Chuck: Chuck vs. the Seduction
(S02E02) “His liver must look like camouflage.” - Chuck Bartowski
As amusing as he is, I can’t say that I’m excited about Lester becoming a douchebag now that he is assistant manager. Haven’t we already seen this on shows like The Office? Of course, everyone still defers to Chuck on anything important, but a complete lack of discipline was what made the Buy More a great place to work, wasn’t it?
Did the producers copy my iPod when I wasn’t looking? Once again, Huey Lewis is the perfect musical choice.
I like the addition of the covert headquarters in the yogurt store. It makes debriefing a lot easier and, more importantly, gives the show more opportunities to show Yvonne Strahovski in that outfit.
I completely forgot about John Larroquette being added to the cast. His character is a perfect addition considering there has yet to be an “old school” spy on the show. Larroquette is really an amazing actor. He seems to have taken the characters of Dan Fielding and Carl Sack and combined them perfectly.
I managed to remember that Melinda Clarke was going to be on this episode (for some odd reason) but I could have done without the corny accent. In any event, Zach Levi is one of the luckiest bastards on television.
It seems the “Ass Man” title has been passed from Kramer to Big Mike. His line was one of the few times I laughed in this episode. It seemed to me that there was too much touchy-feely and not enough jokey, jokey. Additionally, the return of Bryce was just a bummer.
Just for the record, there is no 9000 Burbank Blvd. in the Los Angeles area.
