Is anyone else totally digging this show? Perfect blend of comedy, *light* drama, and storytelling.

Captain Awesome is my favorite character

i am with you on that. I dont care about that angle so much. They will eventually get together. Let them play maybe maybe not with them, give me funny goofy spy situations, give me more buy moore funny and its all good.

1st ep was a little underwhelming for me. Hope the 2nd steps it up.

I don't know about you buys but when Sarah and the other spy were getting ready.....it moved.

Thought that was good for what it was. The shows tonight were basically setup for the rest of the season - establishing Chuck's limitations, explaining the status between Chuck and Sarah and (re-)introducing the new bad guys, the ring.

Every review I'd read said eps 3-5 were when the new season really kicked into gear, so we'll see.

Biggest disappointment for me was the lack of Julia Ling. aka Anna Wu.

keg in kc · 01-11-2010, 01:03 AM

I almost forgot to mention the biggest setup of all, that we have completely shifted the show away from the season 1 and 2 roots of Chuck wanting to be normal, to the Chuck teased in the season 2 finale who wants to be a spy. And also still wants the girl.

Which is a pretty big fundamental shift in the show...

My guess is when the show finally does end, the last scene will be the two of them on a beach somewhere, just like the end of Alias...

She's off the show due to budget cuts, but i hear she will be back for the back 6 they ordered so we will see. They couldnt get rid of Jeff or Lester. She was really the odd person out. I rather have Big Mike over her for comedy value.

Out of 10, I'd say first one rated a 8.5 and the second a 9.5. Neither had the number of lol moments I grew accustomed to but they were really solid episodes.

Like keg said, it set up everything. Though I disagree that Ling is missed. And Emmitt....poor Emmitt.

keg in kc · 01-11-2010, 11:33 AM

What can I say, I have a thing for asian chicks. She could co-star as a mannequin for 5 seconds a week and I'd be happy.

kcxiv · 01-11-2010, 12:52 PM

Well Chuck did a 3.0 in the ratings which is good for a NBC tv show.

Well, lastnight it went up against some big guns as well in the Simpson's which had like 20 million viewers and Desperate housewives which had something like 12 and still did fairly well.

8pm on Monday is a better slot then the 9pm on Monday. WHo really wants to go up agaisnt 24 and Two and a half Men and The Big Bang THeory, them 2 shows pull in crazy numbers every week. Rather go against House and HIMYM and Rules of Engagement then the other 3 shows.

BTW, that 3.0 that Chuck did is NBC's highest Rated Scripted show this season.
