And yet, as a threat, it's completely ineffectual, since almost the entire season is already written, so there's no way for the ratings to impact the writers. All it can do is screw the show over for renewal.
Fortunately, I think the show is in a better position for renewal than last year - or rather, NBC is in a much worse position. With the Leno failure, they've now got 5 hours of programming to fill, and not a lot of shows ordered to fill it. Chuck is performing comparatively well in the ratings, so unless some idiots decide to boycott, NBC should see the value in keeping it around.
