Is anyone else totally digging this show? Perfect blend of comedy, *light* drama, and storytelling.

Captain Awesome is my favorite character

Loved it...the showdown with Jeffster playing in the background was classic.

- Trading Scott Bakula for a mysterious mom was a dumb trade.

Agreed on all counts. I guess this was all a way to set Chuck up as the next Orion since he promised to leave the CIA.

Awesome episode.

EPIC.

Wow, wasn't a huge fan of the show when it started. I called it the Voltron syndrome--entertaining episode, but every plot was cookie-cutter and the ending was exactly the same every time.

This second season has been really good and the last few episodes were nothing short of phenomenal. Amazing how much the show has grown up in 2 seasons.

I so love this show. Season finale was fantastic. I'm bummed that they killed off Bakula, though - it was predictable, but still a major downer. Can't wait for season 3...

They opened up flashbacks to childhood for Bakula to show up in though.

Not sure if that's working properly as it's an odd orientation. so:

Finally got around to seeing it (DVR didn't record the first hour, so I caught it on-demand) and I loved the first hour, but the second hour felt flat to me. Maybe that was because the first hour was so great, but for about 30 minutes I was like "hrm". Ellie telling him to quit, and him just giving in without even discussing it bugged me in particular. I really don't like her character now, she doesn't really serve any purpose, especially compared to the way they've developed Morgan and Awesome.

I love the set-up for next season though, and I was glad to see the Buy More go up in flames. I think it was time.

I think they've set Ellie up to develop like Morgan and Awesome. Though, I'd contend that Awesome really hasn't developed much at all.

With the flash backs I think we'll see a lot more character development with her.

But I would agree hour 1 > hour 2.

Listening to a steve austin interview and it sounds like hugo panzer's making an appearance next season; he'd just finished a shoot.
