Chuck

Since this is the first time I'm going to review this show, I'd just like to provided people who haven't seen it with a cliff notes version of the past three years. With the understanding that I'm about to lose all of my objectivity, I want to urge you guys to watch this show, even if it sounds too convoluted to just jump on board. It's a blast, and once you start you'll figure things out pretty quickly.


Chuck follows Chuck Bartowski (Zachary Levi), Nerd Herder (think Best Buy's Geek Squad) turned super-spy thanks to a former friend who sends him an e-mail containing government secrets encoded in images that our hero unwittingly and subliminally downloads into his brain. Now a fountain of valuable information, Chuck is protected around the clock by Sarah Walker (Yvonne Strahovski), CIA agent with a soft spot, and her NSA counterpart, the deadly and sardonic John Casey (Adam Baldwin).


After three seasons, one upgrade, and multiple romantic entanglements, Chuck is still struggling to balance his secret life, hiding his espionage activities from his sister Elly (Sarah Lancaster) and brother in-law Devon a.k.a Captain Awesome (Ryan McPartlin). His best friend Morgan (Joshua Gomez), now manager of the Buy More, the electronics store where Chuck works, has been let in on the secret and is now a part of Chuck's team. Plus Chuck and Sarah are trying to make a go of it as a couple. Follow any of that? No? Watch these clips from last season.
