Chuck S05E06 "Chuck Versus the Curse" [** SPOILERS **]

Diddy Kong

Chuck is framed for the crime of the century by a group of rogue CIA agents. One such agent is the cold and calculating Robin Cunnings (Rebecca Romijn), who is widely known for her torture techniques. Ellie and Awesome go on a date that quickly turns into a night full of action after a case of mistaken-identity.


Thought it was an enjoyable episode, the preview for the future episode was very interesting.

Chuck getting the intersect back??

- Although I was expecting the "toy" to kick start the process of getting the intersect back, but alas. Looking forward to seeing the Christmas special

Me too . In fact, it's not really the same without it
Thought it was a very good episode, can't wait for the next one - previews look great.
Preview:

"No intersect to help you this time chuck? I wouldn't be too sure about that..." - Very Interesting!
The scene is a good throwback to when they've fought before. Shaw *should* still have the intersect, right?

It was also weird the computers were all going down, and they'll be fine the next episode. If it's just embedding waiting to be 'activated', why would it go through all that sequence. It'd make more sense to be invisibile UNTIL it's active.. Then no-one would know better until it hits. It's like when the villian describes their whole plan while the hero is just standing there, and their plan is foiled. If it's actually active, why are their computers working?

Dont think Shaw will have the intersect. Most likely his was removed just like Chuck's. Even still, it looks like both Sarah and Casey are going to get outmatched by him so im looking forward to what the do with Chuck and if they will give him back the intersect or not.

Excellent episode. Probably one of the best of the entire show. Thought Awesome and Ellie were good and it was nice to see them provide the comic relief parts (as opposed to usually Morgan )

It makes me a bit sad though, Chuck has consistently been one of my favourite shows (even the weak episodes) - we will be sorely missing a show that doesn't take itself too seriously but can put out very well rounded and great episodes.
There aren't enough "spy-comedy" shows and I doubt there will be another any time soon that can match Chuck's expert mash of the two.
