Heather Hogan Autostraddle Maybe I'm a curmudgeonly old woman who can't stand the flippant way these three male writers treat female identity politics. Jun 26, 2018 Full Review Ed Power Daily Telegraph (UK) Shiny, gory and whip-smart, Scream Queens thus attempted to pummel the viewer into submission with sheer, rictus-grinning relentlessness. And it worked. Rated: 4/5 Oct 27, 2015 Full Review Rob Sheffield Rolling Stone Let's call it right now: Scream Queens is already looking like the smartest move Ryan Murphy's ever made - it has all the best elements of Glee and American Horror Story, but it tops them both. Sep 29, 2015 Full Review Terence Johnson AwardsCircuit.com Something starts clicking and the show finds the scary funny shocking mix it's looking for and the template is there for what should be one of fall's more entertaining shows. Rated: 2.5/4 Aug 27, 2018 Full Review Tom Fitzgerald and Lorenzo Marquez Tom & Lorenzo It's too much of a cartoon - and not even a good one. Jun 21, 2018 Full Review Joe Reid Decider We're already coming back for season two, even if we have no idea where these characters could possibly go from here. It'll probably be fun to find out, though. Dec 19, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews

angela g Season one is better than season 2 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/15/25 Full Review Platinum S If you love campy thrillers and pop culture this is the perfect show for you. it’s in your face, the jokes are nonstop and you literally won’t be able to stop watching. i have watched season 1 and 2 over 3 times each and i can easily say i would be beyond ecstatic if they brought this show back. even though the shows vibe is very 2015, it still feels like it could be a timeless classic. this show has a cult following for a reason and i truly believe it will only become more popular overtime, i may sound biased but god is this show good. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/28/24 Full Review sofia g I really tried. In the beginning I was really hoping the first scene was going to end with a director shouting "cut!", and it would all have been the filming of a movie within the series, but no. You're watching people pretend and overdo everything. I don't care about the mystery, it's just too bad. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/13/24 Full Review onio w one of my favorite shows, to be honest, the mix of drama and comedy was perfect. the weird and dumb decisions the characters made were SO funny I laughed my fucking ass off Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/07/23 Full Review Andy S (I'm Mistletoe Virus I'm saying I like this show!) We want season 3! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/12/23 Full Review blegh shock humor without humor Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews
