[SPOILERS] An episode guest-starring blonde bombshell Tricia Helfer deserved to be much better than "Chuck Versus The Broken Heart", but this week's Chuck wasted a good idea, although there were some funny moments to help compensate... General Beckman's (Bonita Friedericy) surveillance has provided evidence that Chuck (Zachary Levi) and Sarah's (Yvonne Strahovski) relationship is veering...

[SPOILERS] While it was of vital importance to Chuck's mythology and an admired episode in fan circles, I have to say that "Chuck Versus The Predator" didn't quite hang together for me. I definitely wasn't bored, I appreciated its developments to the mytharc, but it was often so unwieldy and ridiculous that I couldn't take it all that seriously... Now, I know that Chuck's never been the epitome...

[SPOILERS] A fun episode with lots to enjoy, if undermined by the fact it was a story we've seen done before, and better. It helped that it caused more upset between Chuck (Zachary Levi) and Sarah (Yvonne Strahovski) that's always a masochistic pleasure to watch, but "Chuck Versus The Beefcake" just lacked a fresh sparkle... This week's mission finds Chuck, Sarah and Casey (Adam Baldwin)...

[SPOILERS] It features a gang of disposable bad guys with a storyline that doesn't amount to much, but "Chuck Versus The Best Friend" compensated by placing the emphasis firmly on the regulars, resulting in a heartfelt episode for Chuck (Zachary Levi) and buddy Morgan (Joshua Gomez)... Morgan's ex Anna (Julia Ling) has a new man in her life; handsome, affluent car salesman Jason Wang (Jack...

[SPOILERS] Originally shown as part of a 3D promotion in the US, "Chuck Versus The Third Dimension" suffers from the distracting nature of anaglyphic 3D, which doesn't give a satisfying experience because it requires a bit of effort to accept its slightly warped views. The gimmick-y nature of the 3D made this episode harder to be swept along by, which was a shame. Chuck foils a terrorist...

Didn't make it down to San Diego for Comic-Con this year? Or were stuck waiting in line for the final Lost panel and didn't get to see this year's Chuck panel, moderated by Alan Sepinwall? You're in luck, my friends. Thanks to the folks at NBC and Hulu, the entire Chuck panel can be viewed in full below. (Yes, the entire panel.) Chuck Josh Schwartz, Chris Fedak, Zachary Levi, Yvonne Strahovski, Joshua...

That introduced an interesting problem for the series, given that Chuck ( Zachary Levi ) is a wimpy big-box employee with a brain full of secret government downloads. Until the finale, he needed protection so the bad guys wouldn't kill him. Going forward, how will the show's writers handle a guy who can handle himself? Well, as TV.com learned at the show's Comic-Con panel, Chuck's new-found fighting...

Ballroom 20 was full of scream when Vik Sahay grabbed the mic and Scott Krinsky brought up his keytar, performing 'Fat-Bottomed Girls'.

I love Chuck . It's without a doubt, one of my absolute favorite shows currently on tv, and if you haven't seen it, check out the DVD's immediately. One of the strongest aspects of the show, is it's rich supporting cast. Here are Jefferson Barnes (Scott Krinsky) and Lester Partel (Vik Sahay) a.k.a. Jeffster performing at the San Diego Comic-Con. Be sure to check out Jeffster's first appearance from...

Normal 0 SAN DIEGO - "Lost" and "Iron Man 2" had the places of honor in Hall H, where the most anticipated productions and fan favorites (although I'm sure some would debate the latter) begin and end the day. I love "Lost," and though it is entering its last season, I chose to go to the "Chuck" panel in Ballroom 20 instead. The feeling is, "Lost" doesn't...

Chris Fedak, who with Josh Schwartz created the NBC favorite Chuck , spent much of the Comic-Con panel writing things down. Or at least pretending to write things down. On stage at the event, which was jump started with a performance by Jeffster!, were exec producers Schwartz and Fedak, Zachary Levi (Chuck Bartowski), Joshua Gomez (Morgan Grimes), Adam Baldwin (John Casey), Yvonne Strahovski (Sarah...

Hey, all. Having sprinted from the "Chuck" panel to the mammoth Hall H for the final "Lost" panel, I'm going to camp out here for a while so I can see the "Iron Man 2" panel in a few hours. (Though if the movie panels in between seem particularly bad, I might bail before Tony Stark and company show.) So while my laptop battery lasts, I'm going to write up some thoughts...

The curse of the weak Buy More subplot is sidestepped in "Chuck Versus Tom Sawyer" by involving it in the main plot. It also takes the time to provide welcome, if not exactly long-awaited, back-story to wild-haired weirdo Jeff (Scott Krinsky)...This week, terrorists are after the code to an... This is a preview.

Okay, I now have some details of the "Chuck" panel I'll be moderating at Comic-Con. Looks like it'll be Saturday morning (July 25), likely at 10 a.m., with Josh Schwartz, Chris Fedak, and virtually the whole cast: Zachary Levi, Yvonne Strahovski, Adam Baldwin, Joshua Gomez, Ryan McPartlin, Sarah Lancaster, Mark Christopher Lawrence, Vik Sahay and Scott Krinsky. I'm still feeling my way around...
