Honestly, the actress isn’t great at playing “nice girls” but then again who is those types of roles are 😴 especially in campy shows like this. She’s great in the gifted tho.
It's absolutely amazing to me that they created a character that is racist, homophobic, ableist, bigot, fatphobic, a murderer and somehow made us love her
Because most of the other characters were unbearable in some ways. Grace had this main character complex; Zayday was nice but boring to watch; Chanel #5 was an annoying whiny brat, etc.
That is what i thought too! I was like damn isn’t Chanel No. 5 the most iconic perfume. 😂 would be interested if that goes anywhere/her character becomes more special
Fun Fact: Ariana dying first in Scream Queens being a homage to Drew dying in Scream is also a homage to Janet Leigh dying first in Psycho aka the bath tube scene, one of the most notable scenes in film history, and Mrs. Janet Leigh was in fact Jamie Lee Curtis’ Mother. And Jamie actually paid homage as well, outsmarting the killer in her bathroom in a later episode of Scream Queens season 1. Fully circle ⭕️ !
9:30 I feel like the Chanel's are way more reminiscent of the Heather’s than the Plastics tbh since they’re more directly mean, aggressive and intimidating and all the girls share the same name while the Plastics were kinda fake nice to people and just normal girls, and the Heather's and Chanel’s are also obviously surrounded by murder. Even the dynamics and personalities of the characters are very similar to the heathers like Heather Duke and Chanel #5 being the jealous punching bags of the group's while Chanel #3 and Heather McNamera are kinda distant from the group compared to the others but they seem to be on the good side of the leader. And Grace really reminds me of Veronica especially when her boyfriend admitted to being the killer it really reminded me of when JD tried to justify murdering all the people to get payback on the popular students. There’s also so much Heathers references in the show and I feel like people don’t really talk about it like playing croquette and Chanel #2's funeral scene was a clear reference to Heather Chandler's funeral where we hear all the characters internal dialogues.
I agree! I'm always so annoyed when people talk about mean girls when the reference is more Heathers or they forget that mean girls is also based on Heathers
Unfortunately, I think a lot of people are just unaware of Heathers! I had never even heard of it until I saw it in 2012, and I didn’t really appreciate it until 2017. But yeah, the only thing Mean Girls and Scream Queens have in common are the cruel, vapid cliques, but Heathers is EVERYWHERE in the series.
Scream queens really is a "if you get it you get it, if you don't you don't" show. I was OBSESSED and everyone I knew just thought it was fine. Like at best, they thought it was good but too flawed to be amazing. They don't Get! It! Bye gonna go watch season 1 again
This show gets funnier every time I watch it. It truly was ahead of its time. We’d love a whole series on scream queens, but also perfect pilots is an amazing idea.
@AIOUCH01 bodies bodies bodies exist so I don't think that's true. It's just all about execution babes, I mean as we all know scream queens s2 isn't as strong as s1 anyways so the time periodt doesn't really matter
I feel like both doing the rest of Scream Queens and also continuing this series is a good move. Like we maybe don't need all the rest of Scream Queens right away but eventually it would be fun. But this premise is a great idea for a series so definitely keep covering pilots
Im glad the señorita awesome bit is being given the treatment it deserves like..... I took such severe psychic damage each time someone said those words my god.
You should definitely finish your current recap series while putting out more Perfect Pilot episodes. Then maybe do a community vote to see which series featured on perfect pilots is worthy of a full recap series.
I tried to go to as scream Queens for Halloween last year, but everyone said they didn’t know what it was and I find that really frustrating. Thank you for your service Mics Mike.
I remember being so excited to watch them each week jammed into my college dorm. I loved it then, but now that I'm very much queer and even more of a horror fan it's actually iconic
I am on my hands and knees for more screen queens. I remember waiting every week to watch the show till it got too crazy and I never knew what happened.
doing the pilots series sounds like it might be easier on you in the long run; having your long series spanning entire shows and your short series jumping between shows seems like a healthy balance
I watched the show when it came out. My teenage self was obsessed. I’ve rewatched this video like 4 times and it just gets better each time. I need Mike to do recaps of all my tv show obsessions from my teens. Nine Lives of Chloe King? Vampire Diaries? The Lying Game? The Carrie Diaries? Yes, please!
It’s honestly Murphys magnum opus in my opinion. My favorite running gag of the show is that with Grace and Pete is that they are literally in a different show than everyone else, and the show comments on that all the time. And how anytime grace is on screen the vibe of the show instantly changes.
I'd love to see some more perfect pilots because there's so many shows I haven't seen and I think you'd do a great job of convincing me to finally start
@@ley5532 right like did i really care if she was a bad person? no because she was rich, pretty, and had majority of the witty lines. in conclusion, she mothered before the word even existed.
You have to do the rest of the series!! It’s short but SO GOOD. Campy, a lil cringe, but has so many wild plot lines and call backs to traditional/classic horror movie lore.
Scream Queens season one is permanently burned in my brain. The promo was TRULY overwhelming even for someone who was unbelievably excited for it premiere I remember being so ready for it to come out mostly so I could stop seeing the ads. I swear the little 10 second promo was in ever ad break. I would for you to continue a season one recap and then keep Perfect Pilots!
