A quirky mixture between comedy and horror, “Scream Queens” is definitely one of a kind.
Garnering over 4 million views on opening night, the first season of the show received 7.2/10 stars on IMDB and a 68 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
The show already boasts a Critics Choice Television Award for Most Exciting New Series and a People’s Choice Award for Favorite New TV Comedy, and a nomination for a Golden Globe.
“Scream Queens” is set to return at 8 p.m. on Sept. 20 on FOX.
Season one took place at Kappa Kappa Tau sorority house, associated with the fictional Wallace University, where a serial killer took out each KKT sister one at a time.
At the end of season one, we saw Chanel Oberlin (Emma Roberts), Chanel #3 (Billie Lourd) and Chanel #5 (Abigail Breslin) sentenced to a mental institution after being found guilty for the murders of their sorority sisters.
Life once against seemed normal when we left the remaining KKT members, Zayday (Keke Palmer), Hester (Lea Michelle) and Grace (Skyler Samuels) picking up the pieces of the horrific first year.
Season two is rumored to include a three year time jump from the end of season one.
Instead of Wallace University, the new season will take place in a hospital called the C.U.R.E. Institute where strange medical cases are under observation. The surviving KKT sisters will be working in the hospital where a new set of killings occur.
Jamie Lee Curtis, Emma Roberts, Glen Powell, Keke Palmer and Abigail Breslin will all be reprising their roles for the new season.
Season two will also boast a new list of all-star cast members to add to the returning members of the show.
Taylor Lautner will be joining the cast as a series regular playing Dr. Cassidy Cascade, who suffers from a strange medical condition. He becomes a suspect when a series of tragic incidents takes place at the hospital.
John Stamos will be playing another doctor on the show, Dr. Brock Holt. It is hinted that he has had a full hand transplant.
Kirstie Alley, Colton Hayes and more yet to be announced will also be joining in the “Scream Queens” franchise this season.
The usual Chanel hijinks and lots of humor with just the right amount of horror is what’s in store for this season of “Scream Queens.”
