Lol Roanoke is in my top three. I love that whole switch of tv show perspectives halfway through. I LOVE THE BUTCHER! more-so how Kathy Bates reality tv character is obsessed with being the butcher. I also really like the episode of freak show where Jessica Lange covers Lana's Gods and Monsters. Everybody gets mad at me when I rate asylum in the bottom three lol.
I completely agree, the plot twists, the documentary style first half, Kathy Bates as the Butcher, how can you go wrong? I enjoyed it, in my top five. It definitely had some super creepy scenes too

You have excellent taste. 😊Similar to my top five, Coven, Hotel, Roanoke, Asylum, Murder House. Apocalypse was close for number five spot, but I had to include the one that started it all, but watching this , I'm rethinking if making it number five.
roanoke has the most captivating and maybe the most promicing opening of a season for me personally. hotel was a pretty hard watch as a first time, but jumping right into roanoke after this was SO refreshing. Documentary vibes, actual american history and probably the scariest atmosphere. the saddest part of all that was the disrupt progression of things (especially ending) and, probably, the way it was treated by the viewer it was that close to become a great season
i'm a relative apocolypse apologist and think it gets way too much hate, but ranking it above so many seasons including 3 out of 4 golden era seasons is crazy and my mouth dropped lol. i respect your opinion i just never thought people like that season so much including myself, i just think the writing is really messy and filled with plotholes and has bad fan service at times, and brought back so many characters and resolve so many things just reverse time in the end. it also felt hard to get in the story when combining season characters (example: madison montgomery interacting with and not recognizing constance langdon and violet) but i loved certain episodes and i still rather watch that season over certain fan favorites and think people hate on it way too much.
I liked it as well, not in my fave five, but much better than some. I love AHS and I re-watched many seasons numerous times. Roanoke is in my top five and nobody seems to have enjoyed it.
@@k8elizabeth436 I don’t get the complaints either. Whenever someone says “plot holes,” and I’m like girl that’s in every season of AHS. Some seasons exist in a plot hole
@@danielrubinstein896 every season is all over the place. This felt like controlled chaos and very much like a collection of all things AHS. Asylum had just as many side plots, same with Coven.

I haven’t seen double feature, NYC or Delicate. I had somewhat fell out of love with the series. I may check back in for these three seasons I’ve missed after this breakdown. Great video 😁
Double feature threw me all the way off! When it went from red tide to death valley. I went back and asked myself, " am I tripping?, Did I miss something"? They definitely should've kept red tide
I dont blame you for rating Apocalypse so high. There is a lot to love despite its problems. My biggest gripe is the forced relationship between ms meade and michael. They tried too hard to make him sympathetic where they couldve taken more time with themurderhouse crossover and the warlock school (which also could've used some recasting).
Hotwl just takes you in, the vampire concept is really well developed, characters are AMAZING and the hotel is just stunning. I wish they didnt include 10 commendmend killer at all tho
I have the unpopular opinion that Wes Bentley is a god awful actor haha. Just never liked the brooding whisper acting some guys too, and he’s maybe the biggest offender. It’s always so boring and lifeless too, which does not work for a main character. That aside, I love the hotel itself, the eras, the old Hollywood vibe, Liz Taylor and Mr March.
The characters were the best, even better than Coven's. Hypodermic Sally,, the Countess, , Liz Taylor, Donovan and the other handsome sexy men. I enjoyed the plot , but I think they tried to do too much with it, some of the sub plots didn't go well.
I loved Cult though I’m British so I think I viewed it in a different sense to an American. I thought Kai’s character was so chilling, the use of fears really got me too but I am an extremely anxious individual with ocd so I think maybe it worked for me
@@EJMoreno honestly first watch - I hated it! But then I got my partner into the show and as I watched it with them I realised it’s actually quite a cool twist on the stuff you’d usually see from AHS
I liked Cult when it came out but loved it once I rewatched. It’s definitely in my top 5. Something about the on the pulse nature of the narrative works for me. I loved that the horror was steeped in realism.
I never understood the hate for Hotel!! It was such a FUN watch & I found the story to be intriguing. I like the serial killer storyline taking inspo from Se7en because that's one of my favorite movies & I like that AHS made it more campy rather than gritty. I'm so glad to see someone who feels the same way as me about it lol
@@EJMoreno I liked it for quite some tame. But I ended up having the same problem as 1984 when they pulled the murder house twist and once you die in the area you can’t leave. Without that twist I would’ve loved it even more.
1. Coven 2. Hotel 3. Roanoke ( underrated) 4. Asylum 5 Murder House Seems like many didn't like Roanoke, but it had some of the scariest scenes, and the twists story within a story was really surprising. Worst, definitely Delicate- no need to explain, Freakshow just cause i didn't enjoy the carnival story nor characters. Red Tide, just boring.
Here's my ranking of all 12 seasons of American Horror Story. 12. Freak Show 11. Roanoke 10. Double Feature 9. Hotel 8. NYC 7. Cult 6. Delicate 5. 1984 4. Apocalypse 3. Coven 2. Asylum 1. Murder House
1984 is def a top 5 for me. murder house is def my fav. I may need to go back and re watch hotel and finish roanoke. I remember not liking hotel but ive watched a few oof these vids and so many have it high. I also never finished roanoke because it made me sooooo confused. def need to rewatch those 2!
