Chucky and Child's Play fans it's been about four or five years since we last saw anything new from our favourite killer doll who also has a killer wit and a killer sense of humour. Well now he's only gone and got himself his own TV show and well you just knew that I was going to make a first impressions post on the very show the very first chance that I got and well the show has just aired it's very first episode and so here are my spoiler free first impressions of the TV that's proof that you cannot keep a good killer doll with the TV show in question being called simply just "Chucky" enjoy.
The plot of this episode is fourteen year old outcast Jake Wheeler finds himself buying a retro Good Guys doll from someone who he trusts without realising that that doll has some very killer plans in mind for Jake Wheeler and his friends and family and will do anything to accomplish those plans. Now then in terms of what I personally thought / feel about the plot of this episode in all honesty I in all honesty thought / feel that the plot of this episode was rather weak which is to expected since this is the first episode of a TV show but that's also the main problem with this episodes plotline it doesn't make you want to come back and watch episode two or even the rest of the show which is a huge freaking problem in my opinion anyways / at least.
Starring in this episode is Zackary Arthur as Jake Wheeler , Alyvia Alyn Lind as Lexy Taylor and Teo Briones as Junior Wheeler. Also starring in this episode is Björgvin Arnarson as Devon Evans , Devon Sawa as Logan Wheeler and Lucas Wheeler , Lexa Doig as Bree Wheeler , Annie Briggs as Miss Fairchild , Precious Chong as Mrs. Jolly , Nick A Fisher as The Good Guys Doll Voice , Rachelle Casseus as Detective Evans , Travis Milne as Detective Peyton , Jana Peck as Principal McVey and of course we also have the great Brad Dourif as The Voice Of Chucky.
Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode in all honesty I in all honesty thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was really freaking good. Which I thought was really surprising since none of the actors that are appearing in / starring in this very episode are quote unquote named actors and so this episode really god have been all over the place in terms of acting which thankfully it really wasn't in my freaking opinion anyways / at least.
Now then whenever a horror franchise is popular it almost right away gets a TV series spin off and yet some strange reason the makers of this very TV show chose to wait until many decades after the franchise was at it's peek in popularity. Which I personally thought to be a rather brave move since you very easily would and more importantly could have gotten alot more viewers if this show was made and released when the Child's Play franchise was made at it's absolute peek in popularity in my opinion anyways / at least.
Now then biggest issue that I personally had with this horror themed TV show / TV series is that for the most part of this debuting episode this episode feels more like a teenage soap opera drama that one would expect to see on The CW and not something that you'd expect or even want to see in a horror themed TV show. Look I get it this is the shows first episode and so alot of things have to be set up you can ease up on the drama since you don't need to fill up your first with eight episodes worth of drama it just makes your episode seem kind of freaking dull and kind of freaking boring in my freaking opinion anyways / at least.
Now then in terms of slasher horror films getting / being turned into a TV show / TV series this show is so far at least on track to being one of the more better ones. Which granted isn't a huge deal since for one thing there aren't that many TV shows that are spin off of off slasher horror films in the first place and secondly the ones that we do have are at best average and so saying that this is show is better then say Scream: The TV Series or even Freddy's Nightmares: A Nightmare On Elm Street The Series isn't really a freaking high bar to reach in my freaking opinion anyways / at least.
So now then I have to admit that interms of what I thought about this shows characters so far at least all of the characters that are in this show seems to be pretty freaking unlikeable. Even the main protagonist comes across as being either unlikeable or just annoying so far yes this could of course change over the shows remaining seven episodes but you only get one chance to make a good first impression and so far this shows characters have made a fairly freaking bad first impression on me personally in my opinion anyways / at least.
So now then this episode has / had a grand total running time of exactly forty six minuets and forty two seconds and well in all honesty I in all honesty really didn't mind this episodes running time. Altho I am surprised that they chose to make this show have essentially forty five minuet episodes when having each episode be at least one hour without commercials would have worked out much better in this episodes favour in my opinion anyways / at least.
Now then since this show is based on a slasher horror film series that means that there are infact some kills in this very episode which infact that I have to talk about the kills that are featured / presented to us in this very episode and well in al honesty I in all honesty think / feel that the kills that are featured / presented to us in this very episode are really good. That's sadly all that I can say about the kills that are in this episode since the kills that are in this very episode are infact but lets just say that the kills that are in this very episode are infact some very shocking kills indeed in my freaking opinion anyways / at least.
Overall this wasn't a bad first episode but at the same time this first episode left an awful lot to be desired and this show does have an awful of promise to be something that's actually good and not something that will be a one season wonder in my opinion anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very episode in this very post and now then tho I will not be giving this episode a rating simply because this is only the shows first ever episode and this isn't a review this is just my first impressions of the show and not an actual review of the show in question.
Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very post well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very post from the official Child's Play fandom wiki page , the official Scream fandom wiki page and lastly from Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because Google Images actually has images from this film up on Google Images and pus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all fairly high quality and as well as being as fairly high definition and so then horror fans we ends this review as we always do with our ne and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some very unpleasant dreams.
