"American Horror Story: Coven" — What did you think?

[skatalite]

Season three of "American Horror Story," "Coven," premiered tonight. This season is about witches, witchcraft, witchery, and so on and so forth.

I really enjoyed the premiere. I like the overall tone the season seems to be taking. And I'm completely excited that Kathy Bates joined the cast.

What did you think? Are you a fan of the show, overall?

DVR - will watch it today - 10 pm too late for me.

I loved it!

I hope they really get into some of the mythology of witchcraft and not just try to make it "scary" or "shocking". I feel like that was my problem last season. They tried too hard.

I was happy to see some old faces, but not happy with some them dying right away....


I am happy with the cast additions; I am thinking Angela Bassett will be kicking, Kathy Bates will be yummy.....I am thinking that many high quality actresses who have been passed over for movies based on a more mature age will be enjoying a resurgence of popularity.

Emma Roberts is an interesting addition, but Gabby seems like a logical choice to me for some reason. Gabby has less experience in acting then Emma, but I think she has won more awards for her acting.

I love this series and the shifts that occur with each series. Makes me happy

I loved it! Kathy Bates was fantastic! Jessica Lange is always "supreme" , and it was nice to see Taissa Farmiga again. I'm not a huge Emma Roberts fan, but I thought she did a good job and I loved Gabourey Sidibe's special power. It felt like an all-girl's evil Hogwarts to me.

Those that died (are we allowed to talk specifics on this thread?) are listed in the opening credits so I think we will be seeing more of them. It seems like there is a definite undercurrent of "resurrection" this season.

I was also thrilled to see Addie back on the show and thought she did a great job with her new role.

I loved the whole New Orleans setting and was very excited to see Kathy Bates and Angela Basset -- the group dynamic of the girls was fun as well!

Wanted to watch this year but I missed it last night. It's not ON Demand nor are they repeating it before next week. Darn!

I bought it on Amazon Instant Video for $1.99

So happy to see they are sticking with a tighter script this year. Last year, while good, had too many story lines.

 

[chellewashere]

I was so excited to see so many of the old cast in the first show. Last year they spread them out so I enjoyed watching trying to remember who everyone had played in the first and second season.

I agree everyone will be coming back from the dead. "Make your own boyfriend" and all like that.

So far I am loving it and cant wait for next week!!!

Loved it! I think I'm going to particularly love the relationship between Kathy Bates and Jessica Lange. Of course JL would have chemistry with a doorknob, she is just so awesome. It was also nice seeing the more intimate interaction with the cast members and not stand alone stories, like last year.

I knew in the first 5 minutes it was going to scare the pants off me. The whole bull head thing sort of clinched it for me. I had a difficult time taking my 2 dogs out alone in the dog park behind my building for their final potty... it was dark and creepy! I may have to make my husband stay up on AHS nights from now on

I loved it! I'm not a fan of Emma Roberts but I hope they do more with Gabourey Sidibe. Addy was great as well

I am worried that Gabourey will not be around for long. Her name is not in the opening credits.

Finally watched it. Loved it!! Can't wait for next week. Just gotta remember to set the DVR. It was kind of hard to watch in the beginning.

I am worried that Gabourey will not be around for long. Her name is not in the opening credits.

I saw it her name in the opening credits. I had no idea she was in it until the opening credits

Oh, excellent! I confess that I hadn't checked myself. I read an article that said both she and Angela Bassett were not listed. I am glad to hear that Gabuorey, at least, was there.

I liked it, but found the opening to be super disturbing. I'll keep watching, but not right before bed so I don't have nightmares!
