When the Director said this season would tie-into Asylum, I figured any links(aside from Pepper) would be rather subtle. Boy, was I wrong... They practically waved a neon flag in front of us that said: "Freak Show is a direct precursor to Asylum." Didn't expect that.
Anywho, I dug seeing Briarcliff Manor and Sister Mary Eunice again. 👆

Sister is having me start watching this show, and specifically wanted to watch Asylum with me. Seen the first two episodes.It's all right so far. Dr. Arden is clearly the best character and a role-model for children.
Dr. Arden was my fav character from Asylum lol. "WHOREEEEE"

This show almost made me throw-up, its cringe-worthy. When I think horror, I'm thinking... HORROR. Scary stuff, maybe a few jumpscares even, creepy music, creepy characters. Not a creepy environment. "Oh, look, we live on a circus cuz were freakshows and thats scary". Gimme a break .-.
If you want scary than Asylum is probably the way to go.
The show in general is mixing horror with good storytelling so it's not like a horror movie.
Well, it looks like "The Axeman" from last season might be featured in the next episode. If so, 3 seasons(ie. Asylum, Coven, and Freak Show) will now be tied together... mmm
