Is this the first time a show saved by a fan campaign was renewed for an additional season? I think it is. Pat yourselves on the back, Chucksters, and three cheers for Chuck!

  2. Chuck is the best show on tv. I love the show. I hope it continues for a very long time.

  3. Awesome!!! Best show on TV!!! It’s about time that NBC has seen the light.

  4. YEAHHHHH AWESOME NEWS

  5. Congrats to Josh, the cast and crew.

  6. rejoice, Geekingdom!!!

  7. This is great news-even better if they get the back 9–I hope Chuck and Sarah can stay together through the rest of all the episodes, regardles of season. I really enjoy the more time available for the comedy and adventure as opposed to blowing time on the angst. Now I will have to eat BREAKFAST and lunch at Subway. It would be super if we could get at least 6 total seasons or more-I sound greedy. Thanks for the really great news and for the effort everyone put into getting a renewal–lets add some fans!!

  8. just saw the schedule, we don’t have to wait until next year, Chuck will be back this fall. Awsome news

  9. Thank you now i can breathe again lol GO TEAM BARTOWSKI

  10. YES! So happy it’s getting renewed. =D

    I disagree with Larry1234 though, five seasons and i’ll be happy. =P

    This is probably the first show saved by the internet that has been renewed again.

    Cagney & Lacey was cancelled by CBS after the first season and fans saved the show by writing letters. It went on for a few seasons after ratings improved in S2.

  12. Quantum Leap also went on 2 additional seasons after being saved by fans. I think chuck will hopefully start to prove that neilsen isn’t everything

  13. great news! I’m in Switzerland and my husband and I are huge fans!

  14. Absolutly fantastic… I’m in the UK and only just about to start showing season 3. Am so glad I know that it’s gonna keep going. Just hope there isn’t a huge gap between the seasons here like last time.

    • Stay the course UK–I got pretty upset with S3 but around episode 9 things started to pick up-then came some really great episodes with lots of action and comedy. Chuck and Sarah just had to pair up!!

  15. yeah! team b… lives on!

  16. I’m truly glad!
    And I’m sure it’s going to be a really good season 4!!!
    I liked and enjoyed most of the episodes so far, with a few exceptions, but all in all, i believe it maintains the rythm from season 1 (with it’s ups and downs, but i’m not too picky…): great cast, great music, comedy, action, romance, what not to like???!!!!
    🙂

    We did it Chuck fans! Weclome to season 4 it’s going to be great season of Chuck this fall 22 episodes in all.

    • 22 episodes is that correct?? I thought there were 13 episodes for sure with 9 more possible–22 would be great!!!

  18. Chuck me!!!! So glad we get to see more of Team Bartowski. Perhaps another Mr. Roboto scene?

    Anticipating watching Chuck makes it easy to get through Mondays, and the show never disappoints. We’re old enough to remember The Avengers, Remington Steele, and Moonlighting. All classics, but Chuck is the best. The writing is brilliant. Keep ’em coming!

  20. Yes, yes!
    thanks to NBC.

  21. THANK YOU NBC! For renewing another season for CHUCK! From the UK! I am a huge fan. So far Season 3 is pretty good. I am so shocked that Shaw is alive..Hunt that guy down for good!!

    Thanks.

  22. YEY season 4 is gonna be true yey yeye party.And Adam,Zachery and Yvone will be more to NBC 🙂

  23. Agreed, Agreed, Agreed – Best show on Television with a great cast. It’s actually nice to know who everyone is. Kudos to all, but especially Adam Baldwin. Don’t hear a lot about him, but he is great. Hope for many more seasons!

  24. the best news ever!!!!!!! it’s the only show I watch on tv.

  35. “Is this the first time a show saved by a fan campaign was renewed for an additional season? I think it is.”

    UMMM NO How about stargate sg-1 brought back by fans for season 9 and renewed for season 10 and also 2 movies.

  36. So who thinks CHARAH is together next year. I hope the HECK they are. It would be a damn shame if they are not. I hope the WRITERS read my comments. It took 3 years for those CHARH to be together DON”T end it. I hope SHAW is going to be dead and gone. Come up with some other baddie CHARAH can defeat………..PS is this better MEL

  37. Yessss, great. Now can we see them work up to Chuck and Sarah getting married by the end of season four and throwing that tormenting twist into the mix…let’s just hope that the dead and returned to live Evan is quickly banished….can you imagine a chuck and sarah wedding, then just for good measure throw in casey getting back with his ex and helping guide his daughter…I’d settle for one or the other…but does anyone else think chuck and sarah are heading for a wedding?

    • I sure hope they do. It would be a fitting end to the show if and when that did happen. ala hart to hart

  38. This is the best show ever produced! I love it. It has everything that I look for in a show. Comedy, Action, Romance, Did I say Comedy!! JEFFSTER!!!!
    I hope this show continues for a very long time like the SIMPSONS!! I just cant get enough of it!! We have CHUCK Parties every monday night. To the producer…. You blew it out the park with this one!! Thank god for another season!! LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!

  39. am glad chuck series is still going…its pretty addictive..the writers are really awesome…keep it coming..hope it can also be aired here in the philippines..am watching chuck online…

  40. PLEASE don’t ruin the CHARAH item. that would ruin the show. gonna be tuff to get ratings tonight with the final of dancing and 24. KILL shaw dead

  41. how about some CHARAH babies for next year…………..

  42. I’m so glad that the series has not been cancled. My daughter and I both enjoy the show. It has become a great bonding time that we share together is this busy world of ours. We attend to forget to take the time out to spend it with the one’s we love.

  43. Yay!! (Happy Dance, Happy Dance!!)

  44. Don’t know why, I am a 59 year old basically non-geek, CFO. Yet Chuck is the only real show on TV I watch every week, or care much about. I told my wife, who is much more of a TV watcher than I am, that we would have no use for our TVs if Chuck went off the air :-). Just sell em (OK, she didn’t go with that). Anyway, just putting my two cents in. Took part in the fight to keep it on the air last time, and will again if need be.

    • So glad we’ll have season 4. I’m 50, my husband is 56 and this the only show we watch every week. It is definitely the best show on TV. The writers are fantastic. Thanks for giving us something worth watching out of the thousands of choices in tv-land.

  45. i love this show
    family friendly haha

  46. Thank you, this is our favorite show. We watch only educational TV and Chuck. We love the actors, the every expanding story line and having fun watching TV that isn’t a reality show. We need the diversion. Thank you so much.

  47. Best show on television period. The only show that I stop everything that I’m doing and sit down to watch it! Thank God for Season 4! Chuck Lives!!!!!

  48. amazing finale….best episode of nything in tv history i lovee this show cant wait for fou

  49. JUST WATCHED SEASON 3 FINALE….iT was more then I could ask for. I’ve gone to movies that have had less action. Great mix of action/comedy and romance. started watching check in season 2, wife and I have been hooked since. I even had to buy sesaon one, cause I couldn’t get through the summer without chuck.We need more chuck…year round…plus…think joey mcintyres song would be a great intro for next year ” here we go again”…great show, great cast, even had me misty eyed when chucky’s sis started crying in the car,,plus she’s hot ( had to get that in there…and captain awesome…has his funny moments too)…love the chemistry of the show, looking forward to next year! Thanks for the people who kept the faith and NBC to have the intelligence to bring the show back…it’s…awesome!
