[SEASON 5 REWATCH] Week 1: Episode 1 - 3

chuck vs. the zoom
5x01 - episode discussion
CHUCK VERSUS THE ZOOM (TV-PG)

AS CHUCK BEGINS LIFE AS A SPY-FOR-HIRE, HE MUST ADJUST TO HIS NEW BUSINESS, NEW THREATS, AND A NEW INTERSECT -- HIS BEST FRIEND MORGAN GRIMES – MARK HAMILL AND CRAIG KILBORN GUEST STAR


Without the Intersect in his head or the support of the CIA, the world of espionage is a much more dangerous place for Chuck Bartowski (Zachary Levi) and his team of freelance spies. To start, Carmichael Industries takes on a slick, rich thief named Jean Claude (guest star Mark Hamill), and a conniving investor, Roger Bale (guest star Craig Kilborn), who has stolen money from some of the world’s most dangerous people. Meanwhile, Morgan (Joshua Gomez) helps Chuck with a special surprise for Sarah (Yvonne Strahovski). Back in the Buy More, Jeff (Scot Krinsky) and Lester (Vik Sahay) have taken things to another level with their latest scheme. Sarah Lancaster and Adam Baldwin also star.

OK, what's the plan again? We're supposed finish watching the three episodes by when? A week from the thread opening, i.e. May 27th?

Do we wait until then to discuss them, or as soon as we've watched?

Chuck vs The Zoom

I forgot just how much I enjoyed this episode. The Morgan and Sarah were scenes were all great (not sure how we didn't get more of the two of them together), Chuck playing a backseat was done really well, and then his plan at the end to save the day was perfect. Morgan bumbling around with the intersect was enjoyable, especially during the opening scene, which I thought the whole opening was really well done. Sarah and Chuck talking about their future home was a nice scene. Casey could have had a bit more of a role, but I liked him jumping in head first once he leard Rush Limbaugh (sp?) had been taken in the scam.

Oh and the Sarah seduction scene didn't hurt either.

So, I'm going to try to resurrect this. I watched Zoom, and then got distracted by ... stuff. But, I'm really going to try to get the ball rolling again with watches of 5.02 and 5.03 this weekend - honest!

So, Chuck vs The Zoom. I liked this episode. Not in my faves, but a solid episode with all the right parts - funny, sexy, action, and sweet.

Funny
Opening scene with Sarah telling Casey to "Say something about you-know-who.", and Casey responding "Do I have to?"

Casey going all-in on the plan after hearing that bad guy ripped off Rush Limbaugh.

Morgan's pre-mature zoom

Sexy
Sarah. Lingere. 'nuff said (Also funny - Chuck's futile attempt to resist. )

Action
Chuck saves the team with his plan. (Also kinda funny - "Leave me. Go.", "GUYS DON'T LEAVE ME!" )

Sweet
CS discussing her dream home, and Chuck's attempts to guess and surprise her with one.
CS talking in front of her dream house at the end, and Sarah telling him "Chuck, you're our leader."
