Magical Thinking Ratings & Reviews
AV Club
Emily L. Stephens
American Horror Story: Freak Show doesn't need more plotlines. It needs fewer.
Entertainment Weekly
Darren Franich
I'm convinced that this season of American Horror Story only really makes sense if you admit that the latest iteration of Denis O'Hare is Jedi mind tricking everyone.
Washington Post
Lauren McEwen
Delicious new characters are introduced, old scores are settled and the table is set for the final two episodes to be great.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Brian Moylan
Normally I would complain about the addition of what appears to be a major character in the third-to-last episode of the season, but I will not, mostly because his performance was just so wonderfully off-kilter and charming.
Observer
Drew Grant
We're liking this reinvigorated AHS: Freak Show. Keep up the good work.
The NitPic
Angela L. Harmon
At least some excitement has been brought back. At least they're having fun with the show. The drudgery of the rest of the season may actually be redeemed.
IGN Movies
Matt Fowler
"Magical Thinking" wasn't a bad episode of Freak Show. It was interesting, concise, and had a few big twisted moments... But this really became the Chester show.
Screen Rant
Kevin Yeoman
It will come as no surprise that, with only three episodes left, American Horror Story: Freak Show has found a way to introduce two new characters and insert them into the already crowded playing field that is season 4.
Baltimore Sun
Lacy Baugher
Returning from its holiday hiatus, American Horror Story kicks off the run-up to its finale with an episode that features another high-profile guest star, Neil Patrick Harris, and several gruesome twists for our regulars.
Paste Magazine
Ross Bonaime
Surprisingly effective here is the evolution of the relationship between Jimmy and his father Dell.
TV.com
Price Peterson
"Magical Thinking" was a good and solid episode of Freak Show that was full of thrills and chills and spills, but part of me felt like it should've been a midseason episode rather than the third-to-last.
Slant Magazine
Chuck Bowen
After "Orphans," a surprisingly confident and empathetic outing ... "Magical Thinking" finds the series resorting to its usual bag of boring, hyperbolically over-plotted tricks.
TV Equals
Mark Trammell
On the latest episode of American Horror Story: Freak Show, we got what was easily the best episode since the "Edward Mordrake" two-parter, with "Magical Thinking."
