    Chuck Versus the First Bank of Evil
    Chuck Bartowski encourages Vivian McArthur to get in touch with her inner villain for a mission; Morgan's search for a new roommate has unexpected results.

    While I enjoyed the episode overall, the Vivian setup was a little too predictable.

    I found the wedding stuff funny [with my brother and his fiancee going through it at the moment] and Morgan was as entertaining as always.

    Found it decent enough, but the bank robbery irked me. Before they get there the first time Casey etc is like oh, be careful etc General says they have lost 8 agents in there etc they go in the place is heavily guarded and Chuck is not allowed upstairs etc, they go and rob it just the two of them and its as easy as pie?

    just didn't click - but was still fun!!

    and talk about Bridezilla!!

    I loved it actually. Thought it was excellent.

    Loads of laughs and I found the bank robbery scene very funny - they seemed almost too comfortable doing it; a la Bonnie & Clyde type scenario.

    Vivian setup was predictable, yes, but it was always going to be so.

    The problem with these episodes is that the future of the show is uncertain - they don't want to upset loyal fans by leaving a massive cliffhanger which will never be resolved, but they don't want to shut it down leaving next season (which will hopefully happen) with them scratching their heads and doing something stupid.

    Great episode, bank scene was very matrix-esque!! :D

    A major dip after the recent run of good episodes. The wedding bollocks is just so annoying to watch and everything else was completely predictable. Saved from the bin only by the presence of Vivian.

    i think ill see about booking an island for the wedding :D

    not epic stuff but a very good episode anyway,

    i wonder will chuck find out where volkov is being kept and tell vivian, who will then go about break dear daddy out,

    i still dont understand how chuck can be so daft to stick tights on his head, and 5 minutes later be totally on the ball robbing a bank:confused::p

    THE MATRIX!....not much to add for this ep. Ray wise was OK, Vivian...loved her sniggering that Wise's monologue. The picture they used of Lauren Cohan on Chuck's displsy....piercing blue eyes!, she looked stunning!

    But it was too much of a filler ep. and another 1.7 this week...eek!

    Went for my usual fix of lunch time Chuck today, another break! Not back until next week, this must be the work of Volkov.
