The fuck are they going to do for 4 episodes
I can see jingles break out Brooke to get revenge on Margaret but as for the ghosts, dunno what they'll do
Time travel might happen here?

This show loves it's ghost anchored to where they died trope. Feels very class AHS in a way. Wonder whats going to happen next.
Margaret saying Chet isn't a real boy
Potentially a gay character and Margaret viewed that as a sin or will this end up being some sort of Sleepaway Camp type reveal. Honestly, since we did not see him die he can still be alive
Oh hey, go me.
Though at one point i thought they were going to pull some kind meta-twist with Brooke being the actual real killer who was narrating the story and portraying herself as innocent, similar to how Margaret did.
While I'm enjoying this season, nothing about it seems... unique? I mean, Roanoke got a lot of hate for some reason, but it's most likely one my favorite seasons because: a. it's consistent (compared to other seasons) and b. it had a nice twist to it. 5 episodes later and I feel like there won't really be a big twist behind this. I remember reading all sorts of wild theories linking 1984 to surveillance, but nothing really points to that? I mean, it's still not over but I highly doubt that's the way it'll be. Also, is anyone else not tired of the whole ghosts stuck in a land thing?

According to TVLine, Sarah Paulson won't appear in this season at all, despite previous reports to the contrary.
Unfortunate, but the season's been good enough on its own right now it's not a big negative
shouldn't that be a spoiler as that concerns the future and maybe people dont want to know that? also, why look ahead and dig up info on a show's future events don't you like being surprised? also, since you seem to rate seasons alot, do you thinking digging up future info of a season during said season is hurting your rating of the season vs watching a season with no prior knowledge of anything going in (like most of us) and just riding out the journey and enjoying the highs and lows along the way?
Having watched this show from the very beginning I actually think this may be the best season, though I'm withholding judgement until it wraps.
Simple, straightforward and the 80's aesthetic has been amusing.

I actually really liked Roanoke though I think the first half was better than the second. Still one of the better seasons in my opinion.

Casting news isn't a spoiler, unless you're revealing specific character details - i.e. "Sarah Paulson plays the future version of Lady Gaga's ghost after she dies in episode 3!" Plus, most people already saw the report that she would appear in the season and have been expecting her to pop up at some point, so I thought it good to mention the clarification so people knew that the previous report was erroneous.
Casting info, especially for high profile shows, is front page news in the entertainment trades (and even sometimes in the regular news) so anyone who regularly browses them is going to see these announcements.

I can't believe she'd just let Leslie Grossman win... guess it's all up to Jingles now. Maybe he'll rescue Emma and they'll form a revenge squad.
I get the feeling she would've typically played Margaret. Not that Leslie isn't doing a great job in the role. She plays unhinged puritanical murderer very well.
I mean there's not a lot of « older » characters this season (yet). Can't really see her playing one of the counseler. ;)
Roanoke was actually scary, no other season I've seen has creeped me out like that one.
Me? I've watched every season live. So, 9 years?
This season is 80s horror movie based. That's not witches, or spells. It's psycho killer where maybe the one killer had supernatural strength, but he wasn't resurrected mid movie after having been killed. Though that's not even my issue with Ramirez - it's that it's not him. The timelines of his killings don't match up, he had awful teeth, he was a real person, etc.
The ghosts thing makes sense now after the latest episode.
1) all the seasons exist in the same universe. In this universe Satan exists and his power includes resurrection.
2) There is plenty of resurrection in 80s horror franchises.
There is resurrection in later awful Friday the 13th movies, but that's at the start of the movie. He's not just killed and brought back all the time.
You may say these all exist in the same universe but that's never been proven except for last season's tying of the witches back into the show. Much of the show is very segregated from other seasons outside of cast.
Michael Myers is effectively killed at the end of the first Halloween, takes 5 to the chest, but still gets up and walks away
There is clear supernatural shit going on with Jason by the second Friday the 13th film.
As for the seasons existing in the same universe here's a pretty good rundown:
Myers got shot. Ramirez, a real killer who went to jail, has his head shoved through a tree. That's not the same ballpark.
so your complaint is that American Horror Story is a little over the top? :P
lol. I'm ok with over the top, but it just doesn't seem plausible even for AHS. Why involve a real killer and just completely not go by his story? I'm fine with him being in Hotel because that's later on after he died.
You can pretty much assume Ramirez could show up in later seasons too. He's an incredible character, and I like that they treat him like a supernatural force here. The whole "swear to Satan" thing from episode 1 is something he did in real life too. But this being AHS, of course he's gonna have satanic powers that can resurrect him. While AHS has real killers here and there, the show never tried to be entirely based on the reality side. That's what makes it fun.

I hope they do a marathon of all the episodes before the finale. I just finished apocalypse and haven't seen any of this yet.

Thank god...
Brooke didn't die, was wondering where Donna went. Everyone converging on Camp Redwood, hope Margret gets hers.
I had a feeling Donna was the executioner and that they wouldn't kill off Brooke yet. Looks like everyone is converging on Camp Redwood and Margaret's days are numbered.

Honestly the best thing for Margaret would be for her to die at the camp. She can kill people for all eternity and get away with it.
lol yes, she's pretty rich now but incredible miserable. I figured Brooke wasn't going to die, but I forgot about Donna.
When they revealed what happened to Margaret I thought we were going to go off tangent but thankfully no time was wasted.

The episode was pretty fun, though I think I went in expecting more from the series' 100th episode. It was even called 'Episode 100' so I thought Murphy had something special planned, when instead it was just a regular episode of the show.
Well, nice to see that these fine gentlemen join me in recognizing how great AHS: Cult was.
