She did, however, get to dance to a hilarious live performance by Jeffster:

In addition to the panels, there are always lots of interviews and press appearances at Comic-Con. Our lovely Yvonne gave a great interview to Kevin Pereira from G4’s Attack of the Show. I can never get enough of the Aussie Accent Awesomeness:

You can find more Comic-Con coverage, including tons of pictures in our forums.

If you were at the Con and have some pictures you’d like us to share, send them our way!

Okay, as you can tell I’m a little punch drunk at this point from crashing all weekend to move Strahotski.com to its new home, but that doesn’t mean we haven’t been keeping our eyes on Yvonne Strahovski!

WonderCon was yesterday in San Francisco, and the whole cast of Chuck was in attendance.  You can read a rundown of the panel by the moderater at BuzzSugar.com.

It sounds like it all went swimmingly.

We’re also happy to have added 6 new images to a new WonderCon gallery, courtesy of reader Moreen who was able to attend the event.  Special thanks for those!

Also, don’t miss the massive WonderCon thread going on in our forums.  Everyone’s talking about what may be coming up in the season.

If you were able to attend WonderCon and have pictures to share, be sure to send them our way!

Enjoy!

(I promise — the NYCC avalanche of pics & news is almost over — just in time for Chuck Vs. the Suburbs next week!)

This one isn’t too fancy, but it captures some of Yvonne’s cuter facial expressions of the panel.  And, of course, there was no way to keep Strahotski Bear out of the shots.

You can check out the Wallpapers Page for various resolutions for your desktop pleasure.

If you have any works of art involving Yvonne Strahovski, send it to us at submissions@strahotski.com!

Enjoy!

After she caught it Fedak caught it and gave it to her, she showed it to Josh Schwartz and these pictures capture that moment.  Yet again, it’s good to see an angle that I couldn’t see and an exchange that I was too freaked out to take in!

Also, I haven’t had an opportunity to mention it elsewhere given all the Yvonne news, but Josh Schwartz and Chris Fedak were also awesome, funny dudes.  Chuck (and by extension the career of our favorite girl) is in good hands.

There will probably be more NYCC photos trickling in over the next few days.  Hope you guys don’t mind.

Enjoy!

And if you’ve been in our forums, we’ve talked circles about all of the juicy information about Chuck from the panel.

But the one thing I feel like I haven’t really conveyed are my impressions of Ms. Strahovski from the NYC Comic Con Panel.

First off, I want to say that I’m incredibly grateful to Yvonne for how perfectly gracious she was to not only me, but all the fans who attended the panel.

She was a real trooper, and she took everything in stride.  She is clearly a first-class lady.

I know that I’m not a complete weirdo, but she doesn’t know that and for her to give me (and the rest of her fans) the benefit of the doubt shows a real solid side of her personality that shows how grounded she really is.

Unlike on Chuck, Ms. Strahovski had the opportunity to smile a lot at the panel, and her smile is absolutely infectious.  I’m not just talking about beauty here, but just the ability to draw people in with that smile.

Also, I can’t explain enough how radiant Yvonne is.  And again, I’m not just talking about beauty.  She sparkles; she lights up the room.  It is hard to not just stare at her because she is just that kind of star.

But all of that aside, the best impression I got of Yvonne is that she’s just a person.  A normal, fun-loving person who cares about her fans and is extremely gung-ho about her work.

We may all know that she is far more beautiful than most human beings, but I’m not sure she knows that — and perhaps that is what makes her most beautiful of all.

Yvonne Strahovski seems to be having a ball being a star, and I for one think she deserves all of the glory and happiness that this life can give her.  I hope she becomes a mainstay of Hollywood for decades to come.

Being totally freaked out at the time, I enjoyed watching this.  I noticed I got a thumbs up from Chris Fedak!  Awesome.

I can’t believe I actually made that throw.  It was a good catch by Fedak as well.  The bear didn’t have a lot of heft to it, so I was scared it wouldn’t make it.

After having read some of the relatively negative takes on the ‘crazy’ fans at the panel, I was relieved to watch this back and see that it looked like a fun exchange to me.

There were no signings, so I didn’t have the opportunity to literally meet Yvonne, but giving her the bear was just as sweet of a reward.  I tried to be respectful and keep my distance; after all I don’t want her to think me the looney.

