I really enjoyed last night's episode! I was greatly amused at watching Chuck try to teach Casey the store policies, etc. Then the two agents working to convince Chuck that the other one was dangerous.

The part where they followed the wrong beacon and found Morgan at Buy More. So many funny moments in this show!

I'm hooked. Now that I've said that, I'll be paranoid about it getting canceled! Of course, this show has one thing going for it -- it's NOT on F*x!!!

He is! Can we get a group hug?

Haven't seen the second ep, but the first was good enough to tape the second one. I agree with most sentiments here.

It's good, not great, but worth tuning into again.

Anyone notice Adam's character has another "girl's name"?

So, yeah, parts of it were contrived, but who can't love a series with so many well-played nerd jokes and a *ninja* in the first ep?! When I first heard the premise, I thought it would be totally stupid, and the premise still is a bit, but the actual episodes crack me up. I thought it would be a drama, but it is so totally comedy without being sitcom stupid.

I appreciate the most that they manage to convey nerd life without overtly criticizing or making fun of it - just showing what is. Case point - the comment about ninja revenge.

Absolutely *loved* Casey's (Adam Baldwin's) entrance in the first ep... and the second ep. I think Adam Baldwin is pretty good at melting into roles, so stop looking for Jayne! He's Casey now!

Captain Awesome is indeed awesome. Chuck's "let's do this" line in ep 2 is so well-delivered, I'm still laughing.

Yep... I'm a Chuck fan!

Whole family's hooked, even on our crap piece TV that goes squiggly when it's mostly dark colors, we still watch and laugh. It's not a real thinker, just fun. Give the actors a few episodes to get into it, and it's gonna be a good fun show to watch!

Not as funny as I was hoping but it has potential.

Oh, Mistressahara, you beat me to it! I was all ready to post about how Jayne got almost got beat up by a 90-pound girl again! 'Cause that's never gonna get old.

I loved the line, "I never kid about mini-quiches." (Or something like that.) I think Adam is having fun with this show, as are the others. So far, I'm hooked! We'll see if they can keep it up.

Liked the rhetorical line in the helicopter:

"Who's flying this thing?"

Now where have I heard that before?

Definitely a lot of potential in the show but I think they should establish some definite big bad or end goal for them to be working towards soon.

Did you guys catch Chuck's brain dump when he says, "Oceanic flight 815 was actually shot down by......"

My husband was screaming at the television. "By who? Who shot them down?!"
Seems he's having a little LOST withdrawal.

Anyone seen any interviews with Adam since Chuck started? I'd love to hear his 2 cents about the show. Maybe at the upcoming cons.

The Lost board where I hang out occasionally is having a field day with this one.
