Chuck


Recommended Posts

I'm already to go for the third season! Haven't watched any spoilers as much and got all prepped with watching the last 4 episodes from that SyFy marathon the other day.

Edit: Was the 9PM to 11PM eastern, central, mountain, or western time?

Just watched the two-hour season premiere (it hits NBC.COM and Hulu later tonight).

Without giving anything away, while it starts off bad, it gets better. MUCH better.

A variety of movie cliches get skewered (typical Chuck there, in other words), but we get some surprising insights into Chuck, Sarah, and even the Colonel (Chuck's ultimate boss at NSA; and just who was it she was talking to, and asking them to come clean about, at the end, in her office?).

Sarah is in a bit of a pickle, too, and said pickle gets MUCH juicier. (At least this time, EVERYONE is aware of exactly HOW bad Chuck has it for Sarah, and even Sarah for Chuck....including Chuck, Sarah, and even that normally-no-nonsense Colonel at NSA.)

Mini-spoiler: Chuck's wingman actually finds the end zone. (The girl is actually someone that showed up earlier in the series.)

I'm off to grab the season premiere so I can watch it on my PC at leisure (thank goodness for Boxee).

SPOILERS AHOY! You've been warned.

Chuck is BACK! Wohoo! Great two hours, looking forward to much more.

And.... I can't believe they killed off Emmett! I mean, the guy was a jerk, but kill him!? Harsh!

Edit: And Kol, Bryce is dead.

Well I assumed it was because of the budget cuts, right? My friend couldn't realize why I was freaking out during that two minute part where Emmett was shot. Shortly before that Morgan tells why Anna won't be around and then Emmett just gets blasted. Talk about a quick re-write out of the show, that Anna cop out was pretty unoriginal.

Overall, I'm really happy with everything so far, it turned out pretty good. I knew it was coming (the whole Sarah/Chuck starting at square 1 again) but it will help build the sexual tension.

Not *completely* at square one.

Remember, Sarah got the Complete Chuck-fession on a thumbdrive from Irina (after she and Chuck had chatted in the courtyard). I think she just got whacked with the Ole Clue-By-Four (and from the least likely of suspects) that Chuck Is Serious.

Besides, it looks like *Irina* is having Second Thoughts about the Spy Game.

Yea your right. Not square one but my guess is the writers will make it pretty close to that way for a while (able to build more tension).

Besides the belt/zipline cliche was there any others that I missed?

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.

    • Not sure what country you’re in but in many countries you can absolutely jail the sellers behind businesses… in fact I’d say in most countries you can do that
