Consider this thread my attempt at doing a timeline for the American Story franchise, consisting of the following shows:
  • American Horror Story (12 seasons, with a thirteenth forthcoming)
  • American Crime Story (3 seasons, with a fourth in development)
  • American Horror Stories (3 seasons, with a fourth set for release this October)
  • American Sports Story (First season currently releasing)
  • American Love Story (First season currently in development, waiting on more news to be released first)
I plan to kick things off this October for Halloween, because hey, it feels fitting, right? In terms of timestamps, I'll be relying on the Disney+ release of the shows for help with that. Seasons will be watched in the order they are released, and then placed accordingly.

Episode numbers are important. How about this?

2011
????
American Horror Story 1x01, "Murder House: Pilot"
American Horror Story 1x02, "Murder House: Home Invasion"

Alternatively, V2:
2011
????
American Horror Story: Murder House 1x01, "Pilot"
American Horror Story: Murder House 1x02, "Home Invasion"

Version 2 would have each season have the specific title of that season followed by the episode, so the second season would be American Horror Story: Asylum 2x01, "Welcome to Briarcliff" for example.

I think I prefer the second version.

V2 sounds good. I'll do that.
 
I've actually been in the middle of a rewatch of the show and have been keeping my own timeline. If you would like any input, just let me know.

Sounds good. If I have any difficulties, I'll let you know.

In any case, tomorrow I'll be giving the first episode of Murder House a watch (I'll add notes on the timeline). Just curious, but how scary/gory does the show get (since I've been pretty desensitized to violence as a result of stuff like The Boys and Scream, and I'm also digging horror films like the Alien/Predator series and certain Slasher franchises)?

It depends on the season. A season like 1984 for example has more slasher movie-level gore. If you're desensitized from stuff like The Boys, you should be fine. I've personally never really found the show scary (a lot of the show has more of a campy vibe) but I also don't really find much media to be scary. Since this is your first time watching, I'm curious to hear what you think.

Added "Pilot" to the timeline. It's a bit rough, but I'll work out the placement of scenes when I learn more down the line.

I'll go ahead and say you can get a little more specific. The pregnancy at the end of the episode is said to be 8 weeks along in the Halloween episode. So I have the family moving into the house in August and it's early September by the time Vivian gets pregnant.

Gotcha. I'll add those dates in due time.
