Chuck

1st season - 90% - I have to laugh at him, root for him in action, and wish him Sarah. Chuck is a total loser in many ways, but he never exceeds the point where I would roll my eyes and stop liking him. With every characteristic, from his love of computer games to his willingness to experiment and do the craziest things at the most inappropriate times, he got under my skin more and more. In addition, the overall potential of the series promises much more. 2nd season - 100% - This is not just about the appearance of more beautiful agents, surprising minor roles, or pop culture references. This is about Chuck+Sarah being a duo that I root for from beginning to end, Chuck+Morgan being a duo whose friendship often moves me, and Chuck+Casey being a duo that makes me laugh out loud with every dialogue. Moreover, the episodic plots become exotically interesting, and most importantly: the last five episodes are such a perfect action-adventure ride that it takes your breath away long after watching. Chuck is simply no longer just a snack, but a legitimate bomb. 3rd season - 100% - It has original action, easily surpasses sitcoms in humor, and in relationship-family matters, I still see Schwartz's producer signature of the better part of O.C. Chuck remains at the top of all the genres present. There are again long-lasting storylines where each main character gets more prominent space, and the supporting characters please with familiar faces (Daniel Shaw is fascinating in every scene thanks to Brandon Routh). I am still amazed. Not just at Zachary Levi's new and new grimaces, or the increasingly clever points of missions, but mainly at how the bar keeps getting raised higher and higher. 4th season - 90% - From a shy guy next door, he turned into an absolute certainty. The new shades in the background of the parental past are revealed naturally, and the worries á la Buy More are a welcome opportunity to breathe in and out. And I don't mind at all that the comedic spy has become a show about relationships where they occasionally go on missions. I still love both aspects, and this time the rating is a hundred not just because the episodic plots have slowed down a bit in pace and ideas. The whole story around Volkoff Industries and the respective characters more than makes up for it. The announced final season thus had the doors wide open for a triumphant conclusion. 5th season - 100% - The end within reach, the threat at its maximum, the lines still deadly. Chris Fedak and the other writers knew exactly what they were doing when they entrusted the Intersect with the right people. The farewell story unfolds over thirteen episodes, with everything it entails. With the final dose of beautiful women, heroic agents, brave deeds, and love like a beam. And once again, deadly Morgan's glosses, appropriate self-destructive mood, and Jeffster stand behind them. Right after the last episode, there can be nothing but a perfect score like it was stitched. And heartfelt. Goodbye, team Bartowski. (25.08.2009) (weniger) (mehr)
