that is the case. ariana mentioned in interviews cos she wasn’t supposed to be in it. she met with ryan murphy & he had told her about the show & she loved the idea so much she wanted to be apart of it in some way, even saying she’d wanna be the “drew barrymore of the show” :))

[@ZarinaRae]

Scream Queens is such a criminally underrated show. I watched this show when it aired and when it got canceled I was so upset. Emma Roberts does a great job as Chanel #1, and I actually tuned into the show to watch her. I was a big fan of her in American Horror Story. I am so happy to hear that season 3 is being worked on right now, it shouldn't of been canceled in the first place.

[@Stephanie-qy9sm]

The only reason I had no issue with what Chanel said was because I have met people who actually talk like this. Not as explicitly because Chanel is a caricature but the constant micro aggressions and just general lack of care for how they talk exists. I have always seen it as a critic of people like that not an endorsement of their behaviour.

[@dawn6199]

a big correction is that the girls in Heather are actually named Heather those aren’t fake names…Heather was just a very common name at the time

[@FreeToBeAFreak]

@@desolatemess9612 the only member of the heathers clique not named heather is Veronica Sawyer (“are you a heather?” “No I’m a Veronica”) but she isn’t told to change her name, and she’s more of an unofficial member they add once they find she has a skill they can use (and she asks them to join). Like she says, they’re more like coworkers. The others are actually named heather

[@havannahwild2817]

It's inspired by the Heathers all having the same name, just with Chanel being a forced name to show Chanel #1's power over the others

Thanks for going into this deep dive, Serena. This show was campy, sure, but it embraced it, and knew what it was trying to be. It worked better in the university setting than in the hospital, in my opinion.

[@SerenaSkybourne]

A uni setting suits this show ☺️

[@atinyevil1383]

I think if they had done the anthology thing that they were planning and set it in the hospital with different characters, it would have been better. I think what killed season 2 is that they brought back the Chanels and stuck them in a setting where they don’t fit.

[@soandso3676]

When it comes to the offensive things Chanel says, I think it says more about her coming from her privileged bubble background. Her circles were kind of WASP-y, she was never going to be called out for her abject (not even casual) racism. Moreover, she’s obviously from what would be considered nouveau riche, with little to know parental supervision. So a rich, white girl that never was taught social boundaries, only ruthless enterprise, I’m not surprised she has no filter for her awfulness. I wouldn’t condemn the writers as “this is something they want to say and only use Chanel as a mouthpiece”. I think it’s just an honest portrayal of how some silver spoon, heiress, entitled college girls are. Narcissistic, offensive, never been told “no”.

[@heavenlyarianator6335]

There's a cool horror show with a great ending twist and intresting characters called Dead of Summer. It was only on for one season years ago. But it was summed up and finished so that's okay because the only way it could've continued without ruining the first season would be if it was an anthology series like AHS. The actress behind Beck from You plays the main "final girl" type character.

[@449Silverfox]

Omg yeeeees!! That show deserves so much recognition it really was amazing! I'd love for Serena to do a deep dive on it!

[@BetterWithBob]

Chad Radwell is just...omg the show gave us Glen Powell and he nailed that character. And it definitely seems as though Emma Roberts shined more in the mean girl roles. I was never a fan but she was hysterical as Chanel.

[@godisjihyo3615]

you should give ahs 1984 a watch if you havent yet. she killed it in the girl next door role !

[@danishaffer6099]

Gracie’s mom was also the president of KKT and there the night the girl in the bath tub died. She was kind of the whole reason, “waterfalls is my song!”

[@davidkonevky7372]

I thought that was genius, it's a subversion of a really specific part of the "chosen one" trope where the main character is constantly compared to their parents. Grace in this case thinks her mom was the girl in the bathtub because "there's no way my mom was a bitch, she has to be the good girl like me"

[@madelynh7052]

i absolutely love the email Chanel sends to the whole campus because when i was at uni a real sorority sister did something like that and it got national attention. it was a great parody of it.