1. asylum season 2, extraordinary masterpiece. 2. cult season 7, extraordinary masterpiece. 3. Roanoke season 6, greatness 4. murder house season 1, greatness. 5. coven season 3, extremely very very good. 6. hotel season 5, extremely very very good. 7. freak show season 4, very good. 8. 1984 season 9, very good. 9. double feature red tide season 10 part 1, good. 10. Stories(the spin-off) season 2, good. (6 episodes were good but facelift and lake were bad.) 11. apocalypse season 8, good 12. Delicate season 12, decent 13. NYC season 11, decent 14. double feature Death Valley season 10 part 2, decent. 15. Stories(the spin-off) season 3, not good.( Daphne was good, bestie was decent, tapeworm and organ were bad) (this seasons spot may change once the rest of the episodes come out if they come out as season 3 or if they just make the remaining episodes season 4 we’ll see) 16. stories(the spin-off) season 1, not good.(feral and ba’al were good, the rest 5 more episodes were bad.)
My personal order, from worst to best: Double Feature, Delicate, 1984, Hotel, Freak Show, Apocalypse, Coven, Cult, Asylum, Murder House, for me. I just couldn't get into NYC or Roanoke. I dunno why. Perhaps I was distracted at the time? So I didn't include them. Another great video, EJ. Thanks for the constantly great content.
Coven will always be the first spot for me! It was a great blend of horror and American stories 🤩 I do sometimes wonder if the show will ever get me invested in another season again, red tide was close until they cut it short and ruined the ending
@@ch3m1c4l_c0ff1n I totally get that! As a Hotel fan, that was me during its original run. It was so upsetting. I’ve come to really respect some parts of Cult. Ally is quite fun to watch in the second half
@@preciouschildd double feature was bad, NYC was fine and Delicate is amazing. People can hate delicate all they want but it’ll grow a cult following at some point. It’s iconic, dark, funny and gory.
I have coven, hotel and 1984 as my top 3 they are always interchangeable depending on my mood. I think what I love about them so much is they have ready influences (specifically in hotel, I have always been obsessed with true crime so when devils night came on and I was seeing all these killers I had researched and watched documentaries and had an interest in I was so exited) but make them their own and change them to fit into this universe, and more importantly I think I love those seasons the most is because they are just so fun and entertaining. Rewatch ability is a big thing for me as well and I find that these seasons are the most re watchable. 1984 I love because I am obsessed with 80s slashers and gore and fun. Hotel I love because of the style and the vampires and lady gaga. And coven I love because well who doesn’t love some bitchy witches just being iconic. There are of course things I love about most of the seasons and much more I love about my top 3. But I think ahs is such a unique show that has something that everyone could enjoy or at least be entertained by and I will continue watching every new season no matter how bad that are and re watching my favs. Sorry for this really long winded comment I love talking about this show or any show or movie tbh probably the neurodivergent in me 😂
Asylum is always gonna be my favorite because Lily rabe is my favorite ahs actress. Freak show is my least favorite. Dandy is the weakest villain for me personally
I think Red Tide and Death Valley could have been fine if they were on their own and not crammed together. There wasn't enough episodes to make it good.. They should have been their own seperate seasons.
i currently watching s12 and it was okay. my top 3 would be asylum, 1984 and cult. and worst would be nyc. i cant remember the ending for nyc tho. did even i finished it? same goes with roanoke. perhaps maybe there's not much characters in that season.
I put mine in order of what was most fun to watch/what I’d go back and watch again. I cannot remember anything about Cult which is why it’s last 😂 12- Cult 11- Apocalypse 10- NYC 9- Delicate 8- Double Feature 7- 1984 6- Hotel 5- Roanoke 4- Freak Show 3- Asylum 2- Murder House 1- Coven
Roanoke is last for me I can’t stand it, was the first one I really hated. I loved 1984 and I am not a huge fan of 80s movies lol! I think modern horror is much better but loved it. Murder house and hotel are number 1 for me and I still haven’t finished apocalypse it was just so bad lol!
My personal ranking: 1. Hotel 2. Asylum 3. Coven 4. Murder House 5. Apocalypse* 6. 1984 7. Freakshow 8. Roanoke 9. Cult 10. NYC 11. Delicate 12. Double Feature I thought the whole Silicon Valley/satanic robot was a bit too campy for Apocalypse. I also hated how the season ended, but I loved how it tied up a lot of loose ends lore-wise. I feel like AHS will have a great story in mind for the season, and then they just pull side plots and twists out of a hat and try to inject them into the season, which just ends up making the story messy.
@@EJMoreno hehe 😅😅 I find it so funny how different ahs fans rankings are. Besides the bottom two my friends and I have completely different rankings there's no consensus at all and we go on rants about why our favourites are the best when we talk about ahs but we never convince anyone! 😂😂😂
Murder House, Asylum and NYC. Coven and the following seasons caught me on the wrong foot. Why is my favorite slow burn horror series suddenly Charmed? Musical numbers, really? Absolutely did not fit the established tone and themes for me. NYC made me cry and I love it.
