I did a search for a Chuck topic, and came up empty. I find it hard to believe that a show this awesome doesn't have a thread - please correct me if I'm wrong.

Or am I alone in my love of the Bartowski saga?

It's the only show that I DVR that I don't ever skip through the opening theme song. Something about that Cake tune makes me want to see it. Of course, that's not why I watch it.

I like it because it's like Alias but doesn't take itself seriously. And the acting is top notch, IMHO. Morgan cracks me up every time he's on screen...

I wouldn't call it awesome.. I'm not even sure why I like it, almost stopped half way through S1.. but I guess it's nice. the characters are likeable, though the plotlines are very repetitive.

I think I'd like it more if it wasn't an hour long. I don't know if I'm gonna keep watching it, I've made it through 1/2 the first show of season 2 and haven't done anything about the yellow exclamation point beside it yet so....

i like the show for it's simpleness. it reminds of primetime tv shows in the 80's. it just wants you to believe that chuck and sarah like each other. everything else is fairly straightfoward. there are no twists. just easy laughs here and there and a little escapism.

everything else on tv is so concerned with continuity, deep story lines, etc. and its tough to pull off on tv. LOST is the only show that has really done it and Heroes to a degree.

Chuck appeals to all sorts of people. i like it but rarely think about it after its over.

you don't see too many of these shows out there anymore.

Was it just me, or did Sarah look super HOT in that red dress this week?!?! :naughty: :li:

Unbelievably yummy...

And I know that it's a way to keep us all guessing, but it seems like at least once per episode I find myself saying, "Oh, poor Chuck!" Tugs at my heartstrings! :wink:

Exactly. It's not a show I look forward to every week, but after I watch it I'm glad I did.

Sarah looks super hot in everything.

One moment I enjoyed from this last episode was Casey watching Anna beat up on Michael Strahan at the end and then calling for a background check on her. :D

meh. I still haven't finished the first episode of the season and I don't think I'll bother. There's just nothing there, not worth my time.

Watched all three of this seasons episodes on Monday. Thought they were all pretty good. The one problem I have with this show are the scenes at the buy more that don't involve Chuck being a spy. I just don't care or like those other characters enough. I think they need to cut down on those scenes.

They're better when Big Mike is around.

It's baaaaaacccccccckkkkkkk!

Loved the premiere, and last night's episode was great. I do get the feeling, though, that I'm the only one on the boards that gives a damn!

The nice thing is that they always give us some nice eye candy, every episode!
