Only two more weeks until Chuck returns to our TVs. Can you make it that long? How about some spoilers to tide you over until then? Because spoilers make everything better, don't they?

Thanks to Entertainment Weekly's "Inside TV" blog, there are some good spoilers to be had. The blog got the scoop from one of Chuck's co-creators, Chris Fedak. And he answered a whole pile of questions. In the nature of spoilers, however, most of the answers do nothing but bring up more questions. Cue the return of anxious anticipation.

So what can we expect from Chuck in 2011?

Baby Stuff
  • The world's most Awesome baby will appear in or around episode 13 (yes, it's a quick pregnancy -- can you blame them in a show always on the verge of cancellation?).
  • The actual name of Baby Awesome will be the subject of debate amongst many of the characters.
  • Ellie and Awesome will be facing sleep deprivation and poop (officially this is a spoiler, not a "well, duh").

Guest Star Stuff
  • Football player Matthew Willig will appear as a character called Yuri in episode 13, but Willig will not be the same Yuri he played back in season 1's "Chuck vs. the Tango." Instead, he's a different Yuri -- Yuri the Gobbler.
  • John Larroquette's character of Roan Montgomery, the super-smooth lady-killer of a spy, will return for the episode "Chuck vs. the Seduction Impossible" (episode 14). He will help take down an army of female, Moroccan mercenaries. Of course.
  • Carina (played by Mini Anden), the hot DEA agent/Sarah frenemy/fake stripper/object of occasional Morgan lust, will return for episode 15, "Chuck vs. the Cat Squad." The Cat Squad of the title is apparently a **Charlie's Angels-esque group of superspy women.

Buy More Stuff
  • There's going to be more Jeffster! Although apparently the music heard on the show will be only a small portion of what might someday be available (like on the DVD).
  • The Buy More has more secrets. Whatever that means.

Spy and Chuck/Sarah Stuff
  • There will be more Sarah backstory toward the end of the season.
  • Will that backstory be an issue for the Chuck-Sarah relationship? Without giving away anything at all, Chris Fedak implied that there might be some bumps in the way of the seemingly imminent proposal.
  • Volkoff and/or Volkoff-related plots will be back. Also scary.

That totally isn't satisfying, is it? Sorry, but fortunately Chuck will return soon! And then all questions will be answered. Eventually. Maybe.

What are you looking forward to from Chuck in 2011? Let us know in the comments!
