American Horror Story - New Scoop from Ryan Murphy

All of a sudden, cable dramas have gotten sucked into a prestige trap: If they needlessly elongate and stretch their plotlines, then somehow that slowness can be worn as a badge of honor. The Killing dared to spin its wheels for a full season and still not answer a damn thing by the end, while AMC's Rubicon spent several episodes barely budging from its starting position, and the only thing swift about it was its cancellation.

Last night, Ryan Murphy unveiled his upcoming FX drama American Horror Story to reporters, and of the many rules it breaks, the biggest one might be its gleeful defiance of the slow-as-molasses trend. So much happens in the first episode of this haunted-house series — so much that you would normally expect to be seeded over the course of several episodes or even several seasons — that you can't ever look away. By the time this show hits episode three, the characters could plausibly be in outer space at the pace it moves at.
