    OH my holy CRAP! I thought they were winding down, Chuck is out of the CIA and all is right with the world, etc etc...

    And then BAM! Chuck inherit's dad's one-man-spy-empire.

    Clearly the show dynamic is going to change, because I don't believe they introduced Casey's daughter just to have her go away after a single episode.

    I'm REALLY looking forward to next season.

    This season has been very hit and miss for me.
    If next season doesn't pull it together the show won't last 6 episodes.

    True - the hit parts were with Chuck and the gang; the miss was that new gal that - thankfully traveled on to parts wherever.

    I started recording this show the day I tuned in and saw Scott Bakula, Chevy Chase, and Adam Baldwin. Thought, "How bad could this be?"

    Then I saw the chick who plays Chuck's sister. Giggity! :fun:

    Then I saw the chick he met on the airplane who came to work at the Buy More. Giggity! :fun:

    But it's gotten so painful that I can't even bring myself to watch it. I might even have removed it from my automatic recording schedule. Can't remember.

    You are both thoroughly fucking insane.

    This is the best show on TV today.

    True and irrelevant at the same time. :diacanu:

    You can't be serious. :brood:

    What about all the Buy More sub-plots? Bringing Chuck's friend in as a spy? Bringing in an older married spy couple to teach Chuck and his woman how to be a man/woman spy team? Testicle-crushingly awful.

    What may have been the one high point is when it turned out that Chuck's Spy Girlfriend's "red test" was Superman's dead wife, if only because Routh's acting lent the show a brief glimpse of dignity.

    Uh, say who in the what now?

    I think we're going down different roads my friend.

    Anyway...

    The other seasons were great, but this season seems to have lost its focus and Chuck's character seems to be all over the place. Plus the show just seemed to become unfunny once Chuck was trying to become super spy.

    And the finale? Did noone see the mother thing coming like the very second Chuck's dad got off'ed. And what the hell? Was Chuck and Elle raised by wolves?
