Chuck finale

[next_to_normal]

The series finale of Chuck really needs a proper reaction post, but I am just feeling TOO MANY FEELINGS right now. I am happy and sad and nostalgic and conflicted and flaily.

Anyone? Coherency?

Hahaha, I'm way past the point of paying attention to the plot holes. Chuck has never been the most air-tight thing ever (one TV blogger used to have an ongoing "Chuck Plot Hole of the Week" feature).

Actually, what bothered me a lot was the implication during the finale that the love between Sarah and Chuck was the most important part of the entire series

Yeah. I mean, it doesn't surprise me, because the show has always considered Chuck/Sarah the focal point, the "heart" of the show, so I'm not surprised that the finale and Sarah's memory loss was all about their relationship.

But, you know, one of the saddest moments of the finale, for me, was when Casey was saying goodbye, and he and Chuck have a heartfelt moment and then he turns to Sarah... and she goes to shake his hand like they're mere acquaintances. Which, of course, to her they are, but OMG! Casey - who unequivocally DOES NOT HUG, lol - is actually hurt that Sarah is so impersonal in her goodbye, after five years of working together. That moment said SO MUCH about the characters and how they've ALL changed each other by working as a team, not just Chuck and Sarah's romance.
