I started to watch Chuck because I was looking for something to replace The OC. Both Chuck and Gossip Girl were candidates because they were also created by Josh Shwartz. Gossip Girl did not grab me right away and I stopped watching after the second episode (though went back and got caught up later). Chuck had a more OCish vibe than GG did, oddly. It was the pretty setting and the music type that was used on the show I guess.

Anyway, I got hooked completely. The main character as so geeky and charming, Sarah is so badass, and Casey is awesome. But it was Chuck and Ellie's relationship that really interested me. I am a fan of family stuff on tv shows, and this one was fascinating what with their abandonment issues and all. Josh Schwartz has even said their relationship is the soul of the show. The spy stuff is pretty cool, too.

Unlike other Josh shows, this one is actually still pretty good in season three. I have no problem saying this is my favoite show on tv at the moment.
