Another charming episode...I'm totally in love with Olive...loved the bit with Emmerson and the pavlovian response... I am going to miss this show when the strike takes it away from us.

I don't usually watch ABC shows, but after hearing all the good things about this one (and having the desire to see Kristin in HD), I decided to turn it on tonight. I have one question: does ABC always show this many goddamn commercials? Jeez!
P.S. Kristin getting naked during the opening credits...YES!

For a split second at the beginning I thought, "Holy cow--he touched her! They killed off Chuck!" But she wasn't dead and I knew then it had to be a dream. I wish I could have a dream about naked Olive. Ned's description to Emerson was funny. "She was wearing a Chuck suit."
I liked the psychiatrist wife analyzing "Ned" with "Mr. Digby."
Clever how they used the dead guy and Ned's power to smoke out the guilty wife. Speaking of, where do I know her from? She looks very familiar. So did the youngest wife, but I can't place her either.
I'm going to go try to dream of naked Olive now.

Actually, when he touched Chuck and she lived, the first thought I had was that my theory after episode one was turning out to be correct, and that it would be proven later in the season that he COULD touch her and nothing would happen because the rule was suspended for her after she saved his life.

In the opening scene when Chuck throws the covers back and swings her legs out, I swear there is a hint of beaver on the side. 10 minutes of frame by frame up close analysis on my HDTV proved inconclusive, but I don't think it was a shadow.
Oh, and good epiode.

Jenny Wade you probably know from 'Feast' - the Project Greenlight one

Oh, and excellent episode. I really like how the writers make both Olive and Chuck desirable characters, instead of playing favorites.

For one, she was Joel's fiance in Northern Exposure.

I'm ready to let this show go. I've watched from the beginning and am getting nervous because they are painting themselves into a corner story-wise. It is just a matter of time before they have an episode where he transfers his powers to someone else, he finally gets to touch Chuck, then he is forced to reclaim his ability to help save someone or something.

Maybe you should stop watching the imaginary show instead of the real show.
