nbc Chuck

[SMELTN]

not counting the fact that he plays computer games, like Call of Duty, etc, that make it to the show at times, he uses an iphone, and he works for a store that looks identical to Best Buy (except Green) and its called the Buy More, and his job is identical to the Geek Squad, but it is called Nerd Herd. They even have there own cars. So yeah pretty freakin hilarious

God I remember that episode where he used Morgan's COD4 strat when he was in that building, to make the bad guys think they were surrounded.. Priceless

Decision Delayed!

Chuck star Zachary Levi reveals to E! exclusively that NBC will not renew or cancel beloved spy dramedy Chuck for at least another week. Cast and crew had originally expected to hear before Monday's planned NBC "infront" presentation to advertisers.

When asked last night at an Eva Longoria Parker-hosted charity event benefiting Children's Hospital Los Angeles about prospects for a third season of Chuck, Levi said, "I thought we were going to hear about it this Monday because NBC's announcing a bunch of its schedule, but I just got an email from Josh Schwartz, and he said stay positive, but we're not going to find out on Monday. It could be another week or two. They're making their final tallies and decisions."

Chuck was the runner-up in E!'s 2009 Save One Show campaign and has been the focus of a vast Internet-based #savechuck campaign that has included Nerds candy mails-ins and a Subway "buy-in" demonstration.

So what's the holdup with the decision? Here's what Levi said about the NBC schedule right now:

"I don't envy the job of anyone at NBC or any network to have to make those calls," he told us. "It's a very difficult thing to do, especially in television nowadays, even trying to get a solid idea of how many people watch. It's so difficult between live and DVR and videotapes and Internet streaming and downloading and all that. And really, the concept of television has always been 'advertising money makes the shows,' and when people stop watching advertising because they're just going blip-blip, blip-blip [through the commercials] or watching online, you can't blame the companies for not wanting to put their money into it. Because it's like, what's the point? Nobody's watching the commercials."

In other NBC series news, Southland star Michael Cudlitz confirmed to us via Twitter that NBC has ordered 13 more episodes of the John Wells-produced v?rit? drama about Los Angeles police officers. The official announcement is expected Monday.

You can check whether Chuck has been renewed or not at this website. It's updated by Matt Barber (one of the editors of Chuck) and so should be pretty fast to update.

[Lewism]

That's my new homepage :p

[+Mystic MVC]

Of course they have to delay something like this. Maybe they will try to see if they can dig up some numbers on sites streaming Chuck. :p

[Lewism]

The website has changed to: Rumors abound

Also, this site said that it will be renewed monday.

Nikki Finke, from what I've read up about her, seems to be quite reliably informed...

[KoL Veteran]

We are going to know if it will be renewed today or next week??

Watching Season 1 and 2 again. I really want the show to get renewed. :(

I was thinking maybe Bryce is not dead. They can revive him like they did in Season 1. I would like to see an episode with Bryce, Chuck and Jill. :p

[cykosis]

We are going to know if it will be renewed today or next week??

The press release says that additional pickups will be announced on May 19th. So it looks like we'll have to wait a couple of more weeks for official Chuck news.

[lawtai]

heh yea, looks like May 19th..

[Rappy Veteran]

Just returned from NBC's upfront infront presentation. Highlights below.

? Peacock co-chairman Ben Silverman confirmed that Life will not go on. (Bubble Show Cheat Sheet updated accordingly.)

? As I reported earlier today, the fates of Medium, My Name is Earl, Chuck, and Law & Order will be decided on or before May 1? If Chuck is renewed, it probably won't be returning to Mondays. Silverman said HeroesParenthood)d)

? NBC is prepared to move forward with Law & Order: SVU with or without Chris Meloni and Mariska Hargitay. "There's an offer on the table," said co-chair Marc Graboff, cryptically.

? Special guests included Amy Poehler (wearing a swine flu mask) and Donald Trump (wearing his soggy raincoat).

? Light refreshments were served. And enjoyed.

You have got to be kidding me. They basically run that show and that is about the only crime drama I watch. I can't believe that is getting screwed up too. Any place I can follow that drama as well Rappy?

Great well I guess I'm left hanging on that. I just can't believe NBC is screwing up that show too!

[Rappy Veteran]

Yeah Chuck will be named in the next week I feel, alot is being "leaked" some saying its back some saying its not at least they said it would be moved if it does return so its not a done deal yet.

[SMELTN]

Most of us assume it would be moved I think. I just hope its renewed.

Any guesses on what night/time it will be moved to and why?

[Hupp]

i dont care where its moved to dvr fixes that, but just renew it already!

[Tech Star]

I am thinking Thursdays. Best time and date for it, where FOX, ABC, and CBS has nothing on NBC.

[lawtai]

I'm not sure if the other stations have nothing on NBC, but ABC still has Grey's Anatomy on Thursday's, and doesn't CBS have CSI?

[KoL Veteran]

Life was a good show :(

SVU has been ona downhill slip for the last couple years, a cast change is exactly what it needs right after they replace the current writers.

[Rappy Veteran]

Thanks to my contact "screencaps" who has sent us this screen capture from an internal WB Press Site. It clearly shows they are prepping for season 3.

That's from SpoilerTV

[SMELTN]

YAY!! I hope it's true..and if so are we changing nights? Shouldn't we find out Mon-Tues of this week?

[KoL Veteran]

I hope it's true :woot: :woot:
