This is not awesome.
Life continues to chew me up and spit me out, but this is something I could not be silent about. From Ausiello: (part of his TV death chart)
Chuck
Number of deaths: 1
Time frame: End of season
The scoop: It’ll be “shocking,” declares exec producer Josh Schwartz.
Assuming that we’re talking about a regular character and not a basically disposable character like Chuck’s dad, Bryce or Jill, I know already I’m not going to like this.
What I can tell you right now, sight unseen, is that if it’s Casey, Morgan, or Lester, I’ll give you a hell of a deal on the URL for this blog, and I might even throw in my s1 DVDs for free. As charming as Zachary Levi is as Chuck, it’s Adam Baldwin, Joshua Gomez and Vik Sahay that keep me tuning in from week to week in spite of the writers’ apparent inability to portray women as much of anything other than flighty, fickle, fetishized, or evil.
I’d also have a hard time sticking around if it turned out to be Ellie or Awesome, to be honest, but since the finale is supposed to feature their wedding, it sure would add to the shock value, wouldn’t it? I’d be disappointed if it was Jeff or Anna, but it wouldn’t make me question my loyalty to the Schwartz. So, speculation. Who do you think has a target painted on their forehead? Who do you hope it is/isn’t?
My guess is Bryce. I think I read somewhere that he will be in another episode this season… Perhaps the death itself won’t be that shocking, but some sort of revelation will come out because of that death or right before the death? I don’t know… I’m rambling now.
I really hope it’s not Ellie, Awesome, Anna, Morgan, Casey or Lester either.
It could be General Beckman, or maybe Big Mike.
As long as it isn’t Casey… I hope it’s Jill tough.
I think it’s General Beckman. She’s the main problem between Chuck & Sarah. Then Casey could take the General’s place. It has been hinted that a major character would be extra busy next season (if hopefully we have a 3rd season) . Casey would certainly fill in. The only thing the General does it give orders via the flat screen tv.
Well no, it’s Ted Roark finally as everyone might have noticed !
