Is Scream Queens returning for a third season? Deadline reports star Lea Michele has been released from her contract with the FOX TV series.
Michele plays Hester on the horror dramedy from Ryan Murphy. The cast also includes Emma Roberts, Jamie Lee Curtis, Lea Michele, Abigail Breslin, Keke Palmer, Billie Lourd, Glen Powell, Niecy Nash, John Stamos, Taylor Lautner, and James Earl. Season two of the series ended this past December.
Michele was released from her contract with Scream Queens so she could star in a new comedy pilot for ABC. Though FOX has not yet announced whether Scream Queens will be renewed or not, the ensemble show could continue without Michele.
Though, a season three renewal seems unlikely. Season two of the show received poor ratings. It earned an average rating of .61 in the 18-49 demo and a total of only 1.445 million viewers, which is pretty low for a broadcast network like FOX.
What do you think? Are you a fan of Scream Queens? Do you think FOX should renew the series?

I’m 52, and my 19-year-old daughter and I love to watch this show together. We would love to see it renewed. Maybe FOX didn’t adequately advertise or market the show. Have the stars make guest appearances on other TV shows. I feel like the performances are really great. We’ll miss this show if it is cancelled. It would be easier to give this show a boost than it would be to finance a completely new show.
The show is crap! Cancel it.
I absolutely love ❤️ the DJ Twins. I hope in Season 3 they will be in more episodes. There great!!
Keep Scream Queens, it’s a funny “horror ” show that gives you a good laugh while letting Horror buffs pick apart all the horror movie clesha’s.
Don’t cancel Scream Queens!! Fix it!! Advertise more. Show guest stars. How about same cast as different characters.
