Dearly Beloved
Is this the intro it is?
We gather here to say our goodbye
Here she lies
Chuckie
Okay
This is the Reject Nation
We have to tell you guys something
Today we are covering
Season 1 episode 7 and 8 of Chuckie
We have been watching
Chuckie every week
Multiple times a week for the last
It feels like a year
but it hasn't been that long.
Several months.
This has become one of my
and Tara's absolute favorite
franchises of all time.
We are just completely obsessed.
And those of you guys who did find us,
you are as obsessed as we are,
which has been so unbelievably cool
and welcoming and filled with love
and queerness and just beauty all around.
And we are so, so grateful for you guys.
You are small, but you are mighty.
Here is the truth
We're just gonna rip the Band-Aid off
This will be our last Chucky reaction
Not because you guys weren't liking and commenting
But just because there weren't enough of you guys
We just didn't get enough of those views
Yeah, it's the views
It's not, we're preaching to the choir right now
If you're here, then you are not part of the problem
I think sometimes people don't even realize
What goes into actually making these videos
It's not just me and you
And then we upload it
It's like an entire team of editors and then re-editing and making sure that these are perfect and that they're getting the views on Patreon and that they're getting the downloads on Apple and Spotify and that they're getting the views and the likes and the comments and that the sponsorships are there for all of those reasons.
We just can't do season two and three.
But I have a feeling that Tara and I will probably watch those at some point, tweet out to you guys, let you guys know in the community page, how we feel about everything.
And we couldn't be more grateful.
Let's go out with a bang team.
Don't forget, like, comment, subscribe.
Ring the bell.
Ring the bow.
Chuck, Chuck.
I know.
And it's crazy because I don't know what's going to happen in episode 7 and 8,
but I have a feeling there's going to be some deaths,
and there's going to be those deaths,
and then the death of the reactions to Chuck E.
So this is a big funeral episode.
Severus, we don't like it, but we got to do what you got to do.
We'll move on to some super fun stuff.
sure yet, but we'll keep up with the horror stuff.
You know us, Shee Jackson.
It'll be something just as exciting, we hope.
And we're doing Friday the 13th right now, too.
So if you want to catch us, I believe that they're starting to do Friday the 13th on Thursdays, if you want to catch those.
Plus, you can always go back and watch what we did for Nightmare on Elm Street.
Yeah.
And we are the horror horrors.
We are the Scream Queens.
We are the Sheeject, so we are not going anywhere.
Tara and I both have a bunch of ideas.
We've been reading what you guys are saying in the comments.
No promises, but we'll read them all.
anything you recommend that we do and we pitch
it to Greg with all of our might. We really
do. I can't tell you guys how
sad Greg was
when he came in and he knew
that it was there was no more of this
we can't give Greg any crap because
truly this is like he did
was disappointed. He was like I just can't
guys it's just
I can't I can't and I was like
all right this is the one one that I won't throw you under
the bus Greg. Every other one
I'm throwing right under there
thank you guys so much for watching
Thank you to Prepper for helping edit us down for this entire franchise in every episode that we do here.

No, except that we'll miss you and the Chucky.
Oh my God.
Damn, dude.
We got to stop this so it doesn't play.
Whoa, okay.
Okay, so we finished season one.
It couldn't have been better.
It was, it was great.
That finale, I didn't not know what to expect.
Are you a finale girl or a finale girl?
That finale.
Yeah.
You finale.
Finale.
Finale.
Do you bagel or bagel?
Series finale.
It's a bagel.
How do you spell theater?
T-H-E-A-T-E-R.
How do you?
Oh, E-R.
Yeah, theater.
Okay.
Not like theater.
Hmm.
You're an interesting one, Tara.
Quite the bird over here.
Hmm.
I don't even know what that means.
Me neither.
Man, dude.
this was it was really something because it's like I don't know what the hell that one innocent thing is we get an whole army for one innocent right but this show has built up so much goodwill that I'm like I know that that makes sense in whatever in whatever yeah like whatever voodoo world you guys have created whatever the god of this world is he said somehow it came down to you turn one innocent you get your army and you guys told me so I believe you yep yep we're down
with it that's the way of the chucky universe we just if they say it we're like all right we're
going there because we've gone so many places in all the movies so we're with it we don't we don't
we don't ever uh okay after season one who is your favorite living character ooh that's a
good question i mean i got to go with i mean i wanted to directly go to jennifer tilly
but i love fiona so stinking much um she's such
She's just a phenomenal actress.
I love her.
If you choose her as an actress, she's three characters really.
Totally.
She's her. She's Nika.
She's Chucky in Nika's body.
And she's her dad.
Her dad, which we just found out.
And I love that.
So I got to go.
You guys are amazing.
Thank you for telling us.
I got to go with her, I think.
Yeah.
And even though Jennifer Tilly also brings me so much life.
Like, who are you going to miss the most of the dead characters?
Oh.
