The show is too pretentious and sadistic

The show is called American
Horror
Story. This is his take on modern horror, which in its self usually involves a lot of "shock" elements. As someone mentioned, bad things happen to everyone.
I do agree that there are past inconsistencies that make you wonder if there were too many hands in the pot when it came to writing, but so far this season seems to be getting back on track, sticking to a consistent plot. -

I kind of agree too, especially the part about 'shock' elements. This show is lousy with them and it seems like it's all about shock value over genuine horror and fear. I can only speak for myself here, but I've never found AHS to be 'scary', but maybe that's because I've become so desensitized by horror in general with all the scary movies I've watched growing up. The stuff on AHS is horrifying to watch and definitely disturbing but not scary and doesn't keep me up at night with the lights on. It's been a while since any movie or tv show has been able to have that effect on me. I'm sure this show scares
some
people though
