Line 28:
* [[Ascended Fanon]]: Morgan's [[Fan Nickname]], "The Beard", gets referenced several times, most notably in the episode title "Chuck Versus the Beard".
* [[Directed by Cast Member]]: Zachary Levi (Chuck) directed "Chuck Versus the Beard" in Season Three, "Chuck Versus the Leftovers" in Season Four, and "Chuck Versus the Hack Off" in Season Five.
* [[Executive Meddling]]: The third and fourth seasons have suffered somewhat from pacing issues, most of which can be attributed to the network holding off on ordering anything beyond the initial thirteen episodes until well after they are plotted out (which is why the thirteenth episodes of both seasons are [[Wham! Episode|wham episodes]]; they were also designed to be [[Grand Finale|Grand Finales]] meant to end the show). The third season, while picked up, was given an additional six episodes as opposed to the standard nine, and as such required some condensation of the arc storyline into a shorter season. The fourth season has had the opposite treatment, where it has been given an additional eleven episodes as opposed to the standard nine. [[Cursed with Awesome|Oh, no.]]
* [[Fake American]]: Yvonne Strahovski is Australian, and briefly [[How's Your British Accent?|uses her real accent]] while Sarah is masquerading as an Aussie.
** Strahovski is actually Polish-Australian; English is her second language. Of course, Sarah spoke Polish in at least one episode.
* [[Fan Nickname]]:
** Yvonne Strahotski.
** Fans also christened Morgan "The Beard", which stuck.
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]:
** [[Scrubs|Gift Shop Girl]] (after dyeing her hair black) is Chuck's sister.
Line 42 ⟶ 46:
** Volkoff is [[James Bond]] and [[Doctor Who|Rassilon]].
** [[Reaper|The Devil]] is Volkoff's lawyer.
** The character "Greta" is [[Attack of the Show|Olivia Munn]], [[Firefly|River Tam]], [[The Man Your Man Could Smell Like]], and [[
** [[Superman Returns|Superman]] is Daniel Shaw.
** [[Smallville|Lana Lang]] is Hannah.
Line 60 ⟶ 64:
*** Also: [[Freddie Wong]], as [[The Danza|Freddie]], a fellow hacker.
** Casey Hendershot, [[Deadliest Warrior]] expert, appears twice as a mook. An Iranian villain from "Chuck Versus the A-Team" was (ironically) the lead IDF simulation actor.
* [[I Knew It!]]:
** Who is Orion? {{spoiler|[[Luke, I Am Your Father|Stephen Bartowski]]}}.
** In Season Three, even Morgan knew {{spoiler|Shaw lived. Come on, he was shot and fell in a river}}.
* [[McLeaned]]: {{spoiler|Bryce Larkin, [[Killed Off for Real]]}} at the end of Season Two when he [[White Collar|had a pilot picked up elsewhere]].
* [[No Export for You]]: Want the show on Blu-Ray? You'll have to import the releases from America.
* [[The Other Darrin]]: Maybe for Diane Beckman. The NSA's (unnamed in the episode) representative in the pilot was played by Wendy Mackenna, who was replaced by Bonita Friedericy from Episode 2 onwards. [[Word of God]] is undecided if they're the same person.
* [[Screwed by the Network]]:
** Rather, "Screwed By The Writers Guild of America" in Season 1 - ''Chuck'', whilst not being a major hit, was a surprise hit for NBC and subsequently received a full season order. Unfortunately, this came during the strike and production on the season wasn't resumed when the strike ended.
Line 71 ⟶ 79:
** Chuck allows Jill to escape at the end of Season 2, complete with a diamond engagement ring used for part of the cover, and her fate is never addressed for the rest of the series. Word of God is that she would have been brought [[Back for the Finale]], but they ran out of time and money for it.
** Apparently, Devon (Captain Awesome) was supposed to be a limited character who was supposed to turn out to be an enemy operative towards the end of season one. However, his popularity led to the idea being dropped and Awesome becoming a series regular. The idea was recycled into Jill and re-recycled into an arc in Season 3 where The Ring ''thinks'' Devon is the resident spy in the Bartowski family.
