The appetite of American Horror Story has grown from year to year in terms of ratings and awareness, with last year’s Freak Show garnering the biggest audience and most Emmy noms than any iteration preceding.
每年的收视率逐步上升再加上各界的火热关注度,《美国恐怖故事》的「胃口」可是一年比一年大啊,去年播出的《美国恐怖故事:畸形秀》可是打破了该剧系列的收视纪录,并且凭借该季的出色表现获得了此系列以来最多的艾美奖提名。

So, it’s not altogether surprising that Ryan Murphy and his writing team are considering doing two iterations of the series going forward. “Next year we might do a fall American Horror Story and a spring,” says Murphy. “We have to decide.”
所以,如此大的殊荣及成功想必制作人Ryan Murphy与他的团队考虑「连作两季」的想法并不让人吃惊。Murphy说:“明年我们也许在秋季档与春季档各播放一季,一切都要考虑中。”

He adds, “We’re doing something that we’ve never done before on the show where we’re doing two different groups of writers rooms. Some of our writers will be bouncing around but a whole different group coming in late August. The next thing we’re crafting up is very, very different than this. Not smaller. But just not opulent. More rogue and more dark.”
他还说:“我们将尝试以前从未尝试过的,我们将分为两个剧本创作团队,其中的一些作家将会为新剧本集思广益,进行头脑风暴,然而另一只完全不同的团队将在8月底诞生。下一季的故事将会与该季大相径庭,虽说不会有此季豪华,但将有更大的世界观,更加迷离黑暗。
