Is the entire episode in 3D? Where do I get glasses? ---

I believe so. The glasses were given out in various supermarkets as a promotion for Super Bowl XLIII. (They are special ColorCode™ glasses with yellow and blue lenses, so the standard red-and-blue glasses won’t work.) ---

The NBC website has a [list of places they are supposed to be available.](http://www.nbc.com/Chuck/about/news/) It depends where you are. If found mine at a CVS near my home, after trying another CVS and a Target. Good luck, and enjoy! ---

> [@mobo85](#): > > (They are special ColorCode™ glasses with yellow and blue lenses, so the standard red-and-blue glasses won’t work.) ☹ Wish I’d read that before I dug through my comic box for my old red-and-blue pair. Oh well. Guess I’ll be watching Chuck in 2-D. ---

My gf got some for the Super Bowl at a 7-11. ---

I’m pretty irritated at this damn 3D trend lately. I’m basically blind in my right eye, and my wife is completely blind in hers, so 3D projection is just a quick route to eyestrain-induced headachesville for both of us. Has anyone heard whether the episode will be available in 2D for the rest of us? ---

This new 3D process is supposed to kinder to those with no glasses, so you’ll be able to watch the same broadcast in 2D. ---

Incidentally, I started the commentary thread for the episode here: [Chuck (2/2/2009): "Chuck vs the Third Dimension" - Cafe Society - Straight Dope Message Board](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=504189). I guess no one expected an early Chuck thread. ---

> [@Terminus\_Est](#): > > This new 3D process is supposed to kinder to those with no glasses, so you’ll be able to watch the same broadcast in 2D. I suppose. After watching the SuperBowl 3D ads with the glasses, I rewound my TiVo and watched again without. They were mostly watchable, but there was a noticeable blue “halo” around everything and everyone, more prominent for the “closer” things. I am very confident in predicting that, once again, the 3D “craze” will not catch on. Wearing the glasses was rather annoying, even for a couple of minutes. I plan to try watching all of “Chuck” with the glasses, but no bets on whether I’m actually able to make it or not. ---

I saw the 3D ads twice, once with and one without. It’s not at all bad without the glasses, and quite frankly I don’t think I could take more than a couple of minutes of the 3D stuff. It’s quite a strain to watch. I plan on watching Chuck mostly without. ---

My grocery store was out of glasses ☹ I’ve been looking forward to the new episode of Chuck for so long too!
