Interesting read which talks about a few TV critics' predictions on who will have shot in grabbing an SAG award nomination, HERE, not much related to the show's news...but there is a sentence in there:

^ Cool I really hope Zach wins!

So, Tricia Helfer from BG is coming to Chuck...



Yvonne and her in an episode? My poor little heart may not survive it...

I also watch Burn Notice so its cool to see shes coming for an episode.

Cool, Chuck really has just been getting all the best guest stars!

oooh, I bet the writers are going to have fun w/ Tricia Heifer. Wonder how many BG references the will slip in? be nice to tap into the BG fanbase too!

Somebody (I bet Casey) is going to yell 'FRAK' at some point...

^I can definitley see that

Hi:
Can anyone tell me who makes those very cool mugs that Chuck carries into the hotel room to Kim? I love the handles! Thank you! Cj

My guy and I both think the coffee cups at the hotel were really distinctive and I wondered where I could find them as a Christmas gift.

^I have actually used those mugs before in a hotel in Argentina... unfortunatley I don't know where to find them... my guess would be a Crate & Barrel or a place similiar to that.

I found the mugs - or at least something extremely similar --> http://www.weddingthings.com/product/tea_a...ets_tea_cup_set

and they are a steal too!

^ Those mugs were pretty sweet.

Dunno if this is posted elsewhere, but a Chuck episode 8 review on io9:

http://io9.com/5098708/chucks-thanksgiving-episode-miracle

Hello i'am MKA , I'm French so I create a cover DVD for future DVD release of "chuck" and I would like to know if there was a possibility that NBC take my jacket dvd officially. As I am French, the text of the DVD covers and French so sorry



for the real size jacket, contacted me on my Hotmail address: mika89300@hotmail.fr

I love it! My only problem is that not enough Yvonne on the front cover, i would like to see her more than Chuck, but beside this , it's a really nice and interesting design

Chuck episode: Chuck vs. the Gravitron
The coffee cups are white and seen in the first 5-10 mins of the episode and look like they are rolled and have a low spot for a thumb rest. I want one!

thanks!

Yeah, you can never get enough Yvonne.

Wow, I love it! Personally, I think it's so much better than the season one design! I hope they use it

they are very cute!

Wow, those mugs were really a hit

Thats a really cool cover. Great work!

If anyone is still curious, the authentic coffee cups are made by "Villeroy & Boch".
They're part of the "new wave" collection. My wife and I have the entree dinner plates. They're "awesome". And often on sale for <$20 at Macy's.
In fact they're on sale RIGHT now for ~ $12

Go Charah

I, too, am thankful for Zach and Yvonne (mostly Zach )

I am thankful for the entire Chuck cast and the writing staff. But I'm very very thankful for Yvonne

im lookin to watch season 1 of chuck episode 8-chuck vs. the truth

every website ive looked at has a broken link of that episode or it just doesnt exist.
i really want to see that eppy! please help!! and ive ordered my season 1 dvd set but it wont be coming until the end of decemeber!! please help me!!!

thanks!

I don't think you can watch that episode online legally anywhere.
If you order the dvd set from Amazon today, you can have it in 2-3 days

Or you can buy it at any Best Buy or Circuit City.

There are three episodes up at NBC.com...go to this link:

http://www.nbc.com/Chuck/video/categories/season-1/28663/

The iTunes store has both season 1 and season 2 episodes for sale individually for $1.99. You can download it and have it immediately. The also offer a subscription for season 2 episodes so you can download those as soon as they are available - usually the Tues. after the air date, but sometimes as late as Weds.

thanks-i found a link that was workin

but i still cant wait for my dvd set! im gonna go crazy with it!!
maybe i should have a chuck party??

^ Ain't no party like a Chuck party.

thats right!!!

I have a question regarding the Chuck season 1 Blu-Ray set:

What are the audio options on it? Will it support regular Dolby Digital or DTS out, or will it only have Dolby HD and DTS HD soundtracks?

