Scream Queens literally has all the makings of a great show, A-list actors, high budget etc - but if people don't click with a show that's just how it is I guess. It surprises me that something as campy and cringe worthy as Glee did so well for so long, but SQ's is struggling. I think part of it is the writing tbh, Ryan Murphy has really terrific ideas but struggles to translate it on to screen.
Either way, I love the show and look forward to watching it weekly. If it weren't for Emma, Niecy (Denise) and JL Curtis though, I think it wouldn't be so great.
