Upfront Memories ’08: CHUCK’s Zachary Levi & Yvonne Strahovski
June 24, 2008 by Kath Skerry
Since I don’t want you to forget your favorite TV stars while they on their summer vacation, I’m going to continue to share my best memories and favorite pictures from this Spring’s Network Upfronts.
I’ve already shared my encounters with Joshua Jackson, the cast of THE OFFICE, and my night shimming and shaking with the kids of SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE. And now it’s time to talk super spies.
One of this past year’s hottest shows, and one of my personal favorites, CHUCK, had two break out stars in Zachary Levi and Yvonne Strahovski. And both were there representing their show at the NBC Upfronts held at Rockerfeller Center. I was giddy to meet these pretty people in person (just check out my smile).
There were so many TV stars kickin’ it at the NBC party that I didn’t even know Zachary and Yvonne were there until a bit later in the night. But the minute I spotted them I couldn’t wait to snag a pic. Kelly (my infamous Upfront friend) and I jumped in line and had our moment. And let me just say, that it should be illegal for someone to ever stand next to Yvonne Strahovski – the woman is gorgeous…it just ain’t right. And don’t even get me started on Mr. Zachary Levi. Zach has the rare ability to pull off adorkable and down right sexiness all in the same scene. You can see why he’s the latest additon to my TV boyfriend list. And the best thing about Zach is how super sweet he is. We had a few minutes to chat later in the night and I was completely smitten. I’m not sure where the line is between Chuck Bartowski and Zachary Levi but I’m fine with either…or both.
CHUCK will be back in the Fall with all new episodes. I just got word directly from a source with the show that they are currently in production on the third episode of the season.
For those of you who need a CHUCK fix then be sure to keep your eyes out for the all new CHUCK comic book, and if you’re really lucky you can be there for the CHUCK panel at Comic Con next month.
If you wanted to check out CHUCK last season and didn’t get the chance, it’s not too late. Get caught up during the summer with free episodes on Hulu.com. And if you can’t, no worries. You can jump right with the second season premiere and I promise you can catch on and catch up quickly.
Already a fan of CHUCK? Leave a comment and show the love…convince those on the fence that this is a show worth checking out.
Meanwhile, I’m off to see if I can get myself involved in an international drama in the hopes that Chuck, Sarah and Casey can come and save me.

Aww. Love the pics! You all look great! I can’t wait for Chuck to come back in the fall. Thanks for passing on what little of Chuck there is to share right now.
I can’t wait for Chuck to return in the fall. It was definitely one of my favorite new shows last year and I’m so glad the strike didn’t kill it. Zachary Levi is so adorable, and the whole Chuck cast just seem really down-to-earth in all their interviews.
Definitely do catch up this summer (in fact, I may have to re-watch them just to catch up for the fall — and to entertain myself since good summer TV is scarce).
I LOVE Chuck! It is a great show!
Love the pic, Kath! You sure are one lucky lady to have met Josh AND these two hotties! Wow. I was absolutely smitten with both Chuck and Pushing Daisies this past TV season, and both shows currently top my list of faves. I just finished a rewatch of Chuck (thanks to my trusty VCR and VHS tapes!), and am convinced I love the show even more now. I especially loved the two part finales that included little bits with the cast!
Were any other members of the cast at this event? Sarah Lancaster, Ryan McPartlin, Joshua Gomez, or Lester and Jeff? (Sorry, I can’t recall their real names right now). I think this would be an awesome cast to hang out with, as Zach seems like a sweet guy in real life, and Yvonne seems really darling too … and gorgeous!
I LOVE YOU, YVONNE!!!!!!!!!
I love Chuck and Sarah!!! I so envy you!!!
