    I really do like this show. My main problem with it is that everytime I watch it I get the theme song stuck in my head for about a week. I'll be walking around the house singing that bassline "dooooo do doodle oo, do doodle do dooo do doodle oo"

    I also enjoy the opening credits.

    The rest of the show is pretty awesome as well.

    the first time they played the theme (in like the third episode or something) I was like "holy crap they used a cake song, this is perfect"

    also I'm glad that they added some of the other cast members to the opening credits

    I just watched the first episode again on my lunch break (yay iPhone) and it was still pretty awesome.

    I'm really excited for the second season, and also really bummed that NBC thought it would be a better idea to have 3 hours worth of Heroes related television than to just show Chuck last Monday as well.

    I have a friend who absolutely refuses to watch this show because she "Doesn't like primetime representations of nerds or spys"

    She gets angry when I wonder why she hates good.

    I find it funny that Captain Awesome has billing over Ellie.

    technically yeah, but I think the people labeled with "and (name)" tend to be more important!

    Oh really? Huh, I was under the impression that 'starring' was basically top billing and 'featuring' was "well okay they're in here too".

    basically I think they put the people at the end behind an "and" who are kind of known for other shows and stuff but aren't the main stars

    Usually people have it in their contract to be "featuring". It is some secret Hollywood thing. By far Adam Baldwin is the "star power" aside from Levi being fresh faced and the actual star so having him as a "featuring" makes sense. Ellie? I donno... I've never seen her before, but daddy likes.

    Also- Josh Gomez is the brother of Rick "Endless Mike Hellstrom" Gomez. That makes me so happy.

    I'm still amazed they got away with having a character named "Harry Tang" for as long as they did.

    The part where he's trying to get Chuck to practice on Sarah was fucking hysterical.

    The famous Bartowski eyebrow wiggle, yes.

    God I hope he does get Sarah in the end, it would be fucking shitty if he didn't.

    Also, I liked Casey's
    plugging of Chuck in an obvious effort to get the general to call off killing him when the new Intersect is finished

    also her reaction to Roan coming in

    I sporadically watched this in the first season, and am now catching it faithfully. Last night's episode was pretty good, lots of romance and action. Sarah and Chuck have some great chemistry.

    I thought it was weird that they had Yvonne doing a promo and she was talking in her american accent rather than her regular voice.

    I think I only heard her regular voice once and it really threw me off. Though this is mostly because I work until midnight on Mondays and watch it when I get home fast forwarding through the commercials.

    Last nights was great though, watching Sarah walk through the Buy More is up there as one of my favorite moments.

    I love this show. I love everything about it. I love the actors and characters. I just love it. I love the theme song. I love Chuck.

    One of my most favorite returning new series' that overcame the strike and made it to a second season. (Along with Pushing Daisies and Terminator.)

    Havent watched last nights yet. Since I have a conflict with three shows on Monday night I just recently rearranged my priorities so Chuck didn't record again. Thank goodness for Hulu. Fortunately next week it'll be fixed. HD Chuck for all. Side note: Why the hell doesn't Hulu have an HD version of Chuck? WTF?

    I felt this way as well until I recently found out I had missed an episode in the first season, specifically the one were Chuck goes back to Standford
    Its kind of hard to hate Bryce when he tried to help Chuck stay out of the CIA and not get himself killed.

    Considering how well Chuck is doing completely sans-training, I'd say that he would have been a pretty kickass agent and fuck Bryce for ruining that chance for him.

    I think he more didn't want Chuck to be a jaded superagent or whatever because Chuck is so lovable and happy and such

    although getting him kicked out of college and sleeping with his girlfriend probably weren't good ways to achieve that goal
