I expect a ton from this episode and all the buzz it's been getting.
Also on at 6pm on HD NBC I believe.

Well, it's the "finale" before NBC ordered another 6 shows. So after this week's episode, it'll be season 3.1 for 6 episodes.

There is a 3 week break till the next episode so it does act as a small Season finale. Chuck has been really strong for the last 4-5 episodes and with how much buzz this one is getting, I'm really excited for tonight

Sounds like the entire Chuck Cast mines StraHotski were at Wondercon yesterday and they killed it is as usual. Some of the cast interviews they've done have been hilarious and I geuss they explained a ton about the rest of the season, but I'm waiting to watch it till after tonights episode as I geuss it's full of spoilers for tonights episode. Sounds like this is going to be a game-changer tonight

It's a crime against humanity if they don't bring this show back

Great episode tonight. It would have worked nicely as a season/series finale. The next 6 should be interesting. Hopefully NBC gives it another year.

Having only watched it once things I liked
Morgan Grimes. Character has grown on me a ton this year, he's gone from being an annoying nuisance to a loveable and intelligent character. He was great in the episode.

The humour that makes me realize why I love this show. The show never takes itself to serious cough *Lost* cough. Kernel Sanders, "thanks for the tank", and Shaw being able to guess that Chuck had brought Casey just by the gun fire. Also loved Chuck in his underwear playing guitar hero and drinking scotch. Not to mention Morgans interaction with the General.

Really enjoyed the Casey/Chuck seen on the plane. Casey telling Chuck he was smart and talented before the intersect and everything else. A touching scene.

Had to think Chuck was going to lie to Sarah about shooting and killing Shaw at the end. Glad the show didn't go that way. Also kept expecting the last scene to be of Shaw coming out of the water or plotting his revenge, but glad they went out on the Chuck/Sarah high.

At the end of the day, the main reason I keep coming back to this show and think it's still on the air, is the amazing chemistry between Levi and Strahotski. The two just seem to nail the serious scenes together.

With the reaction to his character by most of Chuck's fan base, I'd say a lot of people are. But I doubt he's dead, ala Brice Larkin.

True, at least he's presumably off the show for the next while. I thought I read his guest spot was 8 episodes or something, so I think he's done for now. Also, glad to see Casey back on the team.

Initially he was only suppose to be there for 8 episodes but reports have him staying for more, along with on set reports. I don't think we'll see him for a little bit though and definitely with much less on screen time.

The most positive news I've had to report on a Tuesday after a Chuck episode. Chuck stayed constant with a 2.1 rating, and also the highest it's had in the last 3 weeks. Also tied 24 in the last half hour which is a big accomplishment. Also it should be noted that on the West Coast when Chuck aired, the Butler/Duke game was at it's peak.

Hopefully a lot of the crazy shippers Chuck/Sarah fans will come back and the show can really build momentum advertising this episode (the strongest of the season) over the next 3 weeks.

Things to look forward to when Chuck returns:

Call me a softy but I'm looking forward to seeing Chuck/Sarah as a couple. Mostly based on the chemistry between the actors.

Some amazing guest star appearances. Scott Bakula, who did an amazing job playing Chucks dad last season. Christopher Lloyd from back to the future! Fred Willard, who I can't wait to see, and the return of Anna Woo.

Personally while I think this season had its flaws, it's pretty AWESOME to get an episode like last nights, which would've acted as a season finale. Then 6 more episodes only 3 weeks later!

If Shaw does come back i could see him being the new leader of The Ring.
Nice easy segway into that, plus his screen time would probably be limited. Didnt like the character so that is what i am hoping for at least.
