Presenting to you the most disastrous spies alive - Chuck. Starring Zachary Levi, Yvonne Strahovski, Adam Baldwin, and Joshua Gomez. The 3rd season is still airing on NBC.
I stumbled upon this show by sheer coincidence. I was just browsing for random shows and found Chuck. I was hooked on it since then, and that was two years ago. It's so amazingly funny and honestly, amazing is simply an understatement. Chuck is written by the same person who brought the scandalous filled lives of young Manhattan jet-setters, Gossip Girl, alive - Josh Schwartz. It showcases great castings, solid storyline that's enticing to follow and in-your-face funny. Bottom line, the more I watch it, the more addicted I am.
The story is about Chuck Bartowski (Zachary Levi), a Stanford dropout tech savvy who has an underdog life working in an electrical store leading a bunch of accident prone nerd herds in debugging computers and solving everyday computer problems - but he's not exactly happy about his life, especially the fact that he still lives with his sister and brother-in-law. But one day he became an accidental spy/secret agent after an intersect (a neural supercomputer developed by the US Government, of which contains the government's innermost spy secrets) was being downloaded into his brain under the graces of his college buddy, Bryce Larkin, a secret agent himself. Together with the geek-turn-hero are CIA agent, Sarah Walker (Yvonne Strahovski) and NSA representative John Casey (Adam Baldwin), both assigned by their respective departments to protect him as he is the last remaining person who knows about the intersect.
Is she hot or what?
It is also sweet to watch the budding love chemistry between Chuck and Sarah which contributes to the romantic elements of the show. However, it kills me to think that they might not be able to establish a normal relationship forever because it might jeopardies either of their lives - argh! Sandwiched in between are bunch of quirky lines and stupidity displayed in Buy More, the electrical store where Chuck works while he's not on his crazy missions.
Now for something non-related to the show. Meet the beautiful people in Chuck.
Zachary is so adorable. He recently sang alongside Katharine Mcphee in her song "Terrified" from her new album "Unbroken", the same song that was composed by the awesome Kara DioGuardi, song producer and judge for American Idol.
Hailing all the way from Australia, Yvonne Strahovski of Polish descendent is like a goddess in flesh. She should be sued for looking so hot and great job on the accent! She sounded almost like an American in Chuck but natively Australian in her interviews - confused? She reminded me very much of Olivia Wilde, Lena Headey and hotter version of Julia Stiles.
OMG, look at that hot bod. I wonder when will I get those hard rock abs. Sigh. Chuck, you can stop staring now, you'll never get the girl! Some of her other works are The Canyon.
He looks like the Michaelangelo sculpture, David. There's just something about the blue glassy eyes. His latest appearance is in White Collar.
There you have it, my take on Chuck. I'm still watching every episode without fail and I'm even planning on re-watching it! I hope you like this review, more to come.
