Court Reporter Spotted: Scream Queens- Season 1, Episode 13

Scream Queens Season 1In The court scene, in season’s one final episode of Scream Queens, you can see a court reporter. It looks like she may be using a Stentura. I’ve never seen a court reporter write like this in real life, with their machine with an attached paper tray sitting slanted on top of a desk…I still love seeing court reporters depicted on film though.

Check out the scene below:

I love the fashion on this show. I also love that, in this scene, Billie Lourd replaced her ubiquitous earmuffs with a hairstyle that pays homage to her mom. This show reminds me of Popular. Did anyone else watch that show growing up?
