  1. I cant wait untill tonight i dont know about everybody else on here but the suspense is killing me. I really hope that this episode lives up to the hype that has been created 🙂 all i can say that it has to be really good to be in level or better that Yvonnes amazing performance in the Phase 3. Thats wait an see shall we 🙂

    • I am with you I am so excited for episode 413 only prob is I will be in class and can not watch it until 10:30pm tonight. So I am wondering do I spoil or not by reading the live chat? LOL BTW I am sure it will live up to the hype 🙂

    • I totally agree with u, I hope Zach could make the best performance of his life on this ep, ’cause it has to be greater than Yvonnes performance in Chuck vs Phase Three!!

  2. I do not anticipate some of the things happening tonight that I hope occur during this season but I do think it will be an exceptional episode. I agree it will have to be great to be better than Phase 3. I hope it has not been overhyped which sometimes happens with “Chuck”.

  3. seriously, the best “mix” ever on this show was Chuck’s stalking mix for “vs. the sizzling shrimp.” I still laugh whenever I hear the song “Private Eyes.” Its random things like that that made this show so great!

  4. Zac gives such an entertaining interview. Thanks for including that, Mel.

  5. My bet is that the final 10 is the actual proposal.

    • This is what i was thinking too. Unfortunately i’m in the UK and will have to wait till tomorrow evening to find out! I have a feeling it’s going to be worth the wait though 😀

    • Ok, revise that to the final 30 seconds

  6. last ten minutes:everyone will be reunited and plus a baby yeppie

  7. My hope is that Chuck will be pushed into becoming the hero that he is capable of. If that isn’t in the mix it will have a hard time being the best 10 minutes of Chuck.

  8. I feel like a kid waiting on Christmas right now. I can’t wait for the show.

  9. “Best 10 minutes ever”? I don’t know if they will beat vs. the Ring II…

  10. I cannot wait for this show!

  11. What is the name of that song that was played when Sarah and chucks mom were in the bad guys office stealing the hydra information??please let me know asap!!
    Thanx:)

  12. Sorry, the last 10 minutes were not the best Chuck, the preceeding 50 minutes was.

  13. Best 10 minutes ever? Meh. It was really good but but not the bet 10, IMO.

  14. Not the best last 10…but overall…AWESOME!!!!(: <3

  15. I thought the second half of the show really shined. Wasn’t too sure of this ‘plan’ that Chuck and Morgan were working on, but it paid off. I thoroughly enjoyed the last ten minutes because it included everyone. Instead of them being around the dinner table, they were at the hospital where they all should be. I thought the proposal was done so well….no words necessary…just the hum of the floor polisher with Chuck and Sarah in the background. Loved the look between Chuck and Sarah just sitting there. They say so much with just their looks.

  16. Oh and one other thing, they didn’t kill off Volkoff, yeah. He was sooooo entertaining that I hated to see him killed off. Bring back Timothy Dalton in any capacity.

  17. The last 10 minutes were lovely, but no way were they the best ever. Lots of good stuff for future storylines came out of it though. I live in hope that they end the season with the wedding.

    • Agree. The last ten minutes weren’t close to the best last 10 minutes of Chuck. There are lots of “last ten minutes” that I would consider better than this “last ten minutes”.

      In fact, I consider the confrontation at Orion’s old cabin to be better than the epic “last ten minutes” of last night’s show.

  18. Today’s episode, “Chuck vs Push Mix”, was one of my favorite episodes of the season. Lately, some of the episodes were a little bit too off and lacking except on the “Chuck vs. Phase Three” where Yvonne was totally awesome! This episode really showed the real essence of the show. Everything was at its absolute best. From the start to the end. It was intense and they even managed to include some humorous moments perfectly. Everything was all there… the drama, the comedy, the romance and the action = AWESOME Chuck Episode ^___^

  19. I dunno. After three increasingly great finales in a row (season 2 and two for season 3) this one fell short. It was a great episode but just didn’t have the over-stuffed Fedak grandeur I’ve come to expect from a Chuck finale.

  20. The last 10 minutes of the show would have been the BEST EVAR if after showing chuck proposing to sarah and the close-up from the machine shinning the floor would have move up and showed Stephen Bartowski, AKA Orion, there, witnessing the scene. Now THAT would have made it the best scene ever… A missed opportunity because

    I am a strong believer that Orion is NOT dead. I can’t believe Ellie would have left his father dead on the ground after he was show back in season 3.

  21. I am getting annoyed by how over fake this show is getting. they need to look back at season 1 and 2 how the show used a good mix a unreal but more realism in the show.

  22. Great episode, I agree that the last 10 minutes weren’t amazing but the rest of the episode was. I think the editing was a bit off because the last few minutes seemed rushed, like they were just trying to get everything done. But I thought the proposal was extremely well done, no words needed, just seeing the actions was enough. Thumbs up, can’t wait till next week.

  23. for me it wasn’t the best 10 minutes. overal the episode was awesome.
    my favorite part was when volkoff came out the lift and everything got shutted down. and then with the screen.
    Hello Volkoff. I want my wife back.. Orion.

    i seriously went nuts in a happy way how awesome that was ! i started to think 2 ways. Orion lives. or Chuck is using his stuff. anyways. i do have to say. 1 of the best episodes.

    owye. Morgan FTW in that laser room !!
