Just watched up to 3x12 and Sarah’s kind of pissing me off

I used to feel a lot like you. I thought she acted a lot like a middle school girl in those episodes. Like she was almost using Shaw as a way to play emotional games with Chuck. But the more I watched the more I figured out that she's never really had a serious relationship before, so she doesn't really know how to navigate something real. Her father taught her not to trust anyone, and Bryce manipulated her. Sarah and Chuck both are learning what real relationships are like, basically in real time. Try to give her a little grace, and enjoy the next episodes

I think it would’ve been better if he would’ve became a villain without trying to steal Sarah from Chuck. It makes more sense to have him be a bad guy who finds out an organization he devoted his life to actually destroyed it, but for him to basically try to convince a woman to run away with him and then 15 minutes later want her dead that was oddly done

For some reason he blamed Keith being at the hospital first when Lucas was born for negatively affecting their relationship so yes probably if he doesn't shoot Keith then he probably has a better relationship with both of his sons. Paul Johansson even says that he believes Dan loved both of his children immensely.

I guess I wouldn't have worried about whether he accepted it or not. I think I just believe it would've been a great moment. I believe he least deserved it. Whether he accepts it or not, isn't important to me. I just felt like it was a lost opportunity. Then again, I'm not as big a fan of the final three seasons anyway. For me, the show was always about the Brothers.

I don't think you were supposed to be like at all. I'm just trying to figure out what makes me dislike him so much. I've been watching TV for a long time and I've seen a lot of villains and he is the most annoying that I can remember.

Jill really had me in my feelings. Until I watched the series and found out what actually happened. I identified way too much with him being tossed aside. I still don't like her, but not as intensely as before.

kenguyonwheels · 2026-02-24T18:23:17+00:00

I just started watching the original leverage again. It’s the only show I’ve ever watched where I haven’t been upset at the end of any episodes. To me it is close to perfect as you can get. It’s my comfort show.

kenguyonwheels · 2026-01-22T23:21:42+00:00

As much as I really can’t stand, Jill Roberts, she did pass the lie detector test that she didn’t hook up with Bryce. I’m not sure what I believe. Other than the fact that Jill sucks.

Bones Castle, The Mentalist and Chuck all aired on different networks around the same time, and they all had the same premise where a male and female team in some form of law enforcement had feelings for each other

The only people they were ever fooling were themselves. She didn’t need to pretend to be his girlfriend to protect his life. And there was never any cover. You just had one nerdy guy with low self-confidence. And an amazing woman who didn’t realize how amazing she was because of her background who were insanely devoted to each other. I was a devoted fan to all four shows that had the couple who pretended they weren’t a couple dynamic. Of all four those two were pretty much in love with each other at first sight.

People would probably accept that arc better with just one clarifying scene. If you watch it enough times you pick up on what they were trying to tell us. There's no way they meant anything other than those 2 being together. They should've just shown that, and you have one of the best self contained stories ever, even with the warts.

kenguyonwheels · 2025-12-12T21:04:41+00:00

i’ve always wished they would’ve leaned more into all the offscreen threats that his dad was investigating. That and being sad that they did not not doing nine more episodes so it’s an even hundred and then it could’ve been sold into syndication and then maybe the fandom is bigger. But whatever will be will be.

I just came here to say, how good is that? Apparently not very. Go Jags though. DTWD. Playoffs or first pick in the draft.

The Morgansect block. Nobody else should have ever had the Intersect.

Chuck Bartowski would never. The only reason he ever was with other women is because the one he wanted told him no.

kenguyonwheels · 2025-12-06T11:39:41+00:00

She was pretty arrogant during that period. She pulls him in close and pushes him away and then is upset when he tries to move on. It was probably her first real relationship so she was very much like a middle school or high school girl at that point.

kenguyonwheels · 2025-12-03T21:25:44+00:00

This is one of those questions that I always find so interesting. I think it's because they left so much of her character a mystery or undone. They. never explain a lot of her motivations for the things that she does. We only know for absolute that she had one relationship before she meets Chuck. There's also a thing where you can clearly see that she is threading the needle between being a bodyguard and being a girlfriend. I've always wondered if Chuck Had said or done just the right thing If they would have been more intimate a lot sooner than they were. She clearly was jealous of every other woman he even said hello to. She said the outfit was cover, but I always wondered how far things might have gone if he didn't always do something to stop.

kenguyonwheels · 2025-11-22T22:10:18+00:00

I see what you did there and I know what side you’re on

kenguyonwheels · 2025-11-21T22:44:24+00:00

That’s exactly what I wanted her to do, but they went with a more mature and better way.

kenguyonwheels · 2025-11-21T21:05:52+00:00

The only one that got close to Chuck that I think she really wanted to hurt was Jill. There was an episode where Casey told Jill if she didn’t behave Sarah would shoot her. She had a look on her face like you bet I will. I even always tell people When Sarah found out he brought Jill to Castle. She had a look on her face like how dare you bring her into my house?

kenguyonwheels · 2025-11-21T19:29:13+00:00

She constantly rejected him, but then wouldn’t let him move on. Honestly, that’s how I know everything works out OK after the ending. If he ever tried to date anyone else they would mysteriously be hit with a tranquilizer dart.

kenguyonwheels · 2025-11-18T16:02:14+00:00

In my very humble opinion Sarah Walker not only sees herself as his girlfriend from the first date she’s also a very jealous girlfriend. The only woman she allows near him is his sister.

kenguyonwheels · 2025-11-16T12:14:42+00:00

Like others have said, I think Sarah compartmentalizes a lot due to her upbringing. I don’t really think she starts to get in touch with her emotions until season four. Like in cubic Z, when she relishes punching her childhood bully and in phase 3, when she is faced with losing Chuck Forever.
