Loving the teaser. Didn't saw LG act, except that one Sopranos scene.
ReplyDeleteShould be fun.
Love the Hotel thing, I assume there will be a lot of guest stars coming and going.
Make it a Haunted Hotel and I'm in !!!
ReplyDeleteShe is playing leading lady, so she is kinda replacing her
ReplyDeletebut they will definitely gain new viewer with Lady Gaga... Smart move actually...
ReplyDelete:(
ReplyDeleteI will give this 2-3 eps but the last 2 season have been horrible
ReplyDeleteI hope it's as good as 666 Park Avenue. That was a decent show.
ReplyDeleteThis is going to make tumblr break and stop functioning. Im not against the idea of her having a role but being the leading character...not so sure.
ReplyDeleteThis casting is intriguing. Visually, it is a fit, we'll have to see about the acting.
ReplyDeleteSo Gaga's going to get the musical number this season then right?
ReplyDeleteI feel like Murphy wants to slowly turn AHS into Glee lol.
ReplyDeleteWell I can definitely see her being the hotel's entertainment/show if she is going to be singing... I am all for it... Don't see the hate for the singing in Freak Show... It was the only way to get the actual show part into it and was crucial to Elsa Mars backstory
ReplyDeleteIt's not just a Hotel. I heard it's set during the time of Mordrake, so it's more like turn of the century. Could be interesting. I used to like Gaga till she hooked up with Bennet.
ReplyDeleteI love this!!! Can't Wait!!! I am not sure about the theme though, I'll wait till more news comes in because what does a top hat have anything to do with hotel? I hope Sarah, Francis, Angela, and of course Jessica, come back somehow... Please no more Kathy, Evan or Taissa
ReplyDeleteShe has a background in theater, which she went to school for a while, and she's had small parts in a couple of movies... The video for Marry the Night shows aspects how she left school for music
ReplyDeleteWaiting for Ryan Murphy to confirm this on twitter...Hotel doesnt sound that interesting..
ReplyDeletestar or guest-star?
ReplyDeleteIm 100% with you on this! I was just saying to my husband that Murphy ruins everything he creates after the first season. Adding the in the musical numbers to AHS wrecked the show, they were completely unnecessary & never served to progress the story lines. The worst of it is EVERY season since Asylum started out as amazingly promising & then after 4-5 episodes its like the writers completely forgot (or Murphy overides) where they were going with the plot(s) & it turns into a bizarro broadway/variety hour that makes everyone cringe at the awkwardness instead of in fear.
ReplyDeleteI agree with everything. Also the show is no longer "horror" thanks to all the new fans that appear during Coven and complained every time something even a little bit scary happened.
ReplyDeleteShe will be a series regular
ReplyDeleteI don't want Frances, Angela or Kathy to return if they are not given proper material.
ReplyDeleteSeries regular doesn't mean guest star. It means she'll be a main character. Not necessarily the main character, but a main character.
ReplyDeleteA haunted hotel??
ReplyDeleteI don't hate Gaga, but I hope this won't mean another silly/fashion season like Coven.
Just hoping that this season would be better than the last two,that's all!
ReplyDeleteFor a moment I thought she'll be part of Scream Queens. Excited about this, I guess I'll have to binge watch all seasons.
ReplyDeleteSeries regular means main actor, not guest star. For example, last season series regulars were Jessica Lange, Evan Peters, Emma Roberts etc. While, NPH & Matt Bomer were guest stars.
ReplyDeleteYaaaasssss Gaga oh my god yasssss you look so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHa, if they don't do a tribute to that video I'll be so disappointed.
Every season is a different story and characters so you don't need to watch the previous season. Still S1 and S2 are pretty good.
ReplyDeleteWhile I'm far from being her biggest fan, I do think she is very talented so, I have good faith she'll do great.
ReplyDeleteHowever there is no way anyone can convince me this isn't Ryan Murphy making a populist casting decision...
You don't really have to. Each season stands on it's own...
ReplyDeleteI was hoping this was a lame April Fools joke...if this is who we're left with, taking over Jessica Lange's spot - then I kindly refuse to watch the new season. Freakshow was mediocre already. Hotel, seriously? I really have no idea if I'l be tuning in.
