American Horror Story: NYC - Did They Run Out of Screams?
Ah, American Horror Story: NYC. The season that plunged us into the gritty underbelly of 1980s New York City, with enough leather, blood, and questionable haircuts to fill a landfill. But here's the burning question that's been keeping you up at night (besides those creepy shadows in your apartment, wink wink): How many episodes did this horror rollercoaster take us on?
Brace yourselves, it's a shorter scream than usual. Unlike previous seasons that stretched on longer than a politician's apology, NYC was a tight ten episodes. That's right, ten glorious (or horrifying, depending on your taste) hours of murder, mayhem, and maybe even a hint of disco.
Why the short stint? Theories abound, my friends. Did Ryan Murphy, the mastermind behind AHS, get spooked by a particularly realistic-looking rat? Did the cast decide they'd rather be sipping margaritas on Fire Island than running from serial killers? The truth is a mystery, shrouded in fog and the faint scent of Aqua Net hairspray.
But hey, ten episodes is nothing to scoff at! Think about it: that's ten evenings curled up on the couch, hiding under a blanket (or pretending you're not, because you're totally brave), with enough thrills and chills to last a lifetime. Plus, less time spent watching translates to more time investigating those weird noises coming from the basement. Just sayin'.
So there you have it, folks! The answer to the burning question (get it, burning?) is ten. Ten episodes of AHS: NYC, ready to binge-watch whenever you're in the mood for a good scare (and maybe a side of nostalgia for a time you totally weren't alive for). Now go forth and conquer your nightmares... or rewatch the season for the 17th time, we won't judge.
