Chucky season 3 has been split in two parts with four episodes in each, making a total of eight. If you are waiting for part 2, you will have to wait a while. On October 25, Chucky season 3 episode 4, titled «Dressed to Kill,» aired on Syfy and USA Network. You can catch it on Peacock if you missed it. The fourth episode had a cliffhanger, leaving fans eager for episode 5. Normally, when a season is divided into parts, there's a wait of six to eight months. But for Chucky, it's going to be longer. Chucky season 3 episode 5 might not come until late 2024. If the second part was ready, it could have premiered in early 2024, maybe in March or April. However, the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strikes have halted things. Filming for episodes 5-8 hasn't even started yet. The strikes need to end first, and there's no clear end date in sight. Even if a deal is reached soon, filming will still take months. After that, there's post-production and editing. Considering all this, Chucky season 3 episode 5 probably won't be out until the end of 2024. It might align with an October release to match the show's theme.
