“
This short parody of the beloved Dahl story raises many points about Charlie’s future happiness that really needed some clarification. While this has very fun, clever dialogue, it made me think a little deeper about how I bought into the “pure imagination” fantasy of a carefree existence for Charlie, now Chuck. Couldn’t we predict some unhappiness when the original owner of the factory was willing to give it away for free? A great “nothing is free” lesson for us all. Well done, Steven! ”

We totally believe it. This is a very real friendship that could've come from this, it's so funny but also completely believable. Great parody of a classic that fans will adore! ”
