This is definitely the worst of all seasons so far…
This season started off very strong, we get to see amazing performance from Evan Peters as Kai and great representation of a great leader, but when the things are going great we get to last episode [spoiler] and this story ends like any others, but of course "evil white man" can't win. What I took from end of this season is men bad women good. It would be better to let Kai win, because he had solid few points throughout the season. [/spoiler]
I've noticed all the low reviews say they're "not into politics". If you actually follow politics, and I don't mean being brainwashed by Fox News and their alternate reality programming, this season is truly gut-wrenching horror. I'd probably puke if I watched this again before the 2024 election. Hopefully we can turn the page on the dark period of division and hate. This season is terrifying accurate about how American politics had shifted to something unrecognizable and literally good vs evil. If you were "bored" and missed the point of this season, then you're a perfect example of the saying "ignorance is bliss".
The first American Horror Story season without supernatural entities has a lot of hard-to-believe moments but was enjoyable nonetheless. This show always starts mildly interesting, gets addicting mid-season with the mysteries unfolding, and then drags on for five/six more episodes taking weird turns and questionable outcomes. This season kind of follows the same structure but manages to keep well-balanced until the end. The pacing falls a bit once most of the questions get answered, but unnecessary historical digressions aside, I was quite satisfied. The political moral sounded a bit cheap, but I wasn't expecting anything profound anyway. Getting a bit sick of Evan Peters and Sarah Paulson getting the same kind of roles every time, but I guess that's what people want?
I'm a fan of the AHS seasons but this one... Ugh This season is the most boring of all. I caught myself doing other things all the time while I watched. I am happy when I have finished the season. I'm not really into politics, maybe it's because of that. But the acting is great, some disturbing and bloody scenes, that's why 3 ❤️
