Some of you probably heard about Chuck, the NBC show, for those of you who eventually don’t know what I’m talking about, this show tells the story of a computer geek guy called... Chuck (who would guess…) that inadevertly downloads critical government secrets into his brain, turning his life upside down.
This comedy-action show won the hearts of many loyal viewers by beeing able of mix great comedy with some drama, twists and turns and a lot of surprising revelations. Chuck’s evolution as a character, from just-a-guy to spy, kept it real for the fans, because even as a spy the creators didn’t try to change the nature of the character, and this is the real interesting part of the story, Chuck is still the guy who won’t use the guns, who cares, who believe in the goodness of people.
Once it aired, in 2007, Chuck received a lot of positive reviews by critics, but in 2009 the show was “on the buble” (between cancelation and renovation) due to his low ratings.
Fans all over the world start then a huge campaign to “Save Chuck” that was supported by a lot of known faces, including the actors from the show. Every year now, fans have to campaign for a new season, and this year is no difference. Save Chuck Season 5 is already on going, and fans all over the world try to save (again) this show.
I am not really aware of how the ratings for the shows are measure (can I even say measure?), but I believe that a show that can assemble so many fans is worth keeping, I don’t think any other show, that I recall, was able to get this much attention and commitment from both fans, actors and creators.

So for those who don't know the show I highly reccomend it. It's a fun show, great to see with the family or friends, or even by yourself. Starring Zachary Levi, Yvonne Strahovski, Adam Baldwin and Joshua Gomez, among a great cast.
I am a Fan, IGiveAChuck, I want Save Chuck, how about you?
