Read all about the CHUCK panel at Comic-Con over at Ducky Does TV!

Still loving this damn show and seriously Zachary Levi is going to be a frakkin’ rockstar!

I leave in a mere 5 hours for sunny San Diego where I’ll probably see no sun or feel no summer loving as I’ll be spending all of my time inside the San Diego Convention Center with 200,000 of my closest geek friends.

COMIC-CON 2007 begins tomorrow and I’m there all weekend with GMMR and some other TV Bloggers for the biggest group of television panels a fan could dream of.

Want LOST scoop? Heroes Spoilers? Supernatural Hotties? Battlestar’s Final Season Spoiler? The dish on new shows like Pushing Daisies, Chuck, Bionic Woman, Reaper, Moonlight, Journeyman, and many more? Want a podcast chock full of these goodies? Well, keep checking back all weekend as I’ll try and post some updates each night.

Want to follow me all day, Thursday through Sunday while I try and get Lee Pace naked? Follow me on TWITTER! There’s also a Twitter panel on the right hand sidebar. Check back for updates throughout the day, all day, all weekend!

While I’m gone, please head on over to my new site… DUCKY DOES TV! I’m in the midst of moving all posts there so that will be Ducky’s new home very very very soon! Let me know what you think. I love the new layout and I’m still working on all the content so bear with me.

May the force be with you or something dorky like that!

Apparently NBC’s screwball mix-mash “I’m making it up as I go along” karaoke show THE SINGING BEE hosted an NBC All-Star Karaoke Match and CHUCK’s Zachary Levi walked away with the trophy.

CHUCK (airing on NBC) from the warped mind of Josh Schwartz is one of my MUST SEE TV shows for the upcoming Fall season. The CHUCK PILOT Review I posted a month or two ago will give you some insight into how amazing this show is and hopefully convince you to watch.

Zachary Levi is just incredible and the TV crash is already starting. I cannot wait to see the whole cast at Comic-Con next week.

Here are pictures from this week’s NBC TCA event in Los Angeles. Zachary Levi, Sarah Lancaster, Adam Baldwin, Yvonne Strezechowski, and Joshua Gomez star.

Zachary Levi and the rest of the cast from CHUCK will be moving to Monday nights at 8pm. CHUCK premieres September 24th at 8pm, followed by HEROES at 9pm, followed by another new series JOURNEYMAN.

As you know, CHUCK was one of my favorite fall pilots and it’s got the ability to be such a fun cutting edge show that I worry about an 8pm timeslot. Plus, this means its going up against Fox’s Prison Break.

I’m not gonna lie, I’m a little worried. With luck, pairing it up with HEROES will help bring a little bit of geek cred to the show. I’ll be covering the CHUCK panel at Comic-Con so please let me know if there are any must know facts you want me to dig for.

Jace over at Televisionary has the full scoop.

We’re back… Podcast #11: Big Brother 8, Burn Notice, Psych, So You Think You Can Dance, Transformers, Rescue Me, Kathy Griffin, Porn, Prison, Ugly Betty, Comic-Con and more.

TV Podcast 11: Ducky and GMMR take a dip in the technical difficulties pool and come out swinging.

BIG BROTHER 8 has arrived and we’re obsessed. We talk spoilers, live feeds, and our favorites. What do we think about BURN NOTICE? PSYCH’s back on USA. KATHY GRIFFIN does gay porn and RESCUE ME forgets to rescue one of their own.

Do we need two karaoke shows? We dissect SPELLING BEE and DON’T FORGET THE LYRICS.

SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE continues to dominate the summer and we talk about our new favorites.

A little TRANSFORMERS talk? Sure, just a bit. COMIC-CON? Yes, we’re now Comic-Con geeks and we preview our trip at the end of July. PUSHING DAISIES, MOONLIGHT, BIONIC WOMAN and other Fall Shows.

CHUCK, NBC’s show about a Nerd who becomes the government’s newest (and saddest) secret weapon is in a word… BRILLIANT! I know you’re thinking that this show was already made and starred cutie patootie Christopher Gorham and was called Jake 2.0 but I promise you this show is nothing like Jake 2.0.

Josh Schwartz has done it again my television obsessed friends! He’s managed one more time to make Geek, Super Chic! While I worshiped the ground Seth Cohen walked upon (Seasons 1-3) and the Emo loving world he created, I don’t think I’ve wanted to kiss Josh Schwartz more than I do right now! While I clearly admit to having a hard on for Josh it’s more out of complete admiration for the things he’s accomplished at such a young age (jealous much?) and for his ability to make the geek the hero in any situation. But enough about the man behind the scenes, let’s briefly get to the man of the hour… CHUCK!

Zachary Levi (previously of the tight sweaters and witty remarks on Less Than Perfect) is unbelievably funny and charming as the reluctant super spy thrown into the high stakes world of assassins and terrorist plots.  He hasn’t had a date in years and he heads up the Nerd Herd at a Best Buy type store.  His sister Ellie (played by the ever so lovely Sarah Lancaster - Madison we miss you) is the forever optimist who needs Chuck to break out of his geeky shell.   Chuck’s best friend is Morgan and the relationship between them is as good and funny as any written by Judd Apatow for Freaks & Geeks (think Haverchuck and Sam) or the 40 Year Old Virgin gang.

I can’t really review the show so I’ll stop here by saying that this show is hysterical and witty and plays on the whole Spy genre without being hokey or gimmicky.  Zachary Levi is incredible and the rest of the cast just seems perfect.  Adam Baldwin guest stars as well, and anytime I can visit Jaynestown (RIP Firefly/Serenity) is a good time!

CHUCK will air Tuesday nights at 9pm on NBC.
