Chuck (2007)
Best new show this season
This show is one of the most entertaining new shows to come this season. It's funny, dramatic, plenty of action, and a solid series-wide story arc. The characters are all well done so far, including (spoiler) Chuck's college "buddy" Bryce Larkin. I haven't seen Yvonne Strahovski before, but she's perfect as the attractive agent-with-issues Sarah. And Adam Baldwin, yet again, does a fantastic job with his character, John Casay. Zachary Levi, as Chuck, is the perfect slacker-hero, who after a series of unfortunate events in college, tried to live out his life in a depressing state (low-end job, living with his sister and her boyfriend), but starts to take up the mantle of Hero that has been thrust upon him. And finally Morgan (Joshua Gomez) at first seemed like a poor-man's Seth Green, but gradually (thanks to good writers, or whoever) morphed into his own character with his own story. The rest of the supporting cast is acceptable, with a couple of great lines thrown in per episode. Overall, the cast is great! The first few shows were great (episode 1) or just OK, but the series picked up steam heading towards the last episode in December. I'm glad NBC picked it up for another season, and I hope the writing continues to be as good as the shows we've seen so far. Thank you NBC for another good show. Don't screw it up!