I was sad to see Lexi's dad go.
the guy who was previously
in the Chucky movie
I know that was the creepy
psychiatrist
and also Kyle
that's a crazy one
Yeah
I
Let's look up some trivia
We haven't done this
Because we don't want to be spoiled
But
Right but now
I feel like we actually can
We have the freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Yeah I'm very
I'm interested to see
You know
I guess where it goes
You know the ending
Is that they're like
We all have each other
We've got each other's
We couldn't even tell our teacher, but the teacher's looking out for them.
They're all kind of orphans except for the blonde girl.
Well, they're all absolute orphans except for the blonde girl.
Yeah, you're right.
Yeah, they are orphans except for the blonde girl.
So I wonder, like, maybe the blonde girl's mom will take them in.
Who knows what's going to happen with the kids.
But maybe the teacher will take them in.
I don't know, but...
Do you want to hear some stuff?
Let's do it.
All right.
The production office has a kill wall where actors would pose pictures of characters.
who had been killed off from the show.
Wow.
I love that.
Okay.
That's fun.
Mother and daughter characters, Lexi Cross, and Mayor.
Michelle Cross, are portrayed by Olivia Allen Lind and Barbara Allen Woods.
In reality, their mother and daughter, which we knew.
In episode two of season one, Mayor Woods mentions Dr. Mixter.
Dr. Mixter was the doctor in Halloween, too.
Oh.
Okay.
Cool fun crossover.
It's a fun fact.
Okay, so the actress playing Nika Chucky in real life is the real life daughter, Brad Doroff, the actor who voices Chuckie.
Yep.
Alex Vincent graduated from Hackensack School, high school in 1999.
Oh.
The actor that plays Andy.
That's funny.
Okay.
Okay.
One of the posters Jake has on the wall features the greasers from the outsiders.
I think I said in the first episode, I was like, is that the outsiders?
I think you might have said that.
Yeah. Jake is the fifth LGBT character in Child's Play series after David, Barb, Jill, and Carlos.
However, Jake is the first LGBT protagonist in the Child's Play series, with the others being side characters.
Yeah, that's true. That's cool. Like that.
There's ones with spoilers. Do you think I should read them? Because we're still, I don't know.
Maybe read one. Okay. Yeah.
Film series and show creator Don Mancini has stated, this will be the final.
showdown between Chucky and his longtime nemesis, Andy Barclay, stating everything from the past
will come together. You later tweeted that if the show is successful, there's a possibility that
more films could be made in the future. Oh, interesting. Hey, that gives us... We can cover those. Yeah,
that would be... Greg can't stop us. We'll make money. That would be great if the show doesn't
really, really well, it keeps going.
If they're already, I'd be interested to see if they're already in pre-production,
possibly for another film.
Hmm.
Well, I wonder if they have another seat, because they did three seasons.
You think that they're done after three seasons?
They're going to do a fourth season.
That's what I'm wondering.
And I'm wondering if, who knows, man?
Just for behind the scenes for you guys, when I chanted, Greg can't stop us,
he poked his head in and looked at us and then closed the door.
Okay, another spoiler.
Because of Barbara Allen Woods, which is Lexi's mom, having a good horror scream, they decided not to kill her off.
Instead, they killed Michael's character, the husband.
What?
That's the only reason?
Why?
That's great.
I mean, I just like her a lot.
I figured it was because she was like, I don't want my daughter on set without me.
Yeah.
Okay.
Wow.
Let's see.
Devin Saw was casting the show indirectly references the music of the franchise.
as two of the franchise composers, Graham Revel, who scored Childs Play 2 and Bride of Chucky,
and his themes for the former acts as bootstrap theme for the show and the franchise as a whole, and Shirley Walker,
and also scored one of Sawah's prior horror outings. Oh, so the two people who scored this
helped score Final Destination. Oh, okay. That's cool. That's interesting. That was a long-winded way of
saying that yeah um what else can i tell you guys chucky's good guy doll voice is now performed by
child actor nick fisher digging over from eden gross the first three films and michel ruff from
curse of chucky wow all the voices sound exactly the same for his voice so that's a good job
they did matching that i agree really really good work hi i'm chucky want to play could i get cast
maybe
for the first part
yes
it's good it's good
you trailed off
but it was you crush
the improv was not good
but the
one of the first negotiations
Don Mancini made
to sci-fi
for the show's
production
was Chuckie's sailor mouth
he insisted that it
was vital enough
to the tone
that sci-fi
actually has it
in writing
that the cast
can drop F-bombs
uncentered
eight to ten times
an episode
hell yeah
and of course
most of them
are taken up
by the pint size slasher, it gets better after the first episode as every previously on
is typically the first one of the episode to set the mood.
I adore that rule.
I love that.
There are so many horror shows and horror films that I think try to not push because
they want to be like PG-13 or they don't want to push it too far.
I like that because it seems more realistic to me to like if you're going to drop an F-bomb and you
really feel like it's needed, then use it. I love that. You imagine seeing somebody murdered in
front of you and not be screaming. Yeah. Not be like, oh, fuck. Right? Right. Crazy. Okay, so those, that's the
trivia. Wow. Man, this just feels. It feels odd to be saying goodbye to it now. We're not saying
goodbye to you guys. No, not at all. Not at all. Chuckie for this for now. For now. And if you
