Chuck Finale Review
As I mentioned in an post earlier today, I went over to my friend’s house early to watch the first ever episode of Chuck. And boy and I glad that I did.
(Spoilers ahead)

Goodbye Chuck!
I remember over the summer of 2007 listening to a GeekShow Entertainment podcast as they previewed the new shows of the 2007 Fall television series. I specifically remember being grocery shopping (no lie) when they talked about a show where a nerdy guy gets a super computer inputted into his mind and gets thrown into a world of action and adventure.
That intrigued me.
2007 was also a year my wife and I were still living with friends after moving back from Florida the previous Fall. I remember telling my friend about this show and that we should give it a try.
We did, and we both fell in love with the show. While living with them for almost another year, we watched every episode together. After moving out, I still would go over every Monday (and now Friday) night to watch Chuck together. It was our show.
And tonight, I’m going back over to say goodbye. Goodbye, Chuck.

All In A Day’s Work
Yes, part of my work today (shooting a holiday video) had me wearing this. Not a bad way to spend a Wednesday.

Muppets! Muppets! Muppets!
Next week a great piece of my childhood is returning to the big screen as The Muppets return to the big screen for the first time in over a decade in - what else, The Muppets.

Say It Ain’t So!? Community Sidelined!
The butthole flag at Greendale Community College is flying at half mast today.
By now, I am sure that you’re aware that @nbc has announced that Community is not part of their midseason schedule. They say that the show is not canceled - but doesn’t that really just mean “not yet?”
It really is a shame that a show so unique and innovative can’t draw an audience - but it’s probably the uniqueness of the show that is to blame for its small audience.
That and the fact that it is on NBC.

You Should be Watching American Horror Story
Seriously, if you are not watching this show, then you are missing out on one of the most suspenseful, bizzare, horrific, frightening, and awesome television shows on the air right now.
I like to think that Glee is suffering because its creators are putting all their focus here. I’m sure that’s not true - but after watching four episodes (and catching up on number five tonight) I’m craving for more.
That’s when I know I’m hooked.
Already renewed for a second season, check out American Horror Story if you haven’t yet. If you have - tell me what you think!

The Beginning of the End: The Final Season of Chuck
Tonight marks one of those bittersweet moments in the life (or lack there of) of a fan for a television show. The show you love is finally back for a new season - but you know going in that it is going in that this is it. This is the end.
Tonight that show is Chuck.
I don’t have much time to write this tonight but I just wanted to say something about a show that has brought me and my friends a lot of fun over the last 4 seasons (tonight starts Chuck’s fifth and final season).
This is the one show left that I still get together with my buddy for every week - and that’s why I don’t have much time to type. I have to quickly walk my dog, eat dinner, and head over to my friend’s house…For the first of the last.
It’s funny looking back to the beginning - realizing just how much has changed with the show.
But one thing has never changed - Chuck doesn’t take itself seriously. It’s a comedy show above all. And while it pokes fun at the spy/action genre, it does it with a quality that makes it an actual great addition to that genre.
That’s all I’m going to say for now - just happy to have Chuck and all his friends back….
For one final season!
