or do you need to have seen the previous seasons to "get it?"

overlapping characters. Many of the same actors from season to season playing different roles.

Ensemble troupe of actors, and "insider" Easter eggs to previous seasons and "Twisty" characters.

Each season references and pays tribute to some of our most familiar and iconic horror from cinema, TV and literature!

Each season can be viewed as stand alone without really losing anything.

However, each season after the first has subtle references to prior seasons that, imo, adds some extra flavor and enjoyment.

On a side note.. Episode 1 of cult.. AWESOME!!!

Just report the daily news via Trump and his machine of hate and terror.

Reality is much worse. I long for the presidency of the murdering Frank Underwood.

It is that bad.

My wife is a big fan of all those paranormal shows, and we liked that 'what if' theme.

But THIS year - in our post-Trump world - is PERFECT - AND HORRIFYING!

Lena Dunham and SCUM? Trump and Weinstein, "Me Too" campaign?

Where do they come up with these ideas?
