Yvonne on Twitter?

Reports are coming in that Yvonne Strahovski has finally caved to both fan and peer pressure. As of June 2nd, user @Y_Strahovski has shown up on twitter. So far there are only two posts:

June 2nd: Hi everyone!

June 5th: This is it. I finally did it. This is me, the real Yvonne Strahovski and I have joined twitter. Now, how do I use this thing? :)

I was hesitant at first, but it looks like Adam Baldwin has stepped in to vouch for the new Twitter user:

June 5th: Welcome Aboard! | RT @Y_Strahovski”This is me, the real Yvonne Strahovski and I have joined twitter…” | I promise it’s really her!

Adam Baldwin’s word is good enough for me.  He’s about as upstanding of a fella as Hollywood’s got.

I’m pretty excited! I hope that everyone on Twitter treats her with the same respect and grace that we try to treat her with here at Strahotski.com.

So go follow Yvonne.  She already had almost 2000 followers, but I think we can do better than that.  Strahotski.com readers unite!

Happy Halloween!

When reader and avid forum-goer Radi8n asked her daughter what she wanted to be for Halloween, she didn’t hesitate — Sarah Walker!

sarah-walker-halloweenLofty dreams indeed, but a good parent lives to make their kids’ dreams come true and this was no exception.

A little bit of shopping around, and a plastic throwing knife later, out came a pint-sized Sarah Walker.

I’m told that she enjoys throwing her knife around just like our favorite agent, but no word on whether she can make a mean frozen yogurt.

I don’t know if mini-Sarah has any older brothers but if she does, they should be afraid — very afraid.

Did Yvonne Strahovski or Chuck inspire you to make a cool Halloween costume?  If so, send pics our way at submissions@strahotski.com.

Missing Yvonne

I know I haven’t updated in a while, but there really hasn’t been a lot of news.  The folks on the forums are keeping everyone well updated with random appearances and Chuck discussion.

Though we don’t receive permission to put all photos in our official gallery, the forums keep’em coming in the New Pictures thread.  Be sure to check that out if you’re not a forum regular.

It may be a cold dark time for those of us jonesing for some Yvonne Strahovski, but with Chuck Season 3 filming underway and a few side projects of Ms. Strahovski on the way there’s sure to be a light at the end of the tunnel.

The most immediate thing to watch out for is Yvonne in a small film called The Canyon.  We’ve mentioned in before on the site, but Amazon has it listed finally with a current release date of November 17.

Some of you may also remember that Yvonne has provided her voice and face to Mass Effect 2, due out on all the major consoles in January.  The resemblance is certainly uncanny.

You can also get some Yvonne when Chuck Season 2 hits DVD and Blu-ray.  The release date hasn’t been finalized yet, but we can probably expect it a couple of weeks before the start of Season 3 in March.

Other than that, we sit and wait.  There’s always stuff to discuss in the forums, whether Yvonne Strahovski related or not.  And, of course, the gallery never gets old — full of beauty with over 2,000 photos.

I miss Yvonne!  How ’bout you guys?

Happy Birthday, Yvonne!

July 30 is a momentous day in history. It was this day only a few decades ago (we won’t discuss a lady’s age), when Yvonne Strahovski was born Maroubra, Sydney in the country of Australia.

These days she wows us as Sarah Walker in Chuck, along with a few other roles coming our way before too long.

Strahotski.com doesn’t have a lot to offer Ms. Strahovski in the way of gifts, but we do recognize this special day. Though it may not be special for everyone in the world, it means something for a fan-site dedicated to Yvonne’s career.

On behalf of Rob, Devon, Scott, myself and all of the loyal fans of Ms. Strahovski, we wish Yvonne a very happy birthday! Here’s to hoping we’ll be celebrating her successful career for many years to come.

(This may seem early, but it is already the 30th in Australia, so her birthday has technically already arrived)

Be sure to leave a comment expressing your birthday wishes for Ms. Strahovski!

Double A Paper

We usually only get to see Yvonne Strahovski kickin’ butt as Sarah Walker, but a reader has emailed in this awesome video of Yvonne in a paper commercial from Australia.

Looks like she started practicing her action moves long before Chuck and Sarah Walker! They totally need to recreate that scene at the Buy More.

It may just be a paper commercial, but Yvonne Strahovski’s classic facial expressions are well-suited for the ad.

Yvonne’s presence aside, that’s a really clever paper commercial. That’s Super Bowl level laughs in my opinion!