[@adamsmoberly]

The heathers in Heather all have the same name, and not named after the main mean girl. Just a common name which I can attest there are girls in the same school and grade with the same name. Even Barbie in her newest movie and tv show has a friend named Barbie Roberts, so they call themselves Brooklyn and Malibu.

I miss this show and I am excited for Season 3!

[@Sabina_729]

In the scene where the Chanel’s were beating up the guy that harassed them, I think it was supposed to be a cringy and to point out that the Chanel’s are very unsupportive of other girls but are still preaching about feminism

[@hhyperbaIIad]

regarding the comments on chanel, im pretty sure that chanel's character and kappa kappa tou as a whole is supposed to be a parody on rich, white suburban girls who act like chanel but are more secretive about it. chanel oberlin being such an obviously racist, bigoted bully could bring up a discussion about the prejudice and toxicity within sororities.

[@schokigirl1989]

The Boyfriend being the killer (and the whole first time thing) is from Scream, is it not? I'm not into Horror that much, but I really like it if it is paired with satire or/and humor. That's why I liked Scream Queens. Nice to know, that there is gonna be a new season.

YASSS SCREAM QUEENS 😍 I actually watched season 2 first because it was what was on TV at the time and I thought it was entertaining but season 1 is iconic lol Edit: also "Shantel why you got a knife in your throat" is my favorite scene from the show omg 😂

[@thaboiinblue]

For me, one of the biggest disappointments about season two was the fact that it would have made the most sense to truly have Zayday truly step up and be the new good girl protagonist, contrasting Chanel’s bad girl protagonist, such as the case in season one with Grace and Chanel. I felt like it SEEMED like they were headed in that direction at first but then it’s all but abandoned and the whole season falls flat over it and other things. Zayday was painfully underdeveloped and should have had more to do, but once again Ryan Murphy is in love with Black and ethic characters being supporting characters rather than main ones, even when sometimes the ethnic characters show such amazing promise (Mercedes and Santana from Glee come to mind). Season one Zayday was primarily the Black best friend and honestly it was a sheer miracle she didn’t die as I had suspected. Season two saw Grace no longer involved and thus Zayday isn’t really BFFs with anyone (I suppose Number 5 came close as the two unexpectedly became friends) and she was just out of focus as the season went on, and once again poorly developed. But again, there were WAY more things wrong with season 2 than just Zayday, but I thought elevating her might have helped matters, even just a little.

[@maggievasquezr]

I loved how the series absolutely nailed greek life. hell week is real, sororities are typically closest with only one or two frats, and being greek is all-consuming for a lot of people. from the pins to "rush parties", it all gave me PTSD. also love the dig at KKG with KKT

[@shoorooloo]

SO glad someone else couldn't stand the cafeteria scene where the Chanels beat up the guy hitting on them. I always assumed Ryan Murphy felt he needed to make up for some of the more mean spirited jokes with a feminist message, but hearing Chanel say that misogynist comments can cause eating disorders, while in other episodes complaining about "fatties and ethnics" did not give what Murphy thought it gave

[@fae_kaspiche]

i think it was meant to be ironic

[@femalegays]

tbh i immediately saw it as a reflection/satire of white feminism and how shallow and violent it is. like it's not that deep, but it low key is in that way since that's how a lot of white feminists or radfems act irl, albeit exaggerated. even then, you can't really take that scene THAT seriously to cringe given literally the rest of the show before and after

I think Grace was supposed to be the killer but they changed the plan mid way through. Initially when they advertised the show they promised at least one member of the main cast would be killed in each episode and only 4 would survive in the end but I think because the audience fell in love with all the Chanel's, Denise, the dean and Chad etc. they decided to save them all. It was also supposed to be an anthology series like American Horror Story but they then decided to keep all the good characters and carry them on into s2 and that doesn't work in a slasher show because it was clear certain people definitely wouldn't die.

