Notes[edit]
- ^'Chuck Versus the Third Dimension' originally aired in 3-D, as the name suggests, using the same ColorCode 3-D technology as some of the commercials in Super Bowl XLIII.
- ^'Chuck Versus the Suburbs' was supposed to air after 'Chuck Versus the Best Friend'. The airing order was swapped in the U.S. due to the show being preempted for the Presidential speech, and since 'Suburbs' has a Valentine's day theme, it was aired on the week of Valentine's day.

List of Chuck episodes |
The first season of Chuck originally aired between September 24, 2007 and January 24, 2008. The season, cut short by the Writers' Strike, contains thirteen episodes. It introduced the series' main characters and established the general plot of the title character, Chuck Bartowski, having to adapt to his new life as a spy after the only remaining copy of the U.S. government's spy secrets are embedded into his brain. He is forced to juggle his responsibilities as a spy and the supervisor of a technical support team, called the 'Nerd Herd', at his local Buy More store (a parody of Best Buy).[1] Having become the most important asset of the U.S. government, Chuck is under the constant surveillance of his CIA handler, Sarah Walker, and NSA agent John Casey, who remind him that he cannot reveal his spy life to his sister Ellie, nor his best friend Morgan Grimes.
