Constance Langdon, Sister Jude, The Supreme Fiona Goode, and Elsa Mars, all larger-than-life roles but one stands out to Lange above the rest. In a 2019 interview with Gold Derby, she reflects on her characters and their stories to determine her favorite. She ultimately lands on “Asylum” as the best though she has another season she’s also extremely proud of.

Lange agrees with the interviewer’s particular ranking and adds “Well, I never saw ‘Apocalypse’ so I don’t know. Of the four that I did, I would put them in exactly the order that you just did, ‘Asylum’ first, ‘Freak Show’ second, ‘Murder House’ third, and then ‘Coven,’ which was the other season that I did in fourth place. But I agree with you. That’s exactly how I would rate them.” Even fans agree with both on Reddit in emphasizing that “Asylum” is superior though some still name “Coven” their favorite. 

Lange agrees that while “Coven” was fun, it needed more thrills. “It’s funny because actually, I was stunned that year to get the Emmy for that part. But again, the part was very well-written. I didn’t particularly like the whole setup and season and story we were telling. But I don’t know. It was not my favorite. My very favorite, just from the experience of doing it, was ‘Freak Show.’ Although, I think ‘Asylum’ was the better season. But I loved ‘Freak Show.'”
