Season 10, Episode 2
10/10
Sucked In!
27 August 2021
American Horror Story started off as being one of my favorite shows of all time, but by the time Freak Show rolled around, I found seasons 4-7 to be very underwhelming. Starting with season 8, I've noticed that it has improved a ton!

I have to say, based on these first two episodes, this has the potential to be the best season yet! The atmosphere stays creepy, the actors are amazing, the pacing is perfect, and the music is fitting in every scene.

I pretty much predicted the ending of the second episode, but it was still executed perfectly. The final shot has me completely invested to see where this is going to go. It brings up so many topics and ethics we need to really think on sometimes.

The last time the show has been this good was Asylum, and honestly, this is an even better beginning than that season. Color me hyped for the new season. Despite the slump seasons in the middle of the series, it seems AHS is back and better than ever! It's about time. Maybe they needed the extra time off to really get this right. If you've fallen off the bandwagon over the years, maybe it's time to tune back in.
