Season 1

In this introductory episode, Chainsaw Sally becomes the boss of the local library. Poe (an obvious homage to Edgar Allen Poe), her new, teenage employee, and her crazy brother Ruby are also introduced. This episode shows the beginnings of the audio issues that will remain throughout the season.

Cowboy, a detective of sorts, makes his way to Porterville, on the lookout for a murderer. We also get to see Ruby and Sally’s relationship on a more intimate level.

Introduces Gretta Morehead, but mostly focuses in on the relationship between Poe and Sally. Some of the bullies that pick on Po are introduced. This episode pays homage to cult classic Carrie (by Stephen King), hence the title. Contains one of the better performances to this point in the series from the main Po bully named Tiff (Sam Wiitala).

One of Poe’s bullies finds out why she shouldn’t mess with Poe: because when you mess with Poe, you’re messing with Chainsaw Sally. “What Ever Bugs Ya” is one of the better episodes in terms of storyline, and this is where the plot starts to get interesting.

Chainsaw Sally chases Poe’s other bully, Tiff. A wrench is thrown into Sally’s plans for catching Tiff when Cowboy comes around, still trying to solve a murder case with the help of Gretta Morehead.

Chainsaw Sally makes Poe’s day the best yet. It also goes over the origin of Miss Busy Bee, Sally’s apparent sex kitten/slave.

Tiff is back, and she hears Sally’s message – “don’t mess with my friends” – loud and clear. Also, Cowboy is getting closer to Chainsaw Sally.

Poe thinks she has a stalker; a prima donna who consistently parks in handicap spots gets taught a lesson courtesy of Chainsaw Sally. This episode pays an excellent homage to Predator.

Picking up exactly where “Kill Jill” left off, Sally is woken by Ruby, announcing that there are lights coming through the woods. Later, Sally goes on a date on Halloween night. Also, a Michael Myers vs. Leatherface debate.

This episode reveals some back-story on Sally and Poe, as Cowboy and Gretta get closer to catching their murderer.

Poe and her two friends decide to hold a séance in a house in Porterville that was the site of a vicious murder, and everything comes to a head between Cowboy, Gretta, Sally, Ruby, and Poe. This is a fitting-but-predictable (and less than thrilling) end to season one, and leaves the door open for season two to take interesting turns.
