Captain Awesome Can Save Me Anyday

I know NBC's Chuck didn't take off in America last fall. And because of the strike this year, they're giving it another shot in September. Thank goodness as I'd hate to see "Captain Awesome" disappear from the airwaves. He's hot. Ryan McPartlin, a former A & F model (big surprise) and former athlete who decided to give acting a try (another big surprise) is one of the best reasons to watch the show - which we sampled tonight as it's now on our satellite feed from the UK. We're not 100% sold on the show (preferring Pushing Daisies (another show that just launched), but if "Captain Awesome" runs around in his underwear in episode four, well, we'll give it a few more tries.
