The American Horror Story Coven DVD collects all 13 episodes of the anthology's third season, which aired on FX from October 9, 2013 to January 29, 2014. 20th Century Fox released The Complete Third Season as a four-disc set on October 7, 2014.
This is a Region 1 DVD, the standard for US and Canadian players, so it plays in US DVD players and in Blu-ray players. Episodes are in widescreen (1.78:1) with English Dolby Digital 5.1 sound and English SDH, French and Spanish subtitles. The season is rated TV-MA.
Coven is set in present-day New Orleans at Miss Robichaux's Academy, a school for young witches descended from Salem. Zoe Benson, played by Taissa Farmiga, discovers she is a witch and enrolls there, just as the coven fights for its survival. The season also flashes back to the Salem witch trials of 1692.
Jessica Lange plays Fiona Goode, the coven's Supreme, and Sarah Paulson plays her daughter Cordelia, who teaches at the school. Kathy Bates plays the socialite Delphine LaLaurie, with Frances Conroy, Evan Peters, Lily Rabe, Emma Roberts and Denis O'Hare in the main cast.
The season earned 17 Primetime Emmy nominations. Jessica Lange won for Lead Actress and Kathy Bates for Supporting Actress, and the show also won Creative Arts Emmys for costumes and hairstyling.
The location featurette goes behind the scenes in New Orleans, which makes the American Horror Story Coven DVD a good fit for fans of the setting as well as the story.

At least among my friends who like AHS, this season is a bit controversial
At least among my friends who like AHS, this season is a bit controversial. Half of them hated it, half of them loved it. I fall into the latter category.
A very, very brief synopsis of this season: A young woman discovers that she is a witch and attends a boarding school for witches. The school is in turmoil however as it needs to find a new Supreme to lead the school and there are conflicts with a rival group. This season, like every season of AHS, is a stand alone. You do NOT need to watch the previous two seasons first.
One of the big complaints I noticed is that this season is “campy.” I thought that was part of the appeal of this season. Without posting any spoilers, I enjoyed watching alliances form and change and people coming together for a common cause. It reminded me a bit of Harry Potter, but with more blood/terror.
The really best part in my eyes was the fantastic acting jobs. Angela Basset is incredible. Sarah Paulson shines. And Jessica Lange… Need I say more? The whole cast meshes well and brings life into their characters.
As mentioned earlier, every season is a standalone season. You can start with this season or any other season and not miss out on anything major (there are a few connections between the seasons that you may miss out on until later, but missing these won’t take anything major away from the experience). They each have a different flavor to them, so just because you don’t like this one doesn’t mean you won’t find something enjoyable about the others. Check them all out. It really is a great series.

One…Hot…Season
The Daily Beast calls this show “Creepy, hilarious, and scary good. It promises to be the most terrifying, funniest, and best yet”. An all-star cast including Jessica Lange, Kathy Bates, and Angela Bassett play the roles of very powerful witches giving classes to young witches in a magic school. The young witches are under constant threat due to ignorance and bigotry and must be protected by the school leaders but not all leaders are good for the students as you will see. One of the younger witches is hiding her true and horrifying power(s) while the Supreme Witch, endowed with incredibly powerful skills overall, must face a new enemy in a local Voodoo priestess/Queen famously named Marie Loveau, the New Orleans top Voodoo practitioner(based on the actual woman’s life). Kathy Bates plays the role of an immortal woman cursed by witches for mercilessly beating African slaves in gruesome ways. This TV series broke every rule known by the FCC with nudity, language, violence, and horror. Enjoy!

Great show, hope it goes on forever!
A lot of people I know seemed to dislike this season, but I loved it! While, I must say, it’s not as horrific and eerie as the past two seasons of American Horror Story, it still holds up pretty well in my opinion. The cast fits perfectly together and Angela Bassett, Kathy Bates, and Jessica Lange are really what kept me watching. Their evilness and egotistical attitudes throughout the show were so well portrayed, considering the fact that I doubt they are really that evil in their personal lives. Despite loving seasons 1 and 2 mainly for the darkness of the themes, I liked that this season wasn’t as heavy on horror, unless you consider witchcraft scary.