ReplyDeleteHas anyone found the clues in Freak Show that were hunting towards Hotel as the next setting?
ReplyDeletewow, freak show was my 2nd fave so far, definitely different folks different strokes.
ReplyDeleteNope. The only clue Ryan told us was the little hat that was on Maggie's mug when she was in a police car in episode 2 or 3.
ReplyDeletesmart move for the show AND gaga herself, who's especially smart after her successful oscar stint. benefits all around tbh. and Jessica lange is not leaving completely, she's just not lead anymore which will be a refreshing change tbh
ReplyDeletedoesn't really matter that the ratings are down, some seasons just skew older, like freak show and asylum which are more mature and insightful imo. esp, when you compare AHS ratings to what's left on FX, you'll know that AHS will be safe and sound as long as RM wants it to go on
ReplyDeletebinge watch is the way to go for freak show, i didn't watch regularly, bc i had exams on, but binged it recently, and it was a fantastic season. However, I can tell that if i watched weekly some eps would not do it for me, but when watched in a row, it's great
ReplyDeleteyeah and singing/performing was def more relevant to freak show, than stevie nicks was to coven, THAT was irrelevant. Freak show was sublime imo
ReplyDeletethey just need a flashier name that's all
ReplyDeletes2 and s4 are definitely binge seasons, you'll enjoy those more if you binge it. S1 and S3 are alright if you watch weekly
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't say "replacing," actors in AHS come and go... this doesn't necessarily means Gaga will be the lead actress. Maybe she'll just show up once in a while, like Adam Levine and Stevie Nicks.
ReplyDeleteIt has NOT been confirmed that she is playing the LEAD. All that has been confirmed is that it will take place in upstate new york, a tophat JS an arcane clue, it has a subtitle known as hotel(but that will not be the name of season five..or last year they said the subtitle was carnival..and then changed it to freakshow)..they have said there are 3 characters written so far..Elle, Danny and Carla. Carla is the lead between 20-30 years old and is a confident woman..Elle is a ghost who is 20-30 years old..and Danny is 20-30 year old bartender at the hotel who struggles with alcohol issues and is in love with Carla. They have said that jessica Lange, sarah Paulson and Emma Roberts are most likely NOT returning however Kathy bates most likely will, along with evan peters and possibly finn Whittrock! They have aall said that a ghost from the 1920a will be haunting the hotel..LG will be one of the main supporting actress' but I highly doubt she will take on the lead role in only her 4th appearance axting
ReplyDeleteHere's how I would write it, including setting and cast:
ReplyDeleteNew York City during the height of the Roaring Twenties
Lady Gaga- Wealthy heiress, daughter of the hotel owner. Lives in the penthouse.
Denis O'Hare- Gaga's father, hotel owner. He's a mobster and using the hotel to launder money/facilitate bootlegging.
Kathy Bates- O'Hare's wife,
Michael Chiklis- Hotel Manager, ties to O'Hare and his mob
Finn Wittrock- Innocent bellhop. One of the main heroes of the story
Angela Bassett- Maid
Evan Peters- Private detective drawn to the hotel after a murder
Sarah Paulson- a writer researching the hotel for her novel and staying at the hotel indefinitely until the novel's completion
Cycle in the rest of the regulars as hotel guests throughout. Maybe even have 1 surprise episode with Jessica Lange in a minor role.
It is, reportedly.
ReplyDeleteI think this is a smart move. She has a storng acting background & brings a lot of freakiness I think AHS needs again. Let's just hope they don't mess this season up like the last. HOTEL is an amazing story theme & let's hope they bring back flashback stories like Murder House!
ReplyDeleteSo true! Let's hope HOTEL brings back horror story flashbacks like Season 1!
ReplyDeleteSeason 1&2 were the best! True horror story lines, where as Season 3&4 had huge potential but missed the mark. If they bring it back to its roots with a similar structure of Season 1, this could be an amazing season!
ReplyDeleteI gotta say, that sounds good to me. I'm really hoping that, if they bring back Finn Wittrock, they will make him a good guy/hero, since he played such an evil person last season.
