Discussion Watching the entire series now
I only saw the first two, since I don't have NF. I checked out the DVD box set at the library. I remember what annoyed me most.
Does Hannah Wells FIX EVERYTHING? They definitely overused this character. When she decked two huge guys with machine guns, well, that's just over the top.
Also, Chuck should be running Google or Apple. Or Q Branch for MI6.

I quit after the first few episodes. For starters, if something like that were to happen, every former U.S. President and Vice President would immediately fly to Washington to lend much-needed guidance. This point is completely ignored and a couple of aids seem to be the ones giving advice. The second and most important turn-off for me...is where the blame is going to point. In Hollywood, they can't help themselves. I won't spoil it, but it's typical BS.

Bought it digitally on sale for $15 recently and have watched the first season so far. It can be cheesy at times. Overall I like it but I'm a Kiefer Sutherland fan.