Like even in Glee he didn’t want to give Quinn a redemption arc but let Rachel get away with a lot. The coffee house scene where she talked about “white girl pumpkin spice” triggered me more than I’m proud to admit since I had an emotionally abusive ex friend who made those types of comments towards me a lot. But no one believes that she was bullying me because she was so good at playing the “wholesome girl next door” and I have always been hyperfem and closed off from people I don’t know well

[@mariaklotz6629]

I May be wrong, but my interpretation of scream queens is that it portrays that an awful, abusive system hurts everyone - even the people who are privilged in this system. The system in KKT really reminded me of patriarchy. The girls who were bullied the most and had no privillage were the pledges. They were treated horribly, but the Chanels - the priviliged Group that were upholding this system were facing unrealistic sick expectations about their weight, looks, status etc. In our society men benefit from the patriarchal standards, even though they are also hurt by them. The expectations of being a "real man", "a provider", "the alpha male" that are supposed to dominate other groups around them. In the Chanels case it was really simillar. They were bullying any other girl around them for not being "skinny enough" / "White enough" or "rich enough" but in reality the system also made sure that the Chanels felt like they are never enough (Chad didnt wanted Chanel #1 even after she starved herself/the Radwells called Chanel "desperate poser" even though she was on the same material status as them/people calling Hester "fat" even though she was a normal weight). Yes, the Chanels were benefiting from the system. Yes, they were upholding all the toxic norms in KKT. But in reality they were treated as bad, as they have been treating the pledges of KKT. It was like a circle of abuse in the story. Idk if anyone agrees. Also, sorry for mistakes. English is not my first language.

I think, as a member of a few of the communities in which the nasty comments might be directed (POC + LGBT), it makes a huge difference knowing Ryan Murphy directed this considering he himself is gay as well as having directed Pose, a show about black ballroom culture with amazing representation and characters. It allowed me to trust that Chanel is the butt of the joke, rather than the humour being found in the validity of her statements. That being said, I do wish occasionally the show made it easier? (idk what word to use) to find humour in her character when she did make these nasty comments.

Hey, regarding information on Scream Queens season 3, Ryan Murphy teased the return of the series with an instagram post from September 2019, he said "So many people recently have been asking me about the rebooting or continuing SCREAM QUEENS (RIP, taken too soon). Emma, Billie, Lea and I have mused on it, but question: should it be a six-episode limited? A catch-up movie? Who should I bring back? Would love your thoughts. So many questions....". He later confirmed this in a reply to a comment saying that he was working on it. However, he deleted the post and the comment (presumably following the Lea Michele drama). The rights are owned by FOX, so it's not Ryan Murphy's decision to make the final choice. I think the project has fallen through as there has been no news since 2019, but let's hope anyway! ✨💅

I loved the show... Is a dark comedy, you can take it seriously 😒🙄

[@AlwaysKDawg]

I loved insatiable and scream queens. The dark humor and social commentary is great

[@cancelled.8643]

scream queens is so iconic i’m so exited to hear what u think🌞 in my opinion it’s just so funny and i also really enjoy the plot y’all go watch it💘

[@lollydolly4590]

This show is so stupid and I love it. Also imo Denise Hemphill is just as iconic as Chanel

[@sharyebethancourt3660]

The way she just glossed over the actress that played Chanel 3. 😫😩😭😭

[@starlightnight5593]

Can we all agree that Chanel's outfits are so awesome and trendy 🥰.

[@DrGregoryHouseIT]

I remember this show. I rarely laughed and the mystery wasn't very interesting. I liked the end of s1 though. The most annoying thing is that this show all but stated that the main cast would be killed off week by week which it didn't happen.

