imdb is basically a glorified wikipedia

In any event, this is probably the funniest show I've seen all year. So many hilarious characters and the performances are all pitch-perfect!

I've enjoyed every episode so far.

My friend talked me into watching this. Needless to say, I don't regret it. I love everything about this show; it is ridiculously (and intentionally) stupid which only makes it all the more hilarious.

As my friend puts it, "the ham acting is the best part." I couldn't agree more. I'm not sure how the actors keep a straight face during filming but they pull it off spectacularly.

I also love the horror movie tropes, the "cheap" make-up effects that look totally fake, not like AHS where the gore has graphic realism to it. My only complaint is it feels slightly inspired by AHS: Coven with the whole sorority girls aspect. What I enjoy most out of this is how it's a mix between Mean Girls and Scream meets I Know What you Did Last Summer. That is a brilliant combination right there.

Emma Roberts is killing my enjoyment of this show she just seems so unlikeabkw as an actress

This show has kinda been a miss for me so far. For a show that's meant to be comedy-horror, it fails at both for me. It's certainly not scary or creepy enough to earn being called horror and the comedy is just so flat. There are times that I can tell lines or actions are supposed to be funny, but they just don't land. It just ends up coming off as a unsuccessful attempt to be funny. Whenever I do laugh, it's because the show has done something so unbelievably stupid and lame. It doesn't help that the plotting is atrocious so far.

The only positive note in this show is the character of Chad. The actor does a great job with the character and it's pretty much the only time I actually laugh at the show for being genuinely funny.

It's amazing how many people do this, which is why I try avoid the TV forum as much as possible.

I enjoy this show like I enjoy Empire, both a pretty good comedies and should never be taken seriously!

Demo went from 1.7 to 3.1

This episode wasn't quite as good as last week's. There were less memorable bits. But it's still a wickedly weird and hilarious show that's destined for cult status. I love it! I like it more than American Horror Story.

FX is going to do a marathon of the first 6 episodes Halloween night. Not like most people will be home to watch it. Not only is it Halloween but it's also a Saturday.

that's the point? and it gets WAY better.

Last night's episode was pretty great. The chase scene was terrible, though(as are most of this show's "horror" sequences) and those twins couldn't act to save their lives.

I only watch it for Niecy Nash. She's a hoot.

The "point" of this show is to be a horror-comedy. However, it only works as a comedy. The horror sequences fall flat.

[PopcornBandit]

Four episode in and I am loving this show! Chad Radwell may very well go down as one of my favorite television characters of all time. I also love the fact that the survivors of this season will be returning in the "sequel". Here's hoping we actually get a second season.

[Vlad Draculi]

This series has seriously gone down hill in the last two episodes. I'm about to call it quits.

This is easily my favorite show in the fall lineup.

Same here. This show just works. The comedy is fantastic. The horror could be better. I would have actually liked the death scenes to be serious in order to juxtapose the hilarious counterpart.
