Great Again

I think it's awesome that the pilot episode of this season was what finally killed Charles Manson. However, I believe Evans character was based more upon Waco with a bit of Manson, Jones, etc. thrown in. Even more upsetting is having any form of entertainment go far beyond a bit of political satire (which is perfectly fine and expected from comedy shows typically such as Laugh-In, SNL, Fridays, Second City TV, and any others I might have missed) HOWEVER this entire season was nothing but more Hollywood attempting to continue its mission of. Rainwashing by insisting that Trump is evil and Hillary is not. Handled differently by a different show...THAT premise would be historically funny! But on top of Hollywood's insistence that anyone watching movies or TV MUST be exposed to homosexual lifestyles and intimate sexual moments. And before anyone complains about my 'narrow mindedness'. I have no need or desire to see anyone having intercourse, full frontal nudity, and all those other pointless skin scenes thrown in just to get the actor more money, and the director a 'reputation', and to push the envelope of what is NEEDED to make an excellent piece of entertainment. I'm no prude and enjoy heterosexual relations whenever possible, but I grew up in the decades from 1960-1980 that saw the rise of public pornography to Heorge Carolina famous sentence about the SEVEN words you can't say on TV. However, although the words he mentions are mostly now permitted. There are far MORE words that can not be said on TV because of all the nonsensical and idiotic ideas of this new thing called Political Correctness. Now THAT is what's TRULY obscene.

This season was nothing but another of propaganda exhibits since season 5 with Hotel. Now that the wonderful Jessica Lange returning to the show might help it recover from how far it has strayed from being a season of different horrorific situations from Murder House thru Freak Show. Supposedly, this new season will be a tie in or tie together multiple seasons that CAN be tied together in a well thought out manner. For example...Asylum has Pepper, then we see her again in Freak Show as well as how Elsa Marrs found her and added her to her troupe. Will something like that be tied together somehow? Not sure since the years shown don't quite match up. UNLESS Asylum chronologically comes after Freak Show which was set in the 1950s. If yes, that means Pepper was rescued from the orphanage by Elsa, did her time with Elsa and the Show. But then after that ended Pepper somehow wound up in an Asylum in NY in the 1960s and hasn't aged a day. Just as long as this new season isn't more politically motivated crap as in the last few seasons.

Kai is imprisoned and has already several violent followers. When the weak and coward Trevor Geary asks to join his crew, he swears loyalty to Kai and hears why Kai was arrested. He is preparing his cult to kill one hundred pregnant women, when Ally brings the FBI to arrest his cult. The lesbian Ally now has a new girlfriend, Erika, and is preparing Oz's birthday party. Now Ally decides to run to be Michigan's senator. She schedules a debate with Senator Herbert Jackson. Meanwhile, Kai escapes from prison and heads to kill Ally during the debate.

"Great Again" is a milestone of "American Horror Story", since this episode marks finally the end of the awfullest season of this series. The short storyline was extended along eleven episodes, using sex, violence and stupid scenes to prolong it. The last episode has several plot holes. For example, how the physically weak would join strong criminals in prison using his blah, blah, blah. Prison is on another level. Why and how did Gloria meet Ally before the debate? How could Ally trust that Kai would pick the gun offered by Gloria? My vote is three.

Title (Brazil): "Great Again"

Season 7 - Cult

Unexpected

The most original and unpredictable season so far. The first few episodes I was on the verge of giving up. It balanced on the edge of boring and I thought it was a cheap horror that totally misses the mark, but soon it turned out that my premature conclusions totally missed the mark and that there was something much more complex before me, which would not have occurred to me.

Under the guise of a silly horror cliché, the stage was set for an excellent social satire with phenomenal characterization and constant unexpected twists. Although it is not horror in the classic sense of the genre, this season is a mirror of the horror in which we live. "Cult" delivers a story that is fundamentally strong and impressive and I can't wait to see if the writers manage to surpass her in the following seasons.

8,5/10.

Ally Mayfair (Sarah Paulson) tries to move on with her life after Donald Trump wins the elections. But their fears are coming back to life when a cult starts a real massacre with political reasons.

No one was expecting a lot of this season after the announcements that it were given to promote the show, it seems to be a very political season. And yeah, it may be deeply a political commentary about fear but it's also a lot more. This season is by far one of the best seasons of the show. The cast is great and the two leading characters played by Evan Peters and Sarah Paulson are stunning, they gave an Emmy worthy performance.

The horror in this season is realism, it doesn't have supernatural creatures and that makes the season better, if you die here, you won't come back, never. There are stakes at risk in this season and the twists and turns shock me. This is a good season.

The only problem I got with this season is the ending. I felt that it was a little bit rushed, but it was a great season after all.

The highlights on the acting department this season are Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Leslie Grossman, Adina Porter and Billie Lourd. This season gets 9 out of 10

Ryan Murphy used to be a great writer and director. I was an early adopter of Nip/Tuck and appreciated his audacity to put on TV things most people squirm at.

However, like Nip/Tuck & even Glee, AHS has devolved into Murphy's agenda platform and everything suffers. The writing, the characters, even the "shock" has steadily dissolved into the Murphy has an ax to grind show. It's his show, he can do what he wants. But it's been all down him from Murder House. Wildly disappointed with the same old shtick. If you look at the review demographics, the only people rating AHS highly are the under 's who still think this kind of stuff is "edgy".

If you've seen one season of AHS, you know how this one ends. Hopefully it's the last time we have to settle for this tripe.
