thought yesterday's episode was pretty entertaining

Ditto.

Though Chuck is basically more likely to be cancelled than renewed, I would like them to maybe finish up the season with the wedding.

btw Morgans girlfriend is way hot.

hard to believe yesterday's episode was a coincidence but it had to be unless they were somehow able to edit that in there last minute, either way it was completely priceless to see, I just about spit my drink out

Dude, chuck is gonna fuck that chick up for that!

Awesome ep. I couldn't have called the ending (though I was wondering why she didn't hit someone else sooner, I couldn't have called who she did hit.)

I thought she was gonna kill his mom.

That being said, I would love to see some Sarah-Vivian girl on girl action :)

Thats what I thought was going to happen. I figured "Hey, she has had her as a prisoner for so long, getting her DNA would have been a snap." That and "Isn't she a temporary actor for the show anyways? why not get rid of her."

But yea, Chuck suffers from a bad timeslot (competing with House and the CBS comedies) and a lack of advertising from the get go. Since Chuck is a serial, they had to build their viewer base from the beginning, and they never really did so.

Chuck suffers from not being fun anymore. I loved the first couple of seasons, and as they went on...they dragged on. The initial fun for me was a nerd getting the girl and saving the day on scary missions. But then he got the girl and had confident kung-fu skills so that missions didn't have tension anymore. I catch an episode here and there but it feels like the heart of the show is missing. I was glad when Morgan got onboard tho :awe:

Same thing happened to Lost after a few seasons, and Heroes. I dunno how they can keep shows going for long periods of time without getting boring. I got bored of House after awhile too, it was fun for a few seasons and then it got stupid with the people change imo. One of the exceptions is X-Files (before Robert Patrick and minus the alien scenes) - I enjoyed most seasons of that show. Writing has to be a really hard gig...no one seems to ever get sequels right either.

OK, this is getting a bit ridiculous now. Now Morgan knows kung-fu?

Meh, you know they are going to remove the intersect from him and put it into chuck. My bet (if they aren't canceled) the next few episodes are going to focus on getting the intersect out of morgan.

All in all, I thought this episode was decent, though, holy cow, it felt like 15->20 minutes of tv show and 40 minutes of commercial. Thank goodness for dvr.

Chuck has been renewed for the next (final) season.

yeah, I really hope they go back to some explanation of how Chuck is the ideal vessel for being an intersect and that Morgan's transformation doesn't go completely smooth to where he's still pretty useless or he becomes an intersect but is over the top in that he can't control it and hilarity ensues when he kicks way too much ass or he uses a completely backwards skill to solve a situation

Really? It felt like a series finale to me. Had they taken the last scene out, this very well could have been a good ending for chuck.

Compared to the last two season finales, I thought it was weaker. I didn't care for the way they wrapped up the Volkoff arc.

I don't know what to think about the last scene.
