Want to drum up interest in the new season of a popular TV show? That’s easy; just get straight to the freakin’ point. That’ ladies and gentlemen, is the route “American Horror Story: Freak Show” is taking with the first batch of actual footage released from Season 4, which literally opens with the line: “Where are the freaks? I’m getting bored.”
Then, we meet the cast. “It was in the fall when I realized the world I had known was forever doomed,” intones actress Sarah Paulson, who plays the dual roles of conjoined twins Dot and Better Tattler, as she approaches a menacing tent with Jessica Lange’s Elsa Mars. “I knew I was about to enter the gates of hell, but, like the inescapable pull of gravity, there was nothing I could do about it.”
