;D New thread for Adam's new show Chuck.
Did anyone see it last night? What did you think?
Adam looked great-loved the suit. And is it me, or does he look younger in this role than the last few I've seen him in?
The green shirt? Not so flattering. Not his color at all...
The show was good. Not great, but it does have potential. The time slot is great-there should be a boost from the Heroes fans waiting on their show to start.

media.www.commonwealthtimes.com/media/storage/paper634/news/2007/10/22/Spectrum/The-Four.Best.Tv.Shows.Youre.Not.Watching-3047218.shtmlCHUCK Mondays, NBC, 8 p.m. Move over, Jim Halpert, because Chuck Bartowski is my new TV boyfriend. "Chuck" is what we get when a relationship writer dabbles into spy action. We get a lovable, unsuspecting geek as the lead character and two dangerous spies tossed in for good measure. Chuck Bartowski, a member of the Nerd Herd at Buy More (aka Best Buy), receives an e-mail from his old college roommate-turned-spy, laden with national secrets. Chuck then has to work with two government agents to help save the world - no easy task when one of the agents is played by Adam Baldwin (in his next major tough-guy role after "Firefly"). It's easy to see the purpose the supporting characters serve, especially after watching modern dramatic spy shows like "Alias" or "24." Chuck's sister Ellie is his emotional support, his friend Morgan is his wacky sidekick, and Sarah is the frighteningly skilled woman who just might be Chuck's dream girl. But because "Chuck" is a comedy, it's easier to look past these caricatures. You don't have to believe them. The show reportedly has received an order for three more additional scripts, which might lead to a full-season order. Score one for Team Bartowski! Go ADAM! Get that full season order! And the renewal for next year!

regulus2.azstarnet.com/blogs/remotecontrolled/6543/Going green at NBC Universal I thought GE Universal’s Green Is Universal Week was going to reek of desperation and preachiness, but it’s actually been fun and not too obtrusive into my favorite NBC shows. In case you haven’t been tuning into NBC or GE’s other channels—Bravo, Telemundo, USA or the SciFi Channel among them—you are missing out on the parent company’s attempts to make us more aware of the things we can do to slow down global warming. Many of the shows are going out of their ways to make issues such as recycling and tree planting part of the storyline. Others, like “Heroes,” are already trying to save the world, so they’re covered. Take “Deal or No Deal,” for example. This week, the models wore dressed made from recycled parachutes. I can’t wait to see how they look. The integrated green stories will be prevalent in tonight’s episodes. In “My Name Is Earl,” Earl has to make a skit that makes an environmentally-friendly message. On “The Office,” Ryan goes green (literally) with a corporate retreat in the wilderness. Probably will mention something about saving trees and his big plans to make the paper company go paperless. And on “30 Rock,” David Schwimmer (pictured) and Al Gore stop by to create eco-friendly skits on “The Girlie Show,” but of course things get out of hand. I saw a clip, and I don’t want to spoil it for you, but Schwimmer is high-lair-ee-us. (does anyone else hear the shades of Jayne in that? -tracy)Besides the actual episodes airing this week, NBC has been doing some pretty interesting commercials, which many people won’t see because they speed through them on their DVRs. While blazing through the commercials during “Chuck” on Monday, I noticed something “Chuck”-related embedded in the commercials that were flying by. I stopped and saw Josh Gomez and Adam Baldwin talk about ways to save the environment, but they did it as their characters, Morgan and John Casey. Morgan said it’s better to ride a “human-powered vehicle,” which Casey quipped is called “a bike.” It was slightly funnier than the actual comedy in the episode, but oh well.The actual episode of “Chuck” included a Stanford student trying to get Casey to plant a Stanford Tree (the school’s mascot is a tree—or a color, depending on who you talk to), and the shirts worn at the Buy More are hideously green that I thought my TV’s tuner was off-kilter.
