They’ve had to sew together their own costumes and fix all the problems they created for themselves, with no one else to help them. And that was great.

But Apatow saw the potential to capture comedic lightning in a bottle and allowed his actors to improvise on-camera. The method led to a huge amount of film being used during the shoot, but the rewards are obvious....

American Horror Story has been bringing characters back since its fourth season back in 2014, Freakshow. It was at this time that Ryan Murphy revealed that all the seasons take place in the same universe, contrary to the anthology format. Since then, characters like Queenie, Constance, and Pepper have each popped up again (albeit briefly). With AHS: 1984 right around the corner, who knows how Murphy will continue this trend. Perhaps after the massive crossover of Apocolypse, Murphy might take a step back from the spillover approach....
