This show is not for adults.

I'm 29 years old and I could tell within the first 25 minutes that this was not made for my age group. I was excited to watch Scream Queens because I'm a huge horror fan. And with Supernatural getting old, The Walking Dead not being my cup of tea, and my lack of love for American Horror Story I figured I might have finally found a horror series I can cling to. WRONG!

This series is about b**tches being b**tches towards helpless nerds. We've seen this so many times before. It's played out. It's not funny. It's boring. And it makes the show appear down right juvenile. I understand what they're trying to do. They're trying to be Clueless meets Scream, meets Mean Girls, meets Scary Movie but it ain't working. It comes across as try hard and obnoxious. I think I laughed twice out of the entire 2 hour special although they attempted to be funny numerous times and failed.

If I were a 15 year old girl then I think I "might" would be able to appreciate this. But I'm not. I'm a grown woman who has real life problems and I can't view this unrealistic world or these annoying characters as entertaining. I only gave it two stars because the lawnmower scene was funny.

score 6/10
