Bad Show from McG, Josh Schwartz and NBC

If you're looking for quality television with "Chuck", you are going to be very disappointed.

Then again, if you're looking for quality television coming from Josh Schwartz or McG, you are clearly barking up the wrong tree. After all, Josh Schwartz brought us the equally awful Gossip Girl and the brain-dead The OC. McG is infamous for the ridiculous Fastlane (Fox's biggest bomb of a few years back) and the aforementioned The OC.

Is it any surprise that this show is boring and unfunny to the point of annoyance.

After all Schwartz and McG trade on being seen by executives as being "edgy". NBC executives have apparently bought into that nonsense.

Sadly, this show is still in production and it may be "edgy", but it's certainly not TV you must see.
