• Can Twitter and Subway save Chuck?

Josh Schwartz, co-creator of NBC's "Chuck," is hoping that the show's small but loyal audience can keep the sci-fi/romantic dramedy alive for a third season. The show, which has garnered lots of critical praise, has not seen that translate into ratings success.

In an interview at the National Association of Broadcasters convention in Las Vegas, Schwartz said he had a good meeting with NBC about "Chuck's" future, but he would not speculate on whether the show would survive. NBC, which is stripping Jay Leno across the 10 p.m. time period five nights a week, does not have a lot of real estate for shows like Schwartz's that are on the bubble.

The Finale and Footlong campaign implores fans to go to Subway before Monday's season (series?) finale, buy a $5 footlong sandwich and leave a note in the suggestion box. Why Subway? The restaurant chain is one of Chuck's main sponsors and was notably featured in a recent episode.