Fun ranking, it's a bizarre journey of highs and lows with AHS. I'm dead at Dermot McDermott, MovieBitch confirmed! I love them too, gonna miss Avryl this summer hope she's ok.
@@kev7600 hi, no issue at all with Dylan, another set of reviewers mixed up Dylan McDermott and Dermot Mulroney and they now refer to both actors as Dermot McDermott as a long running joke.
I cant agree, but I'm a story person, not actor person Coven is a terrible story and that is frustrating because it starts so well and falls apart halfway through and rushed in the end, literally being the first to start that trend that everyone complains about & you yourself pont out shifts AHS as a whole because thats why. Asylum & Freakshow are the *strongest* cohesive original stories, with great acting (for those that care) I dont have hate for Hotel, easily in my top 3 too lol
My ranking is 1984> Murder House> Asylum> Coven> Roanoke> Cult> Freak Show> Apocalypse> Delicate> Double Feature: Red Tide> Hotel> NYC> Double Feature: Death Valley
Roanoke is and always will be my favorite season! It had it all!! The third wall was broken which only made it more interesting. The deaths were on brand for each character. The plot was thick and the turns turned me😂 my number 1. I also loved cult.
NYC is probably my favorite season of AHS. But well... I'm a pansexual guy who lives near Berlin (a city that had one of the most famous gay scenes during the aids crisis). So I'm a bit biased. It was obviously a season made for someone like me, and that's fine. I think there is the appeal of AHS. All seasons are so different and also are made for different people. Freakshow was appealing for people with disabilities, Asylum delivered a relatable story for people dealing with mental health problems and also people who feel alienated from society, and seasons like Coven and Apocalypse are enpowering to women. Those are just examples, but I think that's the reason for the many different tastes when it comes to why everyone seems to have different favorites.
Hey EJ 👋🏾. I truly enjoyed your ranking. Although I haven’t watched every season of AHS I’ll jot down my most favorite to least favorite seasons: 1. Coven 2. Asylum 3. Freak show 4. Hotel 5. Murder House 6. Apocalypse 7. 1984 8. Cult 9. Roanoke 10. Delicate
@@EJMoreno yaassss. Cult was like you said, a bit too heavy handed. I get so turned off when people politicize the smallest things. I watch television to run away from our political climate, not to be smacked in the face with it. lol. 😂
Thank you for being one of the few people who actually ranked all 12 seasons. I've never seen two people agree on the rankings for American horror story honestly. I haven't seen delicate but I think Roanoke is easily the worst season for me.
The best 1 (Asylum) -perfect season 2 (Hotel)----so many good characters, so many good stores, great performances and setting 3 (Roanoke)---Hands down the scariest goriest season. Very underrated People dismissed it because the reality show/ real life double characters aspect. 4 (Coven)----was almost a perfect season but finale ruined it #justice for misty watchable 5-(1984)---Cool 80's throwback, but too many loopholes in plot and the whole Ramirez thing was dumb 6-(Freakshow) Some great characters, But kathy bates accent was so bad it ruined every scene she was in, that you either laughed or had to skip till she was off the screen. Then that massacre at the freakshow was like ryan ran out of ideas and just did damage control to move the finale along just felt lazy. 7. (murder house)- Some great performances especially lange, Rabe, conroy and had some good stories. The black Dahlia one Is good. The Harmons were just annoying and the themes just made it more erotic than horror majority of the time. 8. (Apocalypse) - could have been really good. Good concept but bad execution. So many loopholes, inconsistencies in the AHS timelines, The same actor playing numerous roles with characters they play in their season like its so dumb to me. Plus The ending If they really wanted to stop michael They should have gone back in time to the Night he was conceived and stop all the killings from the beginning. The next ending The two smart kids have the antichrist. But By AHS logic ghost and human baby made the Antichrist. So again inconsistencies. But had some cool moments throughout the show Bringing misty back and Marie even though that was wasted. It's an ok show if you turn your brain off lol. 9.(Double feature)--red tide was good up until last 2 episodes, were so bad The finale was a joke especially the logic. A little girl kills a boy twice her size in a waiting room drags him though lobby down the stairs into the alley and outside. Nobody saw no cameras anywhere? Plus the red pill heightened your artistic gift not gave you super strength. Death valley was bonkers but mamie was awesome. The worst 10 cult----It was just so bad. Overkill of politics & Sarah Paulson screaming and crying got so annoying, so many bad episodes 11 Delicate---just terrible had like 1 good episode 12 NYC----I couldn't get past 3rd episode just did not like this at all
My rank would be 1. Asylum 2. Coven 3. Freak Show 4. Hotel 5. Murder House 6/7. Cult and Roanoke depending on my mood they trade off 8. Apocalypse 9. Red Tide 10. 1984 Didn’t watch anymore after that, including the second half of season 10.
