Asylum or Freakshow? Opinions please!
Which do you prefer and recommend??
shareI prefer Asylum. I was never a big fan of Freakshow and didn't even watch the entire season. It was visually appealing, but the storylines weren't great. It lost a lot of steam for me after a certain character was killed off too early. That being said, I prefer Murder House, Coven, and Hotel over both Asylum and Freakshow. That's a pretty unpopular opinion, but I thought Asylum was too political soapboxy against religion. All of the seasons have some political tone to it, but Asylum was the worst in that regard. I'm not even religious, and I thought it was a bit much.
shareAsylum is my favorite and Freakshow is my least favorite of the series. Asylum can be a little all over the place at times (the aliens) but in my opinion the characters are the most well written and likeable after watching them change over the course of the season. Lana is still my all time favorite AHS character. Freakshow was basically just a farewell to Jessica Lange season and in my opinion she had the least interesting and likable character that I didn't really enjoy watching. Once a certain character dies the momentum is lost as is the horror aspect of the season.
