If Fox is looking to tap into the audience looking for something new to watch while their other shows are on hiatus, Scream Queens could be a good fit.
The numbers were more or less consistent over the last five episodes of Season 2, and Scream Queens could be a good fit for a show to air as a winter series while bigger shows are on hiatus.
Granted, both of those shows have been cancelled, but both also scored higher ratings than Scream Queens.
That said, it’s not impossible for Fox to give the show a chance for a Season 3.
