Review: Chuck S03E10 - Chuck Versus The Tic Tac


There's no show on the air that changes it's game as much and with such convincing attitude as Chuck. Whether it's moving characters to Africa, promoting them, vanishing them to the background or inserting your main characters in kung-fu skills, this show pulls it off. And no matter how sure you are that all will end well, at the time, it feels like everything is about to be lost.

This week we get some serious Casey background and it is as crazy and shocking as anything. We find out about his connections with The Ring, whether he has a love life and where his loyalties lie. For a character that has been a blessing third wheel to the show's core male and female lead, we know awful less about him. Where did he come from, why does he do the things we do? 'Chuck Versus The Tic Tac' covers it all, but leaves enough open for future.
Without getting into too much spoilery waters, Awesome and Ellie are still twist on whether to leave for Doctors Without Borders, while Morgan is adjusting to knowing Chuck's secret in his own special way. There was no room for Nerd Herders, but the amount of sensation makes quit up for it.
Impossible missions, shocking twists, serious character development and a fearless moment of insanity, brings this episode to one of the best non-sweep episodes this season.

But seriously, if all of these twists are just for regular episodes, what in Lords name should we shape up for the season finale? Brace yourself, it's going to be one hell of a ride.
