I thought it was cute, but not sure it's a keeper for me. The postives: Chuck and the guy who plays him; Adam Baldwin, obviously, and the best thing I've seen him in on tv since Angel The negatives: The female lead (forget her name) is NO!!!! Sydney Bristow or Jennifer Garner...just doesn't work for me Also, the show was cute, but not nearly as funny or entertaining as I hoped. Maybe it'll grow on me more with further eps. (assuming they'll air) *********************************************** "They talk about me in the chatty rooms?"--Angel "I'm 1120 years old.

I had seen it previously, via the free Amazon download, and I felt the same way. It was good enough that I'll watch again. Can't say the same for Bionic Woman. I like Captain Awesome. However, it was nowhere near as amazing as the futon critic makes it out to be. And I think the premise is highly suspect, but that's ok. Select to view spoiler: The climax is completely ludicrous; why is a laptop that's controlling a bomb connected to the internet anyway?

Maybe it has a wireless internet card. And they are in a hotel/conference center so there is a network present. And come on how funny is it that a terrorist plot was stopped with porn.

BROWNCOAT1 May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

I watched and it was fairly good. Not great, but entertaining. I'm going to give it a few more episodes to see how it goes. __________________________________________ Holding the line since December '02!

Quote: Anyway, as someone else said if you suspend belief it's a fun show. It's just that Joss has a way of making the most far-fetched ideas seem plausible. No argument there from me either. Plus, it reminds me more of Alias anyway. Alias was EXTREMELY far-fetched, even for the die-hard fans. One of it's most annoying "quirks" was someone faking their death every other week. So many times a season and it stopped being compelling (I kept watching mainly because I genuinely enjoyed the characters and the "dysfunctional family" themes)...then it happened again in the final season and it tore me up. My point being, even the most ridiculous things can sometimes turn out to unexpectedly resonate (right word?). Don't know if Chuck will be that way, it's a wait-and-see kind of thing for me too. *********************************************** Joss is like a present, he's like a gift as far as I'm concerned.--Ron Glass "They talk about me in the chatty rooms?"--Angel "I'm 1120 years old.

Well I mentioned on both the Hero threads how much I enjoyed it and look forward to having it be a lead in to Heroes. Yes it was silly and stupid and a lot of things seemed far fetched (mainly to me the way the NSA and CIA agents fought each other so brutally. Same side remember) but it was a great show and I found myself laughing (silly nerdy sidekick is so silly) and enjoying myself. Even though I HATED Adam's hair. What was he thinking? too-much-hair.......... And there was a brief moment that felt Joss-like in the beggining of the show when Bryce the rogue agent nearly get's away and suddenly he's shot, then you hear Adam say in a calm voice "Don't move." Most say that BEFORE shooting someone, he did it after. Had a Mal quality to it. And some of the dialogue I found quite witty. I'm looking forward to Mondays now. I just have to find the episodes of Eureka S2 to cath up and I'll be set. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ ~Peter*Peter*Power>~re-peater~ HEROES IS MY CRACK! ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
