For graphic sexual dialogue and depictions of violence on a program rated TV-14 DLSV, the October 20th episode of Fox’s Scream Queens is this week’s Misrated TV show.
No program on television today better demonstrates the inaccuracy and even deliberate deceptiveness of the TV content ratings system than Fox’s Scream Queens. Containing graphic gore more appropriate to an R-rated horror movie, and sexual dialogue more at home on a cheesy Cinemax soft-core porno film, the Fox broadcast network nevertheless assigns Scream Queens a rating appropriate for 14 year old children.
