    “American Horror Stories” is another example of what feels like fumes being used to create a fire. The show is the entertainment equivalent of empty calories. It’s good enough to watch in the moment, but you’ll either leave feeling nothing, or with a nasty stomach ache.

    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. I would love to talk to the writers of this season cause it seems they are running out of steam, i dont think idea of AHS:stories is a bad one, but the acting isn't really doing it for me. The only people that really pulled me were Matt Bomer(Michael)/Kaia Gerber(Ruby)(at least for the first two episodes) so far, its been way too cheesy on a lot of the story and elements that make a show great. For American horror story this seems to be below standard like apocalypse. "all of our friends died, i shot a dude, burned his house down with him in in it. LETS ****" third episode writing summed up.

    Story:2-10(Third episode tanked it for me)
    Acting:3-10
    Cast:4-10
    Setting:4-10(recycled content kinda pulled me away from a better score)
    writing: (for AHS) 2-10    … Full Review »

    A reasonable start, but way too obsessed with the Murder House setting to go off and do its own thing.

    American Horror Stories has the same problems as most horror anthologies: It's hit or miss. Season 1 is mostly miss though.
