      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      AHS returns in frightening form with "The End," a wickedly fun -- if unfortunately witch-free -- premiere that's equal parts camp, chaos, and Sarah Paulson chewing scenery like no one else can.

      Valerie Anne Autostraddle This year seems to be living up to its promise to going back to the Coven/Murder House glory days. Sep 17, 2018 Full Review Dan Fienberg Hollywood Reporter If I had to describe this season's genre, it wouldn't be end-of-the-world horror. It would be The Simpsons parodies of end-of-the-world movies, as if a seven-minute "Treehouse of Horror" installment will be spread out over a season. Sep 13, 2018 Full Review Spencer Kornhaber The Atlantic This is broad satirical stuff, sure, but it's notable that the show's writers can't be bothered to reach past punch lines about our own world's fads of five years ago. Sep 13, 2018 Full Review Stephen Patterson What Culture Surprise, b*itch! American Horror Story is back with a vengeance. Sep 27, 2018 Full Review Kenneth Broome Black Nerd Problems I'm a bit more excited about this season, but a large part of that excitement comes from the fact that my personal favorite season from the franchise, Coven, will have my witches coming back to hopefully give me all the magic I need. Sep 18, 2018 Full Review Stephanie Archer Film Inquiry As amazing as this episode was, I did find myself more concerned with the things that I did not see - such as the cast members from Murder House and Coven. My hope for this crossover season is that they will not be confined to one or two episodes. Sep 15, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
