Season 3
No More Mr. Nice Spy.
Our favourite secret agent is back in the one-hour action-comedy series. Chuck Bartowski (Zachary Levi) returns as a regular guy, working at a Buy More electronics store, who becomes the government’s most vital secret agent.
Chuck is transformed into the Intersect 2.0 after another data download into his brain. This time around, he not only knows government secrets, but he also is well equipped with deadly fight skills.
Chuck has the potential to become a real agent, but he has one problem - his emotions.
Now he faces the battle of keeping his emotions in check in order to protect himself and the people around him.
The ever stoic Colonel John Casey (Adam Baldwin) returns with partner Sarah Walker (Yvonne Strahovski), one of the CIA's top agents and Chuck's dream girl.
As Chuck assumes his new role as the Intersect 2.0, Casey and Sarah need to protect him but also help him become the agent he is destined to be.
Also starring are Joshua Gomez as Morgan Grimes - Chuck's best buddy; Sarah Lancaster as Chuck's ever-supportive sister Ellie; Ryan McPartlin as Devon Woodcomb (also known as Captain Awesome), Ellie's husband.
Chuck's Buy More team consists of Big Mike (Mark Christopher Lawrence) and the Nerd Herd, which includes Lester (Vik Sahay) and Jeff (Scott Krinsky).
Chuck is co-created by Josh Schwartz and Chris Fedak, and is executive-produced by Schwartz, McG, Fedak, Allison Adler and Matthew Miller. Chuck is produced by College Hill Pictures, Wonderland Sound and Vision, in association with Warner Bros. Television.