[@raptorkvn]

"gonna film this as quickly as I can" *looks at runtime* Hmmm...I'm excited to see if you managed to finish before they returned

[@SerenaSkybourne]

i managed it haha

[@jordanriegel5082]

This show deserved so much more air time. It’s so good and campy,

[@gingerkatherina]

I love this sooooo much ❤️❤️❤️❤️ So happy you liked the series as well. It's been a while since I watched it and it's suuuuper nice to listen to the story all over again 😍

[@gracelembejek2083]

I WAS WAITING FOR THIS ONE

[@chenwingsee]

the first season of scream queens is honestly Incredible but the second season i could not get into

[@velvetdawson617]

YESSSSS! I love this show and this video xx

[@SerenaSkybourne]

Luvv you

[@pmf1324]

You nailed the dresscode 😜

[@SerenaSkybourne]

I did my best 😁

[@JustAHorrorShow]

Season 3??? Did I hear you say season 3 is in the works???? AAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!

[@angelaholmes8888]

I don't know how I should feel about a season 3 because even though I love season 1 I hated season 2

[@josephs6717]

58:40. Channel does not simply “write and email”. It’s the missive to end all missives😂. (Based on an actual sorority girls email.)

[@annakrpatova3429]

I did not get how so many people hated this show, for me, it was the best satire of today's age, maybe they didn't realize it was a satire and should not be taken literally but that seems so obvious 😐

[@SocialExperiment232]

this show was so cool! Campy and cheesy but it knew it and did it well. I feel like rewatching now lol

[@MK_1Ultra]

Insatiable was hilarious. Screw everyone that didn't enjoy it. Scream Queens is absolutely intelligent and I think at the time it was great, because it was before 2017 shift in world wide sensitivity and PC terminology and cultural awareness which has really ruined comedy.

[@skurinski]

Exactly. I hate this woke world now

[@kellystan4597]

Good comparison to Insatiable. When I first heard about insatiable I heard about the backlash and as someone with a history of eating disorders I was like nahhh not the show for me. But! Somehow I did end up watching it and really enjoyed it. The main character is a BAD person and the offensive bits felt like the joke was the cringe, such as The Office or similar shows. It is satirical, not genuine. I didn’t end up watching more than one season of Scream Queens but it definitely has the same vibe.

[@justanordinarydemigay5243]

One thing is that Ryan Murphy seems to have it out for bisexuals, biphobia is a common thing in his shows

[@angelaholmes8888]

Yeah that's so true unfortunately 😥

[@S0lar_Ant]

This video made me cry because I love scream queens and never hear anyone talking about it 😭

[@HotnHeretical]

I find that the difference between scream queens and insatiable is that, often, the horrible things they do and say in insatiable are the actual joke, where as with scream queens, the joke is that these characters are awful and stereotypical, like with Family Guy. As for the "predatory lez", I'm 95% sure it's supposed to be a joke about horrors long running antagonistic relationship with queer people, similarly to how they treat race in the show. The show is a little hamfisted sometimes, but little references like that can go over your head as well. However, I do find the way they handle minorities and social issues leads them to fall flat on their face more than once. I really like this show, but it doesn't seem that they know when they need to take the joke to the point of actual commentary.

[@skurinski]

Makes me want to watch Insatiable. Not PC comedy? Awesome

[@destiny2980]

I still remember when this show first dropped LMAO everybody and their mama’s were watching it 😭

[@ToyCircle]

Right ? But it was like popular for a hot minute then noone cared about it anymore.

[@philliprivera3283]

Wait until you watch season 2

[@SerenaSkybourne]

☺️☺️

[@josi-elaine]

Thank you Serena! This was great! I loved Scream Queens. Now I’m going to revisit it.

[@SerenaSkybourne]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@SkeletinaScreama]

I miss this show so much. The comedy was just what I needed!! I honestly thought the horror was good too. Camp can work when done well!

[@swish3432]

You have such good taste

[@SerenaSkybourne]

Thankyou 🥺🥺

[@robbiekoziol3144]

i love this thank you !!!!!!!!!!!1

[@SerenaSkybourne]

My pleasure 😇

[@faithkylie]

I loved this show & I think it's only underrated because people don't realize that it's entirely satirical. The writers purposely made all the characters annoying & insufferable (except for Zayday) to make fun of rich people & other movies. Also I think that Hester was the final killer revealed as a way to make fun of other horror movies for being too obvious.
