American Horror Story

The problem with the new show "American Horror Story" is that it's not scary. It would be like calling a show "America's Funniest Home Videos", but the videos aren't actually funny, so therefore...

The director/writers seem to be trying out the method of jamming every single possible horror movie cliche into a one hour program. That is like trying to bake a cake with everything in your fridge & cupboards and then expecting it to be palatable. Actually, *THAT* would be more horrifying than this show.

Horror shows are hard to do. Despite people's complaints about the Walking Dead, i'm enjoying that show. This show, not so much.

I appreciate the attempt but so far, not so good.
