

    5. The score. Terrible. It never matches what's happening in the scenes. Often, the score is ramping up- trying to set a scary mood while nothing even remotely intense is happening on screen.

    6. Random karaoke show with Fiona Apple. Continuity... who needs it? All for being creative, but this was just stupid.


    I feel watching it was a comedy may help. Giving it one more episode before giving up on it.

    With that laundry list of complaints perhaps you should just throw in the towel now. Seriously doubt your opinions on the writing, acting, and score are going to dramatically change in the coming weeks.

    Most likely not, but giving it a fair chance.

    Maybe a plot line will arrive.

    I was indifferent. I really didn't mind that it was clearly a 90's song. This is fantasy after all.

    The mosh pit was a bit much though.

    I wanted to watch PB but haven't yet. That'll cement it for me.

    Agreed. The motorcycle fight scene...not so much.

    But that grab and shoot move was pretty epic.

    Nope, serious. Finished the rest of S2..great climax. Started S3 with the pathetic CW app but gave up halfway through 1st episode. Good to see Felicity finally getting the meat she so richly deserves.
