The Comic Con NON-Interview: Sarah Lancaster & Yvonne Strahovski

The Chuck press room was packed and we had a lot of people to talk with during the hour allotted. Unfortunately, we were the last to get Sarah Lancaster and Yvonne Strahovski, so just as they came over to us, the handlers said it was time for them to leave to get over to the Warner Bros. booth for the signing. Boo! We did get to say hi to them, plus get some Sarah and Ryan teasing, but sadly that’s about it.

VIDEO: The Chuck Comic Con Panel

NBC has posted the Chuck panel from Comic Con 2009, minus the JEFFSTER! performance (licensing issues). This video will only work the U.S., so apologies to overseas fans for that.

Grab a beverage and a snack, and settle in to watch. If you want the true Comic Con experience, go stand outside for two hours, starting about 2 blocks down the street, and slowly walk to your house. When you get to your front door, let out a cheer and walk quickly (but don’t run!) to your computer, jostling imaginary people on the way to make sure you get the best seat.

PHOTOS: Chuck at Comic Con

While we sort out our own photos from Chuck at Comic Con, the professionals have been getting theirs up on Wireimage for us to view. A handful of photos from the panel are up, plus some from the Wired and EW/Syfy parties. If you have photos you’d like to share, send them to mel@chucktv.net along with how you’d like to be credited.

Chuck vs. Comic Con: Details Announced

With only a month to go until Comic Con, Warner Bros. has released some details about the Chuck panel. Here’s what we know so far: the Chuck panel will happen on Saturday, July 25, most likely at 10AM in Ballroom 20. Confirmed attending are Josh Schwartz, Chris Fedak, Zachary Levi, Yvonne Strahovski, Joshua Gomez, Ryan McPartlin, Mark Christopher Lawrence, Vik Sahay, Scott Krinsky, Julia Ling, Sarah Lancaster and Adam Baldwin. We’ll see a retrospective highlight reel (nothing from season 3 since they won’t have begun filming yet) plus “a special surprise from some of your favorite characters!” Can you say Jeffster concert?!? Also, Chuck cheerleader Alan Sepinwall will be moderating the panel, so you know it’s going to be extra awesome.

Liz, siskj and I will be there covering the Chuck-ness live. We plan to organize some sort of get-together for Chuck fans as well, possibly Saturday night. If you’ll be at Comic Con and are interested, leave a comment so we can get a feel for how many people want to meet.

Sarah Lancaster Checks Into ‘Hawthorne’

Sarah Lancaster, best known to us as Chuck’s big sis, has landed a guest-starring gig in the new TNT summer drama Hawthorne. The series stars Jada Pinkett Smith as a the Chief Operating Nurse and moral compass of a hospital. Sarah will play the girlfriend of a patient who is horribly injured in a motorcycle accident. Her character is described as a woman who’s never had to face adversity and is now challenged by the consequences of her boyfriend’s accident. Out of love for her, her boyfriend chooses to undergo a high-risk surgery that could potentially kill him.

Hawthorne premieres on TNT on Tuesday, June 16 at 9/8c. The airdate for Sarah’s episode is currently unknown.

‘Chuck’ Cast, Creative Team Thank Fans & Talk Finale on Chuck vs. the Podcast

As fans of NBC’s critically acclaimed show CHUCK continue to rally behind the show and ask NBC for a third season, a star-studded lineup from the cast and creative team came together to thank the fans for their efforts on Chuck vs. the Podcast leading up to the season finale, airing Monday, April 27th. From London, New York, Toronto, and Los Angeles, they were all eager to reach out and share their gratitude for the fan campaigns, excitement about the finale, and passion for the show.

“The grassroots campaigns to save CHUCK have been nothing short of remarkable,” says series lead Zachary Levi, calling from London. “It means so much to know that the fans are doing so much to keep the show on the air.”

Adam Baldwin, who plays gruff Colonel John Casey, expresses his gratitude as well. “I think the campaign by the fans for the renewal is very helpful, and I appreciate all the support that’s out there.”

The cast and creative team gave a few clues about what to expect in the season finale as well, promising an episode that will thrill fans and whet appetites for a third season.

“It’s going to be epic,” promises Joshua Gomez, who plays Morgan Grimes. “Whether you’ve been watching the whole time or not, you’re going to get your money’s worth. I think people are going to be really excited when they see it.”

“The finale is going to be a game changer,” teases Ryan McPartlin, aka Captain Awesome. “The finale is going to get the fans’ mouths watering for a third season.” McPartlin also discusses his excitement at fan reaction for the penultimate episode of CHUCK, and how he plans to join the fans in the campaign for a third season.

Other highlights include Bonita Friedericy (General Diane Beckman) talking about the strong female characters on the show; Tony Hale (Emmett Millbarge) talking about how important CHUCK is as a family show that all ages can safely watch; and writers Ali Adler, Phil Klemmer and Scott Rosenbaum talking about their plans for season 3.
