The 13th Season:

• While the show didn't invent the anthology series, it certain has helped shape the idea of the modern "limited series" with its anthology model. The biggest contribution of which was showing that a major television drama could reset itself every season while keeping the same creative identity.
• Each season gives viewers a new story, new characters, a new setting, and a different visual style - but keeps many of the same actors throughout as a sort of repertory company.
• That said, Creator Ryan Murphy has said that the seasons all take place in a much larger universe, and that the seasons are connected. Though the series is an anthology, we see returning characters and a deep lore throughout.
• That's what seems to be taking place here in the 13th season, as we will see so many returning favorites - its only a matter of time before we figure out what context in which we will see them.
