Frankly, I think trying to capitalize on the 3D commercials from the SuperBowl was a lame idea. Or maybe it was just the 3D that was lame. The glasses made my eyes go so wonky I went without them, fighting the color offset/blurriness instead. It didn’t look like I missed much, with [...]
This episode was the very best of the season. I’d even tentatively say it was the best of the series so far.
And no meaningful person-from-the-past plot! Bonus!
This week’s episode was great for a few reasons:
1. It pulled everyone together. Almost the entire episode was shot at the Buy More, starting before [...]
The promos for this episode made it clear we were getting yet another person-from-the-past in Sarah’s Dad, which is enough to push this show into ridiculousness. Yet with a few minutes of cynical attention, the dedicated viewer was in for a surprise–a pretty decent episode.
Sarah takes a personal day, igniting Chuck’s curiosity enough to [...]
I didn’t have much time for blogging last week, and here we are ready to go again with a new week of shows. So I’ll review all my assigned programs in one fell swoop! Keep reading for insight into last week’s Chuck, Terminator, and My Own Worst Enemy.
Alas, we have piled up three [...]
Monday Night Football trumped Chuck last week on our overladen DVR, so I had to buy it from iTunes to watch. On the plus side, that meant I got to watch the back-to-back events actually back-to-back, which was nice.
But seriously. Are we ever going to have anyone from the past who’s not [...]

There is suspension of disbelief, and then there is ridiculousness.
Suspension of Disbelief: That a guy can have a computer fed into his brain that, when triggered, reveals stuff no one else knows.
Ridiculousness: That everyone this guy and his team have ever come in contact with is suddenly associated with spy stuff (Sarah’s high [...]
I was very amused at this week’s Chuck, as it addressed several of the things I’ve commented on from week to week. And while the episode did more than exchange a glance with ridiculousness, it was one of the best of the season, I think.
First, they drew all of the elements together. An [...]
I don’t usually feel old, despite being the mother of a 13-year-old and facing the ever-nearing need for reading glasses. But the beginning of this episode did it, during the opening scene.
I can’t believe Tubthumping came out 10 years ago!
Before I start ranting, let me concentrate on what was right with this episode.
Best moment [...]
We’ve talked about how, over time, many of us will tire of Chuck if they don’t find ways to have him change and grow. But so far, their winning formula is still working.
Morgan and the gang at Buy More are still a bunch of funny morons, this time with Michael Strahan as their foil, [...]
In this episode of Chuck, a “legendary” spy played by the always-fun John Larroquette is pulled back into “action” when they figure out the dangerous enemy who has the real Cipher, the brain needed to reconstruct the Intersect.
Chuck is pushed into going undercover and trying to seduce the enemy. Between the awkwardness and gawkiness, [...]
