This season, aptly subtitled Asylum, focuses on Briarcliff Manor, a mental institution in the 1960s.

Remember the days before college when you had to worry about report cards being sent to your house? You would get home everyday, a nervous wreck, wondering if your parents knew about the D you had in geometry. Well, those days are long gone.
