Scream: The TV Series

I loved the movies but the show is lacking something. I really didn't care for the actors except Bex Taylor-Klaus(Sin from Arrow) it was nice seeing her. I liked Bella Thorne too but... 
I will keep watching. I thought they weren't going to use a mask? Or was it just the iconic Scream mask? The one on the show is okay but there is something I don't like about the mouth of the mask. Oh well.

Not enough wood for the fire.
First I heard of this. Is this a killer of the week or same one with one or two murders per episode but ongoing mystery who the killer is?
16 year old It-Girl is murdered in the first ten minutes, Laura Palmer like universal tears from the high school next Monday morning. A connection is nuzzled out from a string of murders made 20 years earlier, and there's a nerd talking about how life is like the rules from a horror movie, without blatantly saying "the rules" like they did in the original Scream movie.
Someone new is probably going to die each week.
We don't know who the murderer is, and if we think we do, the writers are just ####ing with us, because there seemed to be a massive hint at the end of the first episode, which is either misdirection, or this this is not a whodunnit.

I watched and definitely liked it! I never saw Scream 4, but I liked the first three movies a lot, so I'm excited that this is a show. I don't remember the backstory they mentioned from the movies, though… is that something the show made up or was Brandon (I think that was his name) Ghostface from the movies (or the first one)?
"Call 911!"
"Calling Pottery Barn."
I enjoyed it.
After a brief mention in the pilot, I hope they delve more deeply into the "rules" of a horror TV show. Part of the fun of the Scream franchise is the meta-commentary on the genre and medium that they exist in, so this seems like a given. Especially with the large number of horror television series that are currently on the air -- the field is fertile for "in-show" discussion.

If you liked the original three, you should definitely check out 4. I thought it was a great installment to the series.
I definitely want to check it out! I heard good things about it. These days I just so often opt for TV over movies that I end up seeing vert few of the latter. I should hunt down Scream 4 though.
I'm a fan of the first 3, the fourth not so much.
This does sound interesting and promising to do fresh things.

The second episode wasn't as successful as the first, but it wasn't terrible.
I liked that the teacher called his know-it-all student "Will Graham." That's the second Hannibal reference in as many episodes.

But Hannibal is a TV show that proves how modern Scream is, which is how the cool teacher is trying to relate to his 15 going on 16 year old students, on their level, not that any of them probably still watch Network TV, even if Hannibal wasn't outside their parental guidance levels if they had stern parents who monitor these things.
Of course maybe they wouldn't be referencing Hannibal, if they were aware of the cancellation, when the first episodes of Scream were filmed.

^^Scream 4 (and 2) has a couple air-times on MTV this week.
Episode two was a bit of a snoozer at the midway, but I guess it couldn't stay in top gear forever. Good ending, though.

Not too bad for a second EP. I was hoping Piper would have been more like Gale from the movies. She wasn't ruthless enough. 
So, was that a comic book store or that kid's bedroom? He said something about working there but it looked more like some spoiled kid's family room.
This sounds quite fun, I really enjoyed the films. I wonder when we'll get it here in the UK.
