Storyline

- TriviaWhen Junior asks Chucky why he didn't simply kill Andy, the red-headed fiend remarks that he'd had a gun. "I hate guns," he elaborates. "They are like my Achilles Heel along with axes, fire, and industrial-sized fans." As longtime Child's Play viewers will recognize, each was a reference that correlated to an actual defeat -- with the ax used in Seed of Chucky and the giant fan being a part of Child's Play 3.
- GoofsThe flashback in which Tiffany claims that she tipped off the police about Chucky needs to be reconciled with the scene in Curse of Chucky in which Chucky says that Sarah Peirce had tipped off the police. This might be reconciled by simply saying that Chucky had guessed wrong. Some fans of Curse of Chucky had questioned how Sarah could have alerted the police when she was being kept bound and gagged by Chucky, so it might be that Chucky blamed her wrongly when the police arrived.

True To Tradition, With Modern Twists - S01 Review
In addition to using traditional elements from the original Chucky movie franchise - which began with the 1988 "Child's Play" and included seven other titles - "Chucky" season one brought entertainment, horror, suspense, and humour in good measure.
Directors Don Mancini, Dermott Downs, Leslie Libman, Samir Rehem, and Jeff Renfroe did notable work. Writers Don Mancini, Harley Peyton, Nick Zigler, Sarah Acosta, Mallory Westfall, Kim Garland, Rachael Paradis, and Isabella Gutierrez scripted a remarkable S01 that was as nostalgic as it was detailed.
Joseph LoDuca's musical scoring was outstanding. Great soundtracks too. Colin Hoult's cinematography was superb. Great work on editing, set decoration, and production design. VFX and art direction, along with CGI, were amazing. Hair-makeup and costume design were both noteworthy.
The practical effects and puppeteering team did exceptional work bringing Chucky to life in ways that reminded me so much of 'movie magic' from the 80s. In some sequences, Chucky was physically performed by Nick A. Fisher, who did great work at that.
Jake Wheeler, played by Zackary Arthur, was good. Devon Evans, played by Bjorgvin Arnarson, was great. Lexy Cross, played by Alyvia Alyn Lind, was amazing. Wheeler Jr., played by Teo Briones, was good.
Both Logan and Luke Wheeler were double-acted by Devon Sawa, who was amazing - his 'bad dad' version, though brief, was outstanding. Detective Evans, played by Rachelle Casseus, was good. Miss Fairchild, played by Annie Briggs, was also good.
Nica Pierce, played by Fiona Dourif, was great - a comeback performance from "Cult of Chucky" (2017). Tiffany Valentine, played by Jennifer Tilly, was good - she was not new to the "Chucky" franchise either, and did notable work in "Bride of Chucky" (1998).
Young Charles Lee Ray was played by David Kohlsmith and Tyler Barish, who were both quite good. Bree Wheeler, played by Lexa Doig, was good. Mayor Michelle Cross, played by Barbara Alyn Woods, was good. Caroline Cross, played by Carina Battrick, was noteworthy. Kyle, played by Christine Elise, was great. Andy Barclay, played by Alex Vincent, was good.
I can't be remiss and leave out the voice of 'Good Guy Doll' Chucky. Brad Dourif returned after all these years to make this possible. He made season 1 unforgettable simply by being part of the production. There was a sinister 'energy' in the man's voice that cannot be replaced.
All other cast and crew did good work in "Chucky" Season 1, streaming now on SYFY.
I was glad to learn that season 2 "Chucky" was greenlit, which was the main reason I even decided to watch S01. Because who'd have wanted to have a childhood horror-memory sliced and diced like one of Chucky's victims by getting a terrible 2k-era series. The Conjuring's Annabelle has nothing on this little monster, whose doll-bod in truth housed the soul (after a voodoo soul transfer spell) of serial killer Charles Lee Ray.
A few convenient plot-points aside, season 1 of "Chucky" turned out great. It held fast to its core story arc, provided good backstory, and did not deviate too much from its core arc. Some of the acting could have been better, though.
The series also contained strong 80s vibes, and that's never a bad thing. This 8-episode series was memorable, and it made me wish I started it sooner. The finale held great promise and set the stage for "Chucky" season 2. That direct-to-audience talk from Chucky was to die for, pun intended.
The original "Child's Play" held plenty of scary and fond memories for me growing up. My grandmother used to have life-life dolls of all shapes and sizes, and watching this movie back in the day made me dread paying her a visit. Now that I've 'all grown up', watching this notable adaptation made me realize that Chucky still has the power to send chills down my spine.
