Fox renews Scream Queens




After months of whether or not it will get cancelled, it's official that Scream Queens will be back for a second season.

The network on Friday announced that the Ryan Murphy's slasher comedy was renewed for a second season, ending the speculations of it's future due to it's rating challenge.

"It's going to take place in a hospital and explore some of the most interesting medical fascinomas," says Fox boss Gary Hewman. "This is something Ryan Murphy loves and had a lot of fun with on "Nip/Tuck, and he, Brad (Falchuk) and Ian (Brennan) are going to infuse that sensibility on Scream Queens."

"Ryan definitely intends to bring some of the actors from the fist installment back," adds Fox's Dana Walden. "I believe they will be the same characters."

Scream Queens ended it's first season in December with the long-awaited reveal of Lea Michele's Hester as the dreaded Red Devil, who was terrorizing Wallace University.

Though the series average just 2.8 million viewers weekly and a 1.1 demo rating. But Fox notes that only 30 percent of its audience watched live, with 26 percent caught up on DVR and 44 percent viewed the show via VOD and Hulu.

Dreaming Accuse: Scream Queens "Beware of Young Girls"



Chanel #2 gets a funeral, the Dean gets accused of being a murder and Chanel knows who could two devil killers.

Finally after I would think seven episode in that these characters held a funeral for one of their dead friends. Chanel #2 gets a eulogy from Chanel unlike any other and tells her to riot in hell. The group later decide to play the Ouija broad to contact the spirits, they did and it freaked out about it.

Chanel freaks out that Chanel #2 tells that Chad has been cheating. She goes to Chad and interrupts his play date with his goat as he's trying to get the goats milk because he's lactose and tolerant. But the two make up as always.

The rest of the Chanel's think that Chanel could be the killer and devise a plan to killer. That plan was ruin by Chanel #2 as she told Chanel about it in a laxative dream. And as Chanel stops them by accusing them, she tells them that she knows who the killer is.

Meanwhile the dean gets arrested as Grace and Pete do their own investigation on the killing. They interview Feather McCarthy an tells them a story of how she and Dean Munsch's husband fell in love. So after, she gets home and finds a pool or blood with an arrow, follows with body parts telling her to go this way and finds her boyfriend's head in a fish tank.

Dean is arrested but gets out and gets Feather arrested and put into a glass prison just like the one from Hannibal's Silence of the Lambs. There were a few references from the film. And we do find out that the Dean actually did kill her ex-husband to get rid of Feather.

This episode was pretty good. I was amazed of Robert's performance and also Curtis too. There were Hannibal Lecter's reference that I enjoyed so much. And I'm glad to see Ariana Grande back on the show, and I thought she would be like Nick Jonas, who isn't dead. And the question still leads on who the killer is, is it Munsch? Gigi? Chanel? Grace and Zayday? I can't put one finger on it without changing it after each episode, Ryan Murphy and Co. have made this series a great mystery series.

Overall, I give this episode a 8.5/10.

You can catch Scream Queens Tuesday nights at 9/8c on FOX.

Darkness of the Light Reunites Weekend Catch Up pt 12



Scream Queens " Seven Minutes in Hell"

As the voting for new Kapa President, Chanel and Zayday are voted as President. Chanel pretends to hate the idea but she really likes it and was trying to make her President.

Anyway, in order to stop the Red Devil, Zayday plans a slumber party where they can play spin the bottle, truth or dare and seven minutes in heaven. Believe me the funniest scene came from Roberts' Chanel asking how they are going to play these games without any dickies.

Of course, the girls are trapped in the house due to an emergency system so Chanel calls Chad to come and rescue them. He did but all he did was bring guys because they were going to their party anyway.

Soon the killings starts and after this episode three people would be killed. And the accusing began. As morning came, the police seems not want to do anything anyway so there was only one thing to do. Party like it was the 90's!!!

This episode was really good. I'm more impress with Emma Roberts performance in this episode along with Lea Michele who plays one hell of an annoying character. Almost like her Glee character.

Overall, I give this episode a 7/10.

You can catch Scream Queens Tuesday nights at 9/8c (it will be back after baseball) on FOX.


Stitchers "When Darkness Falls"

In this Halloween special, when a girl is missing and the killer's body is found, Kristin and the team are on the case to find where she is being held at and if she's still alive.

When Kristin stitches into the murderer, there was something different that she hasn't encountered before, somehow the mind is talking back at her. Cameron and the rest thought it as just it a mind of a phenomenon. But Kristin wasn't buying it.

She was spooked to death thinking that she was seeing things. Turns out that she was so scared that she spent the night at Cameron's house and the two slept together, but I'm sure it was nothing.

When Fisher located the place that Kristin saw with a dead body, they checked it out and turns out to be a dead body without any organs. But Kristin finds the missing girl's cell phone with a photo of her and the killer.

Without any new clues, Kristin when back to stitching the body again and had found where the girl was being kept. But the killer was still talking to her but they found the girl where she was in the basement.

You would think that it would be over, no there was a twist to give it that Halloween taste. As Kristin and the gang have a party at the empty house of the killer's. Kristin goes up stairs to check on something and finds that the killer but it was the one's evil brother. Weird!!

Soon Kristin and the evil brother had a nice chat as she tells him that they're alike until she pulls a trick and drops the dumbwaiters on him.

This episode was really good. There was some good humor and very good story that shows that Kristin can show fear even if she says that she doesn't get scared. I would have never had guess that the brother was the one. It didn't come to my mind.

Overall, I give this episode a 7.5/10.

You can catch Stitchers new season sometime next year on the new Freeform Network (Former ABC Family).  


Arrow "Restoration"  

The title of this week's episode is actually what it means for our characters.

Oliver and Diggle come to terms and have to take things into their own hands. Oliver takes on Double Down and Diggle takes on the one good lead that he's been looking for, both of which couldn't go it alone. Which makes Felicity the mom between them and make them talk alone.

Apparently that worked and they come to terms.

Double Down the card throwing criminal, tracks down one of his cards and found it at Palmer's faculty where Felicity and Curtis  were talking about the card. Felicity takes on Down and gets Curtis to the Arrow's secret layer. It was kind of cool to see Felicity shoot a gun like she was scar-face.

Thea and Laurel meet with with Malcolm and hoping to provide answers. I can't stand Malcolm for what he does to Thea, putting her through this crap. And for Laurel, she wants to bring back Sara from the dead. Of course, Malcolm couldn't do it because when she comes back it wound't be the same Sara but a totally different person. I'm thinking try Thea 10 times different with the power and anger that she's shows.

I understand where Laurel is coming from but this is a bad idea to bring her sister back to live like this. Something worst is going to happen. But I'm happy to as Felicity says it "have the gang back together. "

I've enjoyed this episode. I'm really enjoying Neal McDonough's performance as Damien Dahrk. So evil and so much a rules in order type of guy. I can't wait to see what he does each week to get his plans into action.

Overall, I give this episode a 8.5/10.

You can catch Arrow Wednesday nights at 8/7c on The CW.



Heroes Reborn "Game Over" 

Noah and Quentin tries to get answers off from Harris. Harris doesn't seem want to give any information but takes them to the secret place where they seem to keep Noah's old friend Hiro.

As Harris takes Noah to the place, they meet Miko, who is also searching for Hiro as well. The two works together but trouble comes and Quentin's sister comes with four more Harris' and shoots them. Miko tries to battle with herself in the virtual game and soon does but if she frees Hiro she will die.

Hiro saves Noah just in time and Noah asked him for help. Hiro takes Noah back to June 13th.

Meanwhile Tommy is still upset with his mother and goes to Emily to cool off. They soon take off to Paris and tries to get up to the Eiffle Tower, but with the scanners there it didn't work out. Tommy tells Emily that he's has to save the world that it's his destiny.

