Fans Campaign to "Save 'Chuck'"

According to CNN, fans of NBC's "Chuck" are on a mission to save the show from cancellation. Using blogs, tweets and Faceboook pages, fans are following the lead of similar campaigns enlisted in the past to resurrect shows such as "Jericho" and "Roswell."

"Chuck" stars Zachary Levi as Chuck Bartowski, a computer geek-turned-unlikely government secret agent, and the colorful characters he meets along the way. While the show's co-creator, Josh Schwartz, said he is blown away by the overwhelming support, he is not surprised by the way fans are leveraging social networking sites to get the word out.

"This show is by geeks, about geeks and for geeks, so who better to know how to adapt to emerging technologies," Schwartz says.

Fans took to Twitter to show their love for the show:
