Need to catch up on Heathers? The five night binge-a-thon begins on Thursday, October 25th at 10 PM ET/PT on Paramount Network. A reimagining of the 1988 cult-classic film, Paramount Network will air two episodes a night, from October 25 to October 29. The binge begins on Thursday, October 25 with two episodes per night at 10 & 11 PM ET/PT through Sunday, October 29. There is a supersized finale on Monday, October 30 at 10 PM, ET/PT, followed by the premiere of a new Heathers themed episode of Lip Sync Battle with Melanie Field (Heather Chandler) and Brendan Scannell (Heather Duke).
Heathers centers around "good girl" Veronica Sawyer (Grace Victoria Cox), who deals with a very different but equally vicious group of "Heathers." Heather Chandler (Melanie Field) is the unconventional leader of this popular high school clique and rules Westerburg High through fear, intimidation and amazing fashion sense. Heather Duke (Brendan Scannell) is Heather C's #1 sidekick and harnesses the Heather's power to destroy whoever he views as a total discount hobgoblin. Heather McNamara (Jasmine Mathews) is considered the nicest Heather in the group who lives in the shadow of the others. She's hiding a dark secret that she doesn't want to be exposed. JD Dean (James Scully) is the new boy in town with a dark side and sets out on a reckless path of destruction proving that no one, even his girlfriend Veronica is safe. Original Heathers cast member Shannen Doherty guest stars as a pivotal character in several episodes along with Selma Blair and Casey Wilson.
