After three thrilling seasons, Syfy and USA Network have decided not to renew the horror-comedy series Chucky for a fourth season.

Don Mancini, the creator of the show, expressed his heartfelt gratitude and disappointment, "I'm heartbroken over the news that 'Chucky' won't be coming back for a fourth season, but am so grateful for the killer three years we did have."

Mancini extended his appreciation to the cast, crew, and loyal fans, "I'd like to thank UCP/SYFY/Peacock/Eat the Cat, our awesome cast and Toronto-based crew (the best in the business), and finally, to our amazing fans, a big bloody hug. Your incredible #RenewChucky campaign really warmed Chucky's cold heart."

Hinting at the possibility of Chucky's return, Mancini added, "Chucky will return! He ALWAYS comes back."

Chucky followed the terrifying killer doll's trail of chaos and horror in a suburban town, exposing the dark secrets and hypocrisies of its residents.

The show boasted a talented cast, including Zackary Arthur, Bjorgvin Arnarson, Alyvia Alyn Lind, Brad Dourif, Devon Sawa, and Jennifer Tilly.

The executive producers behind the series were Mancini, Nick Antosca, Alex Hedlund, David Kirschner, and Jeff Renfoe.

Daniel Fienberg, The Hollywood Reporter's chief TV critic, praised the show's blend of humour and horror, "The violence is bloody but not gory. I've always found the franchise more funny than scary, and that continues here."
