American Horror Story: Asylumwraps up its brilliant second season tonight but co-creator Ryan Murphy is already planning out the third instalment of his FX mini-series: EW has learned exclusively that season 1 star Taissa Farmiga (Higher Ground) is in talks to rejoin the series for season 3. Farmiga, who played the troubled teen Violet, would be one of the leads o AHS‘ very secretive third go-round and would join fellow alums Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, and Evan Peters.
Explains Murphy “I missed her this season. There wasn’t really a role for her. I feel very protective of her and I didn’t want her to go back into the loony bin—it was too dark. So I thought well ‘I want Taissa to be one of the leads next year.’ I called her up and pitched her the character for the season and she loved it and she said, ‘Yes let’s do it.’ So we’re in negotiations for her to headline season 3.”
Murphy told EW previously that he missed the Violet/Tate storyline from the first season and wanted season three to have more romance; Farmiga’s character will be involved in that part of AHS 3 which Murphy hopes to shoot in three different cities.

Anyone else SUPER excited to see Tai back on our televisions every week?

Explain please.
the first season is set in the present day, and it's about a family of three who move into a murder house (obv they don't know that in the beginning lol). there are flashbacks each ep to different people who have lived in the house previously... i don't know how much to say without spoiling you lol
seasons 2 stars quite a few people from the first season in completely different roles. it's a lot scarier compared to the season 1. it's set in the sixties, in an asylum for the criminally insane run by nuns. there's possession, murderers, mad scientists, etc.
And at first I hated the idea... but now I'm kinda in love with it.
