I was waiting for a mention of Vera, but didn't hear one. Was there one there and I missed it?

This is going to be a GREAT season!!

I just hope the ratings are good!

Just an obsession.

Was it just my lame cable company, or did the sound seem not to be in sync with the picture by a little bit? A conspiracy to get us to buy the next season on DVD? I wuz gonna do that anyhow!
I miss Anna. Effing Benihanna chef.

I have straight broadcast TV and the sound was good. But that is not typical. Since they went digital there have been bad days. Glad today was not one of them.

Sorry, I will not download a plug-in.

So. To start a discussion here... is CHUCK a lefty or righty tale? HMMM? Does the show side with either? Or does it present the pros & cons of both poles as extremes that cannot fully solve a problem independently?

Thoughts?

Didn't know YouTube was a plug in, if my post is to what you're referring. Point being, that was the song playing on the radio, when Emmett checked out.

Wilson Phillips "Hold On"

http://www.youtube. com/watch?v=L2L9IKVe9LA

The Lefty or Righty tale part ? I dunno, I just like how Chuck /Intersect 2.0 is against the use of guns

Just like Buffy

Just like River

Which makes me think..... Chuck vs River, who'd win ? O.K., maybe not so much a contest, until Chuck can flash combat tactics on demand. Until then, he'd likely still get beat up by a 90 lb girl ( or a 90 yr old man )

Think about it, both are unwilling products of covert,Gov't programs, both are keepers of vast amounts of high level secrets....

I'm just sayin'.

I was lucky enough to watch season 2 when it originally aired. The wife bought season 2 then did a Chuck marathon just prier to the 2 Hour Sunday premier.

I began watching Chuck out of a sense of loyalty to Adam Baldwin (I do that with many of the FF actors) and really got into it. It is a very fun show and the season 3, 2 hour premier aired right after Serenity was shown on the Scy/Fy channel Sunday night.

Monday night there will be a new Chuck and a new Castle so I’m happy for it all. Sure wish Jewel, Summer, Gina, Alan and Morena could make guest appearances on either show. I think many browncoats are following ABC and NBC television shows because they are employing our BDHs.

Now for a small Chuck spoiler from last night,

Select to view spoiler:

I can’t believe they killed Milbarge that way. Holy crap! His character was a little annoying but Geezzzz….. I thought he’d be around to give our BCH, (Big Chuck Hero) hell all season. Guess not.

IMDb has been know to be incorrect in the past, and I think this is another indication of it. The cast information was probably just carried over from the previous season. I do hope Anna will be back, but I won't be surprised if she's missing all year. They have her listed for the second episode that aired last night and we know she did not appear and she was also missing from the opening credits. Perhaps one of the budget concessions they had to make for renewal.

"These were the best numbers since last year’s 3D episode the Monday after last year’s Super Bowl. Definitely a strong premiere for a scripted show by this year’s standards on NBC.

Now of course, the focus shifts to how much of those #s Chuck can hold on to tonight."

I think I missed more than 1 meeting.

Select to view spoiler:

First, I last season ended w/ the Awesome's wedding, so why did it seem like, as they were unpacking, it's been a long time ? I got that it's been 8+ years since they first MET, but ..anyways, I got a bit confused on that. The recap made it seem like they had just gotten married, but there's been a whole off season thingy to take into account.

Also, and this is sorta key....exactly when did Awesome find out that Chuck was w/ the CIA ? Kinda changes the landscape, a bit.

I take it that's like a little in-joke that it's been a while since new eps aired.

Near the end of the 2nd season, Chuck took him into his confidence in order to cut corners on lying to him. Hard to explain how Casey's place was so hi-tech with bars sliding down & stuff. Possibly you missed that ep?

Very possible I missed that ep, yes. Awesome, though proficient in many areas, doesn't seem to be the sort who can keep such a secret of this magnitude very well. Especially from the likes of Chuck's beautiful and brilliant sister.

This was a GREAT ep, but...

No wackyness at the Buy More? Hopefully next week.

NOOOO! Not Awesome! (Why does this feel familar?) Wait, he's not dead, just kidnapped. Whoops.

That was too short of a sharp shock. I don't think the preview for next week should have spoiled that Captain Awesome survived.

I was ready to start an angry letter writing campaign if they had killed off Awesome. I usually don't watch the next ep preview but I'm glad I did this time.

As for the time lapse, this is happening approximately six months after the Season Two finale, which is when Ellie and Awesome got married. Their move didn't begin until the second episode that aired last night. They've moved to another apartment in the same complex and supposedly Morgan is rooming with Chuck now in their old apartment, although we did not see Morgan tonight.

Chuck revealed the secret to Awesome in the next to last episode last season, after Awesome broke into Casey's apartment which set off alarms and trapped him inside.
