Chuck

Chuck is a cutesy show about a regular Nerd Herd guy who works at a Buy More (play on Best Buy and Geek Squad) who is sent a secret program from his ex-roommate (who was a spy and who dies) that inputs all the data the government has into his brain. The CIA and NSA send two agents to get the program, but once they realize it is in Chuck's head, they protect him and in each episode so far he has seen something that sets of a subliminal recognition thing and save the planet from bad people and rogue spies.

Morgan, Chuck's best friend and co-worker at the Buy More, is a kooky funny loser-ish character, with heart. Chuck's sister dates a guy- nicknamed Captain Awesome... and now you're pretty up to speed.

In this week's episode, Chuck has just missed out on a promotion (because he was busy doing spy stuff) and now he is assigned a case where a CIA asset has gone missing- and the asset turns out to be a professor of Chuck's from Stanford. Unfortunately, Chuck has a personal bad history with the professor (he kicked Chuck out of school back in the day) and Chuck doesn't want to be involved.

The show is sometimes slow moving, but has a surprisingly good soundtrack! Anyway, watch it, I don't have the patience to write what happens this week.
