Just finished up with The Terror on AMC..damn good horror min-series..ending differs from the book slightly, but a satisfying conclusion nonetheless

Finished up Season 3 (Coven) on Monday. Not bad. Could have done without all of the Stevie Nicks stuff, but otherwise, still enjoying the show. Freak Show's next

I enjoyed the season finale of Killing Eve. Not super interested in carrying the plot into S2 though. Felt like they could've written 1-2 more episodes, tied everything up and then got on with another storyline which I could then have ignored with impunity. Though Luther did a similar thing and ended up only needing the first couple eps of S2 to finish the OG (good) story.
just a foil for me today, thanks

Oof, just finished the Freak Show season... big drop off. Kind of regret sticking with that season. Hopefully picks back up in the next.

Agreed. Lady Gaga did a great job in Hotel. I gave up on American Horror Story during the Roanoke season. Was last season any good?

Last season was interesting, but I liked Roanoke as well, so do with that what you will. I enjoyed the trump parallels and once I pushed my clown phobia down some, I liked the rest as well.

Thanks for the feedback. Last season was Cult. I don't remember even seeing any commercials for it. Is it about Trump or politics or what?

It was an amalgam of cult topics using politics as an overarching mega cult. They flashed back to multiple cultists (Koresh, Manson, Jones, etc) for short times and interweaved killer clowns into the whole thing. Really best to check out the first few episodes for yourself. It is pretty wild. Oh and there are lesbians.

S6 of Americans is pretty damn dope so far. I'm not going in that thread til I'm finished though.

I was thinking they should do an offshoot - Fear the Aemricans - told entirely from Henry's POV.
