Chuck to return later this month? - Blu-ray Forum

charlie swords · 10-10-2009, 02:26 PM

thats the rumor according to EW...

clicky

"It’s good news (for me), bad news (for NBC): Since its numbers are down and its new and returning shows are mainly DOA (Southland was axed before new episodes even aired!), Chuck’s third season might get to premiere sooner than the March date that’s been bandied about thus far.
“How much sooner” you ask?

As early as late October, my moles tell me. And while it remains unclear whether the little show that could (and has and shall again) would return to its Monday timeslot or find itself a new perch, NBC insiders who’ve seen the first four episodes are calling this season the best yet.
But wait, there’s more. If Chuck does come back sooner rather than later, the chances of NBC ordering additional episodes beyond the 13 it initially commissioned increases dramatically. And they increase further if it performs solidly… which for NBC, at this point, means my cat, Mister Scooch, sits down to watch with me. (Seriously, anything above a 2 rating in the 18-49 demo should do the trick.)

Are we happy, people? Dumb question. Allow me to rephrase: How happy are we? Weigh in below!"

This is good news can't wait for the new season.

charlie swords · 10-10-2009, 02:57 PM

i just hope they dont put it in the crappiest time slot they can find.

Astalder · 10-10-2009, 03:06 PM

It's like the only show I care about left on NBC, good to hear.

CAST · 10-10-2009, 07:38 PM

If the show starts that much earlier, I wonder if the BD of season 2 will come out sooner?
It seems like they like to time their releases around the premier. So I can only hope.

I hope this is more than a rumor!!!

That will mean that us UK based fans will get the 3rd season sooner as well!!!

I adore this show, and hope for it to continue beyond the 13 already ordered episodes of Season 3

Great news!

But this should be merged with the Chuck thread: -

I'm still kind of on the fence as to whether this is a good thing or not. On one hand, it would be great to have it back sooner and this could mean more episodes. On the other hand, it will be rushed onto the air with little promotion and it may get stuck in a crappy time slot.

I would love to see this back early. It should never have been pushed back to begin with.

LynxFX · 10-11-2009, 12:24 AM

This is great news, especially if they already have 4 episodes in the can. Waiting until March seemed like a death sentence anyway.

broganreynik · 10-11-2009, 02:07 PM

And I still haven't seen any of Season 2, dang it.

pmac · 10-11-2009, 02:52 PM

I for one would really like to see this show back, and sooner would be a bonus. It's quite a cheezy show but fun to watch. And who is the lady lead, she is quite atractive.
