Chuck (NBC)

[iamlegend]

So where do all the other agents in the buymore go when crap goes down At the buymore? I mean they should have had agents taking down some of the rioters at the end, where were the agents for thejail cell and roof action? Or did I miss something and all except Stacey Kiebler character were away on missions?

After watching three episodes... I think something got left out (maybe on the cutting room floor) that would have cleared that up.

The first two eps had an almost exclusively spy staff at the Buy More. Now that they've been shipped out it looks like the series is going to just have our regulars (Chuck, Casey, Morgan) at the Buy More, plus that episode's Greta.

The issue is that they don't seem to have explained this within the confines of the show... Near as I can tell, this week's Greta was the first one to be named (Morgan mentioned it). He even says "the new Greta" or something along those lines... when we've never actually been introduced to Greta?

 

[wiegeabo]

We were introduced to Munn's Greta by name, and I think they briefly mentioned the one guy was Greta last week, but I'm not sure about that.

I really wish people would stop letting professional wrestlers try to act.

Big Mike just tazered Austin!

That'll upset good Ole Jim Ross.

*Jim Ross* Big Mike just tasered Austin! The rattlesnake is down! Big Mike pulled out a damn taser out of no where and just tased the living hell out of Austin

The whole ring thing was done before in Friends. I thought Chuck and Sarah were at a good place with their relationship? This just feels like forced drama.

The Robert Englund Eppy of Chuck is Halloween themed!

Now somewhat bad news...but somewhat good as well. Chuck was dead last in total viewers on NBC Monday night, but 2nd in 18-49.

1.9/5 with 5.37 - CHUCK
2.4/6 with 7.46 - THE EVENT
1.7/5 with 5.83 CHASE

Two weeks in a row Chuck has done round 5.3 million on Monday. The Event and Chase however keep dropping.

I don't watch the Event, but I think NBC should give it a season 2.

While I find this unlikely did Jeff & Lester somehow find & reprogram the CIA & NSA Computers there ? The fact that it took Casey giving that Computer a death threat to listen to him that is very Jeff & Lester like

It's much better than what we've had the past two seasons, with random love interests and preposterous ways to keep them apart.

What they're doing this year is actually have Chuck and Sarah go through legitimate real world growing pains... but beefed up by the fact that they're anything but normal people. I think it works, and it's the next logical step in the development of both their characters and their relationship.

Besides, it's fun to see Levi and Strahovski (who have awesome chemistry on screen) get to play out stuff like this rather than sad puppy dog eyes or uber-angst.

I'll agree that I didn't really get where they were going with that joke. It seemed to kind of fall flat.

Overall a good episode but some things like where did the CIA/NSA staff go? I was expecting them to subdue all the nerd rioters.

I cannot express how much I HATE Jeff and Lester. They are just creepy a-holes and not funny. Just annoying to see them on the screen.

It was strange to see Chuck get beaten by one guy when he was able to take out like 12 Russians, with weapons, in a previous episode.

The legs this seasons are off the hook good.

Well we have to remember that Hugo Panzer (Steve Austin) is considered the world's foremost close quarter combatant. And they were dueling in the Nerd Herd cage, which is as about as close quarters as you can get.

Plus, he's the size of a small tank, and the move he used to finish Chuck made liberal use of the size advantage.

The Intersect can only do so much.

I am such a nerd...

In season 2, it is confirmed die hard and chuck are same universe..but last night it is stated Chuck has seen die hard movie? Good god, the writers suck.

 

[Sawyer]

Just because Reginald Veljohnson played a character with the same name doesn't mean it's the same universe.

 

[Neverless]

Just like how it mentioned in episode 2 s1 that flight 815 crashed int he south pacific. doesn't mean its in the same universe as lost.

its merely nerd references ftw.

That makes no since at all. I actually like CHUCK a bit less than. Still love the show, but this...just bums me out.

They obviously did a biographical film of McClane's adventure.

It's not supposed to make sense. It's a meta reference. Just like how Nathan Fillion's character in Castle dressed as his Firefly character for Halloween.

Well, then clearly Rick Castle is an ancestor to Malcolm Reynolds.

 

[enterthemadness]

So basically, CHUCK could have had Bruce Willis on the show as a character called John McClane....and then later on mention a movie called Die Hard...ugh.

On this note, if Bruce is on Chuck (like if a season 5 happens) and his name is John McClane, I guess somebody at the nerd herd would mention the Die Hard movies...

This may be bad considering how serious I take my tv shows but I think you're taking this one instance too serously.

sorry if I am thinking about a plot hole or bad writing or whatever about a tv show.

 

[wiegeabo]

It's not a plothole. It's a silly meta reference designed to make fans laugh and point.

Like how at the Castle panel at Con, they showed a video where Castle said that Nathan Fillion owes him 50 bucks because he got a better score on Angry Birds

It's not a plot hole or bad writing. Hell, it has nothing to do with the plot at all - their Die Hard references (whether it's character names or assorted ramblings) are meant to be throwaway jokes at best. They don't tie into the show's mythos or universe at all.

Well...I guess someone should update imdb.com and wiki and tell the guys at IGN.com then...and eonline.com...

You better get on that then. :P
