First airing on NBC on September 24, 2007, spy-comedy TV show Chuck became something of an instant favorite amongst its viewers, with its passionate fanbase keeping the series afloat for much of its run. The series sees mild-mannered tech advisor Chuck Bartowski thrown headfirst into a world of government secrets and deadly missions when he accidentally uploads a top-secret supercomputer to his brain.

With every single one of its 91 episodes earning a 7.7 or above on IMDb, it goes without saying that the show was widely loved – and here are its ten very best episodes, ranked according to IMDb.

10 “Chuck Versus the Beard” – 9.2

The close relationship between Chuck and Morgan took something of a back seat as the show progressed into its second and third seasons. “Chuck Versus the Beard” finally saw Morgan discover his best friend’s secret, bringing him back into the fold in a hugely satisfying way.

With Sarah and Casey off chasing a lead of their own, Chuck is left at the mercy of some nefarious Ring agents, as Morgan gets himself tied up in the resulting interrogation.

9 “Chuck Versus the Dream Job” – 9.2

The nineteenth episode of Chuck’s stellar second season, “Chuck Versus the Dream Job” not only brings Chuck’s long-lost father, Stephen, back into the mix, but also sets up one of the show’s biggest bads in Chevy Chase’s evil Ted Roark.

7 “Chuck Versus the Goodbye” – 9.3
