	Author	Review
United States	BJ Colangelo SlashFilm	"[3rd Season Review]: 'Chucky' is still one of the best horror shows on TV and he's got my vote for four more years (at least)"	POS
United States	Chase Hutchinson Collider	"[3rd Season Review]: For a series all about death, 'Chucky' still has plenty of life. Its cast is impeccable, the kills wonderfully unhinged, and the humor remains as sharp as ever."	POS
Canada	Alex Maidy JoBlo	"[3rd Season Review]: There are worse ways to spend your October weeknights than seeing Chucky slice and dice his way through our Nation’s Capital, but I wish I could be more enthusiastic"	NEU
United States	Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting	"[3rd Season Review]: Once again, 'Chucky' delivers excessive blood splatter and campy fun. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Saloni Gajjar AV Club	"[3rd Season Review]: the show's best chapter yet (...) SYFY's campy slasher returns with a freaky—and freakin' fantastic—batch of episodes"	POS
United States	John Serba Decider	"[3rd Season Review]: Funny, how this series finds a way to balance the extremity of dark comedy with a palpable sense of loss (...) The biggest surprise here? How entertaining this dumbass franchise is in 2023."	POS
United States	Alyse Wax Collider	"[2nd Season Review]: 'Chucky' Season 2 is already shaping up to be great — full of laugh, love, insanity, and plenty of blood."	POS
Canada	Alex Maidy JoBlo	"[2nd Season Review]: If you enjoyed the first season of Chucky, you will likely enjoy this one as well. The kills continue to be creative and Brad Dourif laughing maniacally is a welcome addition to any Halloween season."	POS
United States	Steven Scaife Slant	"[2nd Season Review]: Though the series is still bracingly audacious, season two too often opts for full-throated fan service (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Tom Philip AV Club	"[2nd Season Review]: The killer doll is up to his old tricks, but even after five decades the franchise still feels fresh"	POS
United States	Jeff Ewing SlashFilm	"[2nd Season Review]: While a few important factors need a little time to land properly, so far it seems to have the right stuff to stick yet another TV landing"	POS
United States	Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting	"While the introductory premiere gets the series off to a somewhat strange start, it feels good to have Chucky -and Dourif- back in practical effect-driven form (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
Canada	Alex Maidy JoBlo	"A really solid mix of dark humor and violent slasher kills, 'Chucky' is a great watch this Halloween season."	POS
United States	Candice Frederick The Wrap	"New series is richer, more personal than the 'Child’s Play' films — but just as frightening (...) We get a more fleshed out, deeply human protagonist"	POS
United States	Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"It’s easy to focus on clumsy dialogue and a slew of flat characterizations, but if all you require in a 'Child’s Play' TV show is the basics (...) then it delivers on that promise"	NEU
United States	Tom Jorgensen IGN	"Chucky does a great job of translating the Child’s Play formula to television (...) While you won’t have to worry about sleeping with the light on, the premiere is an effective, witty next step for the worst 'Good Guy' ever."	POS
United States	Austen Goslin Polygon	"It’s all appealingly silly, and for longtime fans of the franchise, this show is sure to kill."	POS
United States	Kristen Lopez IndieWire	"Even if you’re not a long-time supporter, this is the perfect slasher series for you to watch this Halloween season."	POS
United States	Alyse Wax Collider	"A weak outing for the classic evil doll. The highlight is Brad Dourif, returning to give Chucky that killer edge."	NEU
Canada	Josh Bell CBR	"It's a bit lumbering at the start, but Mancini has proved over 30-plus years and seven movies that he knows what he's doing when it comes to Chucky."	POS
United States	Joel Keller Decider	"'Chucky' adds some fun story elements to the 'murdering doll' dynamic, bringing the franchise back to it’s earliest days"	POS
United States	Alex McLevy AV Club	"Does it make much sense? No. But it’s fun to see it play out with a mischievous sense of anything-goes silliness"	NEU
United States	Steven Scaife Slant	"A gruesome, surprisingly insightful coming-of-age story. Chucky walks a fascinating tonal tightrope as a funny, absurd series that engenders sympathy as well as shock (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Allison Keene Paste Magazine	"A delightfully deranged return in a new series full of familiar mayhem"	POS
United States	Chris Evangelista SlashFilm	"The elusive nature of what's going on starts to drag 'Chucky' down a bit, and the episodes start to grow repetitive"	NEG
