Finished 2nd season of American Horror Story. I thought it had MUCH better acting, Lily Rabe should win an award. The first season didn't have bad acting by any means, it just didn't have anything award worthy, and every character in season 2 required an amazing acting job. The first season, though, had better story lines. Part of that may be that season 2 didn't really focus on the likeable characters like season 1 did, which is a big thing for me. I thought both season were good though.
