- đž It's been a few weeks since we've talked slashers, and figured now would be the perfect time to dive into the first season of the brand new Chucky television series that debuted last fall. Join us as we talk about how the Child's Play franchise continues to be the most inclusive, hilarious, and respectful-of-its-fans horror franchise, and as we delight in all of the juicy performances from both new and returning cast members. We'll also discuss the nods to the past movies, what we would like to see in Chucky Season Two, and of course choose which character we think was most deserving to die.

Itâs interesting that Logan reverts to Lukeâs vices after they face the same horrible turn in life (their wives and the mother of their children dying). And with Jake explaining that he and his dad used to be friends, itâs implied that the turn taken with Junior and Logan is the same one we never saw of Jake and Luke
I think the TV series far outpaces anything the movies have given us. Don Mancini was under pressure to deliver the slasher movie goods in 90 minutes each time out. By the time the series had been greenlit, the movies had fully embraced how utterly ridiculous the whole concept is. I think the format gave Mancini the freedom to really address the themes he always wanted to more explicitly: adolescent angst, social pressure, gay coming of age. I was initially hesitant to watch the show because of how trashy I thought the movies are, but once I was talked into watching it, I was surprised and even genuinely moved by its story, which I was not expecting at all. I'm glad this show exists, and I can't wait for the next season.
I adore this season. I think itâs Chuckyâs finest hour.
Zack, I know you've got the next couple months planned, but can I put in a request for Alien and The Descent after this round is done? Those are my two favorites along with Scream.
You may be in for a treat
i love Lexy so much and i would totally say she is my favourite new character. đ
Chucky was a awesome idea that Don Mancini come up with for a tv show.
I really, REALLY enjoyed season 1. I thought that the pilot was a little too slow and was really worried, but ep 2 was solid and got me hooked. I'm tangentially related to Dinah Manoff who played Aunt Maggie in the original film, so this franchise has a special place in my heart.
Who whoa whoa! Logan wasnât that bad a guy, he asked Junior if he was actually interested in cross country essentially giving him an out.
He constantly pulled him up for being shitty to Jake and was great to Jake all around.
The drink driving wasnât great but his wife did just die so he was clearly distressed, not an excuse but he didnât deserve to die over it.
Maybe Iâm biased when Devon Sawa is involved as idle hands was so dope
Iâm a massive legacy Chucky fan and this was VEEERRRRY hit and miss for me. For every awesome thing that happened there were 2 moments ofâŠhuh?
Agreed. Nothing against Jennifer Tilly but I feel Tiffany just dragged from the main story and was forced into it, even taking away from the season finale.
She needs her own arc independently from Chucky, not overshadowing him.
Fucking love this episode. Comfort podcast fo sure
Finally got to watch the series. Now listening to the podcast to hear Zack's opinion cause I know Eddie loves the franchise. Why did I think the Bio teacher was gunna end up being Glen/Glenda at one point
Growing up in the late 80's and 90's as a gay kid and guy I wish I had shows like this.
The I Know What You Did Last Summer was honestly one of the worst tv shows I've ever seen, BUT there was one scene in particular that I thought was great which was the opener to episode 6. That was legit for anything in the horror genre.
Omg I forgot they even did that. I remember how horrible the trailer was, but I kinda want to watch it
@@sierracindrell5775 after watching it, I now firmly believe in the existence of aliens as no human being would write the kind of dialogue and scenarios shown in the series.
I think itâs stupid fun, buuut it def shouldnât have been ikwydls.
đ
So on the Lucas/Logan conversation. It's heavily implied that Lucas didn't become an alcoholic or at least didn't become violent until after Jake's mother died in a car crash. Lucas became an abuser because of heavy alcohol use after his wife died. Logan begins consuming heavy amounts of alcohol right after his wife dies, and it's implied that his spiraling would have only gotten worse if it was allowed to continue. We as the audience weren't supposed to turn on Logan yet, but we're supposed to know we would have had to if it escalated any more.
I listen to quite a few film podcasts, but this is the only one that doesnât include a brief plot synopsis at the start of the show. Is this something you might consider including in the future? You and Eddie are so entertaining and knowledgeable that Iâm sure there must be lots of us who enjoy hearing your discussions even when itâs for a film we havenât actually seen. Anyway, thank you for the fantastic content, I always look forward to each new episode đ
something to consider, thanks
@@thecherrypicker Youâre welcome, and thanks again to you and Eddie for being so talented and awesome :)
I'm delighted to hear my name here as a new patron lol. I really enjoyed this series despite minor issues with it and I've come to appreciate Chucky so much more as I've gotten older after being just a casual fan when I was younger. Junior was my choice to die even though I understand Eddie's defense of him. I just couldn't get past his bullying of Jake and even though the actor did a good job, we don't need that character going forward. As someone who knows about what happens in the later Chucky movies without actually having watched them I never felt lost with where the show was going. I'm excited for season 2.
Delighted to say your name!
Dude!....Chucky is so F'ing hilarious. SO F'ING HILAAAAARIOUS!
Now I'm just patiently waiting for you guys to cover season 2
This was such a fun show! Even though Curse and Cult are me least favorites, the tie ins are really cool and they make those movies matter more to me, Iâll have to revisit them!
I would love to see you both dig into the scream TV series. Even if yâall donât like it, Iâd be down for two hours of poking fun at it đ (I love the first two season since revisiting them all these years later, season 1 being the stand out for me.)
Zach Cherry and Edward of truth
When Devon, Jake and Levon are visiting the cemetery at the end of season 1 a gloved hand is seen resting on a tree that is there
This movie series like most horror series get slightly worse. Haven't seen the show yet since Australia sees to get everything so late after the release đ. Podcast definitely worth listening to even if I haven't seen the show
In the end of the season, there is a black glove grabbing the tree in the cemetery and watching the kids, and with her pointing out the gloves earlier, I think Kyle might actually be alive. Though, that begs the question of who the âreported casualtiesâ were. Was it because of chuckyâs exploded body? Like the blood?
Many questions. Hyped for season 2
oh wow, I completely forgot about that.
1st half was great, second half was all over the place. Mainly from forcing Tiffany into the story and giving her a separate scheme.
Her mood swings are getting annoying.
I loved it. Probably my favorite series right now, & I'm glad that they are filming season 2 right now.
1:19:10 good to see you're so open minded Zach lol
Not gonna lie I'm the same way with Lexy, her character went from mocking the death of someone's parent to doing her best Vin Diesel impression saying they're family in a couple of episodes yea it was way too quick of a turnaround. This season was up and down throughout but still excited to see where they go next season. This is definitely one of the most consistent horror franchise.
I have my issues with season 1, but I think it's solid for the most part.
Hi!
I love these, Zack, but sometimes you should let the other guy talk. You interrupt a lot :(
Have not even got close to watching the series yet, similar to the scream series..like I love the original movies but just not ready for a modern day remake series
Someone gave you misinformation. Chucky is a direct continuation of the movie series.
The series is a continuation to the "cult of Chucky" movie. You should really watch it.
At least watch the first 2 episodes & quit if you don't like it, but I bet you'll end up watching the whole season đ It's a lot of fun
Bride of chucky is was high school kidâs
Played by people in their mid to late 20s haha
Jennifer Tilly is more drag queen and more Diva than any woman in history. Period.
I know what you did last summer tv show is an absolute mess. I was excited for it but felt immediate disappointment đ
The Chucky tv series definitely had some really great episodes and moments but it did feel a bit hit or miss for me at times. I thought it was enjoyable overall but in terms of horror, I wonât find this memorable.
