MTV teams with super-producers Bob and Harvey Weinstein on a TV series adaptation of the hit horror film franchise. Instigated by a cyberbullying incident that goes viral, a brutal murder in Lakewood stirs memories of a crime spree from the town's past that has haunted some, intrigued others and maybe just spawned a new executioner. At the center of the story is a group of teenagers -- with two old friends struggling to reconnect at its heart -- who, says the network, "become lovers, enemies, suspects, targets and victims of a killer who's out for blood."

You could see Scream's 2016-ready plots as an affront to the legacy of a brilliant, subversive, horror franchise, or a necessary part of a distinctive new saga that delves deeper into its characters' backstories than ever. Go to Full Review Price Peterson Entertainment Weekly 08/29/2017
There was a refreshing dose of confidence present in "I Know What You Did Last Summer" that was largely absent last season. Go to Full Review Holly Hogan Den of Geek 08/23/2019
I admit I've not done a lot of thinking about Scream in its downtime... I was thus pleasantly surprised at the giddiness the first few minutes this premiere gave me and at how happy I was to catch up with these kids. Go to Full Review Amie Cranswick Flickering Myth 08/22/2019
With the same self-awareness and use of social networking, Scream keeps it current, interesting and tongue in cheek. Go to Full Review Paul Dailly TV Fanatic 08/22/2019
4.0/5.0
I Know What You Did Last Summer was a thrilling hour of this MTV horror series. It's evident that the show is going from strength to strength to deliver the shocks for us this time round and we're in for a very interesting summer. Go to Full Review Jack Pooley What Culture 08/22/2019
Season 2 did as any show must to survive: it improved upon what came before and deepened the series' mythology in meaningful ways. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Brenden D @WestWardReviews Dec 26 A Decent Enough Follow-Up To The First Season The Grows In Some Areas While Faltering In Others On The Flip Side, There Isn't As Much Sloppy Writing In Terms Of Logic Lost, Outside Of The Horror Cliches. The Story Feels More Focused Towards A Final Goal, And While It's Nice To Have The Best Character Returning, The Replacements Feel Like Just That, Cheap Replacements. The Final Reveal Is Okay, The Red Heirings Feel A Little Too Obvious, And The Hints Of Where They Were Going Later Left Me Scratching My Head. Some Spicey Scenes I Definitely Enjoyed, Solid Kills & Meta Commentary. But The Halloween Special Left Me Face Palming. While I LOVED Seeing Emma Now Fully BADASS FINAL GIRL BOSS MODE Fighting Back, The Scene Where The Killer Runs Out Only For The Person We've All Been Guessing To Suddenly Return Seconds After Left Me Face Palming. The Special Didn't Feel Necessary. Some Decent Also Questionable Choices Throughout C+ or B- 6.6-7/10 Decent Enough, Minus The Special. Skip That See more Andrei D Sep 2 it stretches its ideas too thin and doesn't get the right mix between the core high school dumb stuff and the killer action See more Austyn P @weiredboy Aug 2 I think I don't like this season as much because I got myself spoiled. Also I think the Halloween Special was really boring, like another killer boyfriend? Come on. See more Micah K @Nemesis-X Aug 1 Even better than the first season! Plenty of surprises around every corner, and a job well done by the cast. It is just unfortunate that the show ends on a cliffhanger. See more THE NASHVILLE I @Nshvlleindie Jun 25 S2 couldn't recapture the plot and entertainment of S1. The show tried to make some needed additions, but those additions never had chemistry or any believability. Things were just a little too forced together...downplayed at times, stitched up at others, without a good sense of cohesion. See more Brad G 10/27/2024 Pretty fun watch the first two seasons were fun a little too teeny but still fun, third season was soo bad not sure who they made that for yikes 😬 See more Read all reviews
