[Dr Kain]

We spent the day watching Asylum (American Horror Story Season 2). The first five episodes were rough to sit through, but the show did get better afterwards. Unfortunately, it felt like they were just cramming every single Sci-Fi and horror concept into this thing to pad out the timing rather than focus on one point. The alien and demon plots were so convoluted and took away from the Bloody Face storyline, especially because they served no purpose to that plot, which was obviously supposed to be the purpose of the season. It also lacked some of the great cinematography that made Murder House so great and the interesting characters of Coven. I thought Ian MacShane's character was going to be as memorable as Coven's Axe Man, but he wasn't. Overall, I give it a 6/10. It is by far the weakest of the three seasons.