PLEASE yes more pilot episodes. Cover the cringe of Friends, the drama of Dexter or Grey’s Anatomy, or literally whatever I will watch it again with you lol
Continuity errors are always funny in Ryan Murphy's productions because honestly, the shows are not complicated and there isn't much to keep track of. He just doesn't try lol he thinks he doesn't need to because it's just that good.
Can we have both? Like Perfect Pilots is a great concept/series to do in between longer videos that require more research but this show just feels so “Mike’s Mic” that it would be a crime not to cover more episodes. Love your videos and thank you for being endlessly entertaining ❤
i think it would be cool to have a 2-hour or 3-hour video about the series far in the future, maybe you could use a Perfect Pilots series to just test the waters for things you aren't sure you would generate enough interest for a higher-effort multiple hour video?
I forgot how ridiculous this show was and Mike, you covering it is so brilliant. Love this new Perfect Pilots idea, yes to Sex and the City. Also lol at Diego Boneta being in both this and Pretty Little Liars 😅
Please cover the rest of the season!!!! Please please please! I haven’t watched the 2nd season (more because horror freaks me out easily) & I’d love you to do that one too (as I dunno if I’d really watch it, or maybe it’d get me to). Also, you’re a comedy Queen as always & truly made me cackle on a meh day. 💜 Your views on Fraternities made me weirdly & completely randomly wonder if you’ve seen Veronica Mars, which I feel like is very Mike style TV & humor.
If it’s possible, I think you should do both options! You could 100% do the Perfect Pilots series! It’s a wonderful idea! And if people want to know more about the show covered in a specific episode, you could go through the first season a few episodes at a time and see if people want more from there
I recently discovered your channel and I am so enchanted. You are a hilariously good time and a fun prescience on camera. I love your content but it’s really your personality that shines and brings it all together.
Honestly i love the concept of this perfect pilots videos but it kinda sucks knowing i losted an opportunity for a deepdive with mike's mic on scream queens ToT the 2 to 3 episodes per video sounds like a good in between!
The first season is easily one of the best to ever grace television screens, so many iconic lines and performances and costumes. This video reminded me to do my annual rewatch so thank you for your service 🫡
Scream Queens is one of the funniest shows out there. It’s so camp and it pulled all the celebrity girlies back to their TV roots Jonas, Ariana, kiki and Jamie Lee Curtis ( not a tv roots girlie but still THE QUEEN)
As per usual, Mike is killing it this entire video. Fit, vibes, merch, announcements, references: all on point. Just because we expected it, doesn’t mean we can’t post in appreciation and wonder ❤
the memories of 14 year old me sitting down every Wednesday night, in the dark of her family home's study room, to watch a new episode of brooklyn nine-nine and then immediately following it with a new episode of scream queens. truly a time that impacted me forever.
it got touched on briefly but its so camp that emma roberts wanting to be a news anchor on scream queens when she was in a movie trying to climb her way to the news anchor top in another movie in the same era jdfsnjksdf
I'm SO excited for more Lost deep dives. My mom and I love Lost and we watched your first video on it during summer and absolutely adored it!!! She also liked the Ocean's 8 video and likes to reference Ocean's 8 a lot now
Would love to see more of this series!! It’s so hard to find online, but the blueprint of Murphy projects is “Popular” and it’s absolutely Unhinged! Love your work 😊
Why not do more Scream Queens and more pilots? Loved how insanely messy this show gets and season 2, while not great, was insanely batshit crazy too. Also, my fav character isn't even in the pilot of this series and I really need to see you talk about Miss Denise Hemphill.
So I'm binging old videos (as one does) but the fact that XG's GRL GVNG is the intro snippet music is too perfect for words and also impeccable taste Mr. Microphone
i forget that literally all of this happens in the pilot!!! chanel’s trenta no foam five shot half caf no foam pumpkin spice latte with no foam at 210° is honestly one of my favourite moments in the whole series
honestly when you started your breakdown series i was praying for you to do scream queens! the acting, the lines, the OUTFITS, are all amazing and so mike's mic energy. so i would personally love if you did just s1 of scream queens, and then explain why it flopped in s2.
i love the idea of perfect pilots as a series! i feel like not every tv show really needs a whole recap series, so just hearing you talk about the pilots would be cool, plus you could always go back to them later if people are really demanding it lol anyway, slayed as always king ✨
God I want BOTH I would love to see more pilot reviews, but I adore Scream Queens and your style of reviews would be perfect for it! I'll be happy no matter what I suppose!!!
GOD i loved scream queens when it was airing. the first season was me & my mom's guilty pleasure comfort show and i can quote chanel's opening monologue from memory. also, i was secretly hoping that Chanel Number 4 wasn't actually dead and that she was the red devil and i'm still annoyed that she wasn't lmao (ALSO ALSO, FUN FACT! jamie lee curtis' mother was janet leigh, the actress who played the lady who got killed in the shower scene in psycho. which they recreate with jamie in scream queens. that's why she says she's seen psycho fifty times ^_^)