Emily tells Tommy or shows him a comic book that helps him with his issue and it does. Soon they go back to her place and she helps take the chip out of his wrist. But soon they kiss and I think that they're a couple now, right?

And of course, Luke tries to end his life by buying a boat and sinking himself down the lake but that doesn't come true thanks to one hero, Malina. The bumped to each other at the vending machines and soon they talk and after showing Luke a photo of Tommy they are off to help save the world.

I enjoyed this episode a lot. Mostly because of the return of Hiro. He's literally my favorite hero along with Ellie, who wasn't much of a hero. Good to see old friends back. I'm amazed at what Luke has gone through dealing with his powers and his life basically gone until he meets Malina and all that seems to help him focus.

Overall, I give this episode a 8/10

You can catch Heroes Reborn Thursday nights at 8/7c on NBC.

A Halloween to Scream For: Scream Queens "Haunted House"



In a more twist and turn episode, the ending of this episode raised more questions than anything.

Grace and Pete search for the former sorority, Mandy, who was there when the murder happen. Also got some starling news not only what happen after the murder but something Grace was not prepared for...that she could be that child.

Mandy gave some interesting story of how Dean Munsch was the one who helped get rid of the body and cleaned up the mess. She told the girls that she's their gardening angle. Yeah, an angle that loves to wear black clothing. I'm going back and forth that maybe she's the killer, but she did state her case that how she could do such an act in last week's episode.

Meanwhile, Zayday decides to run for against Chanel Oberlin for President of their sorority. Not a liking the idea, Chanel and her team try to sabotage Zayday's plans by ruining her haunted house. That apparently has dead bodies from the cleaning lady, Sonya/Chnael #2, the security guard and Mandy.

I will say that I did enjoyed this episode more the last week. One awkward but funny scene comes from when Kayday calls 911 and informs about the dead bodies in her haunted house. The cop thinks that there should be dead bodies and thought that this was just a prank call. To me it sounds like something from the film Scream or Scary Movie.

I did enjoy the clips of fans of Chanel on Instagram getting to receive package of Halloween stuff at their doorstep that's known as "Chanel-O-Ween." The chips look so real and probably got real reaction from fans.

As I said there seems to be more questions asked with little answers. The one thing that left the eye brows raising was who's live in that haunted house with all the broken dolls? We get to see a lady in a rocking chair in a black robe like that turned out to be Gigi. Could she be the killer or let alone the mother that was left for dead? Yes, I'm going to go there. It seems that this show can go anywhere at any moment.

Overall, I give this episode an 8/10.

You can catch Scream Queens Tuesday nights at 9/8c on FOX.

Tuesday Night Premiere Comedies & Screaming Drama




Scream Queens:  "Chainsaw"

The search for the killer is on. For Gracie and Pete they might be closer to who it might be. 

This episode had a lot of throwback themes from film and music. One of them that stood out was when Chad and his gang went out on revenge to get the Red Devil killer for killing Boone. The song "Everybody" by Backstreet Boys was playing and it was literally hilarious and ridiculous as they were hitting a fire hydrogen and a red car. 

Now there's two killers out there dress up as Red Devils. So there might be a duo that's doing this. Maybe Chanel #2 and Boone. 

I couldn't get enough air time with Deam Munsch and Gigi as they are in love with Gracie's father, Wes. They had a nice conversation in the tennis court and Munsch decides that they will be staying in the capa house for a week.

In one scene, Munsch was about to go to bed but turns on the white noise machine and made Gigi sleep down stairs. Well, as she sleeps, the Red Devil appears with a chainsaw and tries attacking Gigi until Wes comes in and tries stopping it. But it was Gigi that kick the Devil over the couch. But it disappeared before anyone could stop it. 

Billie Lord as Chanel #3 is pretty good on this show. Her character spells a secret that her real dad is Charlie Manson. Also this could be Lea Michele best work as Hester. Hester might be dumb and obsess but she might be smart enough to cause trouble between Chanel and Chanel #5. 

