Chuck

My husband and I watched this show when it originally aired, and now are rewatching it with our children. The show is fun and I still truly enjoy it. I want to shop at the Buy More!

I think this is the only TV show that had me hooked after just the first episode...I've watched a lot of TV shows and i would have to say that this is definitely the funniest of them...everyone has a different sense of humor..the previous post mentioned that this show wasn't funny...shocking to me..but oh well..people are different...humor aside, it's action packed and has it's serious moments (well serious until chuck arrives on the scene)...the fact that he doesn't mean to be funny makes it even funnier(if that makes any sense)...there's also some love triangle stuffs which in fact is one of the main things that makes you wanna keep watching(well.. me anyway)..I really do recommend watching this series(not one a week..just get the DVD and watch one episode after the other..makes it more enjoyable)..

When I was about 7 or 8 me and my dad were channel surfing one night and we caught the 2nd or 3rd episode of chuck. Every week we sat down together to watch it and by the time season 1 ended my brother, sister and mom had all migrated into the living room on nights it was on. Every week from 2007 to 2012 we all sat down together and watched it and every one of us loved it. But, enough of what it means to me, on to what it is.

It is a hilarious and touching spy show about friendship, family and doing the right thing but, surprising, it never becomes too sappy. The writing is top notch, in my opinion, and as a kid I just enjoyed the story. As an adult who's been to film school and on probably my 5th time through the show, more of its intricacies come out. For a relatively low budget show the action and thrills are incredible. No wonder the stunt coordinators won Emmys. It's a shame the rest of the show wasn't nominated for anything else, acting, writing, directing, etc. But awards don't make a show, do they. Zachary Levi is astounding. Funny, charming and brave, mixed in with a touch of childish fear and glee all at once. The chemistry between all of the main cast is palpable.

This brings me to the music. I owe a giant thank you to the person who found the music for this show. My taste is music was nurtured by all the songs and bands I discovered through this show and a lot of them are still some of my favorite bands today. From Band of Horses to Frightened Rabbit and Bon Iver, Jeremy Messersmith to Blitzen Trapper and Eels, this show had the best soundtrack of any movie or show I've seen to this day.

Chuck shaped my childhood and my adulthood. I really hope you check it out as well!

I'm actually blown away by how much I liked the show Chuck! I never watched it when it was on but had time of the pandemic and finally caught up. I loved it! It's about a computer geek named Chuck Bartowski (Zachary Levi) as he accidentally downloaded a secret weapon that downloades massive amounts of critical information to his brain, everything from terrorists to look out for, how to learn to fight, fix things, fly, or whatever else he needs in a matter of seconds. Assassins and terrorists all over the world try to get to him to get that information. He works alongside CIA agent Sarah Walker (Yvonne Strahovski) and Major John Casey (Adam Baldwin) to protect this secret and to get the bad guys. If you haven't seen this yet don't be like me and keep putting it off, make it's your next show to watch. You won't be disappointed!

I've always heard great things about Chuck and read all the great reviews and ratings but still put off watching it for some reason. I thought I'd finally give it chance and I'm glad I did because I enjoyed it a lot. It has everything you want in a good tv show...comedy, action, drama, mystery, romance, etc, etc. I now know why Chuck's fan base was always so loyal and loud about bringing it back.