Just got back from a grueling weekend of New York City and I have lots of other thoughts to post, but I figured that if I didn’t get these pics up tonight someone would put a mark out on me.  And that would be bad.

So here we have 35 new pictures in the New York Comic Con Gallery.  They were all pain-stakingly taken by me with my little camera from the fourth row.  I took out the particularly bad ones for both your and Yvonne’s sake.

There are tons of pics floating around I’m sure, so I don’t know if I bring anything new to the table.

But my pictures are all about Yvonne (and Strahotski Bear as you’ll see).  I think I heard Chris Fedak and Josh Schwartz were there too, but there was this blinding light blocking them from my view. /shrug

Enjoy!

Lykaon woke me up at a painstaking 6am to make sure I was ready for the big day.  We then headed down to Port Imperial to catch the Ferry.

We got to the convention center at 8am and were saddened to learn that we weren’t allowed to wait in line specifically for Yvonne until 10am.

So we sat.  And sat.  And along the way we met a very nice professional photographer, and a couple of Strahotski.com readers, Carastille and Reen426.

The time finally arrived and we got a seat in the fourth row; plenty close to Yvonne.

After a Chuck recap, she came in and wow.  I know I’m just a bear, and partial to the bear ladies, but Yvonne was stunning.  I didn’t know humans could be that pretty!

I was really nervous.  What if she didn’t like me?  What if she had another bear in her life?

The Q&A session started and Lykaon jerked me up (with little a care for my well-being).  Second in line.  This was going to be good.

Lykaon got the mic and started by introducing himself as the webmaster of the site.  Yvonne said, “WoW.”  (Lykaon tells me there is audio that he’ll put up on the site later.)

He offered me up to her and there was a few moments of confusion, since no one knew the protocol for delivering a bear to a pretty lady.

Finally, the witty Chris Fedak had the answer — “Throw it!”

And there I was hurdling through the air until Mr. Fedak finally caught me.  And then he handed me over and I was face to face with Yvonne.  I had finally made it home.

Later in the panel someone asked her who her craziest fan was and she held me up stating, “Probably the guy who made this site!”  (She’s right, he is pretty crazy.)

This will be my last blog for Strahotski.com since I have a big life ahead of me now with Yvonne.  Thanks for all of the support!

Lykaon says that when he gets home to real internet he will provide even more info and lots more pictures of both me and Yvonne.  Look for it today or tomorrow!

Goodbye!  Wish me luck with Yvonne!

Mrs. Lykaon told me that my bow didn’t match my shirt and that if I was going to impress Ms. Yvonne Strahovski I would surely have to change it to a pink bow.  Pink bows aren’t very manly, but Mrs. Lykaon is a pretty lady too so she must know what the pretty ladies like.

After the 4 hour drive, Lykaon left me in the hotel room while he went out on the town.  He didn’t even leave me the password to his computer so I could blog!

It wasn’t all for nought, though.  Lykaon and Mrs. Lykaon took the NBC Studio Tour.  No sightings of Yvonne there, but they did pick up some official Chuck gear.  (And they saw a few of the SNL cast which was a bonus)

It’s only one more day until I finally get to meet Ms. Strahovski.  At least I hope I get to meet her.  Not only is she a lot prettier than Lykaon, but I think she’s got to be nicer.  They made me sleep on the couch last night with only a Strahotski.com t-shirt to cover up with!

I’ll keep you updated.  I’ll make sure Lykaon takes his camera and voice recorder to the panel so that we can get maximum Yvonne coverage.

It all started when Lykaon custom ordered me from the Strahotski.com store.  It was a rough trip in a plastic bag for a few days, but I finally found my way to him.

Apparently, I’m to get a new owner in the next few days.  I’m very excited to meet Yvonne Strahovski, but if I am unable to meet her I guess I will have to live with Lykaon a while longer.

Since Lykaon is so very busy, I thought I would chronicle our trip to New York City to see Ms. Strahovski at the New York Comic Con.

Will we get to meet her?  Or ask her a question?

We just don’t know right now, but if all goes well I will find myself staying with Yvonne.  Wish us luck!
