'AMERICAN HORROR STORY' RETURNS TONIGHT WITH A GREAT 'FREAK SHOW'

What to Watch on TV Tonight (10/8/14):

American Horror Story returns with its fourth season tale, Freak Show, and we just can't contain our excitement. Touted as the most anticipated, and best season yet, Freak Show is a disturbing drama set in Jupiter, Florida circa 1952. Jessica Lange assumes the leadership role once more, this time as German Elsa Mars and her traveling sideshow of freaks called "Elsa's Cabinet of Curiosities." Elsa's freak show is one of the last surviving shows in the country as the idea of circus begins to exclude oddities.

Previous 'AHS' players have returned for this installment including Kathy Bates as the bearded lady Ethel Darling, Angela Bassett as the three-breasted Desiree, Sarah Paulson as two-headed Bette and Dot Tattler, Even Peters as Billy the "Lobster Boy," and Emma Roberts as Maggie Esmeralda the fortune teller.

The main conflict of Freak Show pits the freaks against normal people as Elsa's troupe bands together to battle persecution of the townspeople. Oh and did we mention that a scary murderous clown is killing people?

The premiere episode has such strong imagery that it will transport you the world of the carny. You'll almost be able to smell what's inside those tents. 'Freak Show' airs at 10 pm on FX.

FALL 2013: CBS PREPPING 'HOW I MET YOUR FATHER'?

CBS wants to keep a sure-thing going with its popular hit How I Met Your Mother.

The network is already preparing a shoot-off of the sitcom, but from the female perspective. Tentatively titled, How I Met Your Father, the show would incorporate the same concept but with a new cast led by the female protagonist who tells the story of how she met her future husband and father of children. While none of the current cast would be included in the spin-off, there has been buzz that the character may appear in the series finale of How I Met Your Mother next spring. One element that may crossover to the new sitcom is McLaren's Pub. The frequent watering hole by Ted Mosby and company could also be the setting for the new gang of characters.

We only have one wish for the CBS executives and co-creators to consider: Bring in Barney! Barney Stinson has slept with so many women over the years that it would only be natural that he would have had a one-night stand with the future female Ted Mosby-character. Don't you think so?
