We had the pleasure of talking with Chuck co-creator and Executive Producer Chris Fedak and cast member Josh Gomez about the upcoming Season 4 premiere next Monday night. The two talked with us about what's in store and teased us with a bit more about Greta... Check it out below!


So obviously the Chuck fans are very excited you have another season but I was also thinking maybe people who haven’t watched Chuck before will say, you know, this Chuck thing has stuck around. Maybe I should check it out. What are new viewers going to get out of the fourth season if this is the first time they see it?

Chris Fedak: They’re going to get a big, exciting action comedy television show. I think we still design the show even though we have a mythology and we have a big story going on is that you can sit down and watch the show on Monday night and really kind of get like, you know, you’re going to know where you are.

You’re going to know, you know, the stakes and the story and we kind of remind you and get you back into, you know, where we left off last season and then we’re off to the races.

We’re off to like, you know, the comedy world of the Buy More and then the kind of big excitement that we bring, you know, in the spy land and I think that, you know, that’s part of the fun of bringing in someone like Dolph Lundgren or Olivia Munn in our season opener or Harry Dean Stanton is that, you know, it’s a fun way back into the world.

And so I think new viewers if they decide to just start watching on Monday night, I think they’re going to get a really fun, big story that anybody can kind of jump right into; however, I would also I’m recommending, you know, going back and buying our DVDs but it’s not necessary.

Josh Gomez: We’ll recommend it.

Are there any cool new action scenes you can preview to get people excited?

Chris Fedak: Cool new action scenes. Well, we have, you know, I’ll just talk about our first couple of episodes but in our first episode Chuck Versus the Anniversary, we have some really kind of great action stuff.

We wanted to go into the kind of the classic spy world of Russian bad guys so we have Chuck and another fellow by the name of Morgan Grimes getting into some trouble inside a Russian bad guy base and it’s really fantastic.

And it’s not only just great action but you have Zach and Josh just being so funny together. One of the things that we really love is their kind of great repartee. I want to do an old reference to Hope and Crosby. It’s like they’re just so much fun to watch together. Sorry, went deep into the majors on that reference.

That was for TCM crowd but that’s a great episode and then our second episode for those requiring some Sarah Walker action, we have a fantastic site, a wonderful site that takes place in Milan during fashion week between (Carolina Dracova) and Yvonne Strahovski. It’s one of our best fights yet.

Josh Gomez: Yeah, yeah.

That sounds hot.

Chris Fedak: I can’t say.

Josh Gomez: It’s awesome. Let’s get to Yvonne and the supermodels, please.

Chris Fedak: Quickly and efficiently.

Josh Gomez: As yet.

Chris Fedak: Now we’re just talking to each other, Gomez.

Josh Gomez: Right, no, I realized we're just googling who now Yvonne’s fighting right now.

Josh, the last time we saw you at the end of Season 3, you had blown up the Buy More so...

Josh Gomez: It was an accident.

Are you still part of the spy team after that and what can we look forward to in the new season on Morgan?

Josh Gomez: Yeah, I mean, definitely part of Team Bartowski. I don’t know how much the CIA loves me but Team Bartowski, I suppose, yeah, and I guess the Buy More actually becomes - it’s rebuilt and taken over by the CIA - and Morgan basically kind of becomes the sort of the through there.

He kind of is in charge of keeping the Buy More’s CIA cover so he’s there to kind of make it feel and look and run like a real Buy More. Meanwhile, it’s now I guess owned and operated by the CIA, is that right, Chris?

Chris Fedak: That’s absolutely correct.

Josh Gomez: So yes, yeah, the answer is yes although I’m like, you know, I’m not jumping out of any planes yet or anything like that.

Chris Fedak: But we also, I mean, the other thing we did...

Josh Gomez: There’s, you know, there’s room to grow.

Chris Fedak: One of the things we realized last year is that Josh Gomez is just wonderful in the spy world so we do look forward to bringing him back on missions at some point.
