"Why did they go ahead and let Elsa do the Halloween show after they discovered she had violated her morals clause?"

Because it was such fun to play and she so trusts Ryan?

"No one here predicted it."

My guess is that's because who is going to imagine that they will just wipe out half the characters you've come to care about because it's the last episode and they can't think of anything else to do with them?

This season was one long bore- It did have some high points for me - The Cover of 'Gods and Monsters', Patti LaBelle, Finn Wittrock. But it was still boring.

Well the actors clearly love it because its fun-its big, its provocative, its gross, and the costumes and characters are fun. Im sure its a cool challenge. They don't have give a rat's ass if it makes sense.

Every actor's talent was squandered this season and Lange wore out her welcome IMHO. I look forward to next season-hopefully they re-invent themselves without her.

When you have actors like Paulson and Bates, you really need to use them.

Yes. And less is more. Am I the only one that found the inclusion of NPH and Burtka annoying and out of nowhere?

I dont even know where to start with how awful this is/was.

I know they've said they're "reinventing" the show next season do I'm hoping that means they'll actually attempt to make it scary or at least suspenseful. But I highly doubt it.

It was a world in which having your legs chopped off and being left for dead violates a morals clause.

Murphy is trying to make friends with the gay power couple-that is why they were included. For the record, Burtka has 10x the talent of NPH.

"I'm hoping that means they'll actually attempt to make it scary or at least suspenseful."

I'd settle for coherent and interesting.

That's asking a lot for a show with a creator who had the attention span of a 6 month old.

Glad I tuned out after the first episode. Sounds like it became the usual mess...

I'm just so happy everyone went to heaven in the end and lived there happily ever after. Such a sweet ending to a series with the word "horror" in the title.

Mark my words, that whole final episode was just Jessica Lange's audition for "Hedwig" when JCM leaves.

Am I misremembering that the first flash forward we saw was Sarah Paulson and Sarah Paulson's head and torso floating in a big jar in the Freak Museum?

Somehow they were still alive and with all they had going against them anatomically, happily pregnant at the end.

I always wondered what their bodies must look like since clothed they're built like a linebacker. Did they say where they were connected? The first episode seems like years ago.

What a sh**y finale. I don't think any of this season made any sense. Totally unsatisfying. I will say, I love Jessica Lange. She's a brilliant actress even with this material.

I wish she took on a better drama. I'd watch her in anything.
