Good morning and welcome to your Tuesday morning television briefing. I stayed in last night with the wife and watched the first three hilarious and fun episodes of Season Two of Chuck . (More on that before the season launches.) And just a reminder: don't forget to tune in tonight to FOX's series premiere of Fringe , from J.J. Abrams, Roberto Orci, and Alex Kurtzman! Chuck has scored yet another guest star. Gary Cole ( Desperate Housewives ) will join the cast in an episode slated for November sweeps as the con man father of Sarah Walker (Yvonne Strahovski), which means that we'll finally get some answers about Sarah's mysterious past and her true identity. (I can't wait!) After seeing how well guest star John Larroquette was used in Chuck 's second episode of the upcoming season (really, the three eps are brilliant), I have complete faith in Josh Schwartz and Chris Fedak to put Cole to good use.
