Inquisitr is the latest source to report on the steady decline in ratings for Scream Queens, which remains in the clear of being axed by FOX. The author of the piece, Nathan Francis, believes the comedic horror show is continually saved each week due to new trends in the television/entertainment business. Network executives are more reluctant to kill off a program if it’s building an audience unaccounted for by traditional ratings. Television shows are also being considered for other options, such as airing solely on OTT services like HULU and Netflix.
In more positive news, Scream Queens is up for a People’s Choice Award for Favorite New TV Comedy. Lea Michelle, Jamie Lee Curtis and Emma Roberts are all up for Favorite Actress in a New TV Series. Elizabeth Banks will host the 42nd awards show on January 6, 2016. I’m curious to see if the outcome of these two awards will have any push or pull on the continuation of the series.
