Chucky

Am I the only person who think that doll is acting better and looks more realistic than the rest of the team?

As for the show it's quite alright but definitely not a must see.

3 episodes in and I'm probably about to give up on this honestly. Started ok with a first episode that's enjoyable. And the doll looks great in general, but it's been almost unwatchable after that pilot. Other than being tame for TV, it's just downright boring most of the time. Some episodes even have zero or maybe 1 kill in them and consist of just people talking. When they do die, it's mostly just random side character who was introduced 5 mins ago usually.

The gore is neutered, chuckys plan makes no sense (why is he helping this kid at all or trying to get him to kill people - he gets busted and chucky is in an evidence locker sooo...?), the characters are so over the top as to not even belong in reality, it's clearly some old man trying to write dialogue for current teenage characters, they forced Dourif's daughter into a character for some reason even though she's awful and couldn't save the series in those mediocre cult or curse movies, etc.

This is basically just trying to get tweens into the child's play franchise, and I don't know why. It's all the worst parts of curse and cult of chucky thrown together with some CW type garbage, and made boring and episodic for mainstream TV.

The less said about the editing the better. Episode 2 was seriously hard to follow because obviously scenes were cut to fit into the hour time slot - stuff made no sense and we were constantly wondering if we had missed a scene somehow. But no, it was just legitimately that poorly put together.

If you want to see a teenage drama TV show with little sprinklings of a chucky doll cursing here and there, this will fit the bill. Otherwise just skip this if you're a fan of the original movies...

I would have given this an 8 were it not for the unbelievably terrible acting of Zachary Arthur, who plays one of the lead roles. He appears to have been pulling a sad /confused face when the wind changed and that seems to be his entire acting range. I think he went to the same acting classes as Jared Padalecki.

Apart from the awkward and strange acting of the new cast members, this holds up well to the movies. The teens are the worst part of this show. Cringeworthy performances all around. I took it off 2 stars for their terrible acting. The rest of the gang from the movies deliver everything I've come to expect from the Child's Play movies. Without them this wouldn't have a leg to stand on.

Everyone who loved the first movies so much, lynched this production aimlessly.

This is ridiculous, because this show is better than most of the 'chucky' movies.

Moreover, Zachary Arthur has done a very good acting.

Old story, new perspective.

An above average production.