@@hahatoldyouso really fun picks! 1984 is really fun and gets the kinda wacky I like. I wonder what Evan wouldve done in that season. I’d trade his role in Apocalypse for a fun 80s goofy role
Here's my ranking 1. Coven 2. 1984 3. Hotel 4. Apocalypse 5. Freakshow 6. Murder house 7. Cult 8. Roanoke 9. Asylum I haven't watched the other seasons the last one i watched was 1984 because i heard the later seasons aren't good
I know I'm in the minority, but I love cult. I 100% agree with double feature. I stopped watching and haven't seen nyc and delicate yet. I finally finished double feature today and I think if it had more connections, it would've been better
My ranking is: 12: Roanoke, because I couldn't get into it with the back and forth between the show and past. Stick to the past and I would have liked it a lot more. 11: Delicate, it was basically Rosemary's Baby but not as good. 10: Double Feature, I loved Red Tide.. it's the only reason it is above Delicate. Plus Mickey is my second favorite character of all the seasons. 9: Cult, I didn't care for it but some of it was good. 8: Apocalypse, same as Cult. 7: 1984, love slashers and the Ramirez part made it seem.. realer.. lol 6: NYC, I love too many characters to put it lower. 5: Murder House, boring but the first one so gotta respect it. That baby though?! Terrifying! 4: Coven, great characters. Nothing really wrong with it. Just not a favorite. 3: Hotel, aside from the addiction demon I loved it! My favorite character of all the seasons is Liz Taylor. 2: Asylum, I have nothing bad to say tbh. 1: Freak Show, come on.. it's just the best. Everything. From the characters, the setting, the vengeance... love it.
I didn't even know season 12 existed till I saw it pop up I immediately did some Googling and figured out I was very late the to the party Watched episode one, wasn't impressed or interested, looked up plot summary, still wasn't. Combined with the fact it's lower than Cult on this list, I think I'm safe skipping s12 as well.
I think if they got rid of the modern day parts it would of been better and they couldn’t made a better story, maybe bringing the modern at the end to wrap it up, but it’s a hard pass for me
I do not like any horror movies shows stuff etc. but i have to admit, AHS Hotel Was F##*ing Great not to scary, but also Has a bit of humor and great performances.
I like you, I'd watch other videos of you reviewing other shows. I just don't watch any of the other shows you review lol. IDK maybe do a poll to see what else others are watching and maybe try doing other shows?
@@EJMoreno I'm enjoying the Dead Boys Detectives. I know mike Flanagan hasn't released anything new, but his Netflix shows/movies are amazing. Midnight Mass, Midnight Club, The Fall of the House of Usher. BTW, this is the first time someone I follow responds to me
@@MeyLokaFlanagan - the Haunting of Hill House was excellent, Haunting of Bly Manor and Midnight Mass, Midnight Club were all good. I tried watching the House of Usher, but got half way through episode two, and got bored. Does it get better, is it worth watching?
@@beatsventura8813 House of Usher isn't my favorite either, it's not great. Midnight Mass was my favorite, I've never hated a fictional character as much as I hate Bev... uuuugggghhh hate her 🤣
NYC, although many disliked it, it was ok, not the worst nor best. No, it wasn't as compelling as other seasons. The thing is, unlike some of the other series shows out, i still got excited about it, cuz AHS, hello. I anxiously awaited each new episode. However, i can't say the same for Delicate, which was complete crap and bored me to tears. It felt like a completely different universe than AHS , 😂 It had the energy of several AHS fans writing their own flawed script based on their interpretation of the series. It doesn't feel like Ryan Murphy/ Brad Falczuk writing, etc.
Here to freak out about hotel being number one. Lol jk but I didn't like hotel very much, mostly bc it really confused me? I didn't get the point I guess? What was going on with the countless stealing all those kids? Why were the all albino looking. The father\cop guy was being so dumb. I did like the serial killer meeting and the hh Holmes part. Also love d gaga in this season.
@@beardedqueen I think I kinda gave my reasons. I can see it being cathartic for some or educational for another, but it just didn’t hit what I wanted. It’s a reason I respect but I find to be poorly structured and lacking some scares. At least there’s Russell Tovey 🫣😅
![[DOKKAN BATTLE] Worldwide Campaign Announcement Video Part 2!](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/JpT5Voak6WA/mqdefault.jpg)
My problem with AHS is how they always start so well, but become nonsense with inconsistent character development and abbreviated subplots.
Coven is definitely my #1 I think I have watched that season more than 10x now 😂
Coven was super dope!!
When it aired, I would tevo it and rewatch each new episode. Then I must have re-watched the entire season about ten times as well.
Lol Roanoke is in my top three. I love that whole switch of tv show perspectives halfway through. I LOVE THE BUTCHER! more-so how Kathy Bates reality tv character is obsessed with being the butcher. I also really like the episode of freak show where Jessica Lange covers Lana's Gods and Monsters. Everybody gets mad at me when I rate asylum in the bottom three lol.

You’re not! But the Hotel fans were quiet for a long time and now we popping out
@@EJMoreno I liked it for quite some tame. But I ended up having the same problem as 1984 when they pulled the murder house twist and once you die in the area you can’t leave. Without that twist I would’ve loved it even more.
