One of the more interesting shows on the air.

I like this show. I like it for all that is and all that it is not. The show has developed very nicely allowing for some richer character development all down the line. We know that Sara really does care for Chuck but, is torn between her feelings for him and doing her duty. This may sound trite and it is, a little. It's also real. How many times do we, the audience, feel that conflict in our daily lives? Choosing the right thing versus helping a friend... Is it really the right thing if it dehumanizes us? These are questions that are being asked of us when we watch this show. Seeing Morgan move past the "sidekick only" stage has been great. Watching Lester and Jeffrey move into their portion of the show... Deciding that in certain circumstances that Emmett, the BuyMore's Asst Manager is not that bad of a guy, really. And, just watching John Casey played so over the top by Adam Baldwin week after week is enough to drag me back if nothing else did! But, wait! There's more. Seeing Awesome with flaws that make him less Awesome and more human. How many people have that guy for a brother-in-law, already?? The cast is extremely likable and I hope this show is renewed for many seasons. That's my two cents.
