Chuck: Chuck Versus the Other Guy (2010)
A heartwarming masterpiece
Ten years on, and the Chuck and Sarah moment in this episode still moves me. One of the best moments on TV. Zachary and Yvonne absolutely steal the show.
Chuck: Chuck Versus the Goodbye (2012)
A crushing end to a beautiful journey
Every show has a theme to it. Chuck's is a mix of love, action and comedy beautifully wrapped together in the first four seasons. And the show should have ended in the fourth season. Chuck isn't a series to have a sad and depressing end or a realistic one for that matter. Because a lot of things in this show are far from reality. It isn't your go to spy action TV series like 24 or Homeland where the focus is on intricate details of a mission and the heroics and sacrifices of the lead protagonist. It's a journey of love, comedy, smiles, relationships and subtle changes.
I liked Chuck because of the journey of Sarah and Chuck, where they fall in love with subtle character development throughout the show, filled with good comical moments from BuyMore store, Morgan and Jeffster. What made it SPECIAL was the strong emotional bond and connection that Chuck and Sarah developed over four years, with an amazing chemistry between the two actors.
That connection and the journey made this show feel special. The last 2 episodes of the show where Sarah lost her memory to a rogue agent(whose own character os no where as cunning like Volkoff) CRUSHED this connection and with it the last 4 brilliant seasons of the show itself. When I was watching Chuck, I thought to myself I could get myself the complete DVD package where you can re-watch the seasons with your loved ones again after some time to enjoy the beautiful moments of Sarah and Chuck and smile through it. Because Chuck is a series which deserved a happy ending and should have had the ending of season 4 where they got married. This ending just crushed all the subtle moments of the show in an instant.
