Re: Chuck -- "Chuck Versus the Suitcase" -- 09/27/10

Decent episode. MUCH better then the abomination that was the premier. I'm glad too have the "Buy More" of old back, mainly because of the return of Jeff and Lester. But despite this episode being decent, this show isn't near as good as some of the other falls shows, but since I've been a fan since season one, I'll defiantly stick around. Hopefully it gets progressively better from here.

Whomever played the Woman Spy was horrible. I am guessing she was not hired for her acting ability.
Could have done without Jeffster. They are not funny.

"Put some clothes on"

I love Sarah, and I loved that line, but I couldn't disagree with that sentiment more.

The whole scene with Morgan and Casey acquiring Jeffster was awesome. From Morgan falling for the Jedi Mind Trick to Casey going nuts on Jeff with the trank darts, that was a great segment.

Also, I love the whole idea that the Buy More is run too well and that people would suspect that something was wrong if the store didn't actually suck.

Sarah look even better as a redhead...then again I love redheads.

Chuck slapping Lou Ferrigno was great, his reaction was priceless.

Always love when Sarah fights another hot chick.

All in all a great episode.

I really enjoyed this episode. It was 10x better than the premier in my opinion.

I felt like the character interactions were more realistic and the comedy was more natural. For some reason the premier felt very off with both of these.

I really enjoyed the interactions between Chuck and Sarah throughout the episode. They had very realistic conversations amidst their spy drama too. Nice balance.

Interesting how much Morgan is growing up. I wonder if his promotion means the General will go back to being a picture on the screen. I've enjoyed her time at the Buy More. Plus, "Fetching."

I hope Casey's phone call means that we'll get to see his daughter again. Clearly Morgan is interacting with her on some level.

Loved the Jeff and Morgan interaction. "Is there room for two?" So wrong and nasty, but hilarious.

The fight scene between Sarah and the spy was great and yet crappy. It was too slow and the crowd reaction wasn't something I'd expect. Otherwise it was one of the most original I've seen in a long time.

Ellie and Devon are always welcome. Episodes that feature some component of Bartowski family life always seems to rise above the rest.

Yeah, he sure didn't have much of a part.

I really wanted to give up on this show and pretend that "Chuck vs The Other Guy" was the series finale.

But then they keep giving us Yvonne in outfits like that and I can't quit the show.

Yeah, it had all the staples of a good episode but felt decidedly mediocre to me as well. I enjoyed the premier more.

Is Olivia Munn off the show already?

I think her and Old Spice guy - perhaps others too - are supposed to be rotating interfaces at the Buy More for the gang. Come to think of it there could be some great Old Spice Guy and Jeffster interactions.

I don't think she was ever more than a "one episode" character.

While this episode was better than the premier, I think it better pick up the pace or this season will be the last. Good move by bringing Jeffster and the Buy More crew back.

Also, a little less Capt Awesome being paranoid and jittery like a poodle and more of his calm, California laid back attitude. They've wrecked his character.

They are all playing the same character... Greta. Male/female, black/white, doesn't matter.

Other than the horrible acting by the female spy, liked this ep a lot. Loved the Chuck/Sarah interaction and the Casey/Morgan stuff. Happy that the Buy More folks are back. And glad to see Ellie/Awesome again. I do agree that I'd rather have them know what was going on instead of taking a step back, but I'll survive.

I thought it was a neat touch to see a young-looking Linda Hamilton and Scott Bakula in Ellie's photo album. They did a really good job with that. Still sad that their dad is gone. Hope we get some more Momma Bartowski stuff soon.

And yeah, what the hell was up with that Bronson Pinchot cameo? They seriously put him in the credits for that?!

I only found two from the closet doorway that weren't worth sharing - bad quality.

It's amazing what you can find if you google "chuck" and "screencaps"...

^ Those are still missing 'key' frames. Same as what I had seen elsewhere.

Re: Chuck -- "Chuck Versus the Suitcase" -- 09/27/10

Does anyone remember when the followup episodes were ordered for last season? I think the show does pretty well considering it's up against a powerhouse like Dancing. Curious as to when we should expect a yeah or nea on the continuation?

Is Zach Levi friggin lucky or what? It's one thing to land a gig on a decent show, but to be surrounded by these hot ass woman constantly is more than one guy deserves

I don't know him personally, but from what I've seen he seems like a cool, nerdy, 'everyman' so I'm happy for him... ridiculously jealous, sure, but still happy

I couldn't think of anything worse. Surrounded by all that tail and not being able to partake? It's like going thru a candy store with boxing gloves on.
