The way AHS seemed to be setting things up in the first season, it almost felt like they were going to do a second season in the same house, only with a new family, and potentially new flashback references to older events kind of , which could have been cool. I kind of like that idea, but it would have been extremely limiting. And I did almost get that vibe from the ending of the first season where they tease things. ParanoidObsessive posted... The show may have evolved in that direction (especially once viewers started dropping off), but it was never the original intention. They went out of their way to emphasize how unrelated the seasons were after the first one ended - probably because they didn't want people constantly complaining about how the second season sucked because they couldn't see how it related to the first at all. The second season had a much better reception. And, again, the casting changed significantly between seasons 1 and 2... and I guess the same is kinda true of seasons 2 to 3. Evan Peters starts as a supporting character with a lot of screen-time in s1, he becomes a lead in s2, he goes back to a supporting character in 3, and then becomes a lead again in 4. ParanoidObsessive posted... But in a way, if they ARE related, that's even worse - because then it establishes that there are multiple characters all living in the same universe that are physically identical to each other and who are tangentially related to events in some way. My suspension of disbelief has long since left the building by that point, and is hitching a ride to the bus station in the car driven by my ability to give a shit. ...in the case of the connections, it's more a matter of actors reprising the same role. And so far the only time that's happened, it involved an actor who hadn't played anybody else that season. That said, I'm actually excited by the prospect of the real linking season -- Apocalypse -- because it ties together important elements from season 1 and was the biggest reason why I bothered watching season 1. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| <cite>Aaantlion posted [p:925782086] in Valley of ...
