The pilot will begin with a YouTube video going viral, which soon leads to problems for teenager Audrey and seemingly serves as the catalyst for a murder that opens up a window in the quiet town of Lakewood with a troubled past.

Why MTV's 'Scream' is not using the film's Ghostface mask

After MTV announced that the network’s Scream adaptation had been picked up to series, news spread that the show did not have the rights to use the iconic Ghostface mask that is synonymous with the franchise. You may have been one of the many fans scratching your head wondering: How is this Scream without the Scream mask?! Read More

It’s a darker, almost more grounded, evolved version of the mask,” says Mina Lefevre

I liked the movies & I am interested in this series. That quote makes me laugh though. :rommie:
 
It doesn't look terrible, but I can't say I'm going to watch it. I like the Scream films (more or less), but without the original characters I'm just not that interested.
 
I wonder about timing as well. I question if deconstructing slasher movies has the same resonance with the audiences of 2015 as the post-80s original had in 1996.
 
Maybe they can also deconstruct the new wave of horror TV shows: American Horror Story, The Walking Dead, True Blood, Teen Wolf, etc.

"They only kill major characters during sweeps!"
