TV show description:
Each season of this anthology horror-drama series is conceived as a self-contained mini-series.
The first season takes place in 2011 and follows the Harmon family — psychiatrist Ben (Dylan McDermott), wife Vivien (Connie Britton) and their teenage daughter, Violet (Taissa Farmiga). They move from Boston to Los Angeles after Vivien gives birth to a stillborn baby and Ben has an affair.
The Harmons move into a restored mansion and soon meet the home’s former residents, the Langdons. They are Constance Langdon (Jessica Lange), her two children — Tate (Evan Peters) and Addie (Jamie Brewer) — and the disfigured Larry Harvey (Denis O’Hare).
Ben and Vivien try to rekindle their relationship, as Violet, suffering from depression, finds comfort with Tate. The Langdons and Larry frequently influence the Harmons’ lives, as the family discovers that the home is haunted by the ghosts of its former residents.

What do you think? Do you like the American Horror Story TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for another season?
It should be canceled. Last season is a disgrace.
It’s innovative and creative. it says at the beginning of every episode, that there is graphic sexual content, language and violence – so what are these whiny right wingers screaming about? The 700 club still prays & preys 24 hrs a day .. on another channel.
The best AHS yet was coven it made sense and it was awesome, couldn’t wait to see it each week. I need some more coven give me some witches, warlocks , demons, vampires, werewolves. HORROR STORIES!!!!!!! not pig heads !!!!!
Last season was boring !!!!!!! All of the other seasons were great. Dont like Lady Gaga—–The last season was built up , but did not satisfy…It was like the Blair Witch Project, that I hated—-Seems like they did it cheaply—-Give us a new great season
This series is Great! It’s well written, has a spectacular cast… Especially Sarah Paulson and every series are entirely different from one season to the next. I also like the fact that they’re hard to predict how each season will end. Bravo!!
Renew American Horror Story. It’s so well written, casted & the special effects are fantastic! I love this show!
The seasons are not really doing anything for me. Best seasons 1-3. The rest not really great.
Best season yet. Actually quite scary and creepy.
I’m just now streaming season five, Hotel, and find it a disappointment compared to earlier seasons. How many neck slashes with gushing blood does one need to show in detail before it becomes in bad taste. Hotel is more gore than horror with characters I don’t care for, except for perhaps Kathy Bates’ character. Season two about the abusive mental institution was more horror, what is more horrifying than being locked up in a sadistic place and no one knowing it. Hopefully season 5 and 6 turn it around and become more horror and less gore or it’ll get dumped… Read more »
love this show!
Last season pushed the limits of horror to pure thrash. The overt sexuality was sickening in its graphical content. Even the previous season had pushed it too far, but Hotel was just pure thrash and should have been rated ***. If this next series goes any further than last season then I’ll send complaints to the FCC that pornographic content is being aired on this channel. There’s a difference in horror stories and poor taste, you keep it it at least on the level of season one. Leave it there.
John T be a big boy and turn it off. Why control what other people watch? Believe me – NO ONE cares what you watch ..
The talent and creativity in this show is out of this world!!!!!!! I miss Jessica Lane but Lady Gaga did pretty good as well.
This is a totally stand alone series that clearly had inspiring effects on other creators. I’ve watched from the beginning and aside from some (sex) things that really have no relevance to the story, I was thoroughly impressed with the creative uniqueness. So pertaining to season 5, I just have to ask, what happened? There aren’t enough words to express my sincere disappointment regarding the lack of imagination, seriously bad acting skills (aside from Kathy Bates), the disgusting gore and poor story line not to mention it was like watching a snuff film. Not one single character was likeable nor… Read more »
Jessica Lange made the show.
Its, just not that good without Jessica Lange.