Hotel had so much death and gore that it completely lost its shock factor.
Yes lol
Didnt like it.
I love AHS. I couldn’t even finish Hotel. I watched every episode of every other season. Roanoke love over here!
1. Coven
2. Hotel
3. Roanoke ( underrated)
4. Asylum
5 Murder House
Seems like many didn't like Roanoke, but it had some of the scariest scenes, and the twists story within a story was really surprising.
Worst, definitely Delicate- no need to explain, Freakshow just cause i didn't enjoy the carnival story nor characters. Red Tide, just boring.
1. Coven
2. Murder house
3. Asylum
4. Apocalypse
5. Freakshow
6. Hotel
7. 1984
8. Cult
9. Roanoke
10. Double Feature
11. Delicate
12. NYC
I believe 1984 and Well a different version of Death Valley shouldve been double feature while Red Tides shouldve been a whole season.
Here's my ranking of all 12 seasons of American Horror Story.

10. Double Feature
9. Hotel
8. NYC

14. double feature Death Valley season 10 part 2, decent.
15. Stories(the spin-off) season 3, not good.( Daphne was good, bestie was decent, tapeworm and organ were bad) (this seasons spot may change once the rest of the episodes come out if they come out as season 3 or if they just make the remaining episodes season 4 we’ll see)
16. stories(the spin-off) season 1, not good.(feral and ba’al were good, the rest 5 more episodes were bad.)
My personal order, from worst to best: Double Feature, Delicate, 1984, Hotel, Freak Show, Apocalypse, Coven, Cult, Asylum, Murder House, for me.
I just couldn't get into NYC or Roanoke. I dunno why. Perhaps I was distracted at the time? So I didn't include them.
Another great video, EJ. Thanks for the constantly great content.
This kind of spoils the video
@@trent_king No, this is my list lol. My personal order.
@samsong24
oh ok lemme go check it out. I was scared to at first! 😂
@@trent_king lmao all good. I'll edit the comment.
same I had to attempt watching NYC and roanoke several times before I could finish them
Its easy to choose favorites and least favorites. Its the middle ranking that is tough
This ranking makes me want to go back and rewatch the seasons.
I'll be a Freak Show truther until I die❤
I was so excited for Cult because I was so excited for Evan Peters… it took me almost a year to watch it…
Coven will always be the first spot for me! It was a great blend of horror and American stories 🤩 I do sometimes wonder if the show will ever get me invested in another season again, red tide was close until they cut it short and ruined the ending
Its hard out here being a cult fan, alot of people rank it so low but i love it so far
I've watched murder house and asylum, watched half of coven but got bored so I skipped to cult, but I'll probably finish coven after this
@@ch3m1c4l_c0ff1n I totally get that! As a Hotel fan, that was me during its original run. It was so upsetting. I’ve come to really respect some parts of Cult. Ally is quite fun to watch in the second half

Delicate is amazing why is it always people’s second last in their ranking 😭
@@Yousifdiyab delicate is disrespectful for ahs history ahs didnt deserved last seasons(10-11-12 worst seasons of ahs)
@@preciouschildd double feature was bad, NYC was fine and Delicate is amazing. People can hate delicate all they want but it’ll grow a cult following at some point. It’s iconic, dark, funny and gory.
@@Yousifdiyab he amınagoyum
I also really love Hotel and it is definitely one season I have rewatched a lot!
Apocalypse ranked ahead of Asylum, EYE Yi Yiiiiiiii 😂😂
Hotel will always be my favorite, such a good season
I have coven, hotel and 1984 as my top 3 they are always interchangeable depending on my mood. I think what I love about them so much is they have ready influences (specifically in hotel, I have always been obsessed with true crime so when devils night came on and I was seeing all these killers I had researched and watched documentaries and had an interest in I was so exited) but make them their own and change them to fit into this universe, and more importantly I think I love those seasons the most is because they are just so fun and entertaining. Rewatch ability is a big thing for me as well and I find that these seasons are the most re watchable. 1984 I love because I am obsessed with 80s slashers and gore and fun. Hotel I love because of the style and the vampires and lady gaga. And coven I love because well who doesn’t love some bitchy witches just being iconic. There are of course things I love about most of the seasons and much more I love about my top 3. But I think ahs is such a unique show that has something that everyone could enjoy or at least be entertained by and I will continue watching every new season no matter how bad that are and re watching my favs. Sorry for this really long winded comment I love talking about this show or any show or movie tbh probably the neurodivergent in me 😂
Asylum is always gonna be my favorite because Lily rabe is my favorite ahs actress. Freak show is my least favorite. Dandy is the weakest villain for me personally
After a 9 hr shift I needed this video 😂 love your channel so much
Hope you enjoyed it! That means so much that you’ll wind down with my video.
I think Red Tide and Death Valley could have been fine if they were on their own and not crammed together. There wasn't enough episodes to make it good.. They should have been their own seperate seasons.
Red Tide on its own, even with the wonky last episode, would rank way higher than Death Valley
i currently watching s12 and it was okay. my top 3 would be asylum, 1984 and cult. and worst would be nyc. i cant remember the ending for nyc tho. did even i finished it? same goes with roanoke. perhaps maybe there's not much characters in that season.
