Or if you don't like, don't watch. I really don't get this "hate watching" trend. I barely have enough time to keep up with the shows that I like, let alone the ones that I loathe. Some people just have too much free time on their hands.
As for complexity of plot and character, that's not really what I'm looking for in a horror movie. The majority, even the classics, don't have either. I'm just looking forward to a fun and wild ride!

Meh, I've never really bought that argument. I admit that Murphy and co's product fascinates me (as do fans who find his work genuinely groundbreaking.) So I do plan on at least watching the first few episodes. They interest me on several levels--I like some of the actors a lot, I think he (and Falchuk) are often good at setting up concepts and, yes, I find it oddly fascinating how inept their follow through is, and, yeah, I kinda like pointing out how his seemingly transgressive themes almost always ultimately seem to reinforce the status quo he claims to be fighting against. And while I can now see early signs of all of his problems in his early work like Popular and the first season or maybe two of Nip/Tuck, I genuinely was a fan.
Although, in hindsight I have no idea how or why I made it through all (I think?) of The New Normal.
