Am I the only one who doesn't find Gaga outstanding in Hotel?

I have been rewatching some scenes from Hotel with Gaga in it and tbh, I can't really find anything outstanding. It's serviceable. Just not award-worthy. It might just be that she doesn't have a lot to work with for her character. After all, she's a cold-blooded vampire. There isn't really as much emotional edge to her as, let's say, Fiona Goode. If Gaga really wants to show her acting skills, she needs a character that gives her more. But right not, she's no Jessica Lange. Honestly someone else in the show should have been nominated for the Golden Globes. That's just my opinion pls don't kill me...

I adore Gaga so much, but I agree with you. It was okay, there were a few moments that were amazing, but I'm gonna always look at Sarah P. and her acting throught the season. Perfection!

I think her acting was okay for a popstar. But she shouldn't do it for a career, which she isn't atm, and hopefully won't. She would need a lot of practicing and longer experience in order to be great.

well, Hotel was so bad I was just staying for Gaga basically

the plot went no where, lots of ideas going around but nothing grounded

so before I say anything about the acting I'll bash the plot first

Cause once you let it go you better know it's gone

Usually a full season of a 13 episode show allows the viewer to form an opinion on someone's debut acting role, but I'm gonna wait for season 6 and A Star Is Born to form mine. The Countess was a tricky character.

I loved her and anticipated scenes where she was involved. The latter part of the season convinced me she was good. Sure, she doesn't have the subtle nuances a genius like Lange has (yet) but she did represent the Countess perfectly. A being out of this world with quiet power that everyone fears.

Inside, we are really made the same. 🕊

I think she's mostly pretty amazing, but in some dialogues she kinda speaks it awkwardly

Aka with Chloë Sevigny. I thought Evan Peters and Sarah Paulson brought out the best in her.

i absolutely loved her scenes in the later episodes, especially in Episode 11, 'Battle Royale'.

the final scene with Evan Peters and Mare Winningham at the dining table after her transition gives me chills; she doesn't have much dialogue in the scene, it's her presence.
this presence is really what won many people over throughout the season, including the cast themselves. for example:

"Gaga is an emotionally available actor, like Jessica. She reminded me of Jessica many times."- Sarah Paulson

I agree that Gaga's character was kind of not that great-great, but I also think it's because the whole season was just.. meh. Super meh. It didn't give the actors much to play with, so I kind of understand the 'low energy' Gaga was giving. Heck, even Hypodermic Sally was a bit boring, and she was one of the more interesting characters. Wes and Chole's characters however could die and I wouldn't care because they're just that boring and unimportant

For her first starring role, Ryan gave her a character which fit like a glove. And while there were some strange line deliveries, which has more to do with experience than with actual ability, there were many moments (large and small) which were extremely impressive. She outacted seasoned professionals like Cheyenne Jackson and Wes Bentley, and held her own against the rest. Not bad for a start, if you ask me.

She felt very misplaced during the season but she had her moments. I liked the scene where she smacked James's face and screamed 'Are you out of you goddamn mind!?' I got goosebumps from that scene.
