What Seasons Of American Horror Story Is Evan Peters In

Evan Peters: An American Horror Story Fixture, Right?
Let's be real. When you think of American Horror Story (or AHS, as the cool kids say), you probably think of Evan Peters. He's practically synonymous with the show! But how many seasons actually feature his glorious, often tormented, self?
The Obvious Ones (Because Duh!)
Okay, let's knock out the easy stuff. He's in Murder House. That's where it all started, right? Who can forget Tate Langdon and his, uh, complicated relationship with Violet? Definitely a season defining role.
Asylum? Yep! He suffers SO MUCH in that one. Poor Kit Walker, abducted and accused!.
Must Read
He's a frat boy in Coven. A zombie in Hotel. Even a cult leader in Cult. Basically, he's all over the place.
Keep 'Em Coming
And then there is Roanoke. Did you forget that one existed? His appearance there was more like a cameo.

We can't forget Apocalypse. It brought back a lot of familiar faces. Evan played a significant role. Again.
1984 is the season, where he played a fitness instructor. It was fun, if a little over-the-top, campy.
Hold Up... Not EVERY Season?
Now, here's where things get interesting. And maybe a little controversial. Prepare yourselves.

He's not in NYC. It was the first season without him. I know. Shocker!
He is also absent from Double Feature. No Evan Peters in that one either! Are we sure this is AHS?

My (Possibly Unpopular) Opinion
Okay, unpopular opinion time. While I adore Evan Peters, AHS can survive without him. GASP! I said it!
Some seasons are still great, even without his signature brand of angst and intensity. He is missed though! It is hard to imagine AHS without him.
I am not saying that I don't want him to be back. I just think that some seasons have shown they can survive without him.

The Verdict: Evan's AHS Scorecard
So, to recap: Evan Peters has been in most, but not all, seasons of American Horror Story. He's a major player, but the show isn't entirely dependent on him.
He has gifted us with iconic characters. He has added so much to the show. It is hard to imagine a world where there is no Evan Peters in AHS.
So, next time you're watching AHS, pay attention. Is Evan in this one? If not, maybe it's time for a re-watch of Murder House...for research purposes, of course!
