Looking forward to tonights episode. Am still catching up on the previous seasons. Watching the episodes with Jill I forgot just how big of an idiot he was at times. A loveable idiot but still a whiney idiot.

I don't know if this goes here, in an Event thread or in video games.

Fun episode. Like how they put some tension back in the relationship. Big Mike had the best bit in a very long time.

Yeah the whole Greta thing sounds cool in theory, but so far out of three episodes it just seems like a wasted guest spot.

What was the song they kept playing? Sounded pretty catchy.

The Greta thing has been played off pretty poorly, since it wasn't really established well in the first two episodes. Else it would have been a nice gag.

Nicole Ritchie is a decent actress in this role, surprisingly enough.

This episode felt more "chuckish" with Buy More and vent locales instead of globetrotting. Too bad the Awesomes didn't make screen time, though I guess they are back in the spotlight next week.

I don't understand why they had CGI trucks driving down the road to start the show.

You know, I was thinking the exact same thing while watching.

Speaking of which, Hugo Panzer says to Chuck in the vent that he couldn't shoot him because of the gas line. So what exactly happened to that gas line when the vent fell off the ceiling? I thought there was going to be an explosion when they showed that laptop's circuits sizzling during their melee.

The whole "Chuck Vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin" in the "Steel Cage Match" was pretty funny - wonder how many people didn't get it?

I still don't get it. Wasn't that the role that was going to be a different actor every week (Munn, Old Spice, Keibler)? What am I missing?

I assumed it's meant to imply that Greta is a master of disguise.
