Chuck -2x22 -"Chuck vs. The Ring"-Discuss/Grade <SPOILERS>

O.

I finally figured it out. Chuck is a prequel to Dollhouse. They were sly, but it's obvious, however unfortunately, all things Dollhouse are irrevocably doomed and not meant for this world.

Chins up, Chuckwallas! NBC will have to renew the show because the rest of their lineup is instant cancellation city:

Videos of NBC's new cancellation fodder.

Every single one of them looks utterly generic. We've seen ALL those shows before! And then Leno comes on and makes fun of all the generic crap on TV - he could have used clips from NBC's lineup!

And when the entire lineup goes down in flames, we get Heroes S5 and Chuck S4.

Dear lord, 100 Questions was literally painful to watch. I mean, literally. The rest of the shows look like ripoffs of other shows too.

At the very least Chuck will be back as a midseason replacement given this tripe.

Wow, we're really setting the bar low these days.

According to Nikki Finke, the reason NBC hasn't announced Chuck's renewal is because they're trying to con their way out of picking up Legally Mad. If they dump Mad they have to pay a 2 million dollar fee to WB. Since Chuck is also produced by the WB, NBC wants to get a deal where they don't pay the 2 million, but renew Chuck instead.

^Yeah, I read that. Doesn't fill us fans with a lot of confidence, but I'm not going to complain if we get even a partial season 3. I'm glad Legally Mad sucked enough to spare us the axe.

"Star Trek" and finals has been a nice distraction while I wait for the final word.

Well the debut of Deal or No Deal in Chuck's spot last week didn't even pull half of what Chuck usually does. So that's a plus.

I seem to recall reading that Deal or No Deal was going away regardless of how it performed. Apparently this will give NBC plenty of ammo to continue on that path.

NBC sure does seem to be gambling on Jay Leno by giving him 5 hours of prime time every week. Sure, his show as it is now is cheap to make. But going prime time is a whole different matter entirely. He does well at 11:30 because older people are getting ready for bed and he will definitely put you to sleep. But at 10:00, people are still looking to be entertained and maybe catch the news or Jon Stewart at 11:00. I think Leno is going to bore people to death, and they are going to change the channel. I predict that the Jay Leno Show will be canceled no later than the Christmas break. I would say even earlier, but given Leno's long term connection to NBC and how cheap his show will be to make, that should buy him a little extra time.

Given all that as well as Chuck leaving the Buy More, Morgan moving to Hawaii, Elle and Awesome now married and likely to go on a honeymoon for some time, Chuck the show can easily be restarted with just the primary actors and a whole new setting. So, I am holding out hope. NBC is going to need to fill out their prime time schedule when Leno fails. So if Chuck isn't already renewed here in a few weeks, it will be brought back later this fall in time for a third season premiere episode in January.

Double post.

Very odd, considering I clicked the post quick reply button only once and went off to another tab while this forum took it's sweet time loading.

^^Fulcrum is monitoring replies....

 

[Guy Gardener]

Oh shit! It is THEY who control the vertical and the horizontal.

I'd like to see it for truth that Fulcrum was really the secret government of America until the seventies when Jimmy Carter personally lead a Navy Seal assault on their command and control bunker under the Statue of Liberty, posing summering judgement and leading the firing squad himself, finally after 198 years putting this disingenuous cabal of Freemasons standing of the face of the soul of the country, in their place, returning American back, into the hands of it's voting citizens...

Which poses questions like if America isn't what you think it is what is that you like about it that was never real?

 

[Corran Horn]

Hopefully we hear something soon.

Hopefully we hear something soon.

Well Legally Mad has been dropped, as well as Lost & Found being likely dropped too, if rumours were right then Chuck is a-go.

 

[Temis the Vorta]

GAH! Are they ever going to TELL US!!!!

 

[Michael Chris]

Apparently on the 19th...

 

[the Dagman]

Jon Stewart just appealed to NBC not to cancel Chuck on tonight's Daily Show!
