According to ScreenRant, Scream Queens has been canceled after two seasons. The show first premiered in 2015. A mix of campy horror, comedy, and gore, it was similar to American Horror Story but with a younger-skewing audience, following its characters as they?re terrorized by different serial killers. Its slight continuity departed from AHS? true anthology format, picking up with the characters that had survived rather than rebooting each season.
Its first outing centered around a college campus plagued by an enigmatic killer dubbed the Red Devil, while season 2 swapped sorority sisters for a hospital ward, where the ?Green Meanie? was murdering innocent patients at the C.U.R.E. institute. Among the revolving door of cast members were Emma Roberts, Jamie Lee Curtis, Lea Michele, and Billie Lourd.
Now, THR reports that during a conference call with reporters on Monday to discuss the network?s fall schedule, FOX co-chairman and CEO Gary Newman confirmed that the series would not be moving forward. ?Scream Queens was an anthological series,? he said. ?It feels as if it was a compete story. We have no plans at this point to go back there and tell more stories.?
