In not so surprising news,American Horror Story has been renewed for a fourth season. FX will be premiering the fourth season in 2014.
According to The Huffington PostJohn Landgraf from FX says, "Put simply Ryan Murphy is a master television producer. Time and time again he reinvents the form. What, he co-creator Brad Falchuk and their producers Dante Di Loreto, Tim Minear, Jennifer Salt, James Wong, Brad Buecker, Jessica Sharzer, Douglas Petrie, Alfonso Gomez-Rejon, Alexis Martin Woodall and the entire production team and cast responsible for the 'American Horror Story' franchise have done is nothing short of extraordinary. Every year, they create a riveting and brilliant new miniseries. 'AHS: Coven' is the best yet, and I have no doubt that the next installment will be even better."
American Horror Story: Coven, has been the biggest season for AHS. This season has been averaging 7.7 million viewers. The premiere episode "Bitchcraft" was the most watched of the series, with 5.58 million viewers.
American Horror Story leading actress, Jessica Lange who has played three different characters on the show so far, has signed on to say that she will be coming back for the fourth season, but it will be her last.
"I'm going to do the next season of this and hopefully a play and then one or two movies and then I think, maybe it's time to start something new in life."
However,show creator Ryan Murphy tells the The Hollywood Reporter,"Every year she says 'Ok that's my last one.' But she's already commited to the fourth series. I can see 'American Horror Story'going 10 years,12 years, 15 years. I think it's limitless because it re-energizes every year, and I would love for Jessica Lange to be part of it every year."
