Goodbye Chuck

2 comments

I just finished watching Chuck vs Goodbye, Season 5, Episode 13, and no matter how much I told myself I am not gonna cry, my tears suddenly fell one after when Chuck makes Sarah remember him. I really pity Chuck and wanted to kill Quinn with my own hands! I was sniffing and trying to hold back when Chuck said that a nerd like him can make her happy, and Sarah said sorry and she just did her job. I just can't contain my tears and they immediately run like stream. My tears finally dried out after the air plane scene and promise again not to cry again, but it all falls down when John Casey hugged Chuck. I just can't help it, and I know I am a mess. Looking at that scene, I remember the time when Chuck said "You care about me. Admit it. You feel all warm and mushy about me. Go ahead. Say it. You love me, John Casey" on season two, and here right in front of me Casey hugging Chuck on his free will.

Then Alex and Morgan's moving in and Casey's goodbye to them. After that the scene when the Awesome's will move to Chicago. Its goodbye after goodbye, and I just contain the emotions dwelling up on me. I hate goodbyes, no matter how good may outcome from that. My tears are falling like stream when I was watching the last 10 minutes. Sarah sitting on the sand, the same way Chuck did on season 1, episode 1 when he do not know what he needed to do because he think he's in a mess. I totally love whoever think of that episode, and the scene from each season is amazing. If the producer wanted to make everyone cry, I can tell that they did a good job. I was trying to control myself and not to cry that much because I am going to awake my cousin, but I cannot conceal it. I was bawling and you can hear my sobs. And I bet, every time I will hear Rivers and Roads by The Head and The Heart.

I was four year late in Chuck fandom.I know about this great season 3rd quarter of last year when my officemate asked me to try it and they actually told me I'm going to love it. Just a year on this, and here I am crying as if there will be no tomorrow. Last year, I often told myself never to be bothered by fictional things, I shouldn't cry over a drama that will end, or someone who do not know anything about me. But I cannot help it with Chuck, I was on an emotional wreck state when I first watch Chuck. That time I only wanted to have some escape to reality until I think what I wanted to do with my life and break my Korean series. I never think that this show will really inspire me big time.

I remember crying last September because I was watching the first season of Chuck and how uncertain he is on his present and future. I just found myself on his shoes, wondering what life is in store for me today and tomorrow. As I watched each episode, I slowly realized that I wanted to be him, so I need to pick up myself and start to think what I wanted while he is waiting for Sarah to admit her feeling.

Last year September, I recalled that my mom asked me why my eyes are glued on the TV on an action series. I am not the type to watch so much action, but it is a different story when we talked about spy. I love spy, I always make sure to watch a movie if its about a spy. I also love romantic comedies, and I do not like overly dramatic plot.And I bet, all of you knows that Chuck is a bit of everything, and its perfect for my taste. I actually do not hope to find something that will perfectly fit for a series that I will love. So I told my mom that it wasn't just any action series. 

I enjoy every minute of watching Chuck. I cannot count how many times I cried about him and Sarah on each Season. From their cover relationship, to their cover kiss and to the time when Sarah's emotions are escaping little by little by her control and Chuck is there wanting her to fully let go and accept it. Chuck and Sarah's love story is amazing, at least on my eyes. I love how Chuck patiently wait for Sarah, and how many times he understood her. Sarah is one amazing woman, and its really difficult on her part to easily down her defense and let her emotions shows. I love how human they are, i mean you can easily understand why they are like that. I enjoy their pull and push relationship. I was crying as well when Chuck and Sarah got married. Because of this character, I now ship Zac and Yvonne really hard.

One great thing I notice about Chuck is you will love each character and their relations to each other. I will not lie if I say I really love every Chuck and Casey or Casey and Morgan episode. I seriously love John Casey. I was crying as well when he form a new team when he felt left out with Sarah and Chuck. I wanted to hug him, if only he wouldn't shot me instantly. 

No matter how annoying Morgan is, I learn to like him. At first I wanted to punch him for being the annoying little fellow, but I love him now, and I really like that Alex will be in his hand. Casey approved him, I can never disagree. And even I found Jeffster a creep, the show will never be as much as funnier as it is without them, Big Mike and the Buymorians!

When I say Chuck cast, I should never forgot the Awesomes and how i love Baby Clara. The hospital episode when Chuck proposed to Sarah and baby Clara was born. I was really happy that time, and remember laughing when Baby Clara cried when Casey smiled and immediately turn police face.

There are many moments that I cried and laugh with them. I love Chuck because the whole story, cast and fans are amazing. I was crying aswell when I read that Chuck was saved by Subway Sandwich and the fans dedication. I never like a series because it its too mainstream, I often found myself turned off by popular series because my expectation suddenly rises and found myself disappointed by majority of it. But on Chuck case, I was wondering why it was so underrated when it should be one of the most popular series out there.But I cannot cry over spilled milk now, and I am so thankful that Chuck have a dedicated Chucksters :) and I am so happy to be one of it. I am relatively new, but people are really welcoming and so great that I am also crying because we need to find a new mission.

Though I know this season have so many flaws,and how most of the time it wasn't Chuck-centric and told the story of the people around him. But they end it so beautifully. It make me think that Chuck and Sarah's love is magical, the kind of one in a million. I already said it but I REALLY love the part when Sarah is sitting the same way Chuck did on first season, and said this 
Chuck, tell me our story.”
“Well, it started with a guy who worked at Buy More, and then one day an old college friend of his sent him an email that was filled with secrets. And then the next day his life really changed when he met a spy named Sarah. And he fell in love.” Tears are flowing while I was watching.Though did not remember fully, but the fact that she remember few detail is enough. Chuck made her fall in love with him and made her realize that he is everything she needed in her life. Chuck can make her remember again. And soon they will have their little super heroes.

They said that you know you read a good book if you feel that a good friend is saying goodbye. For me, you know you watch a good series, if you cannot easily said goodbye to it, and most of the Chucksters even the cast and crew cannot easily say Goodbye Chuck without tearing or sobbing, and I am one of them.

This is a great post, I have just finished watching the series and I don't know what to do, it's so sad that it has ended :'( I have heard that they are going to make a movie to show where everyone one are, I Really hope that they make one because it will bring me the closure that I need ;)

I just want to tell you how much I relate to your post. I am 6 years late from this fandom but I am crying bucket after bucket of tears. I felt really bad with the ending for I really loved how their relationship grew from time to time. I felt like it was all for naught when Sarah forgot everything they went through together. I JUST CAN'T MOVE ON :(
