Least favorite Chuck character

I have to agree. I've never been a huge fan of too much makeup, but Anna is one step away from Tammi Fay Baker.
If I were to judge a character just by the actor, I'd have to add Chuck's dad. I never cared for Captain Quantum. While Bakula does great with the crazy guy routine, once he starts having to really act he falls apart. I mean, how sad is it when you are outclassed by Chevy Chase?
Even sadder, I not only didn't realize the Chuck theme song was from a Cake song, but it's from a CD I own!
That's also pretty sad because it's probably Cake's most popular song. It was on the radio all the time when it was released.Even sadder, I not only didn't realize the Chuck theme song was from a Cake song, but it's from a CD I own!
My least favorite character was definitely Bryce in the beginning, but I grew to at least respect what he was trying to do.
Emmett sucks. I love the actor, but the character is so annoying. He's the new, more awkward Harry Tang! If there is a new season, I honestly hope they steer away from the Buy More scene. With Morgan and Chuck both quitting their jobs, it seems like a good time to break, even though I do generally enjoy the Buy More cast.
They need to incorporate Jeffster somehow.
Each character is written strongly one episode or less strongly the next. Supporting characters aren't always needed. Just when you think one of them is starting to become lame, they get their own "moment" in an episode and really shine.
It's just whatever the current episode requires, storywise.
I think Jeff and Lester should go back to speaking less. Small doses of them have a much bigger (and funnier) effect than when they play entire scenes.

Really? I'd have thought that would've been "Never There" or "The Distance", although personally my favorite by them is "Daria".
Agree.
But Anna was the one character that really got neglected this season. I don't know if it was because Julia Ling had other commitments or what, but she was absent for such long stretches I thought they'd write her out eventually.
Jeffster are definitely best in small doses. See the "Mr. Roboto" thing from the finale and the bit where they blew the transformer with the gov't-property fireworks last week. I laughed out loud.
(They scamper in, pleased with themselves, high five)
EMMETT (to MORGAN): Fire them!

I'm not going to be the one to fuss at you about the lack of spoiler blocks in that last post of yours. But someone is. And that someone will be correct.

Umm, okay. Put me in jail. How long till I get out?
I didn't know it was a Cake song either until it popped up on the radio after the show was on the air. The Distance, Rock 'n' Roll Lifestyle, and Frank Sinatra got the most airplay in my neck of the woods.That's also pretty sad because it's probably Cake's most popular song.

Morgan and Bryce are the most disposable.
I'm another one who had no idea it was a Cake song. But I'm pretty oblivious to popular music anymore.

Well, maybe I'm crazy, but aside from "Never There," the Chuck theme is pretty much the only Cake song I had ever heard.
Same here, though I woudln't call Cake popular any more - which is probably why I never heard the song. A friend got me all of their CD's back in 2003 and I just now started listening to them.
I didn't know who either of the actors playing Awesome's parents were when they first appeared, so was kinda bleh about them. Now that I've finished season 2 of Babylon 5, Daddy Awesome is so much more... cool.

More or less what I think. Bryce, Jill and Roark are also on my list of least favorite characters.
Jeff and Lester should get their own sitcom.
In my case, I barely know that there's a band called Cake and sure, now that you mention it, "Never There" is similar to the Chuck theme so it makes sense that they're from the same band but till I read this thread, I hadn't even made the connection.