1984 being in the top is awesome! Fun picks
I hated Roanoke.
1. Roanoke
2. Asylum
3. Coven
4. Cult
5. Hotel
6. Apocalypse
7. Delicate
8. 1984
9. Murder House
10. Freak Show
11. NYC
12. Delicate
I put mine in order of what was most fun to watch/what I’d go back and watch again. I cannot remember anything about Cult which is why it’s last 😂
12- Cult
11- Apocalypse
10- NYC
9- Delicate
8- Double Feature
7- 1984
6- Hotel
5- Roanoke
4- Freak Show
3- Asylum
2- Murder House
1- Coven
Fair list to be honest! The way no one really messes with Cult says a lot about
Roanoke is last for me I can’t stand it, was the first one I really hated. I loved 1984 and I am not a huge fan of 80s movies lol! I think modern horror is much better but loved it. Murder house and hotel are number 1 for me and I still haven’t finished apocalypse it was just so bad lol!
My personal ranking:
1. Hotel
2. Asylum
3. Coven
4. Murder House
5. Apocalypse*
6. 1984
7. Freakshow
8. Roanoke
9. Cult
10. NYC
11. Delicate
12. Double Feature
I thought the whole Silicon Valley/satanic robot was a bit too campy for Apocalypse. I also hated how the season ended, but I loved how it tied up a lot of loose ends lore-wise.
I feel like AHS will have a great story in mind for the season, and then they just pull side plots and twists out of a hat and try to inject them into the season, which just ends up making the story messy.
My favorite season is 1984. I'm such a sucker for anything dealing with 80s slashers😌
Whoo hoo I love rankings. Thank you for the video! 🎉🙌🏻

@@EJMoreno hehe 😅😅 I find it so funny how different ahs fans rankings are. Besides the bottom two my friends and I have completely different rankings there's no consensus at all and we go on rants about why our favourites are the best when we talk about ahs but we never convince anyone! 😂😂😂
Rank the characters! Dandy was so phenomenal in Freak Show. So was Mr. March in Hotel. Then Twisty with his back story!!! Such interesting characters.
Apocalypse getting its flowers! Feels Correct
It deserves the love!

Murder House, Asylum and NYC.
Coven and the following seasons caught me on the wrong foot. Why is my favorite slow burn horror series suddenly Charmed? Musical numbers, really? Absolutely did not fit the established tone and themes for me.
NYC made me cry and I love it.
Should I do a Charmed revisit?! First season overview? 😂😅
Sorry you mentioned it and now I want that. Coven def had some different tones, especially if you like those three more serious seasons
'Every single Charmed episode Ranked'. This is the way.
Fun ranking, it's a bizarre journey of highs and lows with AHS. I'm dead at Dermot McDermott, MovieBitch confirmed! I love them too, gonna miss Avryl this summer hope she's ok.
@@believer773 I’m a MovieBitch forever! So glad you spotted that lol
What the issue with Dylan McDermott?
@@kev7600 hi, no issue at all with Dylan, another set of reviewers mixed up Dylan McDermott and Dermot Mulroney and they now refer to both actors as Dermot McDermott as a long running joke.
I cant agree, but I'm a story person, not actor person Coven is a terrible story and that is frustrating because it starts so well and falls apart halfway through and rushed in the end, literally being the first to start that trend that everyone complains about & you yourself pont out shifts AHS as a whole because thats why.
Asylum & Freakshow are the *strongest* cohesive original stories, with great acting (for those that care)
I dont have hate for Hotel, easily in my top 3 too lol
My ranking is 1984> Murder House> Asylum> Coven> Roanoke> Cult> Freak Show> Apocalypse> Delicate> Double Feature: Red Tide> Hotel> NYC> Double Feature: Death Valley
Oh I need to start splitting Death Valley n Red Tide for the ranks, could be fun to see Red Tide higher for me as well
@@EJMoreno i know some people might think thats not a fair ranking, but they are technically two different stories..?
Roanoke is and always will be my favorite season! It had it all!! The third wall was broken which only made it more interesting. The deaths were on brand for each character. The plot was thick and the turns turned me😂 my number 1. I also loved cult.
NYC is probably my favorite season of AHS.
But well... I'm a pansexual guy who lives near Berlin (a city that had one of the most famous gay scenes during the aids crisis). So I'm a bit biased.
It was obviously a season made for someone like me, and that's fine.
I think there is the appeal of AHS. All seasons are so different and also are made for different people.
Freakshow was appealing for people with disabilities, Asylum delivered a relatable story for people dealing with mental health problems and also people who feel alienated from society, and seasons like Coven and Apocalypse are enpowering to women.
Those are just examples, but I think that's the reason for the many different tastes when it comes to why everyone seems to have different favorites.
