Behind the Screen: Scream Queens - FOX

For over two decades, MTV's The Challenge has been the proving ground where reality TV's fiercest competitors come to cement their legacies. What started as a Real World/Road Rules spinoff has evolved into one of the most physically and mentally demanding competition series on television.

The franchise's expansion — with spinoffs in the USA, UK, Argentina, and Australia — speaks to a global appetite for the brand of cutthroat competition and alliance-driven gameplay that Vevmo's community has been tracking since 2007.

Scream Queens - FOX

202mitch ·

Ryan Murphy is at it again. From the creator of Popular, Nip/Tuck, Glee, and American Horror Story comes a new genre-bending show sure to turn more than a few heads over its blatant offensiveness and over the topness. A love letter to the many slashers of the 80s, Scream Queens (Premiering TONIGHT at 8/7c) is what you would get if you threw the one-liners and *****iness of Heathers with the self aware dark humor of Scream into a blender without the lid on. It is a beautiful hot mess, with over the top campy acting by a cast of very familiar faces and a devil-masked killer sure to keep viewers guessing. Lead by Emma Roberts, the HBIC of Kappa Kappa Tau, and the ultimate 80s Scream Queen, Jamie Lee Curtis, the dean of the university.. all hell breaks loose when the girls and boys of the school's Greek Row begin to die off one by one.

"Wallace University is rocked by a string of murders. Kappa House, the most sought-after sorority for pledges, is ruled with an iron fist (in a pink glove) by its Queen *****, Chanel Oberlin (Emma Roberts). But when anti-Kappa Dean Cathy Munsch (Jamie Lee Curtis) decrees that sorority pledging must be open to all students, and not just the school's silver-spooned elite, all hell is about to break loose, as a devil-clad killer begins wreaking havoc, claiming one victim, one episode at a time. Part black comedy, part slasher flick, SCREAM QUEENS is a modern take on the classic whodunit, in which every character has a motive for murder... Or could easily be the next blood-soaked casualty."

Ryan Murphy has been known for creating awesome first seasons (his later ones not so much... ala Glee, Nip/Tuck, AHS), so I am definitely excited for this!! I love everything over the top, and if it's anything like the "I Know What You Did Last Spring Break" episode from Popular, this will be GOLD.

And if you were interested in knowing more about that Popular episode (cause I know you all are :P):

Definitely will be watching this to see if I can figure out who the killer is lol.

202mitch#6

My pre-season guess to the killer/s is going to be Grace (Skylar Samuels) & Chad (Glen Powell)... I think they'd be the most unexpected duo, but something there's just something about them. Grace is the main "good-girl".. the heroin/virgin of the slasher. It could be a Scream 4 cop-out if they make her the killer though, so i'm not sure (but out of her and her roommate Zayday (Keke Palmer), she looks more plausible). And Chad as the dumb preppy head of KKT's brother fraternity, with a weird bromance with Boone (Nick Jonas).. he seems like an easy kill and be forgotton character, but I think he'll stick around and surprise us. I don't see Chanel #2 (Ariana Grande), #3 (Billie Lourd), and #5 (Abigail Breslin) making it to the finale. Although they haven't showed much of her, Chanel #3 could surprise us... Billie is a newcomer to acting, and she could very well surprise us since she is so unknown. A lot of people are suspecting Pete (Diego Boneta), Chanel (Emma Roberts), and Dean Cathy (Jamie Lee Curtis) as possible killers, but they all just seem too obvious. Same goes for neck-braced Hester (Lea Michele).. which i'm doubting is a real neckbrace (but for that reason, she's too obvious). There's a bunch of other characters too (Officer Denise, Good-Guy Frat boy Early Grey, House Mother Gigi, Creepy father prof Wes) but there's not much to go off of them just yet.

They have done so much promoting for this show it's insane... I feel like i've watched the 2hr premiere already haha all well, I know i'll still enjoy it!

I hope Emma Roberts gives me fierceness and slayage like on AHS. That's pretty much the only reason I'm watching. Plus Jamie Lee Curtis.

You think Ryan Murphy would give all the Kelly Clarkson covers to Lea this season of Scream Queens?

Queen Emma or Keke better have some twerktastic solos or I'm cancelling the show.

Lol. Well, track record from glee, it will probably take him three more seasons to provide us with other singers besides Lea.

bluehatchet2#11

I feel like Lea's role is going to bother me...

But back on topic, I'm really digging this, seems pretty fun from the trailers. And I though that Popular clip, was part of Screamm Queens for a second there.

lmaooo that would interesting... I don't think they will go that over the top, but you never know. And really, Leslie Grossman is the only actress that can pull off something like that and make it seem easy/hilariousss!! Every time I see that clip I die of laughter. Definitely not everyone's cup of tea though haha

Gucci Mane#14

If this is anything like AHS, Ryan Murphy will just make up the plot as he goes, and the killer will be based on whoever he sees the viewers haven't suspected yet.

CMJ#15

This is such a good week for TV shows. Already like Blindspot last night and I can't wait for this show tonight.
