Ah Kathy Bates, I love seeing her in American Horror Story, it brings joy into my heart. Although it saddens me they never use her for a truly SCARY role. We all know she's capable of playing it (don't make her hobble you). I didn't like her so much in Freak Show but in Hotel her character... I'm not sure if it's the parallels to my own mother and my situation but her role just brought tears from me. Lady Gaga? Why so much crap given towards her, I think her acting was great and her role as a vampire is fitting to her image. If I were to make a negative remark or two, I'd say her harem thing and just how much sex was thrown into this season felt forced. Like they wanted to shock you with sex so here's a bunch of sex, aren't you shocked? I wasn't, I didn't really care. I also thought that them just out of NOWHERE making... well I won't spoil it... making one of the characters the killer just. They just threw it at you in a single episode, and yes I guess it makes sense but they didn't give you enough buildup before slamming you over the head with it. Everything else? Loved it. Best season of AHS yet, makes up for how dreadful Coven was, and Freak Show while not bad did not flesh out the potential it had. This worked from start to finish, and my god did I love Liz too.
