I thought it was a wonderful finale, and that this season was much better than last season. Though S1 was still my favorite.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath. Oh, and help us get Terriers dvds!

So there were two moments in this finale I liked:
Myrtle in her red dress marching towards her funeral pyre while Silver Springs played was everything!
Knotty pine! Goddamn, I love Jessica Lange.
Everything else was a big ol' yawn. This was definitely my first and last season with AHS. I did enjoy the acting but the story was just ugh...and no...and yeah, no again.
I still think it would've been a million times better if Diana Ross had been the real supreme.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
The AHS finale was so disappointing. I was SO excited for this season, and it failed for me on so many levels. Bah.

Because books.
kat, I agree that "Knotty pine!" was awesome. And I did love Myrtle's dress.
Also this, from the AV Club recap, practically sums up the whole season:
I did find it appropriate that the wonder that Madison choked when performing was divination. The idea that she couldn’t see beyond herself was a nice bit of ironic justice almost certainly arrived at accidentally.

I loved season 1 of AHS. I stopped watching season 2 about halfway through. I watched all of season 3 but didn't really enjoy it at all, and felt relief when I deleted the season pass. I'm not sure if I'll watch season 4.
Sarah Paulson looked stunning at the end of the show, though!
And I loved the little Stevie Nicks video at the beginning.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I only sort of liked parts pf season 1, so I haven't watched since, but I have avidly followed y'all's comments and discussions. I think I've enjoyed reading along here more than I would have actually watching the last two seasons.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
Anyone remember when it seemed like this season of AHS would be about Zoe's murderous vagina?
This season was really shit, especially this episode.

I just want to see some costume design awards and then I'll be happy. I adored the various scenes where they all went out together in their blacks.
Discussing with a friend last night we were speculating that some of the issues might stem from this season being so much more linear, not to say, typical in its plotting that the writers were overcompensating by throwing all kinds of random grossness against the wall to try to stay freaky.

True, the costumes were fab. And so was Myrtle.

I still think it would've been a million times better if Diana Ross had been the real supreme.
LOL. Damn.
Anyone remember when it seemed like this season of AHS would be about Zoe's murderous vagina?
This is what I was thinking. Shouldn't her nightmare/hell not been of Kyle breaking up with her, but of her murdering her young bf prior to coming to the coven?
