action sequences were fresh, plot twists were great, and it really encapsulated everything great about the show. the show's got heart.

oh, and is it me or was the whole "if we are indeed going out of business, tell that to our customers" spiel, right after the blatantly obvious subway product placement, was a subtle nod to the Chuck fans who put up with all these concessions to keep the show on the air?

i think nbc markets this show very poorly. they should be trotting out yvonne strahovski's ass all over the late night circuit. this is a great show. i hope they let them get through 5 seasons.
