MTV’s "Scream" TV series official thread

[re'up]

I don't know about Power Rangers, but it's, new house or childhood home, in old hometown, childhood tragedy, a lot of genre cliches.

I agree....I think it could be done, just needs more crafting and subtlety, rather then the 'kill of the week', I saw with 'Scream', and 'Slasher'. Plus, as I was referencing in the other post, the aftermath of savage killings upon your closest friends and family, and these people are still going about their days...Also, the convoluted, absurdly complex methods of killing and torture, which further strain much believability. It doesn't have to represent reality, but since it would be incredibly difficult to kill your classmates and friends, routinely, stalking and hunting them down, without being caught, wouldn't that just as interesting and compelling tv? Did you see 'Slasher'? Very similar to 'Scream', I stopped watching after I mistakenly read who the killer was...which was about as cliched and tired as you can get.

Slasher was good for the first 5-10 minutes where it showed what happened to the lead character's parents on Halloween 30 years ago but everything after that ended up being insulting to the intelligence of even the dumbest viewer.
It made MTV's Scream look like The Wire by comparison.

peeped the halloween ep...works as a self contained story...kinda on how they'll extend it to S3 without making it too much more convoluted or copping out with some bullshyt.
