The theme of this week’s episode, “Chuck Versus the Wedding Planner,” was fathers and daughters. After Chuck (Zachary Levi) and Sarah (Yvonne Strahovski) get taken in a con by their wedding planner they turn to the best con man they know for help – Sarah’s father (Gary Cole). In the B-story episode Casey (Adam Baldwin) and his daughter Alex (Mekenna Melvin) decide to tell her mother (Clare Carey) he’s still alive. We also get a short sequence with Awesome (Ryan McPartlin) and his baby daughter. What’s surprising, in a story about fathers and daughters, is we don’t get any movement on Ellie’s (Sarah Lancaster) investigation into her father’s work.

White Collar – Under the Radar

  • Title: White Collar – Under the Radar
  • wiki: link

Since it’s beginning White Collar has delivered strong cliffhangers at every mid-season and season finale. The final episode of Season Two is no exception. True, it might not be as memorable as Peter Burke (Tim DeKay) confronting Kate (Alexandra Daddario), the plane explosion, or Mozzie (Willie Garson) getting shot, but the ramifications of Burke and Neal Caffery’s (Matthew Bomer) blow-up (along with that final moment in the warehouse) look like they could play out for quite awhile.

“Under the Radar” finally puts Neal in front of the man (Andrew McCarthy) responsible for Kate’s death and reveals what he’s been looking for all this time. It also includes two returning guest-star love interests for Neal in the old friend gone missing (Gloria Votsis) and, perhaps, the next woman in Neal’s life (Hilarie Burton).
