For you American Horror Story fans, you know that each season has its own theme. This one is VERY political. With that being said it really grows on you.

I was reluctant to watch this season the moment I heard that it was going to be about politics. I also wasn't crazy about the last few seasons of AHS. However, "Cult" is very surprising. It takes an episode to get into but then it gets very exciting as you try to figure out whatl is going on. Just lots of crazy fun madness and definitely some good horror elements. It is reminiscent of Murder House in some ways (although less cozy and Halloweeny - sorry), and of the mystery elements of Asylum. You're really just figuring out who is what and why everything happens the way it does. AHS usually delivers a very satisfying finale and I am fully invested in this season, trusting them to wrap it up into a neat package in the finale.

I really wish this had been released on blu ray, it's one of my top 3 seasons of the show. Still, the random DVD mixed in with all of the seasons on blu ray looks like I suddenly became a cheapskate but it's essential. This is a must for any fan of the show. My only complaint is that Emma Roberts was only in one episode- her character was one of my all-time favorites on AHS.

Best Buy had a great sale on this show so I bought it to add to my collection. I watch shows with a less political angle to escape reality and this show tended to let it in. Again this is a quality show but it gets political and that was a slight negative for me.

I had a chance to really explore in depth of Network TV season. Political in nature, post 2016 election, but not overt. You will be glad to rewatch and it will boost it's AHS ranking in your mind.
