If you’ve been reading Blast-O-Rama long enough, you’d know that while I enjoy a ton of TV shows, only two of them are full on nerd obsessions.
Those being Mad Men and Chuck.
Mad Men, a critical and cable ratings darling, is doing great.
Chuck, however, has had a touch and go run. Their first season was cut short by the ratings strike, the second season aired in full but looked like it wasn’t going to return for a third…
…so I’m super happy to share that Chuck Season 3 Begins on January 1oth, as part of a two night Chuck event on NBC. It’ll be a 2 hour premier on January 10, then starting January 11 Chuck will run Mondays at 8pm, taking over the time slot of Heroes. Worry not, those of you who have stuck with Heroes, it’ll be moving to 9pm.
Chuck looks like a big show for NBC this season, with the official press release showcasing the amazing guest stars for this season. Check it out:
“Chuck” returns with guest stars galore in its third season. These include: Angie Harmon (NBC’s “Law & Order”), who will play Sydney, an enemy operative; Brandon Routh (“Superman Returns”), who is set to play CIA Agent Daniel Shaw; Robert Patrick (“Terminator 2: Judgment Day”) will play Colonel Keller, a soldier and spy from Casey’s past; Kristin Kreuk (“Smallville”), who will portray Hannah — a potential love interest for Chuck; Armand Assante (“Judge Dredd”) as dictator Premier Goya, who is the target of an assassin; Steve Austin (“WWE Smackdown!”) will portray Hugo Panzer, who becomes entangled in Chuck’s first solo mission; and Vinnie Jones (“Snatch”) will play Carl Stromberg, an arms dealer.
