I am a serious fan of genre fiction. I say this to distinguish myself from people who like Lost despite the science fiction or enjoy Buffy while despising horror. It’s not a value judgment; it’s a question of taste. For me, stories that come from a deep internal mythology speak more heartily and more truly […]
To say that being a loyal Chuck fan since I downloaded the first episode for free on ITUNES has paid off way bigger than I ever guessed it would is to underexpress to the extreme. Chuck has become something much bigger, grander and greater than I could have ever imagined. And it just keeps getting […]
Man, I picked a fine time to go on a mini-Chuck hiatus. The past three episodes have been the best of the series’ entire run. They’ve been game-changing awesomeness with more than enough goofy character stuff to satisfy all types of fans.

One of my closest friends always tells me that the thing he loves most about me is that I define “cool” in the complete opposite way from most people. The generally accepted truth is that “cool” means something or someone popular, aloof and a leader of the crowd; “Cool” is the ability to remain calm […]
For those of us who love all things Chuck-y, this was a pretty up and down episode. The plot went like this: hottie-accented-spy-guy from last week escapes (conveniently) from Fulcrum to come and make googoo eyes at Sarah while Chuck clings weakly to his self-respect, and ineptly saves Sarah and Casey from gun point, before […]
Your friend’s life is worth risking your own for. Family isn’t necessarily biological. Your best friend’s dream is your dream. Everyone deserves someone who cares about them “that much” (read: as much as Chuck cares about Morgan, Ellie and Sarah). … and, most importantly… “Partnership is Trust”– Captain Awesome and Jeffster
The titular Chuck, Tara’s sweetly understanding husband, a softspoken Dillon Panther. Time for another picture list.
