    The categorization is vague as DDL mod stated, but Chuck is an enjoyable show (and like Akiyama mentioned I pick Chuck over HIMYM every monday, and it kept me watching Heroes 2 seasons longer then I would have otherwise), though far and away not the best. I'd say Mad Men/Breaking Bad hold that distinction atm (from standpoint of writing and acting). Dantrag the issue w/ the shows you mentioned is you are comparing Chuck to procedurals, which Chuck is not. Sure it has the same flavor of the week stories week to week as they do but there is an overarching plan to seasons. Comparing Chuck to Burn Notice is like comparing The Wire to CSI or any other police procedural.

    I admit I've never ever watched Grey's Anatomy, but can these two shows even be put in the same ballpark?

    I refuse to watch it because it's a soap opera.

    Honestly, I have no idea, I don't watch house, and honestly, I try and be on the computer as much as possible when Grey's comes on. But I can say this, it's pretty ridiculous with some of the crap it pulls.

    The butchering of Gstaadt's pronunciation seriously detracted from proceedings.

    CG on the gondola was very very meh, but the overall point of the episode was pretty good. I like how the other agent actually died without Chuck reactivating the intersect instead of a typical 'reactivate and save the day'. Plus it opens the door for Sarah badassery.

    So, Chuck's mom PSP'ing him doesn't make much sense to me right now. His father never wanted him to have the Intersect and she said, "your father never wanted you to see this... I know now he was wrong" or something along those lines. So either there's something besides just wiping the Intersect that the PSP did or I'm super confused haha.

    Yeah, that made me think too. Her saying the 'your father never wanted you to see this' line confuses me. Sure his father never wanted him to have the intersect to begin with.. I think toward the end, he realized it was okay with him. Then his mom came in and wrecked shit when she PSP'd him (that still makes me laugh, btw).. so I dunno. I'm hoping we get answers to what that really did to him.

    Once he gets the intersect back, there will probably be some sort of added things from the PSPing.

    His PSP will be hacked, clearly, so he can play any games.

    God just when I forget how hot Summer Glau is she shows up and looks even hotter than the last time I saw her. She blows Sarah out of the water. And I do loves me some Sarah.

    Awesome episode tonight. I was about to go "NOOOO" as he was getting labotimized, but thank goodness they got there in time. Holy crap at the next ep, though. Can you say awkward? Also rofl @ the proposal plan. Good to see they're comfortable about that stuff.

    it's going to be lame if there's no side effects from being wiped. I was thinking that his most recent memories would be erased first, aka love for Sarah

    It's safe to say that if the whole Chuck is a sleeper agent arc actually took place I would be done with the show. As much as I love it, there's just certain points where there is no recovering from. I would say the same for a mindwipe/amnesia deal. To me that's basically jumping the shark and admitting you have nothing in this show aside from Chuck/Sarah lovefest.

    I just want a Casey/Morgan spin off.
