how come it’s not up on Zune yet?? that’s where I’ve always gotten mine and its not coming up…
Hi bohemianlove,
Podcast sites tend to check for updates at set intervals — it could be 1/2 hour up to 6 hours or even more from when a podcast is published until it shows up on those external sites.
Until Zune sees it, you can use the direct links above, or go to http://www.chuckpodcast.com.
Hope this helps,
Gray.
yeah, itunes doesn’t have it yet..
Hi,
if you subscribe to the podcast in iTunes you should see it — I tested it at 6pm EST and it worked.
I’m not sure why it isn’t showing up in the iTunes Store yet, though — probably the same reason as the Zune marketplace.
You can always use the direct links above, or go to http://www.chuckpodcast.com. If you download using the links you can drag the downloaded files into iTunes or play them with Quicktime Player.
Hope this helps,
Gray.
Hi,
it should be fully up on the iTunes Store now, and probably at Zune too.
Hope this helps,
Gray.
Yeah, it’s on Zune now.
Thanks!
Great Podcast!
It’s awesome to know that our efforts are being noticed!
HOLY CRAP!!! WHAT AN AWESOME PODCAST EPISODE!!!!!!!!!
Props to everyone at Chucktv.net and the podcast for getting this together. It was an EPIC experience listening to the show creators and actors raving about the upcoming finale and their love of Chuck. It really feels like the outpouring of support that happens when television titans like Seinfeld or Friends come to a close.
Chuck is the BEST thing to come onto my television in a long time. It has elevated my view of my BuyMore-like job, it has reminded me the importance of my friends and family, and most importantly, it has taught me to love again (I love you Yvonne!).
If NBC is stupid enough to cancel this show, I will boycott the network, its affiliates, and its sponsors.
P.S. BEWARE OF MINOR SPOILERS IN THIS PODCAST EPISODE!!! I WASN’T EXPECTING TO HEAR SPOILERS FROM THE CAST!!!!!!!
Average TV shows make you feel indifferent, good TV shows make you laugh or cry, great TV shows make you laugh and cry. Fortunately, NBC’s Chuck is the third kind, a rarity. Chuck’s scripts and acting have been so consistent, unlike the sometime equally good 30 Rock; Chuck’s on-screen dynamic is pleasantly gripping and the leads’ chemistry most palpable, unlike the 24 or the Lost. Each episode of Chuck is filled with tension, twists, gadgets, action sequences and humor that put most of today’s TV shows to shame. Ultimately, Chuck is TV gold because it is a series with its noble souls, its plot so surreal yet so real. It is a story about everyday people who strive to make a better life, about family and friendship, about loyalty, dream and love. In this trying time, Chuck is the perfect escape for most of us, most soothing entertainment that can be enjoyed by the whole family and simply the best and the funniest show on TV. NBC folks know about comedy and drama, the Peacock has a proud tradition of making the best TV shows. NBC gave us 10 seasons of Friends and 7 seasons of the West Wing, I am sure they will make a wise decision to keep investing and fostering a little quirky gem that is Chuck. It is the TV show for this time, this audience and this network. If NBC decide not to renew it, then the decline of the network will be a proven fact rather than mere speculation, and Chuck fans all over the world would be justified to burn down their living rooms and their respect for the Peacock. That, certainly would not be awesome.
I’ve got to say, hearing that podcast and so many of the cast and crew show support for our struggle just made me even prouder to be a fan of Chuck.
This is as awesome as it gets!
Great podcast! It’s too bad Yvonne Strahovski wasn’t available to give a short message. Everyone else was outstanding, it’s nice to get the writers perspective of it all.
Great, marvelous Podcast! It’s amazing to see so many of the cast and crew joining their voices to those of the fans. The only ones that were, sadly, missing as far as I can remember were Yvonne Strahovski and the actor who plays Lester (can’t remember his name >_>), but instead it was great to have the “behind the camera” people also show their support. Many thanks to all the Podcast team for putting this togheter for the fans, in this long days as we brace ourselves for the fateful decision that NBC will unleash upon the world soon, getting this kind of positive energy from the cast and crew really makes my day. 😉
Having just listened to this… I must say…. Whoever goes out of their way to find this website AND listen to this podcast are obviously going to be watching the finale so 20 minutes of pleas to watch it seems pointless. Aside from that it’s great to hear from everybody…
This is just proof of the almost family dynamic there is between the cast of Chuck and the fans. They entertain us, and we in turn, are the ones that help them to make a living. The great thing is, they realize this. This tells me that cast and writers are so intelligent, sincere, and shall I say, awesome!!! Viva La Buymore.
Hi Ryan,
you couldn’t be more right — having spoken to most of them myself, they are all totally overwhelmed by the fan support, and are grateful, humble, generous people. Actually, I was surprised to find that many of them are “fans” of the show themselves, meaning in the exact same way we are. They watch on Monday nights, they check the fan websites after the episodes to see what people are saying, etc.
We had asked them for 5 minute interviews, and most gave 20 minutes or more. This included Zachary Levi — he had just flown from L.A. to London, and had been up for about 26 hours — it was after 1:00 am London time when I reached him, and yet we talked for over 20 minutes. Sarah Lancaster was on a much needed vacation, and yet insisted that she take part.
These guys are the genuine article.
Cheers,
Gray.
I believe that Yvonne Strahovski isn’t in Podcast because she is in Australia for a project.
