This review of theAmerican Horror Story: Freak Showpremiere contains spoilers.

After that lackluster last outing, canFreak Showget theAHStrain back on the right track?

If tonights extra-stuffed premiere is any indication then, well, Im not quite sure.

This season sports a mammoth set piece in the carnival that the freaks live in.

We had to build an entire city.

Also likeAsylum, we have another crazed killer as a chief antagonist.

Speaking of Lange, I think her charms are starting to wear thin.

Meanwhile, Sarah Paulson is set to steal the show this year.

One head breathes in smoke, the other blows it out.

Its something we havent seen on this show before, and thats rare.

The premiere is surely engaging, but so is everyAHSpremiere.

Will we be going somewhere new this year, or is it just another trip around the same carousel?

Stay tuned, dear readers!
