FX used to be my network. I was addicted to practically everything it offered up, including: Nip/Tuck, The Shield, Lucky, Rescue Me, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia and Dirt. But in recent years I’ve found myself falling out of love with the network. I quit watching Nip/Tuck when they killed someone off with teddy bear stuffing. Philadelphia changed after Danny DeVito joined and I found myself watching it less and less and then no longer at all. Rescue Me has had a great run, but in many ways it became repetitive to me. I’m not watching its final season. Today, Showtime and USA series have replaced my once beloved FX shows on my DVR.
Only one show remains “must watch” for me on FX, the brilliant Justified. If not for it, I have broken up with the cable network years ago. But now there is hope our relationship can be rebuilt! FX has released a trailer for American Horror Story and to be crass, it looks f’ing awesome!
Starring Friday Night Light’s Connie Britton, The Practice’s Dylan McDermott, Six Feet Under’s Francis Conroy, True Blood’s Denis O’Hare and Academy Award winner Jessica Lange, no FX show since Nip/Tuck has given me the water cooler vibe American Horror Story did as I watched its promo. Watch it after the jump!

"I play a guy who believes he's a vampire," Shiels says, laughing. "What is it with the vampire roles? I'm starting to believe I'm being typecast!"
Check out Shiels tonight on Nip/Tuck at 9 pm C/10 ET. While you're watching the show, log on to DC where I'll be live-blogging!
