Scream Queens: The doctors are in (unfortunately)

Welcome to Ryan Murphy's Scream Queens, where everything is extremely implausible in hopes of passing it off as comedy. It's the annual Halloween party at Our Lady of Perpetual Suffering hospital in the year of 1985...

Binge or no? Netflix’s Stranger Things
