Vik Sahay interview in the Globe and Mail

The Globe and Mail’s R.M. Vaughan sat down recently with Vik Sahay to discuss his roles on Chuck and in Rainn Wilson’s new film, The Rocker, which opened in theaters on August 20th.

‘Chuck’ intends to come out swinging

Josh Schwartz talks to USA Today about sexing up Chuck, and this blogger is genuinely confused by the following quote:

Nerd Herd gets love in opening credits!

You should all read this interview from the Los Angeles Daily News (with Out in Hollywood’s Greg Hernandez) and take from it what you will, but the bit that stood out to me (and filled my fangirl heart with love for the Herd and its lead Nerd) was the following potentially spoilery chunk of text:

Completely unfounded rumor!

Also known as “OMG, I so wish.”
My best friend’s husband claims there are rumors of Joss Whedon stepping up to direct an episode of Chuck.  I’ve been able to find exactly zero references to this possibility, which could simply indicate weak Google-fu on my part, but I don’t care. I’m still salivating at the prospect. [...]
