CHUCK Returns Tonight! With Mark Hamill! We Have a Trailer and Pics


Yes it’s been several months since we left the newlyweds to begin their new life together – with each other and with their new agency, and the new abilities of Chuck’s lifelong buddy Morgan. Do you remember all that happened at the end there? It was kind of an avalanche. Well, they’re now back for a final season to give us one more chance to giggle at the Buy More, Captain Awesome, Big Mike, and Jeffster. Still a little blurry? Here’s that Comic Con video again to help jog your memory about the Morgan part, along with what’s been going on with Morgan since then:

Oh yeah, that’s right. And here’s the official season overview:

This high-concept action comedy follows Chuck Bartowski (Zachary Levi, Tangled) as the Buy More computer geek turned secret agent.   When Chuck unwittingly downloads a database of government information and deadly fighting skills into his head, he becomes the CIA’s most vital secret.  This sets Chuck on a path to become a full-fledged spy, assisted by the stoic Colonel John Casey (Adam Baldwin, Serenity), Chuck’s best friend, Morgan Grimes (Joshua Gomez, Without A Trace), and the CIA’s top agent — and now Chuck’s wife –Sarah Walker (Yvonne Strahovski, Killer Elite).  With the help of this unlikely team and his unorthodox techniques, Chuck is ready to take Operation Bartowski freelance.

Chuck’s spy abilities will be put to a new test when he and his team — now a private security company known as Carmichael Industries — must save mankind without the help of the CIA.   Instead, they’ll use the cover of the Buy More electronics store to fund their own operations, leading to new missions, new stakes, and new obstacles.   With Chuck and Sarah as newlyweds and his family in on his secret, it has never been harder for Chuck to separate his spy life from his personal life.   Featuring an amazing ensemble cast and action unlike anything else on television, there is no mission too impossible for CHUCK.

Also starring are: Sarah Lancaster (What About Brian?) as Chuck’s ever-supportive sister, Ellie; Ryan McPartlin (Living with Fran) as Devon Woodcomb (also known as “Captain Awesome”), Ellie’s husband. Chuck’s Buy More team consists of Big Mike (Mark Christopher Lawrence, The Pursuit of Happyness) and the Nerd Herd, which includes Lester (Vik Sahay, Time Bomb) and Jeff (Scott Krinsky, The O.C.). Chuck is co-created by Josh Schwartz (The O.C., Gossip Girl) and Chris Fedak, and is executive-produced by Schwartz, McG (Charlie’s Angels, Terminator Salvation), Fedak, Robert Duncan McNeill, and Nicholas Wootton. Chuck is produced by Fake Empire, Wonderland Sound and Vision, in association with Warner Bros. Television.

We have another pic from tonight’s episode, along with the official synopsis and a clip. Here you go:

AS CHUCK BEGINS LIFE AS A SPY-FOR-HIRE, HE MUST ADJUST TO HIS NEW BUSINESS, NEW THREATS, AND A NEW INTERSECT — HIS BEST FRIEND MORGAN GRIMES – MARK HAMILL AND CRAIG KILBORN GUEST STAR—Without the Intersect in his head or the support of the CIA, the world of espionage is a much more dangerous place for Chuck Bartowski (Zachary Levi) and his team of freelance spies. To start, Carmichael Industries takes on a slick, rich thief named Jean Claude (guest star Mark Hamill), and a conniving investor, Roger Bale (guest star Craig Kilborn), who has stolen money from some of the world’s most dangerous people. Meanwhile, Morgan (Joshua Gomez) helps Chuck with a special surprise for Sarah (Yvonne Strahovski). Back in the Buy More, Jeff (Scot Krinsky) and Lester (Vik Sahay) have taken things to another level with their latest scheme. Sarah Lancaster and Adam Baldwin also star.

Chuck premieres tonight, October 27 at 8/7c on NBC.
