American Horror Story Hotel Episode 12 "Be Our Guest" Review


Iris and Liz oversee a new era at the Cortez. John and Alex struggle to adapt to live outside the hotel.

This was a really great ending episode that was definitely better than I was expecting it to be. Iris and Liz winning over all the ghost in the hotel and convincing them to stop killing people was really cool especially how they went about dealing with the two hard to crack people Sally and Will. I like that they got Sally to stop by getting her a phone and a social life through the internet so she actually had friends and not have to kill to gain friends. Then with Will Drake, Liz taking over the face of his fashion industry so he could create and still do something like he had once done and how they all went about it was really cool. Bringing Billie the median in to talk with some of the ghosts was really sweet with the moment with Iris, but I also could see how all the other ghost got really annoyed by her really fat. I was expecting to see more of John, Alex, and their family but the moments that they did have were really great especially all the devils night stuff. Overall I really enjoyed this season and it definitely wasn't the greatest season but better than some.

American Horror Story Hotel Episode 11 "Battle Royale" Review


Ramona draws vitality from an unlikely source. Sally uses her past to negotiate her future. Scarlett learns the truth of her family's affliction.

This was a really great episode that in my mind wrapped a lot of things up so I'm very curious to see what the last episode might bring. I loved the opening where Iris and Liz trying to take the Countess down on there own with no great outcome. The part with John having to do one more killing to complete the ten commandments killings and the last one being thou shall not kill, I thought it was going to end with him killing himself instead on how it actually ended. And I feel really bad for Scarlett because in the matter of like a few months her whole family has changed dramatically. I'm very curious on how all the little vampire children go into the little hidden hallway with Ramona if that was them because I don't remember that part. And if that was them then thank goodness there gone because I hated them. Sally's whole plot was a little stupid and I'm very curious to see if in the end she might actually get what she wants. Over all I enjoyed this episode and I'm curious to see what the next one will bring.

American Horror Story Hotel Episode 9 "She Wants Revenge" Review


The Countess is reunited with her one true love; Donovan and Ramona take another stab at revenge; a careless decision lands Alex in hot water.

This was a really nice episode with a lot of really kind of strange parts to it. The Countess's wedding to the hotels newest owner happened in this episode as well as all her plans afterwards that happened a lot faster than I thought they would. Donovan's betrayal in this episode I was not really expecting because I was not expecting him to be as stupid as he apparently is. And I'm very curious to know what will happen with Ramona in the future not she seems to be fully stuck in the hotel. I feel like Liz might not survive for very much longer due to all the hatred she now has for The Countess. Alex and the vampire children is a story plot I really don't care much for and sadly I kind of hope all the kids die off because their so bad at being vampires. The Countess's reunion with her love I really didn't care for either, especially the plot where now they are trying to get rid of her loves wife because she has chosen to adapt to her new lifestyle. Overall this was a good episode, but not one that I really cared for.

American Horror Story Hotel Episode 8 "The Ten Commandments Killer" Review


John closes in on the Ten Commandments Killer and Sally details her arrangements with Mr. March.

This was a really great coming full circle episode where a lot more truths come out. The truth about John a knew a while ago but it still is nice to hear it as being a fact. It was really cool to see all the flashbacks of John that built him up to be the character he is and exactly how March wanted him, and I can't wait to see how John will be in the future. Sally's whole roll with the Ten Commandments Killer was a little weird in my mind and it really felt like it was only written in to keep her as a important character and not just a background one. The Countess and Donovan being back together again is nice for the story line but also a little boring in my mind, but I want to know if Donovan still wants to kill her as well. Over all this was a very good episode to classify a lot of the stuff that they have been keeping secret until now.

American Horror Story Hotel Episode 7 "Flicker" Review


Will Drake's renovations uncover one of the hotel's greatest secrets; John undergoes psychiatric evaluation; The Countess learns the fate of her first love.

This was a really great and exiting episode with a lot of The Countess's past reviled. The connection between The Countess and Mr. March makes a lot of since but I was not expecting it at all. The Countess's first loves were amazing and as soon as I saw them I knew they where the ones hidden behind the wall so the only question was if The Countess or Mr. March was the one who put them there. And I very curious to see how they will adapt to the newer style of world now a days compared to the 1920's even more now that The Countess knows there alive. John and the Psych clinic was a little boring and I didn't much care for it but I did really like the little girl he met and I can't wait to see more of her. Over all this was a really amazing episode.

American Horror Story Hotel Episode 6 "Room 33" Review


Ramona and Donovan enact their plan for revenge; Liz Taylor finds true love; the resident of Room 33 is revealed.

