New NBC Shows: "Chuck"


Comedic spy thriller from the creator of "The O.C." about a computer geek (Zachary Levi) who becomes an unlikely agent after a database of government secrets is downloaded into his brain.




When Chuck opens an e-mail subliminally encoded with government secrets, he unwittingly downloads an entire server of sensitive data into his brain.

Now, the fate of the world lies in the unlikely hands of a guy who works at Buy More. Instead of fighting computer viruses, he must fight assassins and international terrorists.


With the government's most precious secrets in Chuck's head, Major John Casey (Adam Baldwin, "My Bodyguard") of the NSA assumes the responsibility of protecting him.

Bottom line: This jake 2.0. inspired pilot is so silly that it could actually work. But how long till the novelty wears off?

I wonder if this is the show Adam Brody (the OC) got offered and declined.

I really like the concept of this show (even more than Bionic Woman).

You know, this is really so Jake 2.0 when I first heard of this concept show. I was like...hmmm...even cute Christopher Gorham could barely save Jake 2.0, I don't know if Zachary Levi can save Chuck, but we'll see.
