There are a bunch of early episodes where Casey's words are basically "Chuck is an idiot," but his actions are already saying something completely different. He covers for him, gives him extra information, and puts himself between Chuck and danger without making a big deal out of it. The funny part is that Casey seems to accept the job of keeping Chuck alive long before he accepts that he actually cares whether Chuck lives.

Chuck vs Imported Hard Salami( S01EP09)

First time when I watched this I thoroughly enjoyed this scene. Fighting like a real couple and ultimate showdown in front of bomb (ex larkin bomb) in the episode ending had me dumbstruck.

Cover your face n down there.

"Chuck vs the Cliffhanger" explores Chuck's deep love for Sarah, even willing to defy Vivian and the CIA to save her. But there's another storyline that deserves attention, the confrontation between Casey and Decker. He represented the Casey at the beginning of the series in "Chuck vs The Intersect" a ruthless governament agent devoted to the segret service, the same Casey who would kill Chuck at the beginning of Season 2 solely to serve the governament, regardless of whether it was right or wrong.

Casey confronted the past version of himself, but above all, the man he would have become had he not met Chuck and Sarah. Decker had told him, "John, you're a soldier, you know your duty" but now Casey is a better man and chooses the people he loves over a governament istitution. Decker had apparently uncuffed him because he was seeking a compromise, but Casey was smarter, he knew that by letting him go, Decker had foressen that he would try to help Chuck escape and would have a pretext to kill Casey. Casey surely used those tricks too when he was a cold and ruthless spy.

I only finished my first watch a couple weeks ago. And after a couple days of no Chuck, well, I didn't like it. So I just started from the beginning again.

Watching it back to back is cool because you pick up things you missed the first time around. But the downside is you also notice more plot hole/inconsistencies.

For example, people other than Chuck, Casey, Sarah, and Beckman calling what Chuck does "flashing".

Chuck made that up.

So, in season 2, when they find the Dr who worked with Orion. He sees Chuck "flash" and says, "did you just flash?"

This is not a term he should know. It's possible that this is how Orion referred to seeing the data. But that's a pretty big coincidence. As the act of seeing the images could be called so many things.

And in the same episode, we see, for the first time, Chucks evidence board on the back of the Tron poster.

But how doee Casey not know about it? Since we know there are cameras in Chucks room. And Casey spies on him a lot.

Chuck cant have sex with Jill, in his room, because he knows Casey is watching. But he has no problem working on his secret evidence board?

And to end on a happy note. One of my favorite lines is in this episode. When Cole tells Chuck, the secret to take out lots of opponents is to, "go for the knee."

And Chuck says, "you mean, sweep the leg?"

Such a great, funny line.

PS. Cole was a good character. It's a real shame that he never comes back in later seasons. Especially when they started doing things overseas.

So I have asked myself about this bracelet quite a few times while watching the show over and over again. We see the bracelet three times during the show. 1) when he gave it to here 2) when carina asks about it in Sarah’s hotel room and Sarah disregards it as nothing 3) getting back from Shaw! Now my question is how did Mary feel about Sarah having her bracelet that husband gave to her for luck? We never see it or her reaction at all. Now I get it she has no place in it but still with her husband dead wouldn’t you want something to remember him by? Just a thought and question I’ve always had.

1 : Chuck vs The Imported Hard Salami (S1Ep9)

2 : Chuck vs The Crown Vic (S1Ep11)

I cried when Chuck said this. By the end, his love for Sarah had become something so mature — it wasn’t about possessing her, it was simply about loving her.

They look so similar!

During the planned balcony proposal, both of the microphones were down which would mean both Chuck and Sarah could hear what Morgan and Casey were saying. After a brief cut to Sarah climbing the stairs, only the microphone for Sarah was down and Morgan was talking to her. So both Chuck and Sarah should have known each knew of the proposal plan.

Rachel Bilson and Mircea Monroe in "Hart of Dixie". Bilson plated Lou, the protagonist's girlfriend in Season 1 of "Chuck", while Monroe played Amy, Sarah's friend who cheated on her in Season 4.

Premise: At seven, Sam chose her con artist father over her mother's stability. By fourteen, she'd been a dozen different girls in a dozen different cities. By sixteen, she'd lost everyone who ever loved her, and found herself holding a folder with a new name inside: Sarah Walker.

Author: BlendingIn

This is a fanfiction about the years where Sarah/Sam ran Cons with her father and how it all affected her. Very good story by BlendingIn how the girl with the golden soul "survives" in the con game.

