AMERICAN HORROR STORY Renewed for Seasons 8 and 9!
FX sure does love its American Horror Story series! They've ordered two more installments that will take the series all the way through season nine! As a fan of the show, I'm pretty damn excited about this news!
The least season was such an odd, unpredictable, surprising, and crazy fun story. After everything that creators Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk have done with the show the past six seasons, I can't wait to see what they have in store for seven, eight, and nine! I can't help but think they already have their concepts planned out and ready to be developed. Fox doesn't even know what those plans are for season eight and nine!
FX Networks CEO John Landgraf said that the series renewals came about from “good numbers and faith” and “out of trust and good will.” He went on to say:
“American Horror Story launched the modern limited series revolution and – as evidenced by the most recent installment ‘Roanoke’ – it remains as vital today as when Murder House stunned audiences six years ago. Each new chapter is a cultural event, beloved for every new twist in imagery, style, cast and plot.”
Season seven is currently in development, and both Sarah Paulson and Evan Peters are set to return. At this point, all that's been revealed about the plot is that it will take place in modern day. We'll just have to be patient until we find out more details. We didn't even really know what was going one with season six until it aired on TV!
