That is a bummer about the cover.

I am both bummed and excited about the cover. I love both shows, but wanted Chuck to get the exposure since it is more on the bubble than Supernatural.
I still think the best alternative would be two covers, but have the cast of one show in character of the other. In other words, get Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki as Nerd Herders.

I think I will take a wait and see on this one. Depending on how the concept is handled it could be good or horrible (I am really stepping out on a limb on this one).
Also, thanks CB!

Are people interested in a Chuck versus the Crown Vic rewatch next Monday (12/13) and a Chuck versus Santa Claus rewatch on 12/20?

I am a fan of both episodes, so I would be up for it.

- Funny story linked over on ChuckTV.net:
:lolFOR THIS MAN, BEING CALLED AWESOME IS NO JOKE
Eugene-Springfield, meet Captain Awesome.
Not that the former Douglas Allen Smith Jr. is a newcomer to Lane County.
He was born here in 1983. He graduated from Willamette High School in 2002.
But he officially became Captain Awesome only last month, when a Lane County Circuit Court judge approved his name change petition.
And his new first name is no title, he made clear in a recent interview.
Hi! Im Captain, he said, making this story even more fun to write. Journalists refer to subjects by last name only on second and subsequent references. So, thats Awesome!
Any reader who like Awesome watches the television show Chuck will not be surprised to know how he chose his new moniker. It was, indeed, inspired by a character on the NBC action/drama series: Dr. Devon Captain Awesome Woodcomb.
I just thought it was really funny that Devons father always called him Captain Awesome because a poor nickname builds good character,? said the local Awesome, an out-of-work cabinet installer.
Awesome said he had to jump through an extra hoop to legally change his name. Most such requests are approved in informal ex-parte hearings with Lane County judges. In Awesomes case, however, the judge who considered his name change in that setting balked at granting it.
That judge whose name Awesome cannot remember and who is not identified in Awesomes court records questioned his seriousness. The judge also advised him to hire an attorney to represent him in a formal oral argument for the change.
But Awesome decided to go it alone. He felt confident after researching name change precedents at the University of Oregon Law School library.
He hadnt counted on Lane County Circuit Judge Douglas Mitchell hearing his case, however.
The first thing he said to me was that he thought Douglas was a perfectly honorable first name, said Awesome (nee Douglas Smith). I thought, Oh my goodness Im screwed.?
But Mitchell simply made him raise his right hand, swear that he wasnt changing his name for fraudulent reasons, and proclaimed him Captain Awesome.
Mitchell also allowed Awesome to change his official signature to a right-pointing arrow, a smiley face and a left-pointing arrow. The state Department of Motor Vehicles actually accepted the cheerful new signature. But alas, his bank refused to honor it, Awesome said.
They said it was too easily forgeable, he explained.

That, along with Bon Iver, and Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeroes have been my favorite new musicians I found from Chuck.

Hearing Bon Iver in Vs. The Colonel is made me finally go and get the album. Its such a perfect album to fall asleep to.

While I already listed me favorite music from Chuck, this is the best music usage in Chuck. Scene is incredible. Especially love the show where the elevator doors open behind Chuck, his father says "remember when I told you not to trust your handlers?", we see Sarah and Casey step out armed and ready to protect Chuck, and Papa B chimes back in with "maybe I was wrong". So great.
So yeah:
Best new music on Chuck - Frightened Rabbit
Best old music on Chuck - Huey Lewis and the News, baby!
Best music usage on Chuck - Glasvegas
Best Jeffster performance - Mr. Roboto
Though, my absolute favorite piece of Chuck music is "Luisa's Bones" by Crooked Fingers in Chuck Vs. The Dream Job. That montage, where Chuck really figures out his life, stands up for himself, and gets dressed to take down Roark was just perfect.
The music worked amazingly with the scene.
The scene with The National's Fake Empire in season two was also incredible.

My brain no work right now, but Chuck introduced my wife to whatever it was that played in "Chuck vs. the Colonel" where Chuck and Sarah make out. I am tired and cannot think, but whenever she plays that song at home I refer to it as the "Chuck and Sarah almost fuck" song.
Now that I think about it, it is Bon Iver.

So glad that they used this. Streamed the album many times from NPR Music over the summer.
One of my best friend's favorite artists are Chromeo and Santigold. The show happened to feature both in the same episode. I can't convince her to watch the show now though cause the first episodes she watched were 301 and 302 :lol
I'm kind of surprised that the producers were able to afford Lady Gaga this season.

Last episode was pretty good though a bit weird. I didn't know Timothy Dalton was such a great actor (seen him in Hot Fuzz).
Oh and Linda Hamilton just isn't a good actress anymore. I think her acting abilities were terminated by James Cameron.
Also, thanks Cornballer.

My favorite bands I've discovered from Chuck are The Thermals and The Constellations.

I think of all the music that Chuck introduced me to, I probably listen to The Thermals and Frightened Rabbit the most.
More PM's going out today. If you're feeling impatient, send me a message and I'll reply when I have a chance.

It's the same guy doing both of those, iirc. I follow him on Twitter for ratings news, but I don't read his blog posts.Domino Theory said:
I don't know. He's had some good stuff in the past (like the one you mentioned), but he's also done things like posting five rumors, only three of which are true. I don't read many spoilers beyond casting stuff, so I haven't been keeping tabs on his site. Some of his info is definitely true, but I don't know enough to guarantee that all of it is.

I just went over to Chuckgasmic for the first time since you mentioned it Cornballer. WTF is going on in that site? I can barely tell what is going on there.
BTW, thanks for the soundtrack link.
