 The best new show of the year September 11, 2007
7 out of 14 found this review helpful
Engaging characters, hilarious comedy, cool action... This is definitely the best new show on TV, and maybe just the best show on TV. In a phrase: fun to watch.
Fantastic First Episode September 11, 2007
6 out of 8 found this review helpful
Chuck is a very likable character and this first episode was not only funny and action packed, but it also gave you a good grasp of all the characters in the show. At the end credits I only wanted more. I can't wait for the season to start.
Great Action and good humour! September 10, 2007

There was great character development right from the start. The relationships aren't too forced or cliche. The photography is up to the caliper of a major motion picture, filled with lots of great action sequences. The dialogue between Chuck and his best friend/ co-worker is outright hilarious. The music was fitting... they even ended with a song from indie synth-Pop darling "Joy Electric". To be honest, there wasn't much that I didn't like about this show. There is a lot to work with here. While there will be the ongoing storyline to carry you week to week, they can easily have episodic plots that begin and end within an hour. This is great, since we are all too weary to start another serial drama at this point! Provided it gets a good fan base as a lead in to NBC's "Heroes", I think this show will do very well.
Wow........ September 11, 2007

I have not seen a pilot episode this good in a VERY long time! Everyone is already in character and the show was great. It is funny and action packed. I hope they can keep the story line fresh and as entertaining as this episode. My wife and I both really enjoyed this on the Tivo!
EDIT: 2/9/8 - Wow, what a great season. We cannot wait for it to return. All my 35ish IT working friends love it.....
 Would be much better with closed captions September 22, 2008
5 out of 9 found this review helpful
Chuck is a likeable enough hero and a likeable enough series. And while I love NBC giving this premiere episode up for free, I'd be a lot happier if my wife, who's deaf, could have enjoyed it, too. At this point, there's no reason -- none at all -- that online players can't include the closed caption feed, which is part of every new television broadcast. There are anywhere from 30 to 50 million people in the country with hearing loss, plus another 30 million people who use captions occasionally (those learning English, those watching at work, or in noisy environments). I have a big problem with Amazon's decision not to bother to include captions. It's just a case of laziness on management's point. And I object.
