This week we talk about the 3rd episode from writing team Rafe Judkins and Lauren LeFranc, Chuck vs. the Living Dead.

Plus, we deal with the issue on everyone’s minds — we are incredibly encouraged at the 4th season renewal but reeling from the number of lost writers because of Chuck’s late pickup by NBC. If you haven’t yet read Gray’s blog on the issue, do yourself a favor and read it.

We also have news, emails, and the last spoilers of the season, as the 2-hour season finale airs this Monday. Check your local listings for air times!

Also, watch for a special podcast right after the finale airs on the West coast… you won’t want to miss it!

Along with the exciting news of Chuck’s season 4 renewal came news of a different kind: Chuck’s writers room, which had already lost senior writer and executive producer Scott Rosenbaum to be showrunner of the new remake of ‘V,’ has lost not one, not two, but three other writers.

Thursday, it was announced that senior writer and executive producer Matt Miller has been hired as the showrunner of ‘Human Target.’

Friday, we learned that senior writer and executive producer Ali Adler had accepted a position on the new ‘No Ordinary Family.’

Late Friday, Gray broke the news that writer Phil Klemmer would be leaving Chuck to write for another new show.

What does this mean?

Gray has pulled from his experience in the business and relationships with these writers, and has written a very detailed and informative blog post about this issue.  We urge you to read the article, as well as the comment thread, and post any questions you have.

Please click here or on the photo at right to access the article.

We’ve made history, Chuck fans… Chuck has been renewed for a 4th season! As far as we’re aware, this is the first time a show saved by a fan campaign was ever renewed for an additional season. Every one of you was a part of it!

To help us celebrate, we have an exclusive interview with the incredibly fun writing team of Rafe Judkins and Lauren LeFranc, who brought us the intense Chuck vs. the Tic Tac and gleeful Chuck vs. the Honeymooners, as well as this Monday’s upcoming episode, Chuck vs. the Living Dead.

Find out more details about the renewal as they happen at ChuckTV.net.

Did you want to go to Wonder-Con, but couldn’t make it? Experience it here! We have a massive 90 minute report from Mel about her trip, including a whole hour of footage from the press room and Chuck panel.

What did Zac say that made Adam blush? How does Joshua Gomez feel when a fan recognizes him on the street? What is Chris Fedak thinking when he writes a finale? How does Zac feel about spoilers? And what run-on joke might get Zac, Joshua, and Adam in trouble when Yvonne finds out about it?

Chuck returns at 8pm on April 26th. In the meantime, we hope this keeps you busy!

Talk about a freakish bubble of awesomeness! In a very relaxed and informative interview, Chuck writer / executive producer Matt Miller tells us all about his path to Chuck, and some great behind the scenes perspective.

What was the most challenging scene in “Chuck vs. the American Hero” and why? Why are “bottle episodes” often the best? How did he go from waiter to TV show creator when he was only in his twenties? And which Chuck writer was his roommate in the late 1990′s?

Scott Rosenbaum has moved on to become the showrunner of V, but he’s left behind some of the best episodes of Chuck, including Chuck vs the Sizzling Shrimp, Chuck vs Santa Claus, and most recently Chuck vs the Beard.

It was a pleasure to speak with him, and learn about his passion for Chuck and also for V. He also shares some cool stories about bringing Morgan into the spy world, and working with Zachary Levi as director.

You can support Scott by watching V on Tuesdays at 10pm on ABC… and of course, please remember to watch Chuck live on Mondays at 8pm on NBC.

Enjoy!

“One Toronto podcaster didn’t just talk about his favourite show.
He may have saved it from the axe”
– Sunday, Jan. 10, 2010 edition of Toronto Star

I’m incredibly pleased to confirm that in today’s Toronto Star, the front page and sixth page of the entertainment section are devoted to Gray, Chuck vs. the Podcast, and Chuck’s return for season 3!

“On the outside, it looks to be about spy stuff but it always ends up
being about the relationships,
at work and at home.”
– Gray Jones

A web version with fewer photos is available online here, for fans who don’t have access to the physical newspaper.  However, most bookstores in Canada sell the Toronto Star, so if you have access, I urge you to buy the paper and see the full article!

“Hosted along with Mel and Liz, the women behind the expansive and exhaustive Chucktv.net website…”

Mel and Liz, ChuckTV.net, and Wendy Farrington all got mentions in the article.  Plus, they interviewed Chris Fedak, both to comment on the podcast story and for a separate piece on Chuck season 3.

Enjoy!

Our first ever interactive podcast features Chuck writer Phil Klemmer and editor Matt Barber!

We took questions by email, live on Twitter, and on our web sites. Gray also answered many questions about his recent L.A. trip… and lots more!

Part 2 of our Comic-Con coverage is our first ever video podcast! We’ve included all of Mel & Liz’s press room interviews with the cast of Chuck and show runner Josh Schwartz. Thanks to Jessica Sisk for shooting and editing the interviews.

Don’t forget to join our “Chuck Me Mondays” group watch, and also please keep up the monthly votes at Podcast Alley. Every one counts!

On the day of the release of his 6-issue Chuck comic compilation, writer Zev Borow talks with us about magazine writing, how he broke into TV, and how writing for Chuck led to the Chuck comic book.

Please consider supporting ChuckTV.net or Chuck vs. the Podcast by ordering the Chuck comic compilation through either web site… it’s currently on sale for only $13.59!

Watch for Mel and Liz at Comic-Con… and listen to the podcast for details about the Chuck meet at the Spaghetti Factory. Gray wishes he could be there!

Hold on to your hats — this week’s podcast features interviews with 16 of the cast and creative team behind Chuck. From London, New York, Toronto, and Los Angeles, they were all eager to reach out and share their gratitude for the fan campaigns, excitement about the finale, and passion for the show.

Hear how they are getting involved too… behind the scenes stories… clues about the finale and their plans for Chuck’s future… and most of all, how you can help NBC make the right decision, and renew Chuck for a third season.

This Monday night is our last chance to boost the ratings before NBC makes their decision, so do whatever you can to get people to watch! And no matter where you are in the world this Monday, go to your nearest Subway and buy a $5 Footlong, fill out a comment card telling them you’re supporting Chuck, and enjoy the sub while you watch the game changing finale!

Visit ChuckTV.net for more details on the campaigns.

We’re finally back, with part 2 of our writers series, featuring Ali Adler!  It’s girls’ night, as Gray is working 90 hour work weeks right now finishing his own TV show.  But look on the bright side, you get to hear 100% female perspective from Mel, Liz, and Ali!

Many apologies from Gray on the lateness of this episode — he had to deal with a sudden family emergency on top of his already swamped schedule.  We’ll be back firing on all cylinders very soon!

Part 1 of our writers series features Phil Klemmer, who also wrote for Veronica Mars.

The 3D return of Chuck is on Monday… do you have your SoBe 3D glasses? If you’re in Canada, Chuck will not be in 3D – unless you are in Toronto and want to come to Gray’s Chuck night!

We also have a 3D contest with a very cool prize donated by Chuck composer Tim Jones, news, a pile of spoilers, and more!

Next up: part 2 of our writers series, featuring Ali Adler. Watch for it in your iTunes next week!