Worst to best:
12 - Expositi... I mean, Delicate
11 - NYC
10 - Apocalypse
9 - Double Feature
8 - Cult
7 - Roanoke
6 - Freakshow
5 - Hotel
4 - 1984
3 - coven
2 - murder house
1 - asylum
I think my faves are murder house; coven, hotel, and 1984
Hey EJ 👋🏾. I truly enjoyed your ranking. Although I haven’t watched every season of AHS I’ll jot down my most favorite to least favorite seasons:
1. Coven
2. Asylum
3. Freak show
4. Hotel
5. Murder House
6. Apocalypse
7. 1984
8. Cult
9. Roanoke
10. Delicate
That’s a fair list! I like how none of us really mess with Cult 😅
@@EJMoreno yaassss. Cult was like you said, a bit too heavy handed. I get so turned off when people politicize the smallest things. I watch television to run away from our political climate, not to be smacked in the face with it. lol. 😂
My take (best to worst):
1. Asylum
2. Coven
3. Murder house
4. Hotel
5. 1984
6. Apocalypse
7. Cult
8. Freak Show
9. Roanoake
10. NYC

3. Freak Show
4. Coven
5. Apocalypse
6. 1984
7. Roanoke
8. Murder House
9. Cult
10. Double Feature
I do think hotel is the best season tho
The first part of double feature was good tho
The final episode is super bad thoooo
Hotel DESERVES to be number one
I would have swapped Roanoke and 1984. I didn't like the reality show part as much. I like 1984 better.
@@NiseyNikki80 I think I’d probably switch them depending on my mood. I applaud Roanoke more for its bold swings
Thank you for being one of the few people who actually ranked all 12 seasons. I've never seen two people agree on the rankings for American horror story honestly. I haven't seen delicate but I think Roanoke is easily the worst season for me.
Totally agree with you about Roanoke
I don't completely agree with this list, but Hotel is hands down the best season.
The best
1 (Asylum) -perfect season
2 (Hotel)----so many good characters, so many good stores, great performances and setting
3 (Roanoke)---Hands down the scariest goriest season. Very underrated People dismissed it because the reality show/ real life double characters aspect.
4 (Coven)----was almost a perfect season but finale ruined it #justice for misty
watchable
5-(1984)---Cool 80's throwback, but too many loopholes in plot and the whole Ramirez thing was dumb
6-(Freakshow) Some great characters, But kathy bates accent was so bad it ruined every scene she was in, that you either laughed or had to skip till she was off the screen. Then that massacre at the freakshow was like ryan ran out of ideas and just did damage control to move the finale along just felt lazy.
7. (murder house)- Some great performances especially lange, Rabe, conroy and had some good stories. The black Dahlia one Is good. The Harmons were just annoying and the themes just made it more erotic than horror majority of the time.
8. (Apocalypse) - could have been really good. Good concept but bad execution. So many loopholes, inconsistencies in the AHS timelines, The same actor playing numerous roles with characters they play in their season like its so dumb to me. Plus The ending If they really wanted to stop michael They should have gone back in time to the Night he was conceived and stop all the killings from the beginning. The next ending The two smart kids have the antichrist. But By AHS logic ghost and human baby made the Antichrist. So again inconsistencies. But had some cool moments throughout the show Bringing misty back and Marie even though that was wasted. It's an ok show if you turn your brain off lol.
9.(Double feature)--red tide was good up until last 2 episodes, were so bad The finale was a joke especially the logic. A little girl kills a boy twice her size in a waiting room drags him though lobby down the stairs into the alley and outside. Nobody saw no cameras anywhere? Plus the red pill heightened your artistic gift not gave you super strength. Death valley was bonkers but mamie was awesome.
The worst
10 cult----It was just so bad. Overkill of politics & Sarah Paulson screaming and crying got so annoying, so many bad episodes
11 Delicate---just terrible had like 1 good episode
12 NYC----I couldn't get past 3rd episode just did not like this at all
We have the same top four, but in a different order. Roanoke was definitely the scariest, and the characters in Hotel and Coven were superb.
Hotel is my favorite season. everything I want in a season
Omg I love nip/tuck
the addiction demon is just too much for me
My rank would be
1. Asylum
2. Coven
3. Freak Show
4. Hotel
5. Murder House
6/7. Cult and Roanoke depending on my mood they trade off
8. Apocalypse
9. Red Tide
10. 1984
Didn’t watch anymore after that, including the second half of season 10.
Oh love this list!
Just don’t put Kim Kardashians name in same sentence as Evan Peters
@@hahatoldyouso but guess what? I did. 👏
@@EJMoreno yeahh, that's fair enough. Hotel and 1984 are my favourites
@@hahatoldyouso really fun picks! 1984 is really fun and gets the kinda wacky I like. I wonder what Evan wouldve done in that season. I’d trade his role in Apocalypse for a fun 80s goofy role
@@EJMoreno yesss I totally agree. My favourite character he's done for me has to be James March in Hotel...
