OK, "Costa Gravas" was pretty funny.
Sweet lumpy minion, you're the only one that understands. Probably 'cause I haven't sucked the brain out of you yet.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The Buffy shoutout on Being Human was wrong! She was on Angel.

Thank God that Chuck had a preview for next week's episode.
Seriously. After they so cavalierly offed Tony Hale in the season premiere, I was REALLY worried what had happened.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Yeah, but that doesn't have the name-recognition that Buffy does.

Hmmph. Playing to the lowest common denominator.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

For serious!

Art Crawl!!!
I know! They cannot kill Capt. Awesome!
Actually, I think what was missing from the first two episodes of Chuck was enough Awesome and Ellie.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
The first two episodes were really a waste, but this one had more charm. Last season's finale is a pretty hard act to follow.
I too was happy to not have to spend a week thinking of Chuck without Awesome.

Thank God that Chuck had a preview for next week's episode.
Can someone give me a quick recap of this? On Demand didn't show previews.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Yeah, I was surprised how upset I was when Sarah whispered "Awesome's dead." For once I was glad of a spoilery preview.
And I was quite glad to see (1) no stupid Buy More subplot, and (2) Chuck acting more like a spy instead of a bumbling idiot (this time poor Devon got to be the bumbler, but at least he didn't do anything *stupid*, just, let's say, ill-conceived. And he knows when he's out of his depth. We were kinda seeing Chuck from an outside perspective, and that was neat.
