Starts tonight! Any other fans across SportsJournalists.com Nation? I didn't watch a lick of it when it aired on NBC last year, but got into the show the last few weeks via surfthechannel and borrowing the DVD set from a friend. The only thing which really grinds my gears is Chuck's best friend Morgan. His antics are a bit over the top sometimes. The episode with Mr. Awesome's ring comes to mind.

Oh yeah, Yvonne is absolutely stunning.

edit: Wow, just noticed the banner at the top of the page advertising the new season.
 
I love the show ... I think Zach Levi is eminently likable as the title character. It gets a little over the top sometimes, but it's an up-beat show that makes me happy when I watch it. And that's a good thing.

And, yes, Yvonne is smoking. As is Sarah Lancaster.

Also, in an age when TV theme songs seem dead, Chuck's always sticks in my head:
 
I got into it late last season. Meant to put it in my season pass but forgot so I missed the first half hour last night.

Just an enjoyable way to spend a Monday night hour.

Just watched it online and so far, the show hasn't lost a step. Maybe a bit cheesy at the end with 'Charles Charmichael' being the boss. Then again, it's not supposed to be 'Alias'. Fun, fun show.
 
I figured with all the fans of Heroes on here, there would be some watching since it's on just before.
 
Never seen it. Friends said it's good. I turn it on and the first thing I see tonight "Bogota, Columbia 2005". Switch.

I shouldn't have to be copy-editing 10 seconds into watching a show for the first time.
 
I continue to really enjoy this show.

Hopefully they can get a full season in before NBC cancels it. Because as ratings continue to shrink from one week to the next, I don't see it being here next year.

By all means, cost yourself dozens of hours of entertainment because someone screwed up a graphic.

Hey, maybe NBC needs to hire a copy editor?

Anyway, I still like the show. Which means it's not long for production, probably.
 
I've just started watching this season, and I like the show. It's not as complex or deep as most series I like, but it's fun.

I was worried that they were making a bad move by turning Chuck and Sarah into an item, because it would destroy the sexual tension between them. But they handled it nicely, even if it's hard to believe that any guy would voluntarily pass up on a chance to make things happen with her. I suppose that's why he's a hapless loser who works at a Best Buy (or whatever they call it). Fortunately he'll get another shot at her right before the series is cancelled. Gotta love television.
 
Finally caught up with the last two episodes. I always miss it because of MNF and well, I'm not used to the time change out here just quite yet even though it's been a year. I like how Chuck 'ended' whatever what was going on between the two and hopefully the tension level rises due to it.
 
If ever there was a thread crying out for a Heathersjack this week, this is the one. Lots of fun 80s and 90s high school movie callbacks, and a pretty dark subplot involving Sarah's background and how she got involved in the CIA, mercifully, none of which involved Bryce Larkin. Nicole Richie wasn't bad, but she didn't exactly set the show on fire, either.

Coming soon: the appearance of the mysterious Jill.
 
I am sorry but I love the Big Box themes throughout the show. Having worked in retail part-time on a regular basis, the Buy More clips are real funny to me.
 
As they are to me after serving a couple of years at my local Best Buy. Good episode. Was flipping back and forth between it and MNF. Finally some backstory on Sarah (Jenny, whoever...) along with a Boy Meets World former star!
 
Great show. Worried it'll get lost in the ratings crunch with "Life," which is even better. I'll take stunt-casting like Strahan if it keeps the show alive a little longer ...
 
Nicole Richie looked surprisingly hot, didn't she? Not on par with Yvonne Strahovski -- one of the hottest women in the history of history -- but still, not too shabby.

You have to love the Heather Chandler and Mark Ratner references. Also, I could be wrong, but I think the music where they're putting the Buy More back together at the end was the music from the similar scene in Risky Business.
