We first saw her play a psychic medium in season one and has remained present in the <em>AHS\u00a0<\/em>franchise for the past nine out of ten seasons. But could her time on the show be making its final run? Paulson appeared as a guest on <em>Watch What Happens Live<\/em>, and she revealed that she&#8217;s &#8220;probably&#8221; done with her tenure in Ryan Murphy&#8217;s horror stories.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think this is my last season of Horror Story, probably,&#8221; Paulson said to host, Andy Cohen. &#8220;I mean, I don&#8217;t know. Ever time he comes to me with some whack-a-doodle character, I tend to be like, &#8216;Yes, let&#8217;s do it!&#8217; So we&#8217;ll see.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t the first time Paulson has expressed doubt in her\u00a0<em>American Horror Story\u00a0<\/em>career. Months back, she said that the only reason she appeared on season six, &#8220;Roanoke,&#8221; was due to a \u201cresponsibility and contractual obligation.\u201d She admitted to feeling &#8220;underwhelmed&#8221; and trapped within the character she played that season.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was so underwhelmed by the whole experience,\u201d Paulson said at the time. \u201cI felt really kind of trapped by my responsibility and my contractual obligation to do <em>American Horror Story<\/em>. As much as it\u2019s my home and I\u2019ve loved it always, it was the first time I felt like I wish I could have gone to Ryan [Murphy] and said \u2018Please let me sit this one out, let me out.'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t the first time we&#8217;ve lost a keystone player in the\u00a0<em>American Horror Story\u00a0<\/em>universe. Jessica Lange left the cast in January 2013, and the show arguably hasn&#8217;t been the same since. So let us see how it works out with Sarah Paulson.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":29250,"featured_media":35479,"template":"","format":"standard","categories":[38,16],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v18.5 (Yoast SEO v20.4) -