Here's my ranking
1. Coven
2. 1984
3. Hotel
4. Apocalypse
5. Freakshow
6. Murder house
7. Cult
8. Roanoke
9. Asylum
I haven't watched the other seasons the last one i watched was 1984 because i heard the later seasons aren't good
I know I'm in the minority, but I love cult. I 100% agree with double feature. I stopped watching and haven't seen nyc and delicate yet. I finally finished double feature today and I think if it had more connections, it would've been better
I also was hooked with Roanoke but maybe it’s because I am a reality TV gal, I rank it way higher on my list but it’s definitely gone down
Are you planning on doing videos on interview with the vampire tv series or movie the show is really great 🤔🦇🧛♀️🧛♂️
I watch the first part of DF and I can say that the worst character there and in any AHS seasons are the kid Alma
I loved hotel. And all the seasons before it. I thought murder house was tight. I rank it much higher
My ranking is:
12: Roanoke, because I couldn't get into it with the back and forth between the show and past. Stick to the past and I would have liked it a lot more.
11: Delicate, it was basically Rosemary's Baby but not as good.
10: Double Feature, I loved Red Tide.. it's the only reason it is above Delicate. Plus Mickey is my second favorite character of all the seasons.
9: Cult, I didn't care for it but some of it was good.
8: Apocalypse, same as Cult.
7: 1984, love slashers and the Ramirez part made it seem.. realer.. lol
6: NYC, I love too many characters to put it lower.
5: Murder House, boring but the first one so gotta respect it. That baby though?! Terrifying!
4: Coven, great characters. Nothing really wrong with it. Just not a favorite.
3: Hotel, aside from the addiction demon I loved it! My favorite character of all the seasons is Liz Taylor.
2: Asylum, I have nothing bad to say tbh.
1: Freak Show, come on.. it's just the best. Everything. From the characters, the setting, the vengeance... love it.
Murder House will always be Number 1 for me
I didn't even know season 12 existed till I saw it pop up
I immediately did some Googling and figured out I was very late the to the party
Watched episode one, wasn't impressed or interested, looked up plot summary, still wasn't. Combined with the fact it's lower than Cult on this list, I think I'm safe skipping s12 as well.
Y’all should really give Death Valley another chance. I love it. And it hit different on re-watch.
I’ll rewatch it without Red Tide and it could help. I couldn’t help to think it looked too cheap, very much going for 1950s B-movie
I think if they got rid of the modern day parts it would of been better and they couldn’t made a better story, maybe bringing the modern at the end to wrap it up, but it’s a hard pass for me
@@ConorDale the Gen Z kids really drag that down. A 50s B Movie bout our government hiding aliens is amazing, but the pregnant people ruined it
I do not like any horror movies shows stuff etc. but i have to admit, AHS Hotel Was F##*ing Great not to scary, but also Has a bit of humor and great performances.
I liked most of NYC except that godawful tarot episode and the corny angels with deer antlers. The last scene was surprisingly bleak
Yesss a rank video! And I have that same bat light in pink at my desk 💚
I loved the little bat light! And hope you enjoy the ranking, you get my personal takes on a lot of the seasons 🙈
I like you, I'd watch other videos of you reviewing other shows. I just don't watch any of the other shows you review lol. IDK maybe do a poll to see what else others are watching and maybe try doing other shows?
Yess! Waiting for some new shows to drop. Idk if folks want me talking bout House of the Dragon or something strange.
What are ya watching?
@@EJMoreno I'm enjoying the Dead Boys Detectives. I know mike Flanagan hasn't released anything new, but his Netflix shows/movies are amazing. Midnight Mass, Midnight Club, The Fall of the House of Usher. BTW, this is the first time someone I follow responds to me
@@MeyLokaFlanagan - the Haunting of Hill House was excellent, Haunting of Bly Manor and Midnight Mass, Midnight Club were all good. I tried watching the House of Usher, but got half way through episode two, and got bored. Does it get better, is it worth watching?
@@beatsventura8813 House of Usher isn't my favorite either, it's not great. Midnight Mass was my favorite, I've never hated a fictional character as much as I hate Bev... uuuugggghhh hate her 🤣
Hotel is iconic loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
NYC, although many disliked it, it was ok, not the worst nor best. No, it wasn't as compelling as other seasons. The thing is, unlike some of the other series shows out, i still got excited about it, cuz AHS, hello. I anxiously awaited each new episode.
However, i can't say the same for Delicate, which was complete crap and bored me to tears. It felt like a completely different universe than AHS , 😂 It had the energy of several AHS fans writing their own flawed script based on their interpretation of the series. It doesn't feel like Ryan Murphy/ Brad Falczuk writing, etc.
Here to freak out about hotel being number one. Lol jk but I didn't like hotel very much, mostly bc it really confused me? I didn't get the point I guess? What was going on with the countless stealing all those kids? Why were the all albino looking. The father\cop guy was being so dumb. I did like the serial killer meeting and the hh Holmes part. Also love d gaga in this season.
I will never understand why NYC is consistently ranked so low. It blows my mind…
@@beardedqueen I think I kinda gave my reasons. I can see it being cathartic for some or educational for another, but it just didn’t hit what I wanted. It’s a reason I respect but I find to be poorly structured and lacking some scares.
At least there’s Russell Tovey 🫣😅
Roanoke over freakshow is a choice! 😅
Apocalypse, Hotel and 1984 were my favorites. Coven was good.
Nah the new York ones was the worst