This episode had a lot more humor than drama. There was a lot of good character development and performances from this cast was really good. 

Overall, I give this episode a 8/10.

Grandfathered & The Grinder "Pilot"

Two legendary actors come back to television in one of their best work since well the last best thing that they've done.

Let's start with Grandfathered, about a womanizer man who tries to win everyone's charm with his top fancy restaurant. Until he gets awake up call from his 25 year old son along with another surprise...a granddaughter. 

John Stamos is amazing in this role. He's best since Full House as a comedy but I can't forget that he was also great in ER as well. There are some similarities between his character and Uncle Jessie when you see the montage of him spending time with his granddaughter. 

Overall I enjoyed and it might be one of the best new shows of the fall. 

The other comedy is The Grinder and it stars Rob Lowe. 

It about how a television star that just ended a hit show about being a lawyer, comes back to visit with his family. His little brother, played by Fred Savage, is a lawyer is not a very good one at first. He literally has to read cards when presenting. It's so awkward and hilarious. But when Lowe's character helps his brother with a case, something that he has no knowledge about, it becomes a helpful and great media coverage. 

In the end, the two will join forces and work together to fight for justice. 

I very much enjoyed this show. There were so many great moments from Lowe's character acting like his character on television, Savage being the dorky brother lashes out his feelings in writing them down in cards. 

This is Lowe's best work since Parks and Recreation. But nothing should very top that show so I would just say that it's a second best thing Lowe has done since Parks. 

Overall I give Grandfathered a 9/10 and The Grinder a 9.5/10.

You can catch Grandfathered and The Grinder Tuesday nights at 8/7c on FOX.

Scream Queens "Pilot" & "Hell Week"




It's funny and scary but did I mention funny? Scream Queens the latest new series from the creator of Glee and American Horror Story series hits with such a story that it feels like it's mashed up of AHS, Mean Girls and Scream.

When a sorority party goes wrong as a student was killed, twenty years later revenge comes a calling to the campus, but who is the red devil murderer? This series had me hook not from the first scene of the episode but when Emma Roberts was introduce. Playing this mean girl sorority queen that doesn't seem to have an emotion expect fear when the killer comes around.

In the second episode, we get to watch the girls who are trying to get into the sorority, having to go through some tough challenges known as hell week. And along with that they are also trying to keep each other alive.

There's plenty of murders in the first two episodes. But after watching the last scene of the second episode, are some of these students really dead?

Jamie Lee Curtis is amazing in this series as Dean Cathy Munsch. She doesn't like the sorority that Robert's character the president. Curtis is funny and gives some hints that maybe she could be the murderer. I couldn't get enough of watch Curtis hitting on Gracie's father.

There are a few cinematic camera work that gives this series a bit of a feel of AHS. There's so much comedy in this dramatic series that I can't figure that if it's funny or not and some of the jokes did kind of went through my head anyway.

But I can not lie that I did enjoy the series. The mystery has me so interested in who the killer is and who will die.

Overall, I give the "Pilot" a 7.5/10 and "Hell Week" a 8/10.

You can catch "Scream Queens" Tuesday nights at 9/8c on FOX.

It's one of this Fall's buzzed about new show. From the minds the created "American Horror Story" and "Glee" comes a new series that puts comedy in horror. "Scream Queens" is the new series coming to FOX when a string of murders occurs on a college campus, there may have some connection to an incident that happen 20 years ago.

The series stars Emma Roberts (We're The Millers and American Horror Story: Freak Show), Jamie Lee Curtis (Halloween), Lea Michelle (Glee), Abigail Breslin (Little Miss Sunshine), Oliver Hudson (Nashville), Nick Jonas (The Jonas Brothers) and Ariana Grande (Victorious).

From what the trailer showed, it look like taking the elements of Halloween and Scream and putting it together as a comedy. The show looks interesting enough to tune in this fall or set the DVR to it.