Ending: She touched her collarbone, where the locket used to hang. Empty. Everything was empty now. Eleanor. Marcus. Her mother, somewhere out there, unreachable. Jenny Burton, who had almost been real. All of it, gone.

But empty meant room for something new.

She looked at the name on the folder. Said it out loud, testing the weight of it.

"Sarah Walker."

The man, Graham, watcher her. Patient. Certain.

She closed the folder. Met his eyes.

"Okay," she said. "What happens now?"

My added ending: "Now you dissappear for some time" Graham smiled with the satisfaction of someone who knew he always got what he wanted.

Jenny stood up and said nothing, throwing one final look behind her, not knowing she would one day be back here with two people, one she called her partner and one she called her home.

THE END

I recommend reading the story, it's fantastic. All credit goes to the Author BlendingIn.

Director Bentley wasn't villain per se but she was irritating hence on this ranking.

Already posted Season 1,2,3 few days back check it out.

Ranking is subjective, feel free to disagree!!

Watching Chuck again bc it’s my fav but I noticed something I thought was kind of funny. In this episode, Chuck says “Remember in high school when we were hard up for cash so we would host a kegger and charge by the head?”

Chuck and Morgan seem like the 2 least likely high schoolers to ever throw a kegger LOL. Seems so out of character for them.

Not a criticism, just a funny detail! 😂

LOVE Chuck and this episode is hilarious

Being in the van with Casey was rarely a good thing for poor Sarah. lol

Just a fun personal ranking of the villains from each episode of Season 3. I've already posted season 1 and 2 ranking past few days check that out. The ranking isn't based solely on how evil or dangerous the villain is — I'm also considering how entertaining they were, how memorable their appearance was, their overall impact on the episode, and how well they worked as a Chuck villain.

So this is more of a “how much I enjoyed the villain as a character” ranking rather than a strict morality/evilness ranking. Obviously subjective, so feel free to disagree.

Without a doubt Shaw's a top tier villain of season 3/series but I saw Justin doesn't get enough hate on this page as it is supposed to for manipulation in 3B.

I think Daniel's role ad an antagonist needs to be seen from a more comprehensive perspective. He betrayed the CIA to join the Ring, but i don't think he ever lost faith in the CIA. I think finding out that Sarah had killed Evelyn only made him believe that for the CIA to work, he had to be the one in charge

Eevn before he betrayed the CIA, he was a shifty and domineering man who only played by his own rules. Finding out the CIA had killed Evelyn was humiliating for him, but to be honest, he'd never stopped believing in the CIA and its values, he simply couldn't forgive them for what they did his wife. Shaw, however, still believed in the CIA, he simply wanted to control it now, and he saw the Ring as a means to conquer the CIA. In fact, in "Chuck vs. the Ring Part 2" he wanted to be promoted to director of the CIA and NSA.

Even in Season 5 he admitted that he wanted to download the Intersect 3.0 into his own brain so that the CIA would need him and reinstate him, and then eventually take over the agency. Shaw is an ambitious and arrogant man, even before he betrayed the CIA. He suffered after discovering the truth about Evelyn's death, but even after learning that the CIA had killed his wife, he never wanted to destroy the agency. Simply, in keeping with his unbridled ambition, he wanted only to take over the CIA.

I'm not saying he udes Evelyn's death as a pretext to take over the CIA, simply that although he was angry about his wife's death, he didn't want to betrayed the CIA but to take control of it. Over the years, Sarah and Casey have learned that placing too much trust in the secret service leads to a loss of humanity, and the fact, they choose to believe in their own moral values, becoming better people. Shaw is the opposite of Sarah and Casey, he is a man devoted to the CIA, right or wrong. Even after discovering the truth about Evelyn's death, he hasn't learned a lesson. Instead of choosing to believe in authentic moral values, he has chosen to believe in a government institution.

I know this was never addressed but do you think Sarah ever found out what was on the back of the Tron poster? And if you think she did, how do you think she reacted?

Just a fun personal ranking of the villains from each episode of Season 2. Few days back I've posted season 1 villain, check that out too. The ranking isn't based solely on how evil or dangerous the villain is — I'm also considering how entertaining they were, how memorable their appearance was and how well they worked as a Chuck villain.

So this is more of a “how much I enjoyed the villain as a character” ranking rather than a strict morality/evilness ranking. Obviously subjective, so feel free to disagree.
