I got to be honest, I just rewatched the finale again and I truly loved everything about the episode except those last two minutes. I was so intrigued by the Volkoff developments, hope we see both Hartley and Vivian gain. I think Decker makes a great new villian, and the potential that a conspiracy was/is controlling all their lives is super interesting. And I cant wait to find out what the writers have in store for us in those aspects. That being said, I really really dislike Morgan as the intersect. It just feels so gimmicky and I honestly hope he gets deintersected quickly. Would have been a perfect 10 episode if only it werent for those last two minutes. Doesnt surprise me at all the survey showed what people liked least was Morgan as the intersect. Sorry, long post.

In reply to Keith. I actually like morgan this season especially but in very small doses and it was about right he was not in every episode that worked. My worry is next year hes going to be in too much and take away from chuck and sarah and ofcause casey i loved last details it was so funny. The team was great. I agree morgan doing the wedding just added to the confusion on it being a dream which made it hard to feel what i should be feeling finally chuck and sarah were married. Yeah its a strange way to lead into the last season with chuck no longer being the hero and what appears less focus on the two main characters chuck and sarah that as clearly this poll shows people watch it for.

In reply to andrew. I agree 100%. I have never liked Morgan as a character, but have learned to live with him to help with some of the comedy. I felt the intersect bit as well as him officiating the wedding should have been left on the cutting room floor.

In reply to Leo99999. sorry chuck and morgan will never be as awesome or watchable as chuck and sarah fighting together - as in first bank of evil and honeymooners. I would prefer to see sarah and chuck beating the bad guys up. In suitcase sarah's fight was just great on the catwalk and sarah looked incredible. Morgan and Chuck fighting will not get we red blooded males watching. Its likely to make us switch over and the more i watch season 1 the more i am convinced this is as bad an idea as SHAM was the first time morgan gets chucks hero music it likely the first time i turn off. While i loved season 4, i would prefer if season 5 is going to be as bad as it sounds just to remember it for how good season 1, 2 and 4 were. I am waiting to hear what is said at comic con i will not invest in a show only to be disapointed like season 3.

In reply to Gord. Hi Gord, I agree with you totally, i watch cause of chuck and sarah and their journey. Love team b which looking back over the season works better when morgan is not there or is just in support. If you look at suitcase great episode or last details they were very light morgan episodes. I am rewatching season 1 at the moment and the more i think about it this is as bad an idea as the whole sham. While i liked morgan this season, giving him the intersect will mean hes going front and centre he will as chris fedak said be on every mission it seems partnered with chuck. Thats not why i watch i watch to see chuck and sarah partnered thats the dream team. I have found myself fast forwarding through buy more stuff from season 1 which seems to match that buy more has served its purpose frankly its the worst part of the show. Morgan as the intersect creates some fears that we will see less chuck and sarah as a team and its going to become the morgan show just as season 3 became the shaw show and ruined the dynamic. I had hoped that we would have seen a cool sexy couple taking on the bad guys seems we are retrograde stepping into a dull chuck and morgan dynamic. I have to say i am less enthused about season 5 than I was about season 3 when we heard about the whole PLI.

I struggle with the uproar against Morgan getting the Intersect. As long as they don’t focus on his character and use it as a way to explain why Chuck is “special” (As has been claimed in interviews) and Chuck gets it back as well then it should be cool

Also, the opportunity for Morgan/Chuck fighting bad guys together is just too awesome for words! 🙂

I’m not surprised that more people would tune out of the show if the Chuck/Sarah relationship were reset rather than the Morgansect.

Personally, I wouldn’t stop watching a show if they used a plot twist that wasn’t what I wanted, because sometimes what the writers come up with is much better than I expected.

However, I really hated the fact Morgan got the intersect. I will just have to see how it plays out though.

The big test for me will be even with Morgan having the intersect am I still enjoying the show? Because that is the only thing that really matters -whether or not I am still enjoying Chuck.

I will only know that after I have watched a few episodes of S5.

Hey Mel, I know this is a fair amount of work, but would it be possible to get averages and perhaps variances for questions two and three?

Love your work! As usual the results are very interesting, though a lot of it was as I expected. My biggest shock was not seeing Mekenna Melvin higher up on the fav guest stars list and not seeing ‘The Giant Blonde She-Male’ higher up on the fav elements list.
I’d also be interested in seeing what people most want to see next season. Personally I’d like to see more of Sarah’s background, what we know is still so vague. I’d also would love for Scott Bakula to come back. Since Chuck and Sarah are already married, I think the ultimate resolution to the Chuck story would be to see the Bartowski family finish together.
