Tungsten, one of the users from our forums, has put together a snazzy interactive fan map. Each pin on the map represents a fan that has asked to be added to the map. You too can get added, and see additional stats by visiting the map’s forum thread.
Edit: If you leave your city or region as well as country in the thread, Tungsten can place the pin without putting it in the center of the country.
Lykaon and I like the map so much, we’ve decided to give it a permanent home on the main site. So, to see updates to the map as more people are added, you can visit it on it’s new page.
Yvonne Strahovski was on the Bonnie Hunt show today and she gave an absolutely wonderful interview. Yvonne has really become extremely comfortable in front of the camera over the past couple of years.
The stories she tells in this interview are especially adorable, which made for some great screen captures. She does like to talk with her hands! Watch out if you’re near her during an exciting story.
I didn’t put the video on YouTube because a fellow fan beat me to it, but I’ve embedded it below.
I hope Yvonne keeps doing interviews because soon it won’t be Chuck fans that adore her — but the entire world. She can win anyone’s heart with anecdotes like hers.
Enjoy!
(Sorry that the lightbox clips behind the video frame. I couldn’t figure out how to fix that. If you scroll down the page the video won’t go with you, but the lightbox will and you can get a better view of the image. Or just use the gallery.)
A fan sent me a link to a video that has made its way to YouTube of the bear exchange. You can hear me in the background.
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.
It may seem that Strahotski.com has taken a little vacation from news since the last episode of Chuck.
And it’s true that I use the lull in Yvonne Strahovski screen time to take a breather from screen capturing and review writing, but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing happening.
If you haven’t been hanging out in our forums, then you’ve been missing out on some juicy stuff!
Besides awesome conversation, and what has turned into a great community, you’ll find tons of pictures from various sources, previews of upcoming Chuck episodes, and even a Fan Map, plotting Yvonne Strahovski fans across the globe.
Here are some links to some of the exciting threads going on these days:
Trivia Challenge (See if you can answer trivia questions from fans)
3-D Chuck (Have your glasses yet? This thread can help!)
G’Day Gala (Pics of Yvonne Strahovski at the event)
Set Shots (Some candid shots of our favorite girl)
That’s just the tip of the iceberg. There are tons of links to pictures that can be found in those threads, most of which aren’t hosted in our main gallery.
In addition, we’ve promoted long time readers Devon and Scott to moderators on the forums.
Congratulations to them, and a big thanks to all of the Strahotski Forums participants. You’ve kept Yvonne Strahovski in sight during the long dark hiatus.
So stop on by our forums for a look around, and if you’re feeling chatty, register and post. We love new fans on the Strahotski Forums!
It’s that time of year again, both to be with friends and family, and to battle for the last parking space at the mall in pursuit of the perfect present. I wanted to take a moment to point out a few things you can buy from the comfort of your own computer. And best of all, they’re guaranteed to please the Yvonne Strahovski fans in your life!
