Chuck

I searched and couldn't find it. Sorry if i missed it.

I've seen all the episode of the series CHUCK. It is so far my favorite show.
Wanted to ask how you think the show is doing and what you think about it.

I love Chuck.

The early episodes of this season were a bit meh; I loved them, I thought the writing and jokes were on target as always, but the direction the plot was going was just a little murky. The whole "In love with each other, but one mistake and now everything is in ruins" isn't a story-line I buy. The first few episodes had their moments of Chuck and Sarah staring longingly into each others eyes, clearly still in love with each other, but Sarah resisting because she was "so hurt". Really, they should have gotten back together after Chuck got gassed at the wedding, and admitted he became a spy because he loved Sarah and wanted to protect her. When that didn't do it, I just got nervous they were going to extend this betrayal plot forever.

That being said, I still loved every single episode. I just was questioning where they were going with the Chuck/Sarah plot-line.

That question was answered in the new Hannah arc. Kristin Kreuk is absolutely ADORABLE. Her character is perfect for Chuck, and she seems like a real sweetheart (which means the twist will probably be that she's a Ring agent - seeing as she's a guest star and will leave the show at some point) - but anyways, this cleans up that plot-line that I disliked. Now, they may be in love, but they each actually have a reason not to be with each other; Chuck has Hannah, Sarah has Shaw.

Yay someone else who likes it waiting for the new series here in the UK and can't wait. And come on it had Chevy Chase playing a baddie in it awesome

It isn't great television, but very amusing none the less.

But I'm not a big fan of Kreuk, not in Smallville and not in Chuck now either. I much prefer Strawahamoskaovski (I suck at Eastern European names), and it kinda sucked how they were together and then not together and now who the hell still knows.

That's the best part - I personally prefer Kreuk/Hannah, but it's not like Chuck can lose either way.

I bolded that second part because that's exactly what made me be a little meh over the first few episodes. Whenever a show has a love story as part of its major plot, its always frustrating when they finally are going to be together, and then for whatever random reason they can't be together any more.

After 2 ep of Hannah in there, I like her now.
Though i feel sorry for Morgan. Morgan needs someone.

<3 Chuck.

Hannah is definitely my favorite. I personally don't find blondes as attractive as brunettes. Although I felt sort of crushed when chuck broke her heart to go out with blondie. I lost a lot of respect for his character after that.

Better when chuck's writers don't involve themselves too much on the love aspect IMO.

Not since "friends" have I hated a show so much.

I'm surprised this doesn't constitute trolling.

I've only seen the pilot. Wanted to watch the show now just having trouble finding... where to watch... anyways I heard it was on the chopping block and just barely survived. Heard it's shaking going still as far as ratings and whether or not it will be canceled.

It has looked interesting but I only manage to catch an episode or two during the seasons because I always forget when it's on and what channel it's on.

I would watch it just for Strahovski though, so long as she used her damn Aussie accent!

Main character was in alvin and the chip munks squeckal. I never watched the show but i assumed they only recieved limited viewers due to how they upgraded the main character so they could lean towards violence rather then comic relief.

NBC Mondays at 8! I agree about the accent though - I think accents are incredibly sexy. Her character is supposed to be the All-American girl/spy though, so that's why they coached her out of it. If you pay really close attention, you can see her lips move in slightly unnatural ways when she talks (to correct the accent towards plain American English). It can actually be annoying, but I find it easy to ignore because she's so hot.

It's actually a natural progression of the storyline. They did upgrade violence in general though; early seasons have the classic 10-man firefights where no one gets shot, but all the glass objects and windows get shattered, but nowadays they actually have some pretty brutal kills (Buster Bluth comes to mind).

I'm surprised this doesn't constitute trolling.

I actually can buy what he's saying, even though I personally love the show. Some of the characters could be grating, a lot of the characters are very one-dimensional, and the central love-story plotline became really muddled and frustrating this season.

Yeah, but he simply stated an inflammatory statement with no reasoning behind it. That is what I would call trolling. I recognize that someone could feel that way but I want to know why at least.

because what makes a show good...decent acting, writing...y'know, pretty basic stuff...that show totally fails at.

and that's hardly trolling.

I don't have NBC, I live in Central Asia .

Anyways, it sounds like you're paying very close attention to her mouth lol.

I actually didn't at first, it was my mom who pointed it out to me. And now, if I'm not careful, I'll zero in on it, and even though I really don't think its terribly exaggerated or anything, it'll become really obvious to me.

I couldn't care less though, she's sexiness. Gotta love the gratuitous underwear scenes as she straps knives to her legs.

It'd be nice if you didn't make baseless attacks. When you don't explain your reasoning it sounds like simple trolling.

ummmm, I gave reasons I didn't like it.

Ok I'm about four or five episodes in now and I'm in love with Yvonne Strahovski.
