Murder! Monsters! Ghosts! Ghouls! 👻 A spooky horror anthology podcast 💀 Not safe for bedtime 🎃 | Written by @brttbrntt | Part of the @daffadillies network.
I really think this is the best thing I've ever made, and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed in how poorly it's doing number-wise. I don't know why the algorithm doesn't seem to be showing this to anyone, so if you haven't seen it on YouTube, here's your Twitter poke.
The fact that we’re not getting TV versions of Tales From The Crypt, The Haunt of Fear, and The Vault of Horror, each releasing a 10-episode season a year, with a Weird Science/Fantasy spin-off pencilled in is a crime against humanity we must alert The Hague
@PorgNoises@ScreamWithRCS Yeah they should be leaving more survivors to keep sequel opportunities open. I’ll never understand the choice to kill Dewey and Judy. A cop is always useful—one of them should have lived.
@ScreamWithRCS@_ZackLarsen Even if there is a problem… She’s a huge star right now, not to mention immensely talented. You reduce her role and schedule around her a la Neve in Scream 3. You don’t just give up and lose one of your best assets.
The only character they have who doesn’t feel finished is Kirby and I don’t think that’s enough. A TV series following Kirby solving crimes, yes. But as the sole legacy in Scream VII? Nah.
They’ve written themselves into a major corner. The Core Four was established so strongly it’s near impossible to lose one or two. They all have to go. They killed Dewey and Judy. Maybe burned bridges with Neve. Zero effort on giving Gale any new story to work with.
I hated Scream V and I don’t care who knows it, but Scream VI did the impossible and got me back on board. It was far better than a fifth sequel should be and the core four are wonderful leads. It’s mind boggling that Paramount and Spyglass have chosen to sink the franchise now.
@LEMONSQU4RES@cyberghostface Agreed! The franchise is 100% soft rebootable, but it’s not there yet. We need a closing chapter for the Core Four, followed by a 5-8 year break, then an H20-style relaunch with Sid’s return (with her now-teenaged daughters.)

The fact there’s a hit Goosebumps TV series right now and no magazine publisher is seizing the opportunity to do a weekly magazine where you can collect every book… DO THEY NOT LIKE MONEY?

Rob’s radio show is broadcast in the dead of night and usually the call-ins are uneventful. Tonight, though, there’s an odd voice on line one…

We have a new episode out and I managed to upload a version of the file playing at 200% speed, whoops. Managed to fix it in minutes, but my sincerest apologies to the 39 people who downloaded it first 😂
...They're setting up their cards perfectly for a soft reboot in a few years time that brings back Sid and her now-teenaged daughters.
Scream could achieve the amazing feat of reaching movie 8 and having their own H20 moment, all without having to reboot continuity even once.
I hope the very first thing they do with Scream VII is make a firm decision on whether they intend the series to end or continue and get the studio and creative teams on the same page.
If they decide to end it, then step two is obvious: get Neve on the phone immediately.
BUT...
If they think there's life beyond the seventh installment, Sid needs to be left out. The last movie proved the new cast can carry it alone and VII should be treated as the conclusion of their trilogy.
And by letting Sid sit this one out again...
