You know, it stuns me, that when Canadians produce a great show like this, they don't put the effort into marketing it. It's almost like they're embarrassed that it's good. I live in Canada and want to see more Canadian content, but good content, not some stupid period piece about some chick growing up on the east coast. This show is funny. It's well written, directed and edited. The actors in it cannot only act, but are real. The humor doesn't come out of some actor "mugging" the camera, but out of the reality of the scenes, which can only be done when you have a strong cast. Hopefully, they'll have more than one season, which is doubtful, given that I actually tried to follow this on cable and couldn't, because the scheduling either changed, or was wrong, or whatever. If you have a PVR, it's worth finding when it's on and taping it. This show is worth seeing. It's too bad that there are only 13 episodes, but if they're smart, they'll make more. End rating: a great show, with crappy promotion, but definitely worth seeing.

Chuck is well written, shot and edited. The characters are believable and the acting is great. This is one of the few shows on TV that's actually worth watching. OK, so it might not be super deep like Lost (great show too), but that's part of the appeal. The show doesn't take itself too seriously. It took me a few episodes to get into it, but now I love the show. You actually care about the characters. Again, I think, down to great acting.

It's art, some people are going to get it, some won't. With shows like Dead Like Me and Pushing Daisies getting axed, it's nice to have something out there like Chuck. I think it's great and I look forward to seeing more episodes.
