I am into season 6. I don't think I made it that far through when it aired. I am enjoying it. It is about his issues but the medical stuff and the interaction among the cast make it worthwhile to me. At this point, I am too far into it to quit now.

His personal problems are what made him interesting.

Season ten of AHS is better than some of the previous seasons, but it being a mashup of The Shining and Salems Lot, maybe with a sprinkling of Interview With A Vampire, doesn't make it original.

Really? You're into long-debunked Eisenhower UFO conspiracies?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Only when it comes to The X-Files.

Only the X Files? But you just said that the 10th season of AHS is perhaps the best, so you are not enjoying it despite it being the best?
Or you just didn't come yet to 2nd part of the season?
