Season 1 of the machinima web series Red vs. Blue: The Blood Gulch Chronicles first aired on April 1, 2003. The season follows the accounts of the Red Team; which consists of: the leader, Sarge; the lazy Grif; the so called "kiss ass" Simmons; and the semi-idiotic but free-spirited Donut; and the accounts of the Blue Team; which consists of: the de facto leader, Church; the self proclaimed ladies' man, Tucker; the clueless and ignorant Caboose; and the Freelancer Tex who is often associated with the Blue Team. It is the first full season of Red vs. Blue.
Synopsis
The first season of of the action-comedy series Red vs. Blue and part of the The Blood Gulch Chronicles. A gruff sergeant. An unlucky ghost. A psychotic mercenary. A sarcastic slacker.
