The Songs of "Glee" Give Way to Terror

By Dave Itzkoff, NY Times, October 2, 2011

It is officially Fall now, so you know what that means, new television programs. While most of them have already started, such as "Whitney" and "The New Girl" there is still one more. The main difference is that this is completely different then anything else. The new show is called, "American Horror Story" and is by the creator of "Glee", Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk. This show is about a haunted house and a destructive family. The family, including a father, mother and teenage daughter, move into a new home to escape their troubled past. Unfortunately the home has a past of its own that is coming for them. I definitely find this appealing for a television show. Everyone remembers and loves "The Addams Family" and "The Munsters" so now there is a new family. Tons of people watch horror movies or documentaries for fun, so why not see it every week.
It makes sense that this kind of a show is coming out now because of the popularity of "Paranormal Activity" and many other horror franchises. This is newsworthy because it shows what it takes to create a new show and how the entertainment world effects everyone. i never really thought about what I was watching before, I kind of just watched. I like reading about pop culture because sometimes people need a break from the terrors and tortures of the real world.
Anyway watch "American Horror Story" Wednesday night on FX at 10:00pm.

Brand New "American" Family
