Blog 1: my opinion on the tv show "Chuck"

Chuck is an action-comedy packed, mixed with a little drama, TV program from the United States of America, and it is created by Josh Schwartz and Chris Fedak. The show premiered on September 24, 2007 on NBC and is shot by College Hill Pictures, Wonderland Sound and Vision and Warner Bros. Television.

The show is about an “average computer whiz” named “Chuck” who works at the Buy More, a local electronics retailer store, as a computer expert. He has a best friend named “Morgan” who also works at the Buy More, and a sister named “Ellie” who is a doctor and looks out after Chuck’s best interest and wants to find him a girlfriend. One day Chuck receives an email with a secret message from an old college buddy who works for the CIA. The secret message in the email contains the remaining only copy of the world’s greatest spy secrets which get imprinted into Chuck’s memory. Now, being a valuable asset the CIA and NSA sends 2 agents, Major John Casey who goes undercover by working at the Buy More and Sarah Walker who runs a food shop across the Buy More, to protect Chuck and use his knowledge to help eliminate terrorists and assassins. While doing so, Chuck remains struggling trying to find a balance of his normal life at the Buy More and with espionage, guns and action while on a mission with Casey and Sarah.

This TV program has it all: hot chicks, humor, bullets flying and drama. It is like the movie “Employee of the month” mixed with “James Bond”. However, every now and then you might find the show to be a little repetitive, as in another female villain appears etc. But in short, every episode of “Chuck” is packed with comedy and action, filled with suspense and fun which make it a pleasure to watch them each week. What could you possibly ask for more?

It looks like an great comedy! Well written review, no grammatical mistakes and it's interesting to read about electronics. Especially the European Union is strictening cyber-crime. You could upload a example of youtube.com and put it on your blog. As readers see the main characters of the TV-program...

The usual but it sounds like fun!
I'm not really into TV shows but when it comes to comedy I like to compare everything with Scrubs, which is definitely my favorite. I haven't seen this one yet but maybe I'll give it a try.
