Chuck is back!
No, not Chuck Norris. Or that scary murderous little doll. That’s Chucky! hehehe
I mean the computer geek turned secret agent Chuck Bartowski!
The TV show has just been given the go ahead by NBC for a 3rd season. The network is going to pick up 13 episodes of the series from producers Warner Bros.
There have been a lot of fan action to ensure the show’s return to airtime. A campaign called “Save Chuck” was launched. And it seemed every means possible was used by the group to appeal to the network executives. This included a move for fans to buy foot-long sandwiches at Subway, which is a series sponsor. What sets this apart from other “save our show” campaign was that everyone did their part. Even Chuck himself (Zachary Levi) joined in. Here is a video of Zachary leading people to a subway branch for the footlong campaign.
I myself love this show. Specially, Chuck’s designated body guard – cute and hot secret agent Sarah Walker (Yvonne Strahovski). Now if only buying subs here in Manila could have helped save the show, I’m sure I would have done so too. 
Unfortunately, news also states there would be some budget cuts on the production of the show. This includes reducing the number of appearances per episode for the show’s supporting cast. There are even rumors that one of the supporting cast would be taken off. The show is also expected to cut two of its staff writers.
It seems the effect of the crisis is still being felt hard by the industry.

I think what makes her really attractive is her portrayal of Sarah Walker, who doesn’t like a babe who’s willing to date a nerd? Drop dead gorgeous with a body to die for, who’s willing to see past a guys physical inadequacies as long as he is kind and loving, dang, too bad she’s only a character for a show. I do wonder if she’s really like that in real life? :p
And the sungki is really cute :p
