    I really enjoyed the finale for this. I don't generally get attached to a show and care that it's done, but I'm really going to miss this one. Especially with scenes like the belly dancing one going away.

    Spoiler: show
    I'm actually okay with not knowing whether or not she gets all, or even any of her memories back. Like they said in the episode, he made her fall in love him with before. Clearly she was starting to remember things, like in the Weinerlicious. Would like to know what eventually happens, but I can deal.


    Someone needs to hurry up and get Yvonne Strahovski into another role though, god damn.

    Actually enjoyed the ending being left open. Guess I'm that way though, Inception, Eternal Sunshine, and Vanilla Sky are all some of my favorite movies so nice to see a long running series dare to do it.

    Liked the finale overall. Sad to see the show go, it has provided many great moments.

    Spoiler: show
    While the story with Sarah losing her memories was fine, I felt it had to be rushed to fit into the end of the show. It would've been better had it happened about midseason and she was able to get her memories back by the last couple episodes. I think she will regain them from that ending though.

    Pretty much how I feel. If this was a mid-season story arc, or used instead of the Morgansect.. it would have been perfectly fine because the last couple of episodes could have been used to refill her memories. But since it was used as the series' final moments.. ugh.

    Now honestly, and much like a lot of "Chuck" fans out there, I'm not silly enough to not think it wasn't a happy ending, and that Sarah will either get her memories back slowly like Morgan got his, or she'll just fall in love with Chuck all over again, but I guess I'm in that camp that just wanted a line after their kiss, something to signify that she was remembering him. D: That's all I really wanted.

    That and I'm just not a huge fan of bittersweet endings. Haha. Ah well, I'm just a sap. I'm going to miss this show, though Sarah Bellydancer Walker Bartowski will live on in my signature!

    Not a fan of the bittersweet ending. I completely agree that they should have started this arc well ahead of where the did. Morgansect went on far too long and it felt like it was just there to setup more "character development" for both Morgan and Casey. Overall the last few episodes were good, and I completely enjoyed the final two up until the very end.

    Yeah. I loved both episodes. The drama. The tension. The comedy (in 5.13.. especially with Chuck shooting down Casey's helicopter with his own gun, rofl) but the last couple minutes.. I just wish we could have seen a scene post-kiss to show Sarah remembering, albeit slowly.

    After five awesome years I am sad to see the show go out on such a weak note. The last few episodes definitely felt rushed. The whole memory arc could have been the primary story throughout the season culminating in Sarah remembering everything for the finale. Not a fan of the bitter sweet ending at all. Still, it was an awesome ride. Now if only they could find some way to bring both Zachary Levi and Yvonne onto Castle with the star of my last favorite cancelled show Nathan mother fucking Fillion!

    When I saw Jacob, I was hoping he would touch them all and bring em to the island for a spin off.

    Dunno, I'm good with the ending. Like it leaves things up to the imagination. Would I have liked a happy ending? Probably. But this is more realistic. And the whole thing sets them up for a continuation if the chance ever permits. Chuck still has the intersect, Becman said if they ever want to come back they can, and Chuck and Sarah story still lives on, much like life.


    Great finale, reminded me of why I've watched for the past 5 years, and didn't disappoint.

    Spoiler: show
    At the final kiss I was expecting Sarah to have a flashlike vision of all her time with Chuck to send us out lol

    In regards to the flash of a memory, that's actually what I wanted. I wanted maybe.. 15-30 seconds extra post-kiss so she could remember *something*.. maybe quote a line, and have Chuck smile then kiss her again, and THEN wrap it there with the fade to black. That would have been much more satisfying to me.

    Still, I can't complain too much about it. The show was fantastic. A shame to see it go.

    I thought the finale was good. It was bittersweet and I love bittersweet endings. If it had ended with a single kiss sparking back all her memories I would have been pissed, but with Chuck's persistence and Serah giving him a fair shot (because she knows they had something, otherwise she wouldn't be where she was and let Chuck kiss her) gives a lot of hope for their future.

    As for wanting a hint of memory, I feel like they were hinting at Serah's memory getting recovered during the entire finale. The montage they had with Chuck retelling Serah their story obviously meant more to Serah than it did to us, otherwise she wouldn't be tearing up or laughing while listening. I feel like that was a moment of hope for them both, and the kiss sort of just sealed the deal. Perhaps that was the wrong order to take for Chuck, but I feel like it worked a lot better this way and definitely feels less cheesy. Though it is Chuck, some cheese is perfectly acceptable.

    It felt very rushed, and I feel like Chuck getting the intersect back is just how a season finale should be, not really a series finale. I feel like if they planned to continue on Chuck, it would be with Serah's recovering memory rather than a quick fix. But I was surprised and honestly proud of Chuck for not taking the easy, super convenient way out like it does for most situations. The pacing was terrible, but I loved the content of the series and I will be terribly sad to see it go.


    It was a good run Chuck. I'm glad it ended before shit got tiresome.

    I agree about it ending before it was driven too far into the ground. Ratings had slipped, but it went out with a bang for a Friday night show.

    Spoiler: show
    I agree with a lot of what you said, and yeah.. I know they'd hinted at her memory coming back (Weinerlicious, the virus, etc) but I suppose I was a little greedy and just wanted a momentary spark after the kiss to see her face.. maybe remember a past kiss, and then Chuck's all excited, and they kiss again to close it out. A couple days afterward, though.. and I've come to terms with it. I'm not a fan of bittersweet endings, but I'm not mad at it anymore, Haha.

    Definitely rushed, though. There was a lot of spy-related crap (much like past episodes) that could have been bypassed all together.. and yet again, more Intersect rewriting in terms of it's mythology, but what can you do? These writers tend to erase their whiteboards and not keep track of important plot points, Lol. Still.. I'm glad they didn't go the 'intersect glasses giving her memory back' route and yeah.. Chuck's persistence along with Sarah's knowledge of them being in love will be plenty enough for them to travel that path together to get her memories back.

    Was perfectly happy with the ending, sad to see it go, but okay with it. I was half expecting the kiss to give her a flash though, or have a scene with one of them leaving the house they wanted. I thought the Jeffster song with the symphony was AWESOME. Overall the last ep (or hour, whatever) was everything I have come to love, expect, and will miss from Chuck.

    Finally watched the last episode. Definitely sad to see it go but glad they gave a pretty decent ending. See HIMYM it can be done without dragging it out!

    FFFF

    See you Chuck, Sarah, John, Morgan. You guys provided years of entertainment and I salute you for it.

    Late to the party good sir!

    And they did stretch it out a little. Remember how it was supposed to be canceled like.. three seasons in a row? Glad they did get a decent ending. I've finally come to terms with it, though. It still stinks they ended like that.. but they ended with a lot of hope at least.

    And HIMYM.. last two episodes have been pretty great.

    Yeah, movie would be great, but I don't think there's even a slim chance we get that and even if we do, it'd probably be an online production
