Will the new season of Chuck see the closing of the Buy More? Interview with Vic Sahay June 11- TV Guide Chuck could snap back into action sooner than planned, if his increasingly cool services are called for. Though the action-comedy isn’t expected to return until March 2010 — after NBC’s Winter Olympics coverage has wrapped — cast and crew will commence production on the hard-earned Season 3 in August. That way, “We will be ready to come back whenever we’re asked to come back,” Vik Sahay (who plays the Buy More’s morally challenged Lester) said during a visit with TVGuide.com. “And that’s good to know.” What’s also good to know is that Chuck’s 13-episode order could be super-sized if the series returns to strong ratings. “That’s the hope,” says Sahay. “[NBC boss Ben Silverman] said he’ll push us into the summer with a back nine [order], so we’re planning on making the shows that good.” Season 3, of course, offers a special promise in that Chuck now can “flash” on skills — all together now: “I know kung fu” — as well as names and places. But how exactly will that game-changing twist amp up the new episodes? Sahay couldn’t share specifics, but said, “What I admire about [cocreators] Josh [Schwartz] and Chris [Fedak] and the writers is how they put together shows that move things forward. And [Chuck's new ability] is going to make things hilarious… and wild.” NEW TODAY From TV GUIDE Chuck’s hard-earned and well-deserved renewal did come with a small price. NBC’s action-comedy now needs to be a leaner, mean kung fu-fighting machine. Will that bit of belt-tightening result in less of the Buy More crowd? Vik Sahay, who plays Buy More employee Lester, tackles that question in his TVGuide.com video Q&A — but his outlook is far from bleak. Other topics covered include: • Who gave Vik the good news about Chuck’s pick-up, and how did he react? • Why does Chuck strike such an emotional chord with viewers? • What was Vik’s take on the season finale’s game-changing twist? • Will Sarah leave the Orange Orange to sell subs for Subway? And might Lester be at her side? • And Sahay surveys the outside chance that Chuck could return to our screens sooner than March 2010.
