Chuck

Here in Southeast Asia, you can expect AXN to deliver some great shows. Another TV show gets in my to-watch-every-Monday-night list: Chuck (Zachary Levi, Yvonne Strahovski).

For those who haven't heard of this yet, well here's Mr. Wikipedia for you:

Chuck is an American action-comedy television program created by Josh Schwartz and Chris Fedak. The series is about an "average computer-whiz-next-door" who receives an encoded e-mail from an old college friend now working in the CIA; the message embeds the only remaining copy of the world's greatest spy secrets into Chuck's brain.

How's that for a gist? :)

Needless to say, if the fact that Chuck is now protected by a hot sexy bombshell of an agent who is undercover as his girlfriend does not make your head turn to watch this show, I don't know what will. :)

As can be expected, our nerdy hero is falling head over heels for the agent slash protector slash pretend-girlfriend. And so is her over him. I think they do make a good on-screen couple. Little wonder that this pair won the "Couple We Rooted For the Most" award in IGN Best of 2007.

Anyway, I was blown away by the number of Youtube videos users made for these two. Here are my favorite ones so far:


(Matt Kearney - Breathe In Breathe Out)



(Saving Abel - Sailed Away)

I guess I'll be watching the episodes again and get those memorable and quotable quotes. It's a shame that this season only has 13 episodes. Well, still they made a very good season and with the writer's guild strike over, I just can't wait for bigger and better Chuck Season 2!
