Syfy Cancels ‘Reginald the Vampire’ After Two Seasons; Chucky’s Fate Still Uncertain

Date:

Key Takeaways:
– Syfy has pulled the plug on the horror-comedy series ‘Reginald the Vampire’ after only two seasons.
– The status of another Syfy/USA Network show, Chucky, hangs in the balance.
– Actor Jacob Batalon, renowned for his role as Ned in the Spider-Man series, played the lead role in ‘Reginald the Vampire’.
– The series ‘Resident Alien’ is transferring from Syfy to the USA Network for its fourth season.

Syfy Bids Adieu to Reginald

After an enthralling run of two seasons, ‘Reginald the Vampire’ has met its premature end. For fans hooked to the unlikely hero Reginald Baskin, portrayed by Jacob Batalon, this comes as disappointing news. Going by Deadline’s report, Syfy has officially cancelled the horror-comedy series.

Chucky’s Future Hangs in the Balance

While ‘Reginald the Vampire’ fans deal with the show’s cancellation, fans of Chucky are also biting their nails. The TV series, aired on both Syfy and the USA Network, has an uncertain future. Deadline described the situation saying, “The fate of both Reginald the Vampire and Chucky had been pending, and Chucky is still TBD.”

Resident Alien Moves to the USA Network

Meanwhile, ‘Resident Alien’, another popular series on Syfy, will soon call the USA Network home. The series will make the switch for its upcoming fourth season.

A Closer Look at ‘Reginald the Vampire’

Starring Jacob Batalon, known for his role as Peter Parker’s best friend Ned in the Spider-Man movies, ‘Reginald the Vampire’ presented a unique and unconventional vampire story. The series revolved around the main character, Reginald Baskin, a regular guy who stumbles into a world filled with attractive, fit vampires.

The second season was particularly engaging, with Reginald navigating a complex web of relationships to maintain his newfound existence. While not the typical handsome vampire archetype, Reginald’s charm lies in his unique persona and unexpected powers which he discovers along the way.

In the series, Batalon was joined by Mandela Van Peebles (Mayor of Kingstown), Em Haine (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina), and Savannah Basley (SurrealEstate). Harley Peyton served as the showrunner and executive producer for the series, penning the screenplay along the way.

The engaging show was based on Johnny B. Truant’s Fat Vampire series of novels and produced by Cineflix Studios, Great Pacific Media Inc., December Films, and Modern Story Company.

Wrap It Up

Reginald’s time as a vampire has, unfortunately, come to an end. It may be a loss for fans of Syfy’s unique take on the vampire genre, but the network is sure to continue delivering more interesting shows in the future. However, the fate of ‘Chucky’ is yet to be decided – a shred of hope for fans of another unconventional horror series. In the transition, ‘Resident Alien’ fans have something to look forward to as the show moves to the USA Network for its fourth season.
