Chuck

After watching this, I don't know how I can wait for season 3, anyone know when it will start again?

It might not.

Good chances it will not get renewed.

I thought it was pretty likely to be cancelled?

Yvonne Strahovski=, I feel I should point this out.

It was awesome. Great fun. Its a 50-50 to be renewed for a new season though.

MINOR SPOILER:

The fact that they ended with a to be continued was encouraging though. It could mean the producers already know their going to be renewed.

Or in the words of IGN.com, " Essentially throwing down the gauntlet to NBC, they dared end the episode with "To Be Continued…", letting it be known this was not the end of their story. That doesn't ensure a renewal of course, but let's all hope the show indeed does get the next season it so obviously deserves."

How messed up is this, he finaly gets his girls and now he knows how to protect himself and they will not show season 3.

I was gutted when they took Day Break off and now Chuck, this is messed up!

I really hope it gets picked up for season 3. No way can they just end on that.

No need to point this out, sir. This is just one of those simple, obvious facts of life. At least half of the reason to watch this show.

The other half being Sarah Lancaster.

Such a great show, it's daft as a brush but it knows it, just great, fun, comical entertainment, with the hottest female lead imaginable!

Watched the first 5 episodes and didn't think much of it. Bit predictable and i didn't really see where it was going to go. Should i have persevered, is the whole series better than the opening 5 episodes?

It's got Adam Baldwin in it, and thus ought to be renewed and given awards.

Sweet jesus yes, the first series was cut short to 13 episodes because of the writers strike, and while it gets better in the last few episodes, the second series is where it really gets going.

The writing is brilliant in season 2, very funny and great character interaction.

Honestly though, Chuck isn't the kind of show you'll want to watch for serious, realistic television. It's silly and has some ridiculous plot twists and turns in it, but its intentionally like this and does it really well. I love it.

It's not engrossing or anything, it's just fun, stupid watching, of the type you usually see more of in films than on tv.

Any tv show with cake as an intro song is good for me. I started watching it near the start of season 2 and have carried on watching it (now near the end I think) on Virgin.

Once Season 2 is over i'll check out Season 1, gotta love the backwards thinking of that eh?

Just seen the end of season 2, awesome. Can't wait for season 3.

Loved the last line, "Guys I know kung fu", kind of sums up the wacky nature of the show.

If it's aimed at me, I never wanted it to be a serious drama series.As a "comedy-fun" show it has never "caught" me however I like Psych, much funnier than Chuck

Chuck is perfect in that sense.

And Sarah!

Just read that NBC is likely to order an additional 6 episodes for season 3. Good news.

Great news! Will be finishing Season 2 next weekend with the final episode being shown on Tuesday. I actually think Sarah has risen above Megan Fox in my chart, beautiful las.

They had their moments, but I agree, on the whole they weren't that good. Another episode tonight, so hopefully it gets better.

Just got caught up ... I love this show. Season 2 was awesome, the back and forth, and the final few episodes were awesome. Season 3 is good so far, but it needs to pick up and I'm pretty stoked it's been renewed for at least 19 eps it seems. I hope the whole Jay Leno muck up doesn't screw it over. It's slotted against House and How I Met Your Mother. Maybe they should move it around.

I must add my Yvonne Strahovski crush as well ... I mean, god damn!

Also, the music to season 2 was fucking spot on ... Bon Iver for the Chuck and Sarah scenes just added to it. Everything led up to "Chuck vs. The Colonel" when they're in the shitty hotel. The missus is hooked too.
