TV: Chuck





GENRE:
Action/Comedy

DAY&TIME: Monday 8pm

NETWORK: NBC

SEASON: Three

STARRING: Zachary Levi (Less Than Perfect),

Yvonne Strahovski (newcomer) Adam Baldwin (Firefly)

SHOW RUNNERS: Chris Fedak (newcomer)

& Josh Schwartz (The OC, Gossip Girl)

PLOT: Computer geek has his brain filled with government secrets and now must hide his secret identity as a spy from family and friends.

GENERAL THOUGHTS: This show is just really fun. We know the main characters will survive but that’s okay. Lots of laugh + spy action = good times.

FIVE WAYS CHUCK HAS IMPROVED:

1 Giving Chuck enhanced spy abilities is pretty cool. Even cooler when it doesn’t always work and he has to fumble out of the situation.

2 Love having Awesome in on the secret. Even better seeing how bad he is at the spy stuff. Especially the lying.

3 Having Casey stick up for Chuck a little more has been a nice change of pace.

4 Like the new love interests. Hope they stay so we can keep Chuck and Sarah apart for a little while longer.

5 The Ring has been a pretty good evil organization for Chuck to infiltrate. Although I would like to see a bit more mythology developed.

UPCOMING REVIEWS: Shutter Island, Damages
