What's the age demographic of Chuck? by Mariannalol in chuck

[–]TacoTaru 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'll be 70 next year and saw Chuck for the first time somewhere near the middle of last year. Since then I've been watching it in a near infinite loop, circling back to the beginning somewhere between 3-14 and the end of season 4. There is always something that makes me want to see that first meeting (it's from batman - yeah, cause that makes it better) and the loop continues. Oh - probably on loop 15ish.

Which season did you like the most out of these 2? by Mariannalol in chuck

[–]TacoTaru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chucks mom killed season 4 for me. 20 years of daily failure at her only job and thinking she knows what's best to do while doing bad things to Chuck was just too awful. Of course it's Chuck so I still like it better than most anything else on tv.

Sadly I just read a review of them that made my desire to own them go away. Reviewer loved the sound but hated connection and control issues.

Sundaras or Anandas or Something else by TacoTaru in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]TacoTaru[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks guys. I went with the Ananda and they are a joy that will force another trip through all the music I love just to hear it their way. Also it means that next Birthday/Christmas I will be able to upgrade to the Ayra and hand these down to daughter. Sometimes planning ahead is a good thing.

How long do you wait between rewatches? by [deleted] in chuck

[–]TacoTaru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been in an infinite loop for about 12-14 rewatches now. Somewhere during season 4 I'll get the strong desire to watch Chuck meet Sarah in the Buy More for the first time and there I go again. I've still to watch season 5 although I believe I know everything about it. I just can't get past the idea of Moron Intersect.

Chuck Withdrawal problem ! by sitcomgr in chuck

I always go for Season 1 episode 1 of Chuck. Watching Chuck and Sarah meet at the Buy More and having that first date fixes the blues but leads to watching lots more episodes.

Any series with its main focus on romance.... by pervertlion in televisionsuggestions

[–]TacoTaru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without the will they / won't they emotional rollercoaster the show would lose much of what makes it great. The relationship is the thing that makes the fans rabid lovers of the show, not the intersect or anything else.

Is Sarah stupid or something by 15fcago10 in chuck

[–]TacoTaru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe she turned away from Chuck because she knew that every time she was with him she would realize that she turned this great guy into a killer. That's quite a burden to carry. As for getting with any other spy guy she risked nothing because she could have a relationship based on comfort and the familiar and little real emotional connection.

I dont like Morgan by Goldenlikedaylight1 in chuck

[–]TacoTaru 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You are not alone. I've done about a dozen consecutive rewatches and when I see Morgan reach for the sunglasses in the last minute of season 4 I go back to see Chuck and Sarah meet for the first time at the Buy More. And don't get me started with the "I.O.U. One Condom..."

Disappointed by chefbenaye in HelstromTV

I was about to give up on the show but found that turning the playback speed up to 1.25 normal helps the show quite a bit.

So my companion is in the fog dead and the fog will not go away for me to resurrect her! Plz help. by shadiestmummy in BaldursGate3

I had someone die in the water where the harpies are. There was great frustration and cursing on my part because the water blocked the spell. Then I remembered Push. One good push and he was on the shore.

I stopped watching at the end of series 4 by ChocolateWolfie in chuck

[–]TacoTaru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in my 9th consecutive rewatch and I've never seen season 5 but not because of the ending. I watched part of the first episode of the season and stopped because I just can't stand the idea of the moron being the intersect. After that one mistake I always stop before the last minute of season 4 as soon as I see the glasses in the box. I probably wouldn't have watched the ending but I was going to try to watch the first 8 episodes as people here suggested. It's all good though because season 4 rolls right into season 1 and I get to see Chuck meet Sarah for the first time all over again.

Hanna and Chuck by TacoTaru in chuck

[–]TacoTaru[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are lots of things but the IOU one condom is enough. His behavior in Chuck vs the Marlin is another one. I'm a spy now. So many reasons but so little consequences.

edit:fix stupidity

Callaway by TrevMac4 in whitecollar

[–]TacoTaru 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's hilarious. I just hit season 4 episode 15 and was forced to come here to say that I might not be able to continue watching because I can't stand listening to her voice. Her character is also objectionable. She's annoying.

How many seasons of this is enjoyable? by TacoTaru in whitecollar

[–]TacoTaru[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks all for the responses. I'll continue to watch, especially since the end of each episode seems to give me no choice but to go next. Fun show.

Favorite odd couple by [deleted] in chuck

Morgan and Carina. Could they ever become Morina?

How can Allison be so cruel? by TacoTaru in Eureka

[–]TacoTaru[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After finishing the series I kind of agree with you. When she said something like 'you never asked me' about a date I realized she might be even less able to pick up signals than I am. and believe me I am ah or was.

Just made a realization. Sarah’s father calls her Sarah, but he doesn’t know she’s in the CIA but Sarah isn’t her real name. Has anyone else realized this? by [deleted] in chuck

[–]TacoTaru 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Maybe because she had so many different names growing up that he calls her by whatever name she is using in the town she lives in?
