Imo it has to be from season 3, it was just such a lame forgettable role, all it was is he was a college frat boy that gets killed and then brought back as a bumbling zombie, and after that he has next to no lines throughout the rest of the season.

From the time i first watched season 3 i was constantly thinking "really? this is what you give Evan Peters?".

Almost all his other characters throughout the show has been charismatic or interesting or fun to watch, but his role from season 3 was none of those.

How is he supposed to give more when he’s supposed to play a bumbling zombie? Blame the writing not the actor.

Where exactly did i blame Evan Peters? I was clearly blaming the writers. I didn't mean his worst character in terms of his acting i mean in terms of the character he was given to play.

Sorry I thought you meant “this is what you give Evan Peters?” like “you can’t give more Evan Peters?”.

I dont quite understand how Peter Evans hasnt stuck A list status in Hollywood yet and Isnt getting/being sought after for Major roles....

He's just an Incredible actor...His work on AHS is Stunning...

He reminds me of Ben Foster, Foster is literally one of the best actors working today, He has OWNED and Stole the movie in every role he takes, Yet for some reason just hasnt hit it big yet...

I feel like with BOTH Evans and Foster they are going to eventually get that career defining role that launches them into superstardom

His season 6 role was even more forgettable. It was also his shortest.

Yeah true but it was still better than what he was saddled with in S3.

I agree with your feelings on the Season 3 character, but also the points that it's the writing, not the acting.

I also thought his character in Season 6 was lame and not well-developed. But can also blame that on the fact that we only knew him as his actual character for what, 3 episodes?

I also wasn't wild about him in Season 5. Or I was. It's more that the character was really cool, but it was lame that they had to pretend he was being someone other than HH Holmes

I agree with you on his Coven role. Very bad writing there. A close 2cd worst would be Kai from Cult.

Ironically my favorite role is from my least favorite season; JPM from Hotel.
