Default Chuck Season 2

Have been somewhat of a light fan towards this show for most of it's first season but I have to say that what the show has managed to produce in season 2 has been absolute gold. The mix of comedy, romance, and action along with one of the best musical soundstracks on tv is making me pray this show doesen't get cancelled.

Any other Chuck fans on CP?

Yeah I enjoy it - the only poor episode this season was the 3-D one. Seems like whenever a show tries a gimmick like that they ignore the other parts of the show (like the writing).

I do think that Chuck is too innocent still for a guy that has seen everything he has seen. I'm not asking him to be turned into a slick super-spy but he should show that he has learned not to trust everyone, etc.

But overall its a great show.

Yeah, I love Chuck. It's almost the highlight of my Monday (How I Met your Mother being the highlight)

Last night's EP was particularly good with the plot for Sarah and Chuck finally moving forward. Uncle bernie was awesome too. lol.

The amount of 90 refrences the show pulls off is hilarious!

I agree on Chuck being a little innocent at times but season 2 I think has done a good job at showing how when Chuck wants to he can def. man up

I love the show too. Outside of Lost, I can't think of another show on network that I'm enjoying as much as this right now. The casting on the show is perfect.

Chuck is my favourite show on TV right now, for much of the reasons explained above - it's just flat out entertaining. I've heard rumours that it will be cancelled but I hope it stays on the air for another season.

I'm definitely looking forward to seeing what happens in the last two episodes of the season.

one of my favorites too. it will probably be canceled this year tho, only reason it survived last year was due to the strike and therefore no new shows to replace it.

yeah, from the looks of it, it looks like they're going to wrap up the show this season. The plot has been moving light speed this year compared to last season.

great show, but its most likely going to be cancelled from all the reports i've read, the CW has apparently some interest in picking it up, but we'll see.

I rented the first season and found it to be kinda okay. If I ever turned off an episode half way through, I wouldn't care. Pretty mediocre programming if you ask me. Maybe season two was better, I wouldn't know.

Does it mean I'm gay if I think Sarah is cute?

I think it just means that you aren't blind.

The show is better when the Blonde walks around in her lingerie

Love that show.

Seriously? ugh. That's the only episode I've seen! I couldn't believe how lame it was, so I've steered well clear of the show since.

Nice to finally know that the show is generally much better, especially since some friends were telling me how much they enjoyed it. I thought they were nuts, based on that episode... now I can respect them again.

Would it make the show better if they replaced the CIA and NSA with the secret agents of the Vatican and Chuck was a born again Christian?

I do love Chuck... and I love Sarah even more...

This has been an amazing series and like was said only one episode was bunk (the 3-D one) There are all sorts of online petitions to keep it going, and lord knows I've signed about 20 of em. Easily the best show on TV right now, followed closely by How I met your Mother and Heroes (hey it's been getting really good again this last couple episodes)
