A returning horror show with a perfect Rotten Tomatoes score is a great American Horror Story: Delicate, the series' twelfth and most recent season, was rated as one of the worst in the entire franchise.
One of the most common frustrations that viewers had with American Horror Story: Delicate was the fact that it left so many unanswered questions that weren't answered in the season finale.

For viewers who were frustrated by American Horror Story: Delicate, a great alternative with a 100% Rotten Tomatoes score is available to stream now.
