What the hell was American Horror Story: NYC? Now in its eleventh season, the FX horror anthology series streaming on Binge in Australia. Over five weeks, I have no idea what I have been watching.
Another series created by Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk, it launched on October 19. Concluding with another double episode run this week. Over five weeks, two episodes a week Billie Lourd, Isaac Cole Powell, Zachary Quinto, Sandra Bernhard, Patti LuPone, Denis O'Hare, Leslie Grossman, and Rebecca Dayan starred in NYC.
New to the AHS family were Russell Tovey, Joe Mantello plus Desperate Housewives, Charlie Carver.
You can read a full recap of the finale, complete with spoilers HERE.
However to keep it brief this could have been the worst AHS thus far. I know a lot of people online were saying how emotional it was, how devastating it was. But really is that a horror story? It feels more like one of Ryan Murphy's true life series. Like Monster recently or an American Crime Story with maybe an American Health Story spin.
I may have missed something, however this just painted us gays (again) as sex hungry harlots who just chase either leather days or twinks around Fire Island or city streets.
Really hoping the American Horror Stories (if renewed) along with the next season of American Horror Story really lifts it's game.
