Sorority life will never be the same after the first season of Scream Queens, a new show on FOX. Instead of worrying about classes, boys, and the esteemed sorority days, these sisters have to worry about keeping their heads; literally.

This moderately gory, suspenseful spoof of both Greek college life and classic horror movies is guaranteed to keep stomachs churning with both anticipation and disgust. Due to the somewhat excessive use of gore and the suspense, the creators of the show succeed in tying the two genres of horror and comedy together.

This show, which airs on Tuesday nights at 9/8pm central time, has an engaging mystery element as the identity of a serial killer dressed in a red devil costume remains a secret, which would appeal to fans of shows such as American Horror Story, especially since the creators of both shows are the same people. This show, however, isn’t for anyone who is sensitive to stereotypes, discrimination, or offensive jokes.

While the goriness of the show may be a little much for some, the show does have a fairly diverse cast compared to other dramas currently on air, but it’s far from making revolutionary progress. Most of the minorities present are typically just used as the brunt of offensive jokes or are victims of discrimination from other characters.

For example, the only African American characters featured so far: Zayday Williams (Keke Palmer) and Denise Hemphill (Nicey Nash), spend approximately one third of their screen time being insulted by the other white characters. Aside from this, Nash’s character as a whole is also based solely upon the incompetent African-American security guard archetype.

However, because even the white characters are based on offensive stereotypes as well, viewers are almost guaranteed to find a favorite character to root for. The comedy aspect simply relies far too much on offending people in a tasteful way.

Despite the ridiculous caricatures with how the show has been progressing so far, there’s a good chance that any character has only a few episodes left before being slaughtered by one of the red devils.

“The creators’ promise to kill off at least one character each episode means “Scream Queens” has a large cast” Mike Hale, writer for the New York Times, wrote in a review of the show. “All those victims plus a sufficient number of suspects — and many of the performers are appealing.”