Video* | 1080p High Definition 16x9 1.78:1
Audio* | Dolby Digital: English 5.1, French 2.0, German 2.0
Subtitles | English, French, Espanol, Danish, Dutch, Norwegian & Portuges

No mention of any Audio HD tracks.. Hope this helps

i have a question:

if i buy a blu ray player, will it support my regular dvds?? i wanted to buy season 1 dvd of chuck, but most of the stores that sell em only have them in blue ray, so im just thinkin of getting a blu ray player altogether. does anyone know where i can possibly get an external blu ray for my laptop (if that is even possible? hehe)

^^this just goes to show how obsessed i am with the show

My girlfriend loved the shirt Sarah wears at the beginning of the Sensei episode that is long sleeved and has butterflies on the back that look like a spinal column. Anyone know who makes it/where to get it?

Blu-Ray players will support your regular DVDs and there are both internal and external blu-ray players available. If your a gamer, I would suggest considering a PS3 to get the best of both worlds.

Scoop at ausiello

Anna and another question answered by Josh himself.

That is all.

I read that Ausiello scoop. It looks like we have another 'trilogy' coming up for sweeps. You can click on the link for yourselves to check it out. It's EW so I think it's safe to post.

http://ausiellofiles.ew.com/2008/12/ask-ausiello-sp.html

After the Jill crap, the word "trilogy" makes me a little nervous right now.

Just thought I'd mention that Ausiello's scoop lets a major spoiler out of the bag. Just FYI for people who might want to stay surprised about upcoming episodes.

That's why I didn't link it. If you are referred to Ausiello or Kristin then it would be mega spoilery. If you want the scoop find it yourself .

I would say that Chuck has his trilogy of pain so it must be someone else's !

Well here's NBC mid season schedule via TVGuide

http://www.tvguide.com/News/NBC-Midseason-...le-1000519.aspx

Just days after unveiling "Phase 1" of its plan — which in part brought back Friday Night Lights and set a start date for Nigel Lythgoe's Superstars of Dance — NBC has followed through with the continuation of its midseason tweaking.

Of most immediate important to many of you, I imagine, is the return date — Feb. 2 — for Medium, which will air Mondays at 10 pm/ET. There, it will cap a night featuring fresh episodes of Chuck (which returns with a 3-D episode) and Heroes (which will be launching its new "Fugitives" volume).

The other headline here is an hour-long episode of The Office airing after NBC's Feb. 1 broadcast of Super Bowl XLIII.

Elsewhere....

* Knight Rider's revamp won't get much of a showcase, as the series has been targeted for an early, Feb. 25 finale. The inheritor of its Wednesdays-at-8 slot is TBD. Life returns Feb. 4 with fresh fare.

* Turning to Thursdays, ER will air a two-hour series finale on March 12, starting at 9 pm. The following week, Kings — billed as "a contemporary retelling of the tale of David and Goliath" and starring Ian McShane, Chris Egan and Susanna Thompson — makes its debut.

* Celebrity Apprentice returns for a second season on March 1, bigger and better bigger than ever. How so? The long-running series will air two-hour episodes every Sunday, in part to give the boardroom antics greater play, but also (by some accounts) to save the Peacock some green.

* Lastly, XIII, a miniseries starring Val Kilmer and Stephen Dorff, will air on consecutive Sundays, Feb. 8 and 15. The premise: Three months after the country's first female president is assassinated, a wounded man is found in forest with no memory of his identity. And ... cue the sprawling conspiracy/manhunt.

The premieres for "The Untitled Amy Poehler Project" and The Philanthropist (starring Rome's James Purefoy) will be announced at a future date, says NBC; no word on what happened to Merlin.

I like Medium taking the 10pm slot on Mondays. I watch that show, and there's a reason why it averaged over 10 million last season. The Emmy and Golden Globe people love Patricia Arquette (been nominated Best Lead Actress each year the show has been on). Hopefully it still has ratings power and hopefully it can lift the whole night.
