I've been trying to decide what to say about the new season of Chuck, already three episodes along in its first week. Mostly I love it. Monday night's episode was one of the best ever, due partly to its focus on Captain Awesome and how he's dealing with his knowledge about Chuck's spy career. I love the dynamic between Chuck and Awesome now.
But I had a problem with the season premiere and the ham-fisted way it undid a lot of changes made in last season's finale. I don't have strong feelings about the specific plot points (in fact, I'm glad that Morgan and Big Mike will be around more this season) and I don't know how the writers could have reversed everything that they did with more finesse; I just wish that they had.

I had some ambivilance about season 2's finale as well, but I decided that the writers for the finale had painted themselves into a corner and had to do a lot of wiggling to get out of it. I think Chuck was MORE than redeemed on Monday and I like his new skills (and his either lack of/or unwillingness to use them properly).
Either way, I'll be watching!
