20 Great TV Shows That Everybody Turned Against
11. American Horror Story
American Horror Story debuted as a bold anthology that revitalised televised horror. Early seasons such as Murder House, Asylum, and Coven were praised for their atmospheric tension, daring subject matter, and commitment to unsettling storytelling.
The rotating casts and self-contained narratives allowed AHS to take creative risks, blending psychological horror and social commentary in ways that felt fresh. Over time, though, the very elements that defined the show began to bring it down.
Later seasons suffered from messy plots, tonal inconsistency, and an over-reliance on shock value rather than nail-biting horror. Twists multiplied without going anywhere, characters were introduced and discarded hastily, and themes were explored superficially.
Although American Horror Story has been hit-and-miss, the most recent two seasons took a serious nosedive, causing even the most dedicated fans to switch it off for good. Being an anthology, there's no sincere reason for American Horror Story to continue, since there aren't any loose ends to tie up, and, considering how unmistakable its drop in quality has been over the last few years, it's a wonder why the showrunners don't just call it a day.
