AMERIN HORROR STORY: NYC IS THE GAYT SEASON YET, BUT IS ANY GOOD?

A list of all gay, lbian, bisexual, transgenr and queer characters Amerin Horror Story. This uld be a nod to shownner Ryan Murphy, who is himself an openly gay man. Subtled NYC, the new stalment tak place the 1980s and chronicl a seri of murrs plagug the gay muny.

Posive: Amerin Horror Story has, somehow, never been gayer. Kickg off wh the beheadg of a closeted married man (lovely), the seri has never troduced this many leadg gay characters – and this is jt the first two episos.

Wh the gay serial killer narrative and all of the aforementned characters, Amerin Horror Story has never been this [limp wrist]; and this is a seri that has already been well-tablished as one of the queert TV history.

While the first two episos have primarily foced on gay men, Barbara’s lbian gang mandg more regnn for queer women Go’s magaze shows promise for future episos: gay men weren’t the only members of the LGBTQ+ muny to be targeted the 1980s, and ’s ccial that NYC reflects this. This might be the se, as the send episo se Theo channel Zachary Quto’s Asylum character as he abducts a gay man and imprisons him his basement.

Surely one mcle man leather and a gimp mask butcherg gay men while highlightg the social nstrats of the era and the homophobia of the NYPD is enough storyle for one season? But sadly, there’s not a lot of mp NYC eher which is nfg for a season that clus – bears repeatg – Patti LuPone’s vols on full display a gay bathhoe and a serial killer wh 12 abs nicknamed ‘Big Daddy’.
