Ben WhitcombChuck: Chuck Versus the Cougars
October 21st 2008 03:11
I have been dying to get some back story on Sarah. For a while there I actually though they had revealed her real name, but no. I thought the flashbacks scenes were great, especially the very end one. The costume and make-up dept. did a great job making Sarah look 10 years younger and completely opposite of how she looks now. Even though I've been wanting some Sarah back story, it leaves me only wanting more.
I absolutely loved Ben Savage in his guest staring role as Mark Chandler, some one Sarah went to high school with, who ends up in need of the team's protection. I thought Nicole Richie did alright playing his wife, but I think they could have cast someone much better for the role. Maybe I'm just bias, because I really don't like Nicole Richie and I don't think she has any business being in show business. But hey, that's just me.
I do want to mention something. I thought the scene at the end with Chuck and Sarah was very touching helped along by the awesome score. While it was a very touching scene, didn't Chuck just decide, last episode, that he and Sarah have no future together? When that happens you typically spend less time with someone. Perhaps the show is doing it on purpose to illustrate that Chuck can't stay away from Sarah.
I know last week I talked about how I am not enjoying the Buy More subplots. For the most part that is still true this week, but I loved Vik Sahay(Lester Partel) performance in this episode. His scene at the end when he thanks the employees for their help and then his conversation with Morgan in Big Mike's office was extremely heartfelt.
Overall I enjoyed the episode mainly because of the great back story for Sarah and Sahay's performance. The spy part was a little boring, but I loved Chuck's fake spy nickname: Mad Dog.
