I liked Chuck. I like how he isn't completely incompetent. I liked how he was smart enough to his interrogator exactly what she wanted to hear, without actually revealing anything.
Pacing is a problem, though. It was just like Supernatural in that it ended ten minutes before the episode was over.
I liked Chuck too.
The Tango Lessions with Capt. Awesome were hilarious and so were many, many things that Casey did. AB is so great in this.
Chuck
was entertaining despite the bad fight scene. What I really liked were the opening credits! Weird that it took until ep 3 to show them.
Almost forgot: in the big Art Auction prep montage - my favorite thing was Casey and his bonsai tree.
My favourite bit that didn't involve the tango or Casey throwing a microwave oven at the evil henchman (hee!) was the Shawshank Redemption homage in that scene with Morgan trapped in the storage cage. They used the same duet, even! Awesome.

Nice! I didn't catch that. That's at least the second film homage they've done -- there was a North By Northwest reference in the pilot.
BSG: 1st Season 4 promo!!
Woo-hoo!
I only caught the tail end of Chuck, so my favorite part was the microwave taking out the bad guy. I have to go back and find a way to see the tango lessons now, though.

Loved it. I laffed and laffed. It's a silly show, but I'll probably keep watching because it's goofy fun. It doesn't take itself seriously at all, and neither should I.
The female lead is bad, the fighting is awful. But I like Adam's character and I like the sister.
I've not been a fan of Chuck, but they get extra points for the use of Gotan Project (Domingo and/or Santa Maria).
