ELEVEN is set to fast-track the fourth season of American Horror Story “Freak Show” within a week of its US premiere.
While a date is not confirmed, it begins in the US on October 8th.
Returning for another season are Jessica Lange, Angela Bassett, Sarah Paulson, Emma Roberts, Frances Conroy, Denis O’Hare, Evan Peters, Gabourey Sidibe, Jamie Brewer and Kathy Bates.
Ryan Murphy recently said of the series, “The carnies historically were always thought of as lower than thieves, lower than vermin. They were not allowed to sit in certain parts of diners. They were not allowed in movie theatres. They were really ostracised from society. They were thought of as the dregs.
“So that’s going on as Jessica Lange’s character is trying to keep the sideshow going and it’s not working until she stumbles across two girls, conjoined twins played by Sarah Paulson, who may or may not be responsible for heinous activities that have gone on in the town.”
Recently honoured with two Primetime Emmy Awards, the latest instalment of American Horror Story begins its tale in the quiet, sleepy hamlet of Jupiter, Florida.
The year is 1952. A troupe of curiosities has just arrived to town, coinciding with the strange emergence of a dark entity that savagely threatens the lives of townsfolk and freaks alike. This is the story of the performers and their desperate journey of survival amid the dying world of the American carny experience.

This could be problematic, assuming Eleven also fast-tracks Supernatural and Sleepy Hollow, consider the three of them were all on Monday nights.
Good move! I doubt AHS will be able to top last season with those guest appearances by Stevie Nicks … but we shall soo see! 🙂
Can’t wait!
The only thing I watch on Eleven is Bob’s Burgers, I had no idea this was going to be fast tracked. Thanks for the heads up David!
