Chucky

This 2021 series "Chucky" is such a blast. Especially if you enjoyed the original "Child's Play" movies.

I have to admit that when I stumbled upon this series, then I hadn't actually heard about it being made, so it was a surprise to find this. Needless to say that I had to watch it, as I have seen all of the movies in the franchise and always found the movies enjoyable.

And "Chucky" is a blast. I have to say that. Especially since it is so much in tune with the spirit and the essence of the original movies, and let's just completely forget about that abysmal 2019 remake. And it was such a thrill to have Brad Dourif return to do the voice of Chucky, as there simply can be none other to voice that psychotic murdering doll. And the series also have the likes of Jennifer Tilly, Devon Sawa and Lexa Doig on the cast list, so that was quite nice.

The storyline told in the 2021 series is good, as it is a mixture of the old classics and spruced up with up-to-date contents, for better or worse. I have to say that it is sort of wearing thin that everything that is churned out from Hollywood now needs to please that whole Woke movement. Yeah, even in here, you have teen gay romance. I have nothing against gay, but it just becomes sort of a drag that is has to be forced in to be as politically correct as possible.

Visually then "Chucky" is a joy to watch, as it is every bit as bloody and gruesome as the movies, and has all the wonderful witty banter from Chucky.

I am rating this 2021 series a well-deserved seven out of ten stars.

I'm going to leave an honest review here. This series started out fantastic the cast was good, the concept was great and I really appreciated the return of virtually all the original movie cast reprising their roles. Season one is what got me hooked it was very good. Season two was good but started to falter towards the end it would have been much better without that Christmas episode. Then there was Season three. I don't know what happened there, wether they changed writers or lost their way is hard to say. The whole Whitehouse idea was really stupid and ruined the whole thing. I don't understand why they took that direction Season three is why the show wasn't renewed it was such a bad end to a show that started out great. In closing I will suggest watching the series but end it at Season two because it concluded the story reasonably without getting ridiculous.

The series bring the traditional nice, small town vibe with new narratives. Pretty impressed with the doll's comeback. Hope they don't rely on jump scares, fan service or nostalgia too much. Keep it fresh, relevant, gore and smart! Go Chucky!

"Chucky" is a very surprisingly enjoyable show. It's got all the things you'd want to see in a Child's Play show. With fun gore, quick pacing, and some surprisingly good messages. This show is heading in the right direction

Starting off with the good. The acting is really good. Everyone in the show plays the role either really well, or so over the top that it works for this source material. Of course Brad Dourif is great once again as Chucky. The show also has great pacing. The first episode moved very quickly. I also liked how funny the show was. There were quite a few jokes that made me laugh. And finally this show really incorporates great messages about, bullying, and LGBT. I think that's a very great thing to talk about, and it added some nuance to the characters

I have a few issues with the show. The style of the show while great, at times can get a little too much. And it kinda feels like they're struggling to balance that comedy, and horror. And finally I don't think it's necessary to retell Chucky's backstory.

But still aside from that "Chucky" is a really fun, and promising series with good acting, fast pacing, some great callbacks, and some really great messages that help the show feel more nuanced.

I never knew that this show was on tv. Again I have to say that bad promotions on horror shows will do that. I was curious about this show when I saw a clip of it on youtube. Now I am hooked. I never thought a tv show about a creepy doll would work well in tv. But this show is really good. I also find it very funny that Jennifer Tilly is in this show acting as Tiffany and acting as her self. I find it very clever. Also I like that each season to different story lines. I also enjoy the music it can sound haunting or sad but it puts the mood in each episode of the different story time lines. I am very happy watching this show.