This was a really good episode full of a lot of drama. John has pretty much fully crossed over to the land of crazy and his ex-wife is not helping him with this at all in fact she is making it worse and I really am not caring much for her at all. Liz's story line in this episode was really great but sad even though I kind of knew that the one kid wouldn't last long. The resident in room 33 was not who I was expecting I was thinking that it might be Mach's wife that little had been said about. I did like the little tie back to season 1 it was really great to see the characters and house again. I don't care much for the two ghost girls trying to find there purpose now that there stuck in the hotel forever they seem like characters that are going to get really annoying and old fast. I really liked how much Liz is willing to help everyone out when there in trouble and she is quickly becoming one of my favorite characters. Over all this was a really great episode and I can't wait for the next one.

American Horror Story Season 5 Episode 5 "Room Service" Review


Alex uses an unconventional treatment to save a dying patient; a Halloween-hating couple tests Iris's limits.

This was a really good episode but not really in comparison to the last one. Alex is now been settled into the hotel as the new caretaker for all the children. I really can't wait to see what will happen to all the children she infected with her blood because that is eventually going to lead to mass chose. I feel bad that John lost his job but he's been blacking out a lot which makes me think that maybe he blacks out and is the actual 10 commandments killers and that is why March likes him so much. Iris really came into her own in this episode and I enjoyed the line that she said "I really didn't learn how to live until I died." Liz's backstory is so sad but I'm happy that with the Countess's help she learned to embrasure her true self. Over all I really enjoyed this episode.

American Horror Story Hotel Episode 4 "Devil's Night" Review


John receives an invitation to attend an exclusive Devil's Night Soiree. Alex tries to diagnose Holden's strange condition.

This was probably my favorite episode so far with a lot of major plot going on in this episode. John's wife I fully think have some mental problems for the fact she is willing to become a slave to the Countess in order to live with her son forever. I really loved the whole Devil's Night dinner because just watching all of Americas major killers sitting down together and talking. The dinner also gave away the fact that all these major killer were each individually taught by March to kill in mass amounts without being caught. Which I think is really cool that all these killers are connected together through March, and it's setting it up to make it seem like John is going to become a part of the group in the future. I'm still very curious to find out what happened to Donovan and his mother which hopefully the next episode can answer. Over all I really loved this episode.

American Horror Story: Season 5, Episode 3 "Mommy" Review


John deals with marital issues. Donavan is targeted by a dangerous rival of the Countess.

This was a very interesting episode where you got to know a lot more about the characters. You find out that the Countess doesn't like other people doing her job and she is broke. I don't really care for the idea there putting out that you can convince a gay man to marry you because you're a pretty lady. John's wife is a little bit off with the idea that Scarlett is only acting up because she realizes there all unhappy and agrees they should get a divorce. I'm very curious to see where the family is going to go from the next episode on because where this episode ended each member of John's family have now seen Holden at least once. I also really want to know what is going to happen with Donavan with what happened at the end of this episode. Over all I really enjoyed this episode and can't wait to see what will happen next because either the next episode or the episode after is the Halloween episode and usually that is amazing.

American Horror Story Season 5 Episode 2 "Chutes and Ladders" Review


Fashion mogul Will Drake brings couture to the Hotel Cortez. A model catches the Countess's eye. John learns about the hotel's sadistic first owner.

This was another big episode of getting to know the characters. Mr. James March probably have take first place away from the Countress as my favorite character. Not because he's played by Evan Peters but he is just amazingly crazy and just wow of a character that I feel was inspired by H.H. Holmes. I don't really care for the tension between the Countress and her crew. And the new guy they brought into the crew just seems so boring and plain to me. I really want too see more of  Holden and know what happened to him and he is just acted really well and I like him as a character. Over all this was an okay episode, but like I said in the last episode it takes three or four episodes to really get into the story.

American Horror Story Hotel Episode 1 "Checking In" Review






Detective and family man John Lowe investigates a chain of gruesome murders in Los Angeles. A mysterious tip points him to the enigmatic Hotel Cortez.

This was such a weird episode with a lot of blood. Now this was kind of an awkward episode with not a lot of story but in American Horror Story usually the first three episodes are like that as they introduce you to all the characters and tell you a little about them. And then after those first three episodes then they get into the big story. I loved Lady Gaga and her little posse of people, they seem like such great characters that I'm really going to like. I wasn't really expecting the relationship between Iris and her son I actually was figuring he was related to the countess in some form, but this dose make it less creepy then I thought. And like I said in the beginning there is a lot of blood in this episode as well as a few jump scares. Over all I'm very impressed with this episode and I think this will be a good season especially compared to the last two seasons.
