Totally agree with you. Leading line in this show is Chuck and Sarah “love story” and if this will be broken then whole show is ruined.

Yeah Gord, we have to believe that season three will be awesome.

I’m sure there will be challenges and obstacles for Chuck and Sarah, and on some level she will be upset with him for downloading Intersect 2.0, but on the other hand she’ll be proud of him for saving the day. But I cannot believe F & S will completely alienate the loyal fan base and keep them apart.

They always found a way back to each other. It may not happen overnight, but I just think these two are destined to be together. We’ll all get what we want. Eventually.

I have heard that by the end of season three Chuck and Sarah will both cease to have romantic feelings for each other. I know this upsets a lot of folks. It upsets me. I can’t believe that will happen, though. F & S can throw obstacles, road blocks, hotties and beef cakes in the way, but fans need more faith that these two will stay true.

I guess the only positive should Sarah and Chuck fall out of love is that it would send a clear message that season four is coming. There’s no way they can kill the show with them apart. I think the only way this show ends is with them together. We’ll know it, of course, but never see it on film. It will be left to the imagination and we’ll be left to assume they live happily ever after.

Alex I completely agree with you. Season 3 is on a very short leash with me.

Which is what the article was showing you that there is more than meets the eye going on with those characters. You will get the adventure, the comedy, the romance,the thrills, and emotional investment.

As you pointed out yourself no guest star needs 6 episodes simply to play a potential love interest so they must be there for other story purposes.

Lose the gloom, strike up a light, and get ready to enjoy a kickass season of Chuck!

I hate to put a damper on things but I really want to see the comedy and adventure in Series 3 and I will not enjoy them with Brandon Routh challenging Chuck for Sarah. Sounds like Routh and Bryce came from the same litter. I am already looking forward to Routh’s exit–he is just not good enough to merit 6 episodes–no one is. Love triangles, trapezoids or whatever soap opera characteristics are used are not F&S teasers they are generators of negative angst. It is fine for people to disagree with me but we all have our own reasons to view the show. I hope F&S use the extra 6 episodes wisely which would include no expansion of Routh’s episodes or any other love conflicts. If Routh is successful in his quest for Sarah and beds her down that would certainly end the show for me. I would hope F&S would not do that to the fans that worked so hard to keep the show on the air.

That’s fair Alex. I’m getting the impression that some have already given up. At least you’re giving season three a chance. You have an open mind.

I would love Sarah and Chuck’s relationship to be more defined, but I absolutely love this show no matter what direction it goes. It offers so much more that just Chuck and Sarah.

Like I’ve alluded, I think they’ll end up together. I may take some time and it may not conform to what we and/or Chuck consider normal. Chuck has more than once taken the attitude, “OK Sarah, I get it. Nothing’s ever going to happen,” and yet he never gives up on her or them.

This show for me is like Get Smart in contemporary times. It’s Get Smart squared or even cubed. I can’t give up on it.

Actually KG, it’s not so foolish.
I can understand the people who just doesn’t want to get frustrated all over again…after all ,you don’t watch TV(especially a show that you like) to get those kind of feelings of dismay and anger.
Me, I’m going to try and give them the benefit of the doubt…at least at first, but IMO patience has run it’s course after two seasons.

Yes I recall in the podcast interview with Chuck producer Robert Duncan McNeil, he made a comment that some guests will have absolutelty nothing to do with the spy world, and my impression was he was talking about Hannah.
Also from the casting call I also got that impression. Then again this is Chuck and anything can happen.

I think in the same way. Sarah has a lot of issues to deal with too. I think they will be helping her to become more “normal”.
Chuck has always seemed to have a part of him that is holding back from Sarah because she is not “normal”. Now that Chuck is becoming a spy, and Sarah wants a real life, they will meet eventually in the middle. When that happens I think the shippers will become ecstatic, because it will take things through the roof.

That being said, I don’t think this will happen anytime soon, and perhaps not until a later season (being positive we will see later seasons, but I’m confident it will happen and it will be spectacular.
