As much as I enjoy Chuck, I don't really see Zachary Levi as Superman. Although I can understand if you'd take hints with people from both Superman Returns and Smallville having cameos.

On the off chance that anyone hasn't seen the season finale yet... (Spoilers below!)

Select to view spoiler:


I don't know about y'all, but I was damned glad to see Chuck and Sarah finally together and happy. If it *IS* the end - and I have absolutely no info that it is - at least they didn't leave us hanging on that note.

'Course, if the show DOES get picked up, that might make things a bit tougher...




What if NBC doesn't decide to renew Chuck? Well, we have options. USA network, they'd *LOVE* to have a show like Chuck - it would fit right in with the Burn Notice/White Collar vibe - semi-nerdy/spy-crime-fighting shows with with and humor. SyFy wouldn't know what to do with themselves if they snagged Chuck. And they're all affiliated to some degree with NBC, so it still keeps it "in the family", so to speak.

I'm concerned about Chuck, but I'm not *worried*. Not yet, anyway. Subway helped a bunch. Hell, I wish they could get BestBuy in on the action, since it's so clear that BuyMore IS BestBuy - and that's not a slam on BestBuy, either! I shop there, and it IS that nerdy. That's WHY I shop there. When you want the best electronics, ask the nerd herd!

FYI that wasn't the season finale. Chuck returns next week.

dewrastler is right, still 6 eps left, picked up half way though, so they'd already planned the season to stop at this point, hence the perfect ending, in case they didn't get picked up again (I guess?).

But yeah, 6 episodes left of this season, so it'll be interesting to see how they structure it.

Well, shoot! That IS awesome news.

After watching the ep, I figured it was the finale, went to IMDB to check if it was scheduled for the next week, saw no info on any further episodes, so took that as confirmation.

I'm definitely glad I was wrong on that one! :)

I wasn't sure how I'd like Chuck this season, what with him being all "super spy" and all, and not seeming like he'd really need Sarah or Casey around any more, but they've done a wonderful job of writing the show, keeping it silly as ever, while still making it, well, semi-believable at least, and keeping Chuck bumbling and desperately in need of his team.

Had that been the series finale, I would have been sad, of course, but I'd have also walked away feeling very glad for having taken that ride, and feeling good about where and how it ended. Fortunately, I don't have to worry about that right now! :)

Thanks, De and Rich - you guys just started off my day on an up note!

It did seem like a final episode with everything pretty much coming full circle - Chuck and Sarah finally being together, Casey being reinstated, the Ring brought to justice, etc. But I'm curious to see how they fit Morgan in with the spy group. He doesn't have any training nor does he have an intersect to move him along even faster so that will be interesting to know how he fits in.

Looking forward to the six episodes coming up. I am hoping that they can continue the Chuck / Sarah relationship and keep the same feel and fun of the episodes and not go all Moonlighting on us.

It's been sixteen days since that episode aired, so you got no one else but yourself to blame for spoilers.
