Leans Progressive
Primary
The series primarily functions as a slasher horror narrative, exploring themes of cyberbullying, identity, and the consequences of past secrets through individual character arcs and survival, without explicitly promoting a specific political ideology.
The series features a visibly diverse ensemble cast, including characters of various ethnicities and a prominent lesbian character, reflecting a modern high school setting. However, its narrative remains focused on slasher horror tropes and mystery, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or making DEI themes central to the plot.
Secondary
The series features openly gay character Noah Foster and bisexual character Zoe Vaughn. Their identities are presented as normal aspects of their complex personalities. Their relationship is depicted with dignity and genuine affection, without being sensationalized or serving as a source of ridicule or misery within the slasher narrative.
Scream: The TV Series does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The narrative focuses on a group of teenagers targeted by a serial killer, exploring themes of social media, past secrets, and identity within that context, without engaging with transgender identity.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Scream: The TV Series introduces an entirely new cast of characters and a new storyline, rather than adapting specific legacy characters from the original film franchise with different genders. No established character from the source material was portrayed as a different gender.
The 2015 'Scream' TV series features an original cast of characters created for the show, rather than adapting or recasting established characters from the original film franchise. As such, no characters with a previously established race were portrayed by actors of a different race.
