    "Chuck" Season 3

    You just hit upon my only real criticism of the finale. This is a man who devoted his life to taking down the Ring. When he discovered that Sarah had shot his wife, he reluctantly turned to the Ring in order to get his revenge. Everything through the shoot out on the bridge I can buy. But the...

    "Chuck" Season 3

    I hope that Mekenna Melvin (Alex McHugh) is a regular next season, because she fit in great with the cast. I like the way she could be simultaneously naive and kick ass; the anti-Casey with karate.

    "Chuck" Season 3

    No comments about the most explosive two hours of television this season? At times I felt like I was watching a "Chuck" movie. The ending would have made a great series finale if the show hadn't been renewed. All they'd have had to do was have the message from Chuck's father be an erase code for...

    "Chuck" Season 3

    I think you could even argue that Chuck revealing to the world that he's the Intersect would be an act of treason, since the Intersect is a state secret, and sharing state secrets is an act of treason.

    "Chuck" Season 3

    Just an all around great hour of television. I don't have any complaints this week. What a shocker of an ending, too.

    "Chuck" Season 3

    It does beg the question: was SciFi really that confident that "Caprica" would rocket out of the gate and a renewal would be a foregone conclusion, or is the guy in legal who drew up the contract going to find himself in hot water?

    Oh! Well that's awkward.

    Caprica will be back this fall for the second half of its first season. I wouldn't imagine hearing renewal news until after that.

    "Chuck" Season 3

    Hah! Didn't even catch that. I guess the joke was just too irresistable to pass up, especially since it means promoting a Warner Bros. movie on a Warner Bros. TV show. Sarah's professional critiques remind me of when I was growing up and my father the volunteer firefighter would dissect episodes...

    Tonight's episode was further confirmation that Fred Willard makes everything except Everybody Loves Raymond better.

    "Chuck" Season 3

    Really enjoyed it too. There were definite moments of "Where the hell do we go from here?", though. My favorite moment had to be Jeffster dressed up like Simon and Garfunkel singing that Peter, Paul and Mary song. It's staggering how much Jeff looks like Garfunkel. And that had to be the...

    "Chuck" Season 3

    Good episode, great last fifteen minutes or so. Shaw's death was a classic comic book style dead-but-with-plenty-of-room-for-survival that leaves his character open to return when we least expect it. I was somewhat disappointed that they eventually made Shaw the bad guy, because I found it...

    "Chuck" Season 3

    I agree with you that Shaw was most effective when he was shaking up the status quo, but I thought the relationship stuff worked. Sarah turned to Shaw in spite of her desire not to because she needed a rebound from Chuck and Shaw was the only available candidate. In a way Sarah was Shaw's...

    "Chuck" Season 3

    An interesting but frustrating review in the Chicago Tribune with showrunner Chris Fedak. Interesting in that it goes far more in depth than other recent press on the show. Frustrating in that interviewer Maureen Ryan is clearly among those viewers who wanted the show to stay in its safe...

    "Chuck" Season 3

    You're half right. The six episodes added to the order were filmed as a "mini-arc", rather than padding out the existing episodes. However, they're more of a postscript to the third season, and will start airing after the original season finale next week. Brandon Routh was reupped twice from...

    Man, this show's been great television lately. It just keeps building and building. Great Casey moments the two episodes.

    "Chuck" Season 3

    Great episode tonight, assuming things don't immediately return to the status quo. Relationships we thought were departing prove to be on more stable ground than first appeared, and other ones are on much rockier ground. It's always a risk when a show pulls the curtain back on a mysterious...

    "Chuck" Season 3

    Terrific episode, but it enters the show into risky territory; there's always the danger that pretty much everyone will know Chuck's secret at some point and take away the plausibility of his dual life. I think the show's aware of this, thus Awesome's breakdown. My favorite scene was Chuck and...

    "Chuck" Season 3

    A really strong episode. Not a fun episode, since it's yet another episode where the world dumps on Chuck, but the things that needed to happen happened. I thought Chuck and Hannah worked really well together, but I'm glad they ended it now rather than dragging it out with the "You're lying to...

    "Chuck" Season 3

    Really? Schwartz and Fedak told Ausiello that Routh's run had been extended yet again. I don't think he's in every episode, but I think he will be back for at least one episode into the mini-season. March trailer:

    "Chuck" Season 3

    The first new "Chuck" after the Winter Olympics is Kristin Kreuk's last episode. Brandon Routh's run has been extended through the end of the season.

    "Chuck" Season 3

    It wasn't impossible for Chuck and Sarah to be together because they're spies, it was impossible for them to be together because Sarah was a spy and Chuck was looking for the nearest exit ramp from the Intercept. Obviously, that's no longer the case, anad Sarah made her move but by Chuck...

    "Chuck" Season 3

    I would say they've grown significantly, but they've grown slightly when most the rest of the NBC line-up has plunged like a rock. I don't see how "Chuck" doesn't get renewed with five extra hours to fill. I love "Chuck" on Mondays, but I sorta wish they'd stop running it against the "House"...

    "Chuck" Season 3

    I'm happy they've decided to explore the walls between the various parts of Chuck's life starting to crumble, as long as they don't find some lame excuse to put Ellie and Morgan back in the dark. Since he's finally starting to get comfortable with the status quo, it was time to shake things up...

    "Chuck" Season 3

    They're all pretty much in the toilet. Right now, NBC only has two shows that can be called hits: "The Biggest Loser" and "The Office". Everything else, including "30 Rock" and "Chuck", ranges from mediocre to terrible. "30 Rock" does marginally better than the 8:00 hour comedies because it has...
