Production of the untitled AHS will begin next summer and premiere in the fall of 2013. American Horror Story: Asylum, the latest hit in the American Horror Story saga, wraps up its run on Wednesday, January 23 at 10 PM E/P. Last night’s episode (11/14/12) of Asylum topped all broadcast networks in the 10 PM time period in delivery of Adults 18-34 (2.1), Women 18-34 (2.4) and Men 18-34 (1.7). Asylum also ranked #3 among Adults 18-34 in primetime versus all broadcast programs behind Modern Family (3.3) and The X Factor (2.7).

We can’t wait to see what deviously brilliant ideas they come up with for their third miniseries.” Co-Creators/Executive Producers Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk have not announced the new title or story for the next incarnation of the American Horror Story franchise. As was the case with American Horror Story and American Horror Story: Asylum, many of the actors will return in different roles next year, including star Jessica Lange, who won Golden Globe, Screen Actors Guild and Emmy awards for her portrayal of “Constance Langdon” in American Horror Story. Starring as “Sister Jude” in AHS: Asylum, Lange will be moving to the Lead Actress category in the Golden Globe and Emmy awards this year. “The American Horror Story anthology is a labor of love for all of us and we could not be prouder of the work our brilliant company of actors and everyone on the production team is doing this year,” said Murphy. “To John and our friends at FX and Dana Walden and Gary Newman at 20th, we thank you for your vote of confidence -- and to our loyal audience, keep watching!" Following the success of the inaugural miniseries American Horror Story, the award-winning Co-Creator/Executive Producer/Writer/Director Murphy announced that AHS would be a new show every year with no relation to any prior version of AHS. Each book will feature an entirely different theme, setting and characters, even though many of the actors will return to the program in entirely new roles.

Members Suckrates Posted November 24, 2012 Members Share Posted November 24, 2012 So I am pretty caught up now with the episodes, except for the first, so not really sure WHAT happened to Adam Levine and his wife ? but I kinda think they are dead...... I must say, this season is some really sick, twisted shit, and I am amazed that people can think this up. There are literally times I sit with my mouth agape. Its sick Brilliance, and I can't wait to see where this all goes. and Zachary Quintos tour'd'force performanace as the intellectual, mommy-starved psychopath is vile and touching at the same time... I am OBSESSED with this show ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EXPAT Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I'm really hoping for a sweep for Jessica Lange and Zachary Quinto for best actor and best actress in a mini-series this year. They both deserve it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
