Pânico: A Série de TV

I am so surprised by the quality of this series, I'd intentionally avoided it believing there wouldn't be enough mileage in it, but I'm always glad to be proven wrong, the writing is so good, that yes there is enough mileage in it to keep you gripped and maintain your attention. Initially the crimes seem to come at the expense of characters that you care nothing about, people seem to be introduced just to be bumped off, but as it develops that changes. I understand they couldn't use the original scream mask, but this one looks good enough, works just as well.

If I had one criticism 'why does everyone have to be so attractive?' it removes the reality, the students, the teachers, the parents etc, come on give us a break. That minor criticism the series is worth checking.

Series one and two are both great, the least said about the third, the better.

It proves that the slasher brand works across a series as well as a film, 8/10.

I'll admit, I was skeptical. I looked at it for a week and a half before watching it. And when I did watch it I was struggling with how you make a slasher flick into a show. But then, my boy Noah (the best character in the entire series) decided to break the fourth wall in the first episode, and explain exactly what was going to happen and how it would work.

As he so elegantly put when asked "whodunnit", "it's not about who the killer is, it's about getting to know the characters, and really feeling for them when they die". After he said that, and perfectly outlined the plot, I gave it a chance. And then promptly lost an entire night of sleep watching the first season.

This show is everything that made the old scream movies great, and then some. From the heart wrenching kills to the "big reveal", it will keep you enticed and enthralled. The show leads you to believe it's one character, before throwing evidence at other, and following it up with then clearing the latter. It got so good that I could tell who was the killer. I had probably 7 theories over the course of the first season, and 5 of them were proven wrong. The plot twists and sudden, and the kills are gruesome. Truly a classic slasher show.

On the other hand, the sequel. Season 3 was a surprise to me, who never reads descriptions of an episode before watching. And at first I was extremely skeptical. Sequels can often ruin a perfectly good movie. I felt like the token characters were shoehorned in with little regard for whether or not they would fit. But eventually they all settled into their right spots, and really brought out the story's themes of racism and secrecy. As soon as best girl Beth pointed out it was a sequel I changed my expectations from reboot, to sequel and everything fit better. Every character made more sense. And I must admit, I did not guess the killer correctly. But also I feel something more could've been brought into the show. More about the characters. I didn't feel for the characters in season 3 in the same way I felt for the first two seasons. And having grown up in the slums myself I should be able to relate to these public school breakfast club types. But I really think that was a lack of development on the side characters. Deion gets a lot of development, but the others kind of fall to the wayside. Very little is actually revealed about them and for the most part I suspected everyone to be the killer due to lack of proof otherwise.

Still, a fantastic show I highly highly recommend watching! Including season 3, it's still amazing.

This is if not the most underrated show of all time. I love it. The first two seasons are amazing. I haven't seen season 3 and never will. But damn those first two seasons are some of my favs. I love the characters. I love the vibes. I thought the story was great. And the kills are cool. It's cheesy but in the best way possible. Hopefully the rumors are true and there will be a season 4 with the cast from seasons 1 and 2.

I've watched season 1&2 and I can say that there's great quality on the series, mostly concentrated on season 2 by far superior to season 1. If you love scream movies the series is great for you. It has it's flaws and plot holes but the acting and twists are pretty good. So, overall great two seasons. Season 3 reboot is pretty bad. Most of new casting is amateurish Afro-Americans. A lot of racial debate on the script, why? Sorry, not for me.

I was surprised by how much I actually enjoyed the series Scream. This is mainly because it is one of the only shows that has aired on MTV that was not terrible. While this show could easily be considered more thriller than horror, it certainly has some of the horror aspects of the original Scream film.

Going into this series, I expected very little beyond a similar story line to the original Scream films. In many ways this series is just like the films - the high school setting, the killer's cat and mouse game with their teenage victims, teenagers constantly trying to get laid despite the fact that half of them are already dead.

But, there are also several large differences from the original story. The series Scream in a modern story and is therefore filled with modern technology that plays a large role in the actions of the characters. I also found it to be a bit less gory than the original/
