I dont know about you, but NBCs official renewal ofChuckhas been the highlight of upfront week for me.
(ABCs cancellation ofAccording to Jimfinishes averyclose second.)
Will a tighter budget lead to a less awesome (and populated) show?
Does the massive Subway deal mean an end to Sarahs yogurt shop?
Will the midseason launch kill the shows momentum?
Will Chuck and Sarah start dating forreal?
Will exec producer Josh Schwartz answer all of these and then some in the following exclusive Q&A?
I can tackle that last one: Yes!
NBC said the shows budget will remain unchanged from last season.
Thats how it was presented to me.
Thats as far as I know.
How will the cuts affect what we see?
SCHWARTZ:Hopefully, you wont be able to tell.
I dont think the look
of the show is going to change.
I heard Julia Ling [Anna] might not return.
We have plans for Anna to return.
Has she been taken off contract?
SCHWARTZ:We actually havent finalized all of our actor deals yet.
Its all being sorted out.
Will the shows central trio be in every episodes?
Chuck, Sarah, and Casey are in all episodes.
Are you concerned at all about the show being off the air for 10 months?
I really believeChuckis the
little show that could.
And well come up with fun ways of stoking the fans throughout
the fall.
We also have something very, very fun planned for Comic-Con
this year.
How about a season 3 spoiler in honor of the shows renewal?
What does it mean for Chuck
[and] how will it manifest itself?
Will Chuck and Sarah start the season off as a full-fledged couple?
SCHWARTZ:[The rest of this answer will run in this weeks Ask Ausiello, posting tonight].
SCHWARTZ:Gosh, isnt it more fun to tease?
SCHWARTZ:Teasing is what youre good at.
