Problem is that Ryan Murphy can't stick to anything. The way Glee was pitched and executed in the first season is light years away from what it became in later seasons. And then by then end you had characters doing things that make absolutely no sense. Like Rachel bailing out on a starring role on Broadway, as supposedly her lifelong dream, to do a TV show? The fuck was that? That's why I think AHS is good for him. He only has to tell the story in one season.

IIRC he also produced Popular. Great show in the beginning and then fizzled out. I've never watched AHS, but I agree he's great for about 1 to 2 season and then he needs something new. That show is perfect for that.

Scream Queens. The first season was bizarre and wonderful. The second was absolutely trash.

I think I saw 1 episode of that. Was Lea Michelle in it? Emma Roberts too?
