“Scream Queens” stars Jamie as the dean of a university, where Kappa Kappa Tau sorority sisters, led by Emma Roberts’ gang of Chanels, rule. Two decades after a murder took place on campus, another one rocks the school.
“There’s nothing like it on television,” Jamie told Access Hollywood of her new series. “I don’t think there’s been anything like it ever on television. It is a hybrid of wickedly funny and seriously scary storytelling and the characters that have been written are these arc types of evil and complication that then evolve — every single character on the show. So you have great, great characters, you have a very compelling actual scary storyline and then it’s just wickedly funny. Like laugh out loud funny.”
