Round 6: Tossup 7
This time period partially titles a franchise in which a pageant performance of Irene Cara’s “Fame” occurs while a killer attacks on a balcony. The Taylor’s Version of “This Love” premiered in trailers for a show named for this time period, which also partially names a 2025 horror sequel starring Jennifer Love Hewitt. This time period names a Taylor Swift song that states “no rules in breakable heaven,” which plays while Belly gets ready to go to Cousins in an Amazon Prime series.
