The Intersect

Well played!

For those of you keeping score at home, I did not actively hate Sarah this week. She had faith in Chuck, she did her job well, and she still managed to serve her primary purpose as eyecandy for the folks who are so inclined. So, we know it can be done, writers. You’ve proven [...]

Clarification

Yes, the article I linked in my last post was… pretty vile, in terms of sexist content. I was perhaps too polite in saying it was “liberally peppered with misogyny.” The guy unscrewed the lid and poured in the whole tin. I was trying to be diplomatic and let you take from it what you [...]

Mad Awesome

If you missed Ryan McPartlin on tonight’s Mad Men, (like I did, mainly because I don’t watch it) here is the repeat schedule from AMC. There’s a screenshot after the jump, but I’m warning you. He looks as good in a suit as he does out of one.

Chuck versus… female empowerment?

There’s a very interesting article here at a blog called “Whiskey’s Place”, which discusses the effects of female empowerment on television, based on Chuck. It compares Chuck with Ralph from the series Greatest American Hero, and one of this blogger’s personal favorite television schmucks, Xander from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. While it makes some very [...]

Dedication!

E! News is reporting that Zachary Levi was “briefly hospitalized” this week for a minor head injury. He ducked under a piece of the set (undoubtedly made considerably more dangerous by the gnawing of his costars) while running to shoot a scene and whacked his head on a camera, breaking the skin and probably embarrassing [...]

Agent Orange Orange

It would be really suspicious to close down the Double O (yes, there’s even a Bond reference in the yogurt shop’s nickname) every time Sarah has to leave on super-sekrit spy bizness, so arguably there must be other Orange Orange employees, right? Unless she just leaves the door open and lets people take what they [...]

Casting spoiler alert!

Once NBC gets on a roll, they just can’t stop.

This is why I love disguises.

Seriously? We need more episodes with wacky disguises. I laughed myself sick when my friend D (known ’round The Intersect as Goddessdster) linked me to the spoiler pics from 2.06 on IO9. You can see more here at the ChuckTV.net gallery for 2.06. After the jump, you can see the only thing I could think [...]

Bryce Larkin, Criminal Mastermind?

From BuddyTV: Chuck’s Matthew Bomer (Bryce Larkin) has just recieved a go for his USA series, White Collar, in which he will play Neal Caffrey, a charming (big surprise there) criminal mastermind who goes to work for the feds in order to avoid imprisonment, opposite Tim DeKay’s FBI agent, Peter Stokes.
Luckily, because USA is owned [...]

Poor Rebecca-Katie-Jenny-Sarah.

It’s no freakin’ wonder she can’t figure out who she is and what she wants; she’s so inconsistently-written that even within the context of a single episode, her backstory can’t decide what to be.
I was just re-watching Chuck vs. the Cougars with my sister, who was working when it aired, and I noticed a few [...]
