In reply to Aces. The only Hedwig I've ever heard of is the one with and angry inch.

Here’s an obscure, perhaps accidental, sci-fi/fantsay reference. Chuck’s fraternity at Stanford was Gamma Delta Phi. Rearrange the letters and you get the real life International Fraternity of Phi Gamma Delta whose mascot is the snowy owl. Harry Potter’s Hedwig is a snowy owl.

No one mentioned the “I will kill you” by Ivan Drago from Rocky by Dolph Lundgren in Chuck vs. the Anniversary.

Being such a tv and movie trivia NERD – my absolutely favorite part of CHUCK, besides Zac Levi, of course, is all the references the writers sneak into the story.

Wasn’t there also Bond trivia snuck into the story when Timothy Dalton first appeared? Or am I just dreaming??

Do you think Chuck liked the new Tron? Will he have a Tron Legacy poster next to his original when we come back? That would be a cool nod. I can’t wait until Jan. 20. All Hail Buy-Moria!

I just got my copy of season 2 (it was finally cheap enough for me to afford it because it was on sale) and in Suburbs Jeff and Lester (becuase of Big Mike’s behavior) start questioning whether or not he was sent from the future or is a skin Job .Another Terminator reference.
