But it’s not in outer space.

Because that would be silly.

Or is it likeBlade Runnerrainy dystopia future?

OrPlanet of the Apeshuman-race-has-been-enslaved future?

IsAHSseason 8 in …. Ryan, is it in outer space?

Not space, he clarified.

Because that would be, like, crazy.

Not as crazy asAHS: Freak Show, but still pretty odd.

I told him and he fell out of his chair with joy.

We havent talked about that, Murphy said.

Its conceivable that they could overlap.

I mean, Sarah Paulson has done two shows for me that were shooting at the same time.

Were working on it, but its not going to be the next season, Murphy said.

Next season is season 8, and itll probably be the one after that.

I want all of them, he said.

I want Dylan, and Connie and Jessica [Lange].

But Im hopeful they will all be back.
