Final series of Chuck

Have I missed this,or has it not been shown in the UK yet?

Re: Final series of Chuck

Not sure if it's aired yet but it'll be released on DVD in October.

Re: Final series of Chuck

I'm really annoyed about this :(

Virgin1 started showing it then Sky Living continued when they bought the channel but have dropped it for the last season. Where the hell is the logic in that? :eek::confused:

Re: Final series of Chuck

Sky Living HD has not got the rights to Season 5 of Chuck. The makers NBC has still to sell the rights to Season 5 to an UK Broadcaster.

Yes. That was my point. They should have bought the rights to S5 as it would have been the right thing to do for the show's fans.

Now I'm wondering if, say, "Nikita" (or any other of their US shows) might disappear before the end of it's run.

Re: Final series of Chuck

I misread your post - sorry.

Re: Final series of Chuck

It's looking like a trip down to HMV in October then.

Re: Final series of Chuck

Agreed. very bad of Sky to dump the show with only one season to go. 5* seem to be showing older seasons, so maybe they will pick it up?

A bit of topic, but anyone anoyed at the BBC for droping Damages after season 3, can watch season 4 on Netflix UK.

Sky have treated Nikita very badly and only started showing season 2 a few weeks ago. Season 2 is very good so far, so Sky had better get season 3.

I think the biggest worry with Sky is putting new US shows onto Atlantic. The sooner Sky get Atlantic added to Now TV, the better. Talk Talk have just done a deal with Sky to get a bunch of channels, but Atlantic is notable by not being one of them. Either the price was too high, or Sky want to keep it exclusive. Whichevever, not a good sign for Atlantic heading to VM.
