Despite some disappointing ratings, FOX decided to stick with Scream Queens and give it a second season. Will the numbers improve this time around? Will it be cancelled or renewed for a third season? Stay tuned.
This season of Scream Queens graduates from the college campus and moves into a hospital with a haunted past. The building’s sordid history as the springboard for the series’ overarching mystery. The cast 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. Guest stars this season include Jerry O’Connell, Laura Bell Bundy, Colton Haynes, Cecily Strong, and Cheri Oteri.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.

For comparisons: The first season of Scream Queens averaged a 1.09 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.79 million total viewers (live + same day ratings).
Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.

I’m Highly Upset & Frustrated! Like How Can Fox Do This. I Freaking Loveeee Scream Queens & I Am So Heart Broken To Know They Will Not Have A Season 3 Just Like MTV Series Scream Once Again This Is Why I Choose Not To Watch TV! Smh No More Channels? Day day , Denise !!!! Oh God I Hope Fox Rethink It They Caused Damage To My Poor Heart Lol
I know the ratings were low but I really hope it gets renewed. It’s one of my favorites!
I really love Scream Queens it’s got funny scenes and it’s enjoyable to watch, it’s a fresh new horror comedy TV show you’ve never seen before once the episode ends you can’t wait to see the next episode and find out what happens it really gets you excited and it makes your day better I hope their will be a season 3 of Scream Queens
I think the show is also amazing. It lets you sitting on the edge of your seat trying to figure out who the killer is!! They should bring back another season!! Bring it back!!!!!!!
The series definitely deserves another season
This show, I HAVE to say, is AMAZING. I don’t know how far I would get in my life with at LEAST 4 seasons of scream queens. The story cannot end with Chanel JUST having a TV show. You know Feather, she can be a killer, or Grace but that is too obvious! Hester can also get bored on Blood Island and Come back, forcing Brock. Brock and Hester are found. Hester is put in an mental institution, and Brock repeatedly “tries” to get her out, but he always “fails” b/c he wants to kill Cathy and Chanel without without… Read more »

PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL THIS SHOW!!! I am so hooked on it. By the second episode of the first season I was hooked. It’s hilarious and the stories are interesting. The actors are amazing as well! Im a big fan of American horror story also. There is just something about this show though that I can’t get enough of. I love comedy and horror and this show has both all in one! At least give it one more season. I know it will just get better and better. Please don’t cancel it! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! Oh and bring Chad back!… Read more »

I love scream queens I live for this show not literally but I LOVE IT SO MUCH
I love this show. I thought season one was great. Season two did quite a few things wrong which makes me sad, but I think the show can easily be redeemed with a third season. ***SPOILER ALERT*** Killing Chad Radwell was a huge mistake. He really brought most of the comedy to the show. Toning down Chanel’s political incorrectness from season one was also a huge mistake. They also toned down Dean Munsch, which I didn’t like. Other than that, the show was doing just fine in my opinion. ***END SPOILER ALERT*** Please do a third season. This show has… Read more »
