Taylor Swift Song of the Day: “Maroon” (Midnights)

Ryan C. Showers and contributor Jess Melendez use the soft, rumored announcement of “Scream 8” as a “Sidney story” to analyze and compare the “Scream” and “Halloween” franchises, focusing on the necessity and public perception of Neve Campbell and Jamie Lee Curtis. Specifically, they take a long-arc view of both franchises and compare the Danielle Harris entries of “Halloween” in the 1980s to “Scream” (2022) and “Scream VI.” The conversation highlights the importance of Sidney Prescott's character in the “Scream” series and critiques the notion of passing the torch to new characters. Then, Ryan invites Quentin Harrison for the first-ever “Ryan’s Reviews” segment covering the Jack Quaid film from January 2025, “Companion.”
