I binge watched American Horror Story season 2 over the weekend. I really enjoyed season 1 but I don't know how to feel about season 2. It seems like they tried to do every horror movie cliche in the book and tie it all into one story. You have....

1) Serial Killers
2) Insane doctors performing experiments
3) Demonic possessions
4) Alien abductions

It just seemed to be a disjointed mess at times and not as good as season 1. What is the board's take on it? Also, I have season 3 recording on DVR is it better/worth it?

season one - legit as frick horror series
season two - crazy as frick horror series, more fun than season one, but not as good
season three - I'll reserve judgement until it's over

I finished it last night and I have to say the final scene with Sister Jude and Lana Winters didn't make a lot of sense to me. I guess they were trying to convey that both of them were evil all along or something?

Almost everyone's complaint... Too many fricking storylines going at once.

I've said before, if they dropped the Alien angle, and kept all of the other storylines, they should have done 2-3 seasons based around the Asylum. It would have been much better.

Yeah the alien's angle and demonic possession didn't really go together. Also, they never really explained what the doctor was doing to those patients living in the woods. I would have liked to see more about that.

my exact words to describe it on here. but i thought it more a beautiful mess. disjointed as hell but i thought it was fun to watch. and i'm also one of the few that liked the ending better than season 1's ending which is the only really weak part of season 1.

Those are my views. S1 was legitimately scary. S2 had a lot of potential but they squandered it. And I'll wait till the end of S3 to give my verdict; it could either be more like S1 or end up disjointed like S2; we'll see.
